Alright, it's past Wednesday, I decided to give a couple more days to see if anyone else would vote. For a while there I thought we were tied between Hubert and Sloane vs River Parker and Max. However, I did see that on 03/15 I did ask for votes then, so I did a recount.
          	
          	By my count the numbers are as follows:
          	
          	Dylan and Dorian: 1
          	Sam and Jessica: 1
          	Charlie and Mickey: 1
          	Kai and Claude 1:
          	Mars and Fritz: 1
          	Esme and Cecil: 1
          	Reagan and Silas: 1
          	Ryder and Hayden: 1
          	August and Dallas: 1
          	Jack and Billie: 1
          	
          	Then in third we have:
          	
          	River, Parker, and Max with 4 votes
          	
          	In second we have: 
          	
          	Sloane and Hubert with 5 votes
          	
          	And the winner of this couple's poll is:
          	
          	Paula and Carter with 7 votes!
          	
          	Again thank you all so much for the support you've given for this series! I'll take a few days to work on Paula and Carter's artwork and I'll post it as always do on my Patreon and Kofi. I'll be sure to post links here when it's done so you don't have to look for it!
          	
          	I'm still working on the next update of High Seas, I am trying to finish that story before continuing with Mother of an Empire. With the weekend arriving I'll have a bit more time to sit down and really write everything out!
          	
          	Thanks again everyone!

Well... We're at five hundred followers... What..? How?! You guys seem to have gotten really good at sneaking these milestones up on me! 
          
          First, let me say how much I appreciate everyone's support. I've been writing for a long time and have never gotten this far with building any sort of community behind my work. So I've gotten used to doing my own little thing and making things I enjoy making. 
          
          When I started I wanted to do something different than anything else I've done before. I didn't think I'd get any sort of attention on anything I wrote, which is what I was used to. I was just enjoying the art of making these silly little stories.
          
          And that's what it was, until you guys started coming in. Suddenly, I had people telling me how much they liked my writing?! Which is just wild to me. So rest assured, I'm not going anywhere any time soon and I plan on making plenty of Yes, My Alpha in the future. Even if I don't always get to update as often as I like.
          
          Speaking of which, a bit of an announcement, recently I've changed my upload style where I upload as I write. This has been unsustainable as it leaves you guys with large blocks of time with no new content when life gets in the way. So I'm reverting back. I'll be completing stories, except for Mother of an Empire, before they are uploaded. 
          
          Once High Seas is finished, I'll be switching back to that. The good news is, Wattpad has a schedule feature which it didn't have before. So that means, I can schedule out updates. So hopefully this gets more consistent content out there.
          
          Now, onto the matter at hand, the couples Poll. If you're new, I draw a piece of couples art every hundred followers. Any couple from my stories is eligible. 
          
          I've done: Harriet and Thomas, Beau and Logan, Darcy and Liam, Beatrix and Ellis, and Taylor and Cameron in the past. So they are no longer eligible. 
          
          So far we have votes for Carter and Paula, and Dylan and Dorian. 
          
          I'll be sure to post the piece once we have a clear winner.

Alright thanks to everyone's suggestions I've now got the entire Yes My Alpha and Mother of an Empire series backed up on AO3. The user name is the same Bottle7. So if there's ever a situation where this goes down you can find me there. Also, I will still be on Inkitt and my Ko-Fi and Patreon.
          
          I'm still working on getting everything up on Inkitt. 
          
          But it's a relief to have everything on Ao3 now. 
          
          Side note, apparently I've written over 600k with just the Yes My Alpha Series and Mother of an Empire. Mother of an Empire beating out Viridian Visions which stands at a hefty 92,580 words with 116,090 words.

That’s wild  props to you author

Hey everyone in light of recent updates on Wattpad. I've taken to starting to back up my stories on Inkitt. Just in case something happens there, or my profile gets taken down for whatever reason.
          
          So just so you know I'm available over there under the same user Bottle7

Bottle7

@aminyajamzzz2 I'm planning on using both Inkitt and AO3 I've already got up to perfectly pink posted on Inkitt and I'm working on doing the same for AO3. Wattpad will still have priority so don't worry about having to move over to another site just yet. But they're serving as safety nets just in case.

You should use AO3 instead, it's amazing!! I'l support your writing either way

@Bottle7 Now that you mention the links, you should also use Linktree, it would help a lot so that new readers can more easily find the extra content that you have in your other accounts.

You guys... You guys... It's barely been two months!
          
          You guys are crazy! We're already almost at 500 followers?! We just hit 400 back in January!
          
          Alright... Alright... I'm sure you guys know the drill now, for those of you who don't. Around the time I reach about halfway to the next goal post of followers, I open up a poll to choose which couple from my stories gets new art. 
          
          So far we've done the following couples... Please keep in mind these are NOT your options.
          
          Thomas and Harriet
          Beau and Logan
          Darcy and Liam
          Beatrix and Ellis
          Taylor and Cameron
          
          Again the above couples are NOT your options for this poll. They are the previous winners. Any other couples from my stories are available to vote on. You can vote for multiple couples and the poll will remain open until we reach a winner and until we reach 500 followers. 
          
          After that, I'll announce the winner of the poll and then shortly post the art. Again thank you guys so much for the support. I really do appreciate it.
          
          Side question what kind of settings would you like to see in the future? Would you like to see more sci-fi? Do you want more historical? Or do you prefer modern?

@Bottle7  do one in the Stone age

@Bottle7 I would probably want to see Dylan and Dorian. Just bc I feel like Dylan is super cool with all her handmade jewelry.
            
            
            Also I really like both the historical settings and the modern ones. I think I'd like to see more modern for now. I wonder what the bottle verse™️ (it's a thing now) would look like in the 2020s. In the modern world we see a lot more breakdown of norms and the divorcing of gender, sex, and sexuality. We recognize that these things don't necessarily depend on each other to determine someone's identity. Men are embracing traditionally "feminine" things, while women do the same for "masculine" things. 
            I wonder if something similar would happen in a modern omegaverse?
            Idk I just really like complex world building. Do your thing tho!

Please note I’m not upset or angry. But I want to speak frankly because I’m getting this kind of message often now. 
            
            I’m thrilled that you guys like my work. I really am, but I have a full time job and I’m in graduate school. I write when I can.  It just hasn’t been possible for me to write as much as I’d like. After all this work has been done completely for free. There have been a few nice readers willing to donate to my Patreon. But it’s not something I can support myself on to do this full time or something I expect from you guys. After all, I have a job. 
            
            So while it might sound or seem mean, you’ll get new content when it’s done. It’ll be done when I have time to make it.

Fun fact: Did you know that I mirror all my stories over to my patreon page for completely free?  Meaning you don't need to pay money to read them there. 
          
          I do this as a safety measure in case there's a purge on Wattpad for whatever reason. But it's also useful because you can read the stories on the patreon app without any weird ads showing up on your phone. Also, if your phone has the Microsoft edge app you can have it read my stories aloud to you on your phone. 
          
          So, if you're not geolocked from using Patreon. You may want to visit there. I have 122 posts currently on my page, only 19 are currently locked behind a pay wall. Those are usually deleted scenes or unfinished stories.  The rest are completely free for anyone to read.
          
          While normally I don't usually advertise my patreon, I've been seeing some weird ads on the wattpad app and I thought it save someone some misery.
