Chapter One of Spring's Last Hope has been republished with the rewrite, new title, new ending banner. Trying to really streamline the beginning  so that the flow works. https://www.wattpad.com/story/333538831-spring%27s-last-hope

I want to apologize to all my followers, those who read my stories and book club members. I thought I’d update everyone on what’s been going on. 
          
          My life is currently very stressful. In July my husband was laid off and has not been able to find a job. My focus on writing and reading has been shot in the foot several times. We are just in survival mode. 
          
          While all this was happening I ended up injuring myself and then got sick. I’m better now but everything still sucks. 
          
          I’m still trying to write. I am still working on my books. Im not abandoning anything. I’m trying to read, to get back into everything and focus but it’s hard. 
          
          So bare with me while I try to navigate this life crisis. Thank you.

@JessicaPowell481 I'm so sorry to hear what you're going through. You've just got to focus on yourself and your family, the writing and reading will come back when you're settled again. I really hope things improve for you. Sending good vibes and hugs <3 <3

@JessicaPowell481 My situation is nowhere close to what you're dealing currently dealing with, but I wanted to express solidarity as I can't neccesarily write either. The move I'm currently in the process of was for financial reasons, so in some ways you're not alone. 
            
            I do hope things improve for you soon, let's struggle on until things get better.

I won’t be able to submit my story to the wattys. Ended up injuring myself pretty bad and wasn’t able to type for a week and really derailed my motivation. I’m slowly getting back into it. 
          
          I’m planning on updating Spring’s Last Hope with its new cover and the chapters I have written today. But chapters 7-15 will be unpublished until I can update them. This is to prevent confusion. 
          
          I’m sorry for the delays.

          I want to get Spring at least squared away before I continue. I have chapters 11-15 already written so when I feel confident in my ability to continue both book updates will resume either weekly or bi weekly.

@JessicaPowell481 I hope you're feeling somewhat better at least.

The writing is coming along smoothly. I’m finally getting an outline down for Spring’s Last Hope and I will hopefully have everything re-written and updated for The Wattys! I’m going to be putting it forward as an ongoing story. Updates will hopefully resume every two weeks starting on August 7th! 
          
          Wish me luck.

spring's last hope combines a perfect cocktail of creativity, originality, consistency, and fluidity to complement the well-measured doses of romance, fantasy, and mystery which all serve to further strengthen the story. good writing, cover, plot, characters, imagery, and inclusion of magic realism. keep it up :)

I’m so mad and feel so bad. I messaged a person through the app and the messages that I send keep getting repeated over and over. This person is getting spammed by me and I have no control over it. I’ve submitted a report and it’s been escalated but it will not stop. 
          
          So if I message anyone in the future and this happens I apologize in advance. Hopefully wattpad fixes this quickly. 
          
          Has anyone else encountered this glitch?

I got over 100 notifications about someone following me. They came in batches, like 70 at once and then another 30 later in the day. Super weird! It did stop (at least I haven’t gotten that notification again for a couple of days now).

I’m not going to make the deadline. I wasted too much time. So sadly round 2 is as far as Spring’s Last Hope will go in ONC. 
          
          I’m going to continue writing and maybe hit the 50000 word count for the Wattys. I’m still having a lot of fun with the story, it’s just trying to make the deadline is causing me a lot of stress. 
          
          Next year though! I’ll plan better.
