Hi everyone. I uploaded the very first chapter of the continuation of James and Annie’s story. I can’t promise that I’ll be consistent with updates. I hope you enjoy.

Hi everybody.. unfortunately I don’t have good news for you all but I just wanted to pop in real quick to whoever’s still paying attention to my account.
          
          Just to be frank, I will not be returning to wattpad; and I wont finish my books on here. A little explanation: 
          
          When I first started reading stuff on here I was at my lowest point ever in life mentally, physically and on whatever other levels— I had no friends, I was unemployed, not going to school, nothing. Id sit in bed all day and read stuff on here until whichever side of my body i was laying on would go numb. Id come on here and make up imaginary worlds to escape this one. I am so happy to say I’m finally out of that dark place— things are going so well in my life right now. I genuinely haven’t felt this happy in maybe 6 years and even then I wasn’t that happy. I know none of you asked to hear this though, so I’ll quit rambling, but I would like to apologize from the bottom of my heart as I won’t be coming back. As for my books: that’s up to you guys. If anyone decides to make sequels to my books, go for it!!! Do what you will with my books.
          
          Best wishes to all of you , Layne

Now that first love is ended… I just have one question to see which of y’all are OG’s.
          
          What was the original name of the book?

Hi everybody! I’m SO sorry about my unannounced hiatus. Things have been pretty rough *cough.. seasonal depression..* and also finals week. Most of which I have to retake anyways, I’m on Christmas break now, thank the lord, so I’ll get some updates out (:

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask what you guys think of third person writing and if you prefer first person over it. I understand that some readers prefer 1st as they feel more connected to the story or like they’re the character in the story. I’m asking this because I might start doing 1st person alongside 3rd in some of my books but I want to know your thoughts

@soundslikegarden Theres nothing wrong with switching povs i think lmao, but if you dont know how to execute it well or make characters differentiable when changing povs then yeah it can get annoying

@Dr0wn1ng_1n_Bleach_ thanks for your feedback! I just never know if people get annoyed with alternating point of views. I might start doing that in my books though!

I think alternating between both 1st and 3rd is a good idea. Like you said, a reader can connect with the story or feel like they are in it, but its also good to view the story and characters from an outside perspective so you dont always view everything through one person's eyes
