GUYS

WHAT THE HECK

Okay... So this book officially has 100,000 reads.

That is insane.

We're almost at 4K votes too... INSANE!!

I remember when I hit 10K and I was already very excited, then the read count just continued rising and rising... And then January 1, we hit 50,000 reads. I was so excited, saying how I couldn't believe I had gotten so many reads in nine months. I said that maybe in another nine months this book could get 50K more and well... It's been a little over six months and here we are, 100K reads on this book.

I never pictured myself having this many reads on a book. I never really expected so many people to give my stories a chance. I just thought that maybe a few people would read and vote every once in a while but that's not what happened.

Now, I know there are people who thank their readers whenever another 1000 or less has gone up. I love seeing people being so happy and genuinely thankful even when their story hits a couple hundred reads. I haven't thanked you very often but don't think I'm not grateful. I am so grateful for every read, every vote and comment that has been left on my book.

You guys have been absolutely amazing. I know all my stories aren't the best but I am grateful that you have read them, given them a chance. I appreciate all the funny comments you have left, all the sweet messages you have sent me, they really make my day.

Here I am after a little over a year, 100K in, hopefully more to come? I'm not planning on quitting anytime soon. I know I haven't been the most active person here... I have no excuse. I just haven't been in the mood to write much. I've been feeling a little blue lately. I have written some things but not really the ones I've been supposed to write. I promise I'll try to get everything done asap so I can come back and have you send me requests.

Anyways, I love you all and thank you so much for all the love and support. I'm glad I've gotten the chance to entertain you with my writing and seemingly you have enjoyed it, some more than others but that's okay. I feel like my writing has been kind of bleh for a while... Writing is just really hard.

Remember when I posted Worth It? My first ever published smut on this account? Yeah, that took like six or seven hours to write and I did it in one sitting. I usually write throughout the week. Another hour or two was spent on proofreading and fixing my mistakes and another hour to post it, tagging people on Tumblr and adding it to my masterlist. It's pretty exhausting having to do that every time I post, not that it's not worth it (lmao) because it is.

I'm not really good with stress and working too hard so that's why I'm not the most active person here. I'm sorry for that. I do work my hardest on giving you some quality content. Maybe less harder for some... but I do! I want to give you guys the best I can offer and that is why I take my time. If I'm not happy with something I've written, I don't want to post it. You guys deserve the best.

Okay, I'm sure (if you've read all the way here) you're all ready bored of my rambling. I'm going to stop here but not before thanking you one last time. Thank you so much for all the love and support. I really do appreciate everything you do for me even if I don't always show it. Thank you. I'm glad I've had the pleasure of going through this journey with you and I hope you're not quite ready to jump out of this car/train/ship whatever vehicle you prefer because I've still got a long way to go. I could use some company along the way. Thank you.

Love, Julia

(but you can call me Jules)
