Hey guys!
Unfortunately, this is not an update. I'm so sorry for getting you guys excited.
This is more of a life update to where I am in my life right now. I can't remember if I told you guys this, but I am a grade 12 student in a small town Canadian Highschool. Some of you might know what that is like. If you don't let me tell you.
I am swamped. I have French, English, Writer's Craft, and Film. That may not seem like much to you but it is a lot for me. Not only am I doing those classes, but I started a small Christmas Business to get some extra cash for school, I have a part-time job and I am applying to art school.
Not just any art school. THE art school. It is one of the top Animation programs in the world and is super competitive to get into. They call it the Harvard of Animation. Over 3000 students apply each year and only 130 students get in. YOu have to dedicate 100% of your life to building a portfolio. I literally have no free time on my hands and it's killing me to be away from writing this long. Especially this fic. It's only been 5 months since I started writing it and it feels like a baby to me.
As I write this to you I am literally sobbing, like full-on ugly crying. I feel like I am letting you guys down and I am so so sorry to be away for this long. I haven't meant to be. However, I can't lie to you guys. I have never been able to. To be honest I kinda hate my life right now. Doing all of these things for my portfolio, also building my writing portfolio (Creative/Screenplay Writing is a backup for me, and before you suggest it I asked, fan fiction doesn't count, unfortunately), as well as trying to have a bit of a life I can't do it. It's a lot and I feel like I want my life back but if I give up I know I'll regret it for the rest of my life.
My mental health is okay guys I am not going everywhere any time soon and this isn't me announcing a break. I did that for my last fic Her Power In Time and I never came back. I won't abandon this like I abandoned that. But I want to be upfront with you guys. I have three pages of the next chapter written and it might be a while before I finish it. I am not leaving you. I promise.
However, if you decided to stop following the fic because of the lack of updates I completely understand. But I hope you stick around and keep up the kind, heart-warming, and encouraging words, because I really do mean it when I say I read each one and it keeps me going.
That's all for now. I don't know when I will see you guys next. I hope it is soon. I love you guys. Always.
