hi guys!
          
          this may not come as a surprise to some of you, but i figured it’s time to finally address it. i’m not sure how many people follow me anymore, so this may fall on deaf ears so to speak, but i’d just like to say this for my own peace of mind. writing has always been my passion. for as long as i can remember, i’ve wanted to be a writer, and i’ve held onto the hope that one day i can make that dream come true. what with college applications being submitted and all that (stressful!!) stuff, i’ve started to realize how important that dream truly is to me.
          
          in thinking this, i’ve come to the decision to take down my most popular story. i’ve moved on from the things i used to write (five nights at freddy’s), and i guess you could say i don’t want those stories to be reflected in my future life choices. while i am proud of the work that i’ve created, it’s just something i find i’m not passionate about anymore. i initially began publishing that story when i was probably...13? and that’s...a long time ago. i’ve grown a lot since then, and i’ve always wanted to complete that story, but i think it’s time i get real with myself. it’s just not something i’m passionate about anymore. i’ve felt this way for a while, but i was always too scared to say something because i didn’t want to disappoint the people who had supported me from the beginning. and trust me - i appreciate every kind word you have sent me over the years more than i could ever say. it’s really been a life-changing experience being a part of this wonderful community.

in saying this, i’m not disappearing from this site! i’m only going to be publishing the stories that i’m proud of - my poems, short stories, and other works that have accumulated over the years. who knows what will happen one day, but i want the things i publish going forward to be stories that i am truly proud of. i’m so sorry if this is a disappointment to some people - my biggest struggle has always been the fear of disappointing those who have been with me from day one. but i just feel like it’s time for me to move on from that chapter of my life and start a new one, where i am passionate about the works that i’m publishing, and i hope everyone’s okay with that.
            
            if you actually read this, i apologize for it being so long. i just wanted to thoroughly explain my choice because it’s something that’s been weighing on my mind for a long time. thank you for your unfailing support and love, and i hope you know how much i truly love and value each and every one of you.
            
            love, v.

hi everyone!! i just put up the first couple segments of my poetry/short pieces book, and it’d mean a lot to me if you could check it out! this is really new for me (to be publishing anything besides fan-fiction) and i’m allowing myself to be vulnerable on a public platform, so please be gentle with me! it’s called “little poems” (title is definitely subject to change, haha) and i hope everyone enjoys it!
          
          love, v.

hello!! i’m just gonna put this out there: please read bear town by fredrik backman at some point in your life. it’s so beautiful and well-written, and i fell in love with the characters and the storyline. it’s such an incredible book and it’s a very eye-opening and realistic story!! it draws attention to a scary real-life issue that, unfortunately, is incredibly common in our society today. anyways, that’s all!! i hope everyone’s having a good day <3
