Hello everyone!! 
          	 
          	Since publishing the Character Introductions chapter for Mia, one thought has stayed with me—I didn’t give this first chapter the kind of introduction my debut book truly deserves.  
          	  
          	When I first wrote Mia back in 2019, it was one of the most personal, emotional, and healing experiences of my life. But when I uploaded it here, I was nervous. I rushed through the beginning, more focused on getting it out there than making it feel whole. In that rush, the first chapter didn’t get the heart it needed. 
          	 
          	Mia’s story is raw, vulnerable, and layered with emotion—much like my own—and I wanted that to come through from the very first page. So, I took a step back, breathed, and rewrote it. The chapter now goes deeper into who Mia is—her quiet strength, her pain, her loneliness, and the small spark of hope that begins to grow when someone finally sees her. I poured everything I had into this rewrite, and I hope it resonates with you in a deeper, more powerful way. 
          	 
          	If you’ve read it before, I’d love for you to revisit it. And if you’re discovering it for the first time, welcome. I’m so grateful you’re here. This story means the world to me, and I hope that somewhere in these pages, it means something to you, too. 
          	 
          	Thank you for supporting Mia—and for seeing her the way I do. 
          	 
          	With love and honesty, 
          	Catherin Bakaloff

Hello. cbakaloff!
          
          Good evening! Thank you so much for adding Resilience Hart to your reading list! I’m incredibly grateful for your support and thrilled that my story has caught your interest. Writing this debut novel has been a deeply personal and emotional experience and knowing you’re willing to embark on this journey with Viviene Hart and Regina Sinclair means the world to me.
          
          I hope their story of love, strength, and resilience resonates with you as much as it has with me. It’s filled with raw emotions, cliffhangers, and heartfelt moments that I’ve poured my heart into. Your time and trust in my writing are the greatest compliments I could ever receive.
          
          If you’d like to stay connected and get updates on my writing journey, I’d love for you to follow me on Instagram [@r151ng_ph03n1x] and here on Wattpad. Your support would mean so much!
          
          Wishing you all the joy, tears, and inspiration as you dive into Resilience Hart.

@RisingPhoenix311, your message gave me chills—in the best way. I can already tell how much heart you’ve poured into Viviene and Regina’s story, and that kind of emotional depth is exactly what draws me in as a reader. I’m genuinely honored to be along for the ride, and I have no doubt your words will leave a lasting mark. Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable, beautiful part of yourself. I’m so excited to continue this journey with you!!  <3

@RisingPhoenix311, Hello to yourself, too, Phoenix Rose!! 
              
            Thank you so much for your heartfelt message. I'm genuinely excited to dive into your book. From how you described it, I can already tell that Viviene and Regina’s journey will be extraordinary—raw, emotional, and deeply impactful. But what matters to me is the admiration and dedication of this message. That alone tells me what kind of writer you are. I can’t wait to experience the story you’ve created and all the rest you have planned in your brain.

Hello,
          
          I am an aspiring writer, and I have published a few of my works on my wall. I recently updated a chapter in my hit novel, Trinket.
          
          Please check out my work—I would be grateful! Here is the link to the chapter:

Hey everyone!! 
           
          As you may know, I’m currently publishing Prophecy, but I know many of you have been eagerly awaiting the next installment of a particular series of mine... With that in mind, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news—I’ve officially started writing Future [Book 3 of the Mia Series] and am currently editing the Prologue!! 
           
          In addition to Prophecy, I plan to publish my very first RWBY fanfiction, titled DAYBREAK... This means I’ll be juggling three projects at once—a massive undertaking—but I’m genuinely excited to dive into it all and rise to the challenge. 
           
          Here’s where things stand: I don’t have any finished chapters for Future or DAYBREAK beyond the Prologue just yet, but... I’d love to hear your thoughts. Would you like me to share those two chapters now, or would you prefer to wait until Prophecy is fully complete? 
           
          Keep in mind that, unlike Prophecy, I don’t have a set schedule for Future or DAYBREAK—both are works in progress, so chapters will be published as I finish them. 
           
          Your input means so much to me, so please let me know what you think—I can’t wait to hear from you!!  =)

@RisingPhoenix311, your response truly touched my heart. Thank you so much for your beautiful words and unwavering support—it means more than I can express. To know that Mia’s Diary resonated with you and that Future brought you joy is incredibly special to me. You saw the heart in it, and that alone makes every emotional scene and sleepless night worth it. 
             
            I’m so excited that you’re looking forward to what’s next. DAYBREAK has been a slower process with everything I’m juggling, but your encouragement is exactly the kind of fuel I need. Just knowing readers like you are out there—eager and patient—keeps me going.  
              
            Sending all my love and thanks right back your way. I’m honored to share these stories with you.  <3 
              
            With love,

@cbakaloff, your message truly made my day! I can feel the passion and dedication you pour into your stories, and it’s incredible to see how much love you have for your craft. Mia’s Diary was such a beautiful experience and knowing that Future brought you joy makes me even more excited for what’s ahead!
            
            I completely understand the juggling act of multiple projects, but trust me—your stories are absolutely worth the wait. Whenever you’re ready to share more of Future or DAYBREAK, I’ll be here, eager to dive in. Your talent and creativity shine so brightly, and I have no doubt that whatever comes next will be just as amazing.
            
            Thank you for your kindness and for sharing your worlds with us. I can’t wait to see what’s next!
            
            Love,

@RisingPhoenix311, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words—they truly mean a lot to me. I'm so glad you enjoyed Mia’s Diary, and hearing that Future has made your day completely made my day!! Knowing you're excited for what's to come gives me so much motivation. 
             
            I really appreciate your encouragement about publishing the Prologue for Future or DAYBREAK. I’ve been juggling a lot with these projects, but your support reminds me that it’s all worthwhile. I’ll be sure to keep you posted, and I can’t wait to share more when the time feels right. 
             
            Thank you for being so patient and encouraging—it means the world. Your excitement and belief in my stories inspire me more than you know. 
             
            Looking forward to sharing what’s next with you!!  =)
