4 long years later.. Revisiting my past. I was reminiscing on my middle school/freshman year of high school and remembered my most memorable memory. Over 3 million reads on Stay Cloudy, a barely halfway done New Beginnings, and memories of Life with Tyler (Oakley).

Here's a bit of an update for those of you that have stayed with me all these years, messaged me to see what was going on, etc. I don't quite know when I stopped publishing/updating you all on my situations. From where I believe I left off, my mother passed away in 2014 due to cancer and I went downhill. My father eventually remarried and I rebelled. My junior year in high school, I was never home and got into a group of friends, our weekends were full of underage parties & cigarettes. In the middle of my junior year I got into an abusive relationship and he forced me away from my group of friends, caused so much pain and caused me to loose my connections to all of the people I loved. My senior year, I finally left him after we were on and off and I discovered he cheated on me. I left him just before my 18th birthday. On my 18th birthday weekend, all of my friends surprised me with a night like we used to have (remember these are the ones I lost connections with) and I got my "family" back. Even now, we are all friends. I even got close with my step-mother, who I now call mom. After my senior year, I started college and got a job. I am currently a full time Home Health Aide, going to school part time. My boyfriend and I have been together since October 2017.

I remember being a scared nerdy kid writing fan fiction in my spare time, deleting my account multiple times, deleting my stories, story trailers on YouTube, all of that. I was ashamed of writing fan fiction but now I regret it, because 3 million reads on just ONE of my stories is kick ass and I sit here proud as hell of the kid I was staying up late writing these amazing fan fictions & playing Sims 3.

I just want to thank all of you for being there when I needed a boost, checking on me in my 4 year break and constantly telling me how you loved my writing. I have not written since the last posted chapter of New Beginnings, although I am considering rereading my work and continuing New Beginnings (just for you die-hards that want to know how to book ends) and possibly starting new.

As you see, I reposted my stories I had available to me. Thank you all so much for sticking by me... and I suppose if anyone wants some more chapters, or a new book (not fan fiction), comment below & I will definitely think about it.

Love you all so much,
Melissa

XOXO ❤️
