Hello long time readers and even new readers. My name is Amber, AKA The Loved And Unloved. The first fanfic I ever wrote was Betrayed Lies, and it too was a fiolee fanfic. I wrote and finished it when I was 15. I then started The Unknown Secrets shortly after (among others that have been now deleted but I still have them in my flashdrive).
I started this story when I was 15, in 8th grade almost in High school. I started when I was in a bad place with friends and I've always had a dysfunctional family. I'm almost 20 now, and I've been feeling down because I basically abandoned this site. I discovered my love for writing on here along with a few friends I made along the way (ones I am friends with irl now, ie. Sexy-Whales & TheJamJam). I am feeling really guilty about not updating or doing anything really with this series.
I love this story and here's why. I suffer from anxiety and I was bullied from the age of 7 until I was 15. I always had a hard time making and keeping friends and during my puberty phase of middle school I became very depressed and wanted to die. I would cut myself. I wanted to reflect myself into a story and create something people could relate to. I'm 19, and have grown up a lot.
Why am I telling you this? Because I've been rereading reviews some of you have written and I'm teary eyed. I forgot how much this story meant to so many of you and for that I'm sorry I haven't updated in so long. Most of you are far gone from this site and won't see this, but know I will finish this story. I must revise it even more than I have now. I want this to truly be a book someday because mental illness is still in 2017, not talked about as much as it should be. This story and all of you are one of the reasons that I want to presue the mental health field.
Know that you are not alone and that I do care about you.
I'll update before the change of the year.
If you're reading this and you've been here since 2013/2014, then thank you for sticking around for this long. If you're new and just seeing this for the first time, then thank you for reading this :)
You'll hear from me soon!
