life update(?)

 

Hello there~ I hope you’re all doing well!

 

I’m so sorry for vanishing without saying anything, I desperately needed this break. Also, I’m going to apologize again because this is not the type of blog you might be expecting, since I don’t plan on coming back yet. I really just wanted to drop by and give some sort of update/explanation(?) because I felt like I left very abruptly. 

 

Long story short, I began actively writing during the peak of covid when I mainly had online classes and remote work. I had plenty of time to write, which was why I was updating so often. Since then, school and work began to open back up. I eventually graduated college last Spring and scored a full time job. My company was very understaffed during covid so I decided to pick up extra hours to work remotely from home on the weekends (this was back in May, around the same time when I made my last update for Clockwork). It’s such a weird comparison but having to sit in front of my computer 8 hours a day, every single day, is extremely exhausting and the last thing I wanted to do was to go home and sit in front of my computer again to write. I hated that feeling and I didn’t want my only hobby to become a strain in my life. My writing also became really sloppy, and I started doubting myself if I should even continue. This was primarily the reason why I decided to stop writing.

 

With that being said, I am now slowly trying to find my way back on here, writing snippets each day when I can, and until I get my flow back. I would hate to give up on something that I absolutely love doing so much. Until then, I do have some unpublished drafts (which needs plenty of editing 😭) and I might release those when I find the time to do so. As for my ongoing story, Clockwork will officially be on hiatus until I can properly balance my work and social life a bit better. 

 

If you’re still reading this, thank you so much for your patience. I am going to work harder and hopefully come back with much better quality stories for you all. I’m sorry for such a disappointing blog, I hope you can understand. I’m not sure when, but I hope to see you all again very soon ❤️

I did wait for your update eventually each day turn to week to month but somehow I understand that some people do have their own commitments outside this site so yeah I could wait for it anytime longer.

Oh heyyy! This is like good life news though! You’re healthy and graduated and employed- so yay you! And you mentioned a work and social life so that’s another good for you moment! Just think of all these life experiences enhancing your writing. I don’t think you should force yourself but definitely don’t give up on something you found joy and value in. I can definitely see why you would put Clockwork on hiatus, as that story itself, seems to require a lot of emotional and mental pull to bring the characters and backstories all together. Your stories are wonderful because of that. Don’t let life steal anything from you. You’re meant to eat Life, not let it eat you
