Guys, I'm going to be honest and say that I don't know that I can really update anymore.  I've gotten so busy recently, and I don't know if I can keep up -I'm just not feeling it anymore, as I'm sure you can tell by my abnormal updates.  So, I'm going an an indefinite hiatus.  This might mean I never come back, this might mean I'll be back in two months.  I don't know when, if ever, but I do want to take the chance to firstly apologise for not finishing what I need to, apologise to you guys for leaving you with a cliffhanger, and to lastly, thank you all for reading my works up to this point.
          	
          	If I get any responses on this, I don't know that I'll reply to them.
          	
          	I'm sorry, and thank you.
          	
          	You've genuinely impacted my life in ways you couldn't understand.  <3

OK, I’ll leave this short.
          	  
          	  1. It’s alright. Take as much time as you need.
          	  2. Don’t force yourself to do anything that might cause you more stress than necessary.
          	  3. Take proper care of yourself.
          	  4. Take as much time as you need, seriously. 
          	  5. Hope everything turns out alright :)

I'm really sad this is coming to a possible end since it's my favourite Wattpad book, but at the same time I'm glad that you're taking a break and looking after yourself, that is much more important. I really hope you return but if you do, take your time and don't feel pressured to. <3

Heya!  I just wanted to say that I'm changing Bittersweet's update schedule.  Doing a chapter a week has become unmanageable with school, so I'm changing weekly updates to biweekly updates -or every other week.  If I get the chance to I'll still update weekly, but I can't guarantee it like I used to.  Another thing that is changing is that I am now updating on Sundays instead of Saturdays -or about 24 hours after I usually would on any given day.
          
          Sorry about the inconvenience!  ^^''

@dahlia8765 Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be able to make it this weekend -I do plan on next weekend, however.  Thank you so much for being patient though, it's much appreciated!  :3

          I would wait a little bit more since I've already made another announcement somewhat soon, but I can't postpone this much longer!  I'm writing a darker fic, but I need to know what is too dark for most people -although I might still include certain things for plot, I'm not certain yet.
          
          Regardless, thank you so much for your time!

@CarrieMadeleineGara OF COURSE!!! thank YOU for being so thoughtful :D

            But really though, thank you so much for continuously affirming that I don't need to rush aha ^^''  I just feel like I need to at least inform people because some people have grown to expect updates at certain times, but I really do appreciate your words immensely :3

Heya!  Nothing update-wise, so feel free to skip-
          
          So, those of you who are still reading, I have a challenge.  Your goal is to figure out what all the below text -inbetween the '**'s- says; no guesses past 00:00 ETC Oct. 4th, you have to send the full text to me in English, you should describe the steps you took.  Unlimited tries, but I can give no feedback.

          1st reply is link to text screenshot.
          
          To the first -and only the first- person who can figure out what it says, I'll write something that's about no more than 10,000 words of any character pairing -or any scenario in general- for any fandom they desire and send them a link upon the works completion -at most, hopefully a month after someone has won.  I know that this sounds really egotistical of me, and I'm sorry for that, but since this is going out to my followers, I figured that y'all like my writing enough to some extent to follow me, and that hopefully you'd enjoy my writing if you win.  And no, you don't have to be following me in order to try/win.
          
          If you have any questions, let me know!  I can't guarantee I can answer.
          
          Don't feel forced to do this, it won't be easy -at least I think aha ^^''

@Junedapineapple I'm sorry, I would give hints/clues but I need to see if people can solve it based on only what's given aha ^^''

Ok, really quick-
          
          1.  BS is going on a three week hiatus, I'll be back with Chapter 19 on July 3rd, 2021
          2.  I'm working on responding to comments on BS still for Chapter 17, I'll get there eventually
          3.  I'm going to switch the she/her pronouns to they/them pronouns on IJ, so if you want to save the story with she/her pronouns, I recommend you hop over to my AO3/Quotev and download the story from there.
          4.  When I switch the pronouns for IJ, I'm going to delete the OVAs as well.
          5.  Happy Pride Month!!  I know I'm quite late, but I always feel like I'm spamming y'all haha ^^''
          
          Thanks for reading if you made it through all that haha ^^''

CarrieMadeleineGara

4.  I'm not going to repost them at all, so they'll be removed completely ^^
