Hello all!
It has been quite a year (and a month) for me. I am sorry I abandoned this story, but I have been very busy restructuring my life. I began writing this when I was going through the type of anxiety described in the first two chapters, and while it was therapeutic then, I think it will be even more so now that I know how this story ends. (Don't worry- it ends well!)
Of course, the end of one story involving my Fear begins another. As the COVID-19 pandemic rapidly spreads in the US, I am on break at home and will likely not be returning to school in person for a while. This disruption is causing me quite a bit of worry, and I am in need of distractions. After a lesson in my psychology class on the parts of the brain, I've become inspired to continue on with this story.
Updates may be slow, but I am confident that I can push out all the ideas simmering in my brain. I also recognize that no one might know or care about this story- that is okay! I am writing it for myself; an audience is merely an added benefit. However, if you are intrigued by or are enjoying this story, I encourage you to follow, favorite and leave a review.
My Fear wants to tell you all to wash your hands regularly, stay home when possible, and be safe. Sometimes she is a bit extreme, but I believe her this time seeing as she is just echoing health officials. It is our responsibility to protect the elderly and other populations vulnerable to COVID-19. Also, please get your coronavirus news from organizations like the WHO and CDC, not politicians or social media influencers. I've said my piece!
Have a great day and I hope to have another chapter posted soon!
