Well... I'm trying, I promise ^^' | Update Again, Special Gift and Thank You

A few weeks ago I posted an update about the changes going on in my life, blah blah, etc.

Well, I would like to apologize for the fact that I said I would start updating again soon and still haven't. I promise, it's not intentional.

I actually had a good bit of Fifty Shades of Jimin written out for the next chapter, but...

My mother dropped my laptop and broke it, so I had to buy a new one. And, I lost all of the stories I had been writing on Scrivener. I usually back it up on google drive, but for some reason, I decided "Nah, not necessary" for the next chapter (and a couple of story outlines I'm so sad I lost T.T) and it's all gone now.

So, I had to start the next chapter over from scratch, and as you other writers out there may know, forcefully having to restart a chapter is really difficult and it's quite easy to lose the motivation to write when that happens. And thus, that is the point at which I am.

I'm sorry, I really am. I think I'm going to give myself a "July-o-wrimo" challenge, where I force myself to write a set number of words every day, be they ty or not. I can't do 50k, but I can do something, and hopefully that push me back into my writing mood. And, in addition to that, instead of writing FSOJ (or any of my other stories) immediately again, I might just post a new one, and see if maybe a fresh story will get me back into the groove of writing again, and give me more motivation to write, period. I know this might disappoint some people, but I'm not going to quite writing my other stories, so you don't have to worry about them never being completed. It will get there. I promise.

I already have an idea for which story I'll be doing, and it's going to be a fantasy story which I'm so incredibly excited about, because despite the fact that I haven't written any on AFF, that is my favorite genre to write. I hope you all will look forward to more about that soon.

I've also been in a bit of an emotional slump over the last few months (which I talked about in my hiatus blog) and slowly but surely, I am getting past that again. It's hard, but lots of things are and I'm pushing through. I want to thank everyone who was so supportive over my hiatus, as well, and who gave me so many encouraging comments and lots of love. I really appreciate it, and I'm very grateful for the respect all of you gave me during this time. I really cannot thank you enough.

I don't know, that makes me want to do something special for you guys. If you have ideas on something special I can do, something you guys would be interested in (like story requests or a giveaway or something? I'm not good at stuff like this, and I have no idea who will even be interested. Comment if you've got any ideas or something).

Okay, onto an important life update. As I said before, I quit my last job, and I have been unemployed for the last month or so, job hunting and stressing about everything, and I also made the annoucement that I might be going to school in England.

Well, that's changed quite a bit in this short period of time. I'm not going to England anymore (not for school, anyway). I've decided to stay home and do online school and just work full time while I get my degree. To be honest, I don't handle stress well (obviously) and going away to school has always been such a stressful thought for me, and with financial problems happening now, I don't want to add more to my stress bucket. But, a big plus side to online school, hopefully I'll get more time to write.

And, as for my job situation. I actually have an interview tomorrow (6/21/16) so wish me luck >.<
I'll let you guys know how it goes. Hopefully I'll get the job and can afford to pay my bills again. And, I've never said this before, but I collect BTS merchandise (CD's, DVDs, photocards, goods, etc.) I mean, I buy other kpop albums (and sometimes goods) if I really want them, but I've only actively been collecting BTS and my collection is growing quite a bit, and I need to work again, because my savings for that stuff is running out and they love burning all of our wallets with the amount of goods and merch they continuously come out with (seriously, it never ends). So PLEASE, let me get this job *crosses fingers*.

Okay, that's basically it for this update... Hopefully I'll get back into writing, come July. And again, if you guys have any ideas you would like to see happen in the future, please do let me know. I need motivation to write, and you guys give it to me (other than when all it says is "update soon" or something along those lines).

I will start writing Fifty Shades of Jimin again really soon, after I get back into writing as a whole, first.

P.S. Thank you all so much for getting FSOJ of 3k+ subs. I am literally in shock about it, and even keep forgetting it's that high, because it feels like the last time I checked, it was only at 500, and just wow. You guys are amazing. Very much so. *hugs*
Thank you for sticking around even during such a crazy and low point in my life. ^~^)/
