TL;DR:

1. I will not be continuing TWIP
2. I love and am grateful for you all and TWIP will always be a very important part of my writing journey
3. If you’d like to find out where I planned to take the story, I will be outlining that in the next update which WILL come out possibly as soon as a few hours after this update
4. I will be opening up for any questions you have about the story or about me so please ask away in the comments and I will answer them as soon as I get them
5. I will mostly be off of aff so this could very well be my last time as an author on this site (but who knows, I may return under another account!)
6. Thank you all again, for being a part of my journey.

Hey all, or whoever is still around to even read this haha. It’s Sarah and I’m sorry if you were hoping for a real update since this isn’t a new chapter at all. There are a few things I’d like to say and if you stay around until the end, I would be more than grateful.

Firstly, I’d like to make it very clear that TWIP will end uncompleted at 89 chapters. I want to thank each and every one of you who took that time to even click into my fanfic even if you ended up not reading any of it. I loved being an author on aff and you guys were my very small, but very cherished readers. The reason I will not be continuing is because I don’t have any more desire to write for this story. There are many flaws and things that would make me unable to, as a creator would to their work, keep going. This goes for as well the other stories on this account. I was also like 12 when I started on aff, well, maybe not quite early as 12, but you get what I mean. Now that I’ve grown up, I’ve also outgrown writing TWIP.

Now, I don’t want it to sound like I’m just tired of writing it and it’s too babyish (?) for me. I want to express how important TWIP is for me as it was not only my very first fanfic, but the first thing I ever have written that was chaptered. And, wow, I mean 89 chapters is kind of amazing, especially for someone like myself. My time writing this has been so special to me as is when I write anything else because even though I don’t finish 99% of what I start, it has always been the process from an idea to getting down words that I enjoy the most. So I would like to thank you for being on this journey with me as you are all an important part of it for me too.

Secondly, I thought that at the very least, since I can’t complete the story, that I would share with you all of the thoughts and plans I had to continue and end it. I was going to put it in this letter, but I think I will have it in the next chapter, just to keep things organised. So, if you’d be interested in knowing all that was supposed to come next, please feel free to check it out afterwards.

Finally, I mean I still want to emphasize how much I love you all and I’m honestly so grateful that you are here or were here. I’m going to open up questioning and answer any questions you may have about the story or about me so please leave me a comment and I will absolutely get back to you. I’m not going to close my account, probably not ever, so feel free to come back whenever. Currently this account is my only one, so I’ll still be coming back on every now and again since I still have authors on here that are very important to me. However, one day I might make a new account and post new stories there sometime in the future, since I already have another fanfic I’ve written and finished and even am working on the sequel. This other fanfic I had always intended to be for myself only, however, so I’m still unsure if I’d be willing to share it with others.

Anyway, there’s the update from me. TWIP is far from perfect or ideal, but I hope you enjoyed the ride as much as I enjoyed being the creator of the story. I am going to start on everything that was supposed to happen where I left off right after putting this up so hopefully I will have it done within a few hours. Emphasis on hopefully haha. Just in case, I can’t promise that I’ll be super quick with it, but I can promise that this is something I’m determined to give to you all as one last gift.

So, uh, yeah thank you again if you read all of this even though it’s long. Maybe we’ll meet again.

Your loving author,
