i turned 24 today :') 
          	
          	my entire life, i was reminded over and over that i would probably never get here. i still wake up achy in every single one of my bones and some days still get so dull that i can't bring myself to get out of bed, but it's still a bit of a miracle that i am alive.
          	
          	i am fighting still.
          	
          	i am writing still.
          	
          	and if you're seeing this, you've contributed to the good side of my life in one way or the other, so thank you. 
          	
          	i hope we get to share stories for a very long time <3

hello, my loves <3 
          
          this is a lil update (me + my books) bec a lot of you seem to be worried about me since i'm not around much these days even to respond to comments :') 
          
          first of all: i'm okay! thank you so, so much for asking. you guys are lovely. my health is always rocky bec that's just a part of my life, but otherwise, i'm actually doing pretty good :D 
          
          i'm away so much bec work's been pretty crazy. i have a full-time job and i also pick up a lot of freelance work on the regular, so that doesn't leave much time for me to write things that i want to. the very little time that's left is spent on doing other stuff that i neglect bec of work. 
          
          but good news: i'm moving soon! with my family. that means i'll hopefully have a bit more time to myself with them around to take care of some other stuff :') but that also means that the pre-move process has been kicking my ass lol. there is always so much to do. 
          
          about my books: turns out a lot of you are Just now noticing that 'all of the above' was taken down. that was a long while ago! i suggested it to wren bec updating got impossible amid all the stuff that was going on back then so we decided that would be the best course of action. it WILL be back. it'll take a while, but we'll put it back up! 
          
          'where the skies are blue' just takes an absolutely insane amount of (very patient) research, and i can't half-ass it. i know only a couple people that follow me are actually reading it, but it's my favorite thing that i've ever written. you best believe i will continue it.
          
          and about 'trinkets', one of my resolutions this year is to finish the book before 2024 ends.
          
          none of my books are discontinued! no need to worry about that. if this changes, i'll let you guys know :) 
          
          thank you so much for everything <3 i hope you guys have been well x

@Vandalism1532 hi! wren and i decided to take it down because we hadn't updated the book in like... a year or so and it felt really sucky to just leave it like that :( it'll be back up at some point but i'm not sure when!
