A FOREWORD
Hello. My name is diamonddust131. Of course, if you're reading this story, you already know that. You have probably also garnered this is a sequel to my fanfic Cleaning With SOAP. First and foremost, I would like to thank the people who read that one and left me such warm feedback. That story has been without a doubt the most fun I've ever had writing. Totally Spies! is one of my favorite cartoons, and I'm glad I was able to show it some much deserved love with my writing.
Now then, to get to the point. Some of you are probably like, "Didn't you already upload this particular story? Why is it showing up again in my feed?" For those that did follow it and leave reviews, thank you. To answer the question as to what happened, I deleted the original version of Cleaning With SOAP!: The Movie - The Man With The Golden Claw. Why? Firstly, it hadn't been updated in almost two years. Two years. I have to apologize for that. To be perfectly honest, I lost interest in the series and moved on to other stuff. Real life things also got in the way (financial situations and whatnot. Being an adult sucks).
So, why am I back writing this now? Cleaning With SOAP! was so well-received that it felt like a crime for me to not come back to this and attempt to finish it. I owe it to you all to get this thing done. Why am I bothering to rewrite it? I consider myself a different writer than I was two years ago. While what I had up was alright, it was riddled with errors and a lot of things that just personally got on my nerves. It has also been fun coming back to this and trying to remember all the character's personalities and whatnot. So far, I can say I'm both happy and proud with what I've come up with, so here's hoping you enjoy it too.
I don't usually do these sorts of things for my stories and generally just leave short author's notes, but I wanted to give all of you out there who've been waiting for some kind of update to this story some explanation. If you're still with me, thank you for your patience. If you aren't, I don't blame you. I take forever with stuff. But enough beating myself up. I fully plan on finishing this 'movie' no matter how long it takes. I won't say how many parts there are going to be. All I can really ask is for you to stay tuned.
Thanks for reading.
tl;dr - I'm finishing this story for sure, but just rewriting it, hence why I deleted the original version and why a new version showed up in your feed. Happy reading.
