thought since its been a year id say hi and give a lil life update:
          
          I LIVE! i survived my final exams (woo) and am now a happily graduated gal on a gap year before i go to university :D
          
          I still stand by pretty much everything in my last post in terms, ie, no motivation for writing beyond 1-2 chapters, how i feel about my past works (reading y'alls comments despite these works being unfinished for YEARS really brightens my day tho :)), outgrowing wattpad etc.
          
          HOWEVER, despite my lack of motivation, i find myself slowly getting a bit more back into the whole otome-reincarnation-isekai genre???? (probably because all ive been doing these days is going to work, plaing acnh and then working out <3) and because i dont have the balls to post on ao3 (im sorry but it is sacred ground i refuse to post trash), i will be posting anything i DO write on either this or my second account @senecas_beard . i wont make any promises but im still hoping to get sorta back into writing so :)
          
          in terms of updating previous books, im still going to say no, they wont be updated. the humour doesnt amuse me anymore (it was my 13/14 year old self at its cringiest) and tbh i dont even know what direction i was going in. any writing i do nowadays (unless a rewrite) will be 100% new.
          
          YES, THIS IS ME REVEALING MY SECOND ACCOUNT FOR THE FIRST TIME. THAT THING HAS BEEN MY SECRET CHILD SINCE APRIL 2018 (aka when i was in my peak writing era) and if any of you have ever noticed any similarities congrats because it was me the whole time. 
          
          all in all, thank you all so much for the positivity you've consistently been giving throughout the years despite my inactivity. though i dont necessarily like my past stories, yalls comments continue to brighten my day and make me happy i wrote them :D

Hey! Uh, There's going to be a purge soon. If you write NSFW, incest, abuse, LBGTQ+ and underage and these type of things, I hope you move your books somewhere because....Well...The purge! It's going to happen because Wattpad has been bought by the South Korean Naver. It's bound to be a purge here, hope  you've saved your books. Do love yourbooks, pls save them somewhere

Wattpad and webtoon already addressed the situation

since i keep getting questions, heres a quick q&a:
          WHERE ARE YOU? ARE YOU DEAD? 
          nope, not dead, just a child struggling through their last year of school + balancing work + own mental things. for the most part I'm quite happy though :)
          
          WHAT HAPPENED TO UPDATING YOUR BOOKS?
          I've said this before but I no longer have that same motivation to write like I did, especially not full stories. Along with this, I just don't like the actual content of the books and find them incredibly cringe to go read back on. The plot holes, bad characters, the plot armour and other things I now find icky are too strong. Im grateful to everyone's whos stuck with me this far & reads and enjoys my books but Ive outgrown them and am no longer interested in that genre & those plots (I am now a family-fluff centric reader)
          
          WILL YOU EVER UPDATE?
          Most likely not- as said in my bio, just take my works as discontinued. Chances I will ever update my old books are extremely slim, pretty much close to none. I cannot remember for the life of me what those books are even about/my plans for them (I think I haven't updated quite a few in over 2 years now?). Along with this, I generally just don't like Wattpad anymore, even as a reading app 
          
          WILL THERE BE NEW BOOKS?
          Hella unlikely. I just don't find that same enjoyment in writing as I used to. Maybe one day???
          
          ANY OTHER WRITING ACCOUNTS E.G. ON AO3?
          Not that I want publicly available/have published anything on.
          
          CAN I PICK UP YOUR STORY?
          Sorry but no, I'm currently not letting people do that. If anybody finds a copy/continuation, it is NOT endorsed by me & I will type out an angry comment.
