Hi guys! I'm really sorry that this isn't an update to my stories, but I want to at least let you know how things are going down. This will be crossposted on all of my stories, so you don't need to read all of my updates if you track all of my stories.

I've been extremely busy recently; now that I'm on the A teams at my dance studio I've been wrapped up in preparations for regionals, nationals, and worlds, and I've been swamped by school. I try as hard as I can to write, but a lot of times I just don't have the ability to sit down and devote an hour to writing. I do write on my phone sometimes, and sometimes I post dorky oneshots that I wrote in .5 minutes on my AO3 account, but I just can't devote myself to full-length fics that update often.

Now, for some updates on all of my stories that are posted here:

THINGS I'M NOT ALLOWED TO DO AT HOGWARTS: Discontinued. I have no ideas for it and I've left it behind for new projects. I will leave the finished chapters up as a rememberance, but I will not write any more of it.

BOULEVARD OF BROKEN WINGS: Right now, it is on hiatus. Finishing BOBW is not my main priority, but I am not abandoning it! I probably won't update it frequently, but expect me to update it at most by Christmas. I do love the concept, but I have other projects that I want to work on more, so BOBW will be swept away a bit while I work on things like the Portals!verse fics and my novel.

I'M REALLY HATING PORTALS RIGHT NOW: This fic is in the process of being rewritten, but it is one of my main priorities, so I should update that more. The first chapter of the rewrite (Thinking in Portals) is available on my AO3 account, and I'll crosspost it soon. The original version will be left here for historic purposes. (Also, I have a couple oneshots set in the same universe as this fic on my AO3, and a friend is writing an approved spinoff, which can be found linked on my profile somewhere.) I plan to write many fics in this universe, so plan on seeing Artemis, Rayna, Stella, and Jade for a long time.

Finally, I want to give you an update on one of my favorite projects. I'm in the process of writing a full-length original novel, Delusions of a Child. DoaC is based on the only true nightmare I've ever had, and is one of the most personal things I've ever written. This dream affected me so much, I had a moment where I woke up and couldn't decide if I wanted to go back to sleep, because I wanted more of the story but it actually scared me and I didn't want it to get even worse. It's a horror novel based on a boy, Mitchell, who is admitted to a mental hospital after being trapped inside his own mind by a demon. I have yet to post DoaC anywhere, so watch out for it!

I'm really sorry for disappearing, but hopefully I'll be back into the swing of things soon.

Much love, Darcy.
