I just wanted to say a huge thank you to anyone who has read Welcome to Wrenview. This is the first story I've ever even written down in full, as well as the first story I've ever posted anywhere, and I had so much fun writing it.

Of course, there will always be things I wish I had done differently. I wish it had been a bit longer, so I could shape Ellie and Peter's characters more clearly. They have both been living in my heart for a long time, but I'm not sure if I brought their characters to life in the same way that I see them. When I read my writing, I know exactly who they are, but I don't know if the reader gets to know them the same way. I am learning a lot about how difficult it is to express yourself on a page, even when your thoughts and ideas are clear in your mind.

I also wish that I had named some of my characters differently! I mean, I have two sets of siblings, Hank and Julia, and Hunter and Jessica. WHY in the world did I go with such similar names? Honestly, even I get them mixed up sometimes.

And Liam and Emerson have somewhat similar names too, and though their characters are very different, I'm pretty sure I switched their names around once or twice. I thought about changing their names, but by that point, they all existed in my mind as real people, so it seemed wrong somehow. Hopefully that hasn't confused anyone too much!

Again, thank you so so much for reading Welcome to Wrenview. Please look forward to the sequel, Music in Wrenview. (I might change that title...) It won't be focused on Ellie and Peter, but they will still be there, along with some other familiar characters, and some new characters. I have one or two books planned out after that, but I am getting way ahead of myself.

I would love any criticism or advice you can offer. I am continually amazed at how much quality writing there is on this platform. I think a big part of that is due to the awesome community. Writing is fun on its own, but being able to see people's reactions in this environment is so cool.

Thank you!
