INFORMATION
Hello, everyone! I hope you all are taking care of yourselves, especially with the coronavirus outbreak currently spreading around the globe. >___< Wash your hands, stay inside, practice social distancing, and keep your spirits up! It's a hard time for everyone, so please take care of your physical and mental health!
LOL, remember when I said that I'd be able to interact with the rest of the world in the previous update? Well, it turns out, that night, on the last day of my quarantine, my area was issued a "Stay at Home" order. So I literally have not left my house in over a month. :') My world has expanded beyond my bedroom, thankfully, but nothing past my property. OTL Luckily, my sleep schedule is a lot more stabilized now, so I've been relatively productive while in quarantine. Lots of time to work hard and play hard, and I have a system going on for me that's been working pretty well. But I know being cooped up inside is difficult for a lot of people, and not everyone has the luxury of getting to binge-watch TV shows or play video games all day. My heart especially goes out to essential workers who are still out there, doing their part to keep society running while risking their own health.
Anyway, for some more lighthearted news, Wendy's condition is continuously improving and she's also voicing Poppy, the main female character in Trolls World Tour, for the Korean dub! We stan the Queen of Pop Trolls! Honestly, seeing the clip of the girls' Trollsonas in the original version already got me hyped and now I'm going to set aside time to watch the first Trolls movie before TWT comes out, haha. The other girls are also busy with CF work, which is exciting, since they're building up their individual brand power and further establishing themselves as icons recognized by the general public! ^^ And as a group, Red Velvet also reached 100 millions views for the Psycho MV and one billion total streams on Spotify! Love seeing them reach these incredible milestones and the positive news is even more welcome nowadays. :)
As for the contest, there are only three months left until the deadline! Time is quickly running out! Only two more formal updates left before the final stretch. If you find yourself wondering what to do with your time, now that most of us are in quarantine, perhaps writing a Red Velvet story will keep you occupied. ^^ It's the perfect time to write and stay creative, so definitely take advantage of this opportunity! I'm super excited to read everyone's entries later this summer, so if you're on the fence about entering, don't be shy and go for it! You've got nothing to lose and everything to gain. :)
I also want to say a big thank you to writeryerim for donating karma for the Best Of prizes! I appreciate every bit of help that I can get to make this contest worthwhile for you all and the ReVeluv community, since more donations means more karma being given out! If you'd also like to be a karma donator, please contact me so we can discuss the specifics. I will repay you for your generosity!
Please continue to write stories, submit entries, and promote the contest! If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please contact me via the comment box, my wall, or private messages. I respond to all messages within 24 hours. Stay safe everyone! :)
