finally watched the falcon and the winter solider series and bucky barnes... they will never make me hate you. bucky has always been and continues to be one of my favorite, most underrated characters in the mcu!❤️

Thanks so much for voting on We Ain't Ashes! ❤️ I'm so excited to be able to put more time into it now! X

Chapter 4 of Florence | A Thomas Shelby Short Story is out for you all to read (and hopefully) enjoy!❤️
          
          I am so proud of this chapter and the labor of love I poured into it. I poured everything I had into this entire story, but some chapters were more challenging to create than others. This one definitely pushed me and I am so proud of how it turned out!❤️

If you enjoy someone's writing, don't be afraid to let them know. If you love their work and their stories, don't hesitate to speak up. Even if you feel unsure how to go about it. Maybe you've never done so on here before or don't know if it would really mean anything, just know that any kind word, any small ounce of acknowledgement, even a simple emoji can make such a difference to the writers here. 
          
          I feel like this platform has become so silent over the years, the recent months especially. Whether its readers who leave no trace that they were there to read your story or other writers who were once interactive, now much more selective and distant. There used to be more connection, more supportive interaction in stories and a feeling of shared enjoyment through the reading and writing we love. But I feel its slipped over the years, becoming more quiet.
          
          Don't be afraid to tell an author you love, appreciate or admire their writing. Don't hesitate to comment along in the story, especially if a sentence or a line stands out to you. Don't doubt hitting that little voting star. Don't be afraid to connect and reach out to writers. 
          
          I promise you, it has more of an impact than you think.❤️

I've been struggling more this week, between being sick, higher pain levels and going through a harder bout with my mental health, I know I've been quiet on here recently.
          
          I'm hoping I'll feel a bit better each day and although next week looks to be another difficult one for me, I hope that I will not only be able to get through it, but am able to be a bit more active here soon.❤️
          
          (I won't have an update to share with you all this week, but I appreciate all of you who have continued to read my writing.❤️)

when you have so many ideas and inspiration for a new book that you're desperately yearning to start writing, but you have to contend with the physical and mental symptoms of a body that won't let you...
          
          I have definitely been missing my writing lately. (actively writing, not just updating) I've been missing sitting down and getting lost in the words that flow freely from my fingertips to the page. missing creating something that engulfs me whole. missing feeling that pull of pride and exhaustion and contentment on my heart. missing that creative place... my happy place.
          
          But I do want to say that I appreciate all of you who have continued to support my writing and my stories, who continue to encourage and motivate me, who leave such generous words of kindness that truly help me through my hard days. I value the support system I've found here very much!❤️

Chapter 3 of Florence | A Thomas Shelby Short Story is officially up for you all to read (and hopefully enjoy) this morning!!❤️
          
          Thank you again to everyone who has decided to come along on this writing journey and who has shown me and my writing so much support! Your kindness is deeply valued and appreciated!❤️

I was ready for a new theme and wanted to make it autumnal because I'm ready for the cozy season... what do we think? I think I like it!❤️

I just wanted to take a little moment to say thank you to everyone who has started reading my new, first full length, Thomas Shelby Short Story. I know we're only two chapters in, but I really am so grateful for every read, every kind and generous word of support, every bit of knowledge that someone out there is enjoying what I loved creating. Thank you so much and I can't wait to share the rest of this journey with you all!❤️

A brand new chapter of Florence is out for you all to read (and hopefully) enjoy!❤️
          
          I appreciate all of the love and support that this book has already been shown, it means the world and is so validating when it comes to everything I have poured into this project! A big, heartfelt thank you to everyone who has come along on this journey!❤️
