I created a tab on my discord (link in bio) that can be a safe place to share what we are struggling with. It doesnt have to be just writing. But in speaking with a few of my fellow writers, I realize that I am not the only one who is drowning in a sea of discouragement. I know, I know,  what do I have to be discouraged over?
          	But I think thats why it's important that I speak up about what Im going through. You could have 2 reads or you could have 2 million and still feel like a failure and miserable.
          	Anyone that knows me and my work, knows that I value the people in the circle that I have built. I try to involve you all as much as I can and make you feel like we are friends. Which is why I want to be honest when I am struggling. If this resonates with you then come say hello and read my first entry where I'm painfully vulnerable.

I think once I wrap up Sterling and Jackson's story somewhere around the end of June/beginning of July, I'm going to keep it at just the one story for a bit. (I'll still continue the story over on AuroraMoonstone as I dont pour much energy into that one)
          I'm feeling that I'm maybe too active on here and I'm throwing myself too much in people's faces and they are getting tired of it.
          In addition, keeping up with constant updates is stressing me out to the point where it's taken a physical toll on my body.
          It's also beginning to affect my mental health as well. I'm becoming too focused on numbers and why some chapters don't perform as well as others or why somebody stopped reading or doesn't comment much anymore. It's at the point where I feel sad and stressed all the time, especially on upload days. And this is not how I want to be. It's consuming me. 
          Sorry for the TMI but I'm not doing well and I dont want to pretend that I am.

New chapters are up! Spam me with all the comments. You have no idea how much feedback helps me. It motivates me and gets me excited to share my work to see reactions. It helps me better shape characters as well as catch potential plot holes before they occur. It also lets me gage if certain scenes and characters are coming off as intended or in need of a rework. But most importantly, it allows me to engage with my readers and get to know you all.

@myauraismoonstone oh geez i didn’t realize people were actually mad i thought this was a foreshadowing. i am so sorry you are going through this! you do not deserve it at all

@Weluvtaylor13 but I do want to add the disclaimer that I'm not referring to comments where people get outraged by characters actions. Its part of the immersion experience and I encourage. Feel your feelings over Jake being manipulative. Get mad at Matt for that dumb thing he said.
            More often than not, I wrote a scene a certain way because that was the emotion I was hoping to incite. 
            The only time I had people completely misunderstand my intentions was when addison kissed matt in defense. And even still, I take blame for that because that means I as the author failed to properly convey the scene for readers. So i do not begrudge anyone who got fired up over that. It was my mistake.

@Weluvtaylor13 When I revealed the concept for my sequel, I received backlash. People pleading with me not to have matt cheat on vanessa and others threatening to drop the book if I had that happened. I do realize I marketed the book to make it appear that way but whether matt actually cheated or not was beside the point. I felt pressured to deliver a story that would appease a certain audience and grew anxious when I thought maybe it wouldnt. 
            On my first book, I wanted matt to lose his virginity to Aimee but gave into the demands of it better being vanessa or they will quit the book.
            I had a vision that I felt passionate about. One that made sense to me because I knew the whole story and the narrative I was trying to tell. 
            So, I wanted to deliver a message that others should be encouraged to embrace their creativity and vision,  not be torn down for it.
            I'm fine with someone deciding the book isn't for them and quietly deciding to leave. But I don't want "support" to be used as a weapon to control my writing. 
            I've heard it way to many times "If this or that does or doesn't happen then Im out. Done. I quit." 
            
            So no more. I am the author and I'm telling my story the way I choose.
