y'all, here's the update status (copied straight from their tumblr page LMAOO)
— MARCH 2024.
accomplishments.
erm. hi. it’s been a while, i know. i skipped last month’s update, so i’ll give you a lengthy one for march. truth be told, i haven’t been able to touch when twilight strikes for a while. this is not because i don’t want to, but mostly because i’ve been busy with school and/or have been struggling with writer’s block. because of this, i made the decision to scrap what i had written for chapter eleven and start (kinda) from scratch. now, before you go and panic, let me explain.
the reason i’ve been taking so long on this chapter is that, well, i screwed up. i found a (rather large) plot hole that i’ve been trying to fix, and the solution i came up with was, uh, interesting. definitely not my greatest idea. but because i had already written so much, i kept pushing forward, hoping that things would straighten out and i’d miraculously like the chapter by the time i finished. haha, very funny. as you can tell, that didn’t end up happening. i didn’t particularly hate what i wrote, i could just tell that it was absolute bullshit. and while sometimes that works, it just was not doing it for me here. so i cut it.
i was able, however, to save a bunch of it for the new draft, so i didn’t completely start over, but i am definitely down a lot of words compared to what i had written initially. i’m not super bummed out about it, but i am upset that that means i’m again behind on getting this out to you. i know it’s been a while since i’ve published any updates and hearing that i’ve pushed things back is probably not very fun, but i promise, now that i’ve got my plot hole sorted out, things are going much smoother.
i’m currently in the thick of final exams so i haven’t been able to write as much as i’ve wanted to lately, but the good news is that i’m graduating (WOOOOO!) so i won’t have any more school work to distract me anymore. once mid-april hits, i’m free everybody.
(on that note, thank you for being so patient and sticking by me. i see new fans joining every day and it warms my heart that so many of you continue to enjoy this story. i appreciate you so much more than you know).
