2025 check-in, how we doin?
@TheeMrFOX heyyyy. I'm good. Just super busy BUT have some inspiration. Don't wanna promise anything yet but I'm hoping to start writing again! Glad you're still around! :))) I open the app somewhat frequently now though I don't really do anything lol
Hi! How have you been?
@Gigi_washere heyyy. Sorry for the late response. I'm barely on here now. I'm doing alright! :))
Hey I was just wondering, do you have like a Twitter or Instagram? Or better yet a discord channel? I love your writing and sometimes I get a little anxious because I’ve seen so many writers go dark for various reason and would love to have another way to connect other than Wattpad (which has been really iffy and concerning with their decisions for the whole thing).
@TheeMrFOX Hey. Thanks for asking. I don't quite have any other social media specifically for writing as of right now. I've actually been thinking of making one for a long time but I just didn't really know what I'd even do with the accounts if I made any. I'm warming up to the idea but I'm still not too sure how I want to go about it. It's just unfortunate because I finally got a job but it requires me to work 6 days a week (some days starting at 9am and finishing at 10-ish pm) which means I don't have time for much of anything at all. I want to get back to writing, I really do, but it's a busy season for my work at the moment, so I can't really write at all until it dies down, which will be around September. As you can tell even if I had other social media, I wouldn't be able to do much with it until my work hours die down. I'll definitely let you know when I do make one tho. I just have to figure out which platform would be the best. Thanks again and don't worry. I'll definitely still be around. Tho probably not for the next month. :)
Thinking of finally getting back to reviewing books again. Maybe letting everyone know will be the push I need to write the next one. :/
It's probably bad timing because I'm gonna get super busy soon, but I don't think I can ignore the nagging voice at the back of my mind anymore. Maybe writing again will get me out of my slump. Idk.
I at least want to finish the next review since I finished reading the book but we'll have to see if I can continue afterwards. Gonna sleep on it for now and maybe I'll refresh my memory and reread the book tomorrow.

Hello Raya! We would love for you to join our 2023 Nano Watt Season a mini version of the Wattys . We have 1000 slots available across 10 categories. Submission close May 10. Head over to our profile for more details.
The Nano Watt,
Crowning Excellence!
@TheNanoWatt hey there! Thanks for the invitation but I don't have any books right now that I believe qualifies for the contest. The only completed book is something I have been thinking of rewriting and is not exactly completed the way it is. Hopefully I will have a story that qualifies in the years to come, which I'll be interested to participate. Thanks again! :D
Hello there! I just found your book and I enjoy reading it. Do you have instagram or facebook? I would love to follow your social media if you don't mind, thanks!
@heythere1312 Hey, thanks so much for the support! Unfortunately, I don't really have any social media connected to my writing (and my personal is only used to connect with friends and family so it has my full details that I'd rather not share to the public). I have been considering making one but I'm not sure what I'd even do with it. Even so, I'll definitely let you know if I ever get around to making one. Thanks again for your interest and have a nice day! :)
Not officially back on Wattpad, but I do have a small treat for those of you waiting for a new chapter. Be sure to read the author's note for minor updates on my writing.
Sitting down to write has been tough. Sometimes, or rather almost all the time, I stare at a blank screen for more than an hour and nothing comes to mind. Editing might be easier and I'm working on getting the next chapter of In the Open Cage out soon after PH | TOL.
Anyway, I've finished a chapter and was bothered by not uploading it when everyone is waiting so it should be up now. I'm still thinking I should wait until I have a decent chunk for a more consistent schedule but that might not be happening for a while. I'm biting the dust and tentatively uploading what I have. Sorry for the wait again. Everything's all so hectic right now. :/
It’s totally fine! We’ve waited this long, we can endure a little more as you try to regain your inspiration.
@dark_affinity Take your time, we'll be here, waiting till you find the time and motivation. Take care and make sure to take breaks and de-stress when needed! <3
@dark_affinity Delighted that there's a new chapter In the Open Cage can't wait to read it . I was really getting into it hope your doing okay, hopefully you start getting inspired to write again I've read most of your books and really enjoyed them all. Take care of yourself and hopefully you'll be back to updating weekly if not more again . Just look after yourself first stay safe xx and I'll be watching out for more chapter's from you when your ready xx
Hey guys,
Sorry for the inactivity. I'm going through a huge change right now and have been too busy to write anything. I won't go into too much detail because it's personal, but my graduation is coming up and I need to start looking for a job. Also I'm preparing to move and I need to do a lot of paperwork for a visa, which is taking priority. I'll be busy until April but I'll see if I can find time to write here and there.
Sorry for the wait again. Things have just blown up at once.
@dark_affinity Hell yeah! Get through your big irl changes before coming back okay? Only write if you really have the time to. We can wait :D
@dark_affinity Take your time do what is most important for you right now your readers will still be there when you get back stay safe and I hope everything works out for you
Thinking of updating a Phantom Hunters chapter soon. I'm undecided between this week Thursday and Saturday. Whichever day it is, that'll be what I stick with for weekly updates (IF it even becomes regular; might end up skipping weeks bc of writer's block or smth).
So, at least for the next few weeks, do you guys prefer Thursday updates or Saturdays? Let me know. I quite like how the next few chapters turned out, so I'm confident enough to update at least what I have. Can't wait to share! :)
Updates on Phantom Hunters | The Obsidian League:
Hi all.
So, uh, this is a bit embarrassing, but I completely forgot the entire plot of my book and was only reminded of it when I read my description to have a better idea of where to take the story.
The chapters, well, Chapter 12 (the next one to be uploaded) would have completely derailed the story away from the initial storyline promised in the blurb, so I need to rewrite it and add a few more chapters between it and the current Chapter 13 (which actually fits the narrative with a few tweaks but needs to be pushed a little further away).
This kind of messed up my schedule, so it might take a little bit longer than promised to update the book. So sorry about that but hopefully the new awaiting chapters will make up for it. >.<
Anyway, thanks again for the support. I'm off to fix my mess now heh.
@Stormtider135 Haha ye...I got sidetracked with a secondary plot and that almost ended up becoming the main one. It turns out I have to cut it out completely because there's already way too much going on lol
@dark_affinity The fact that the author forgot their own plot is hilarious. No worries, take your time. We’ve waited this long, we can wait a few more weeks for you to clean your mess XD
