Thank you guys so much for supporting Toxic even though it's so old and could be written with a better, more poetic plot! Just 6K away from 100k and that's insaneeeee!
          	So much love,

@NatalyCanez Thank you so much! If you're speaking of my fic covers, I only made the Fallen Stars one! If you're speaking of the ones in my IMGUR, thank you so much! Believe me, it takes time to learn! I'm sure if you practice and find a style that works for you, you'll do amazing :D and thank you for reading! It's so appreciated!  xxx

Hellooooooooooo!
          
          If you are not aware, I've posted a new story called Fallen Stars! It's a dystopian Harry fic, set in the close future, and the world is sh*t because of a disease outbreak :) I've posted 6 chapters thus far, and I update every week!
          I'd love to hear what you guys think about it, so leave a comment!

Hiiiiiii! 
          
          If you haven't seen already, I've posted my new (old and ongoing) fic called Fallen Stars! If you like dark and dystopian futures (really it's set in 2030) then this is the book for you! The world is turned to ruins since the outbreak of The Affliction, 19 years ago, and Harry Styles is new to Fort Hull, where Astrid lives with Niall Horan (aka kinda brother), Wilson Horan (kinda father) and more! Zayn Malik is the son of Fort Hulls leader, and intends to take Astrid as a bride if she likes it or not. 
          
          So I have 17 chapters already written (I've been writing this for about a year now) and still 10 more to go, but I will be updating once a week! 
          
          It would mean the world if you guys checked it out, dropped a vote and left a comment!

Hellooooooo, is anybody out therreeeeeeee???
          
          It's been about five months since I've posted something about updates, etc. 
          
          There are now 245 of you out there that this will be sent to, and maybe it'll say something you wanted to know or might break your hearts.
          
          1. I do make covers. Check my bio for the open or closed status. I will only be accepting a few at a time, and they have to meet the criteria listed below. Also, it's first come, first serve through PM's, not on here. And please, I ask that you consider my style before asking for something completely different because then no one will be happy, and we don't want that do we?
          
          Criteria: 1D fanfic (though the boy doesn't have to be on the cover), providing HQ picture of the people you want on the cover
          
          Not that hard, see? Right now, I'm accepting 1 more request!
          
          2. I've not really written anything for Turmoil in a while, but I AM writing a story called Fallen Stars! Right now, I'm posting on a different site and when it's finished, I'll post it here! I hope to have it done by the summer!
          
          3. I'm pretty active on tumblr (stylesmyth.tumblr.com) so if you follow me there, you'll get a lot of Harry and One Direction in general :D
          
          I hope you guys have had a wonder Christmas if you celebrate it, or just a great holiday in general :D See you in the New Year xx

Hey I saw you make covers? I want to make ones for myself, so I was wondering if you could give me some tips on how to make them? :)

@loadedgunlwt laptop, always laptop :p I don't think you can get photoshop on your phone, besides you laptop is bigger and details are easier to see :D
            You're very welcome, love xx

@loadedgunlwt Hiiiii! Well, first off, I'd say getting a good program to use is the first step. Try to stay away from online photo editing websites, but try something like GIMP or photoshop (I use PhotoShop CS6, which I'm sure you can find somewhere online)! Next, practiceeeeee. I've been making graphics for almost 3 years now, and I'm still trying new things and making bad stuff, so don't expect the cover to be absolutely perfect if it's your first time, but be ready to try again! If it is your first time (and I really don't like using this technique for covers unless I have to) try just using one photo and add lighting, colouring and text (make sure the photo is HQ). Of course you can experiment with texture and stock (fav websites: deviantart, weheart, pintrest, tumblr) and making backgrounds, midgrounds, and foregrounds! best of luck xx
