Dear readers, I am very grateful that you've been enjoying my book. I have to admit that I was overwhelmed by trying to update 5 chapters every week and I felt like no matter what I did, people weren't engaging with my story. I didn't have comments, people didn't subscribe, and this is my first time writing so I thought that maybe I'm just not cut out for writing. While I still wanted to continue my story, I was embarrassed so I deleted about 20 chapters and I told myself that I would repost them when they were edited sufficiently. I was editing a lot when I first started my Starry Writing account but then I started to get sick. I was diagnosed with a degenerative genetic disorder that causes me to be very tired, experience a lot of pain, and I've had to have surgery recently to place a port in my chest because my veins will no longer support an IV for treatments. I've spent so much time at different doctors and specialists recently that I don't feel like a woman but a patient. I don't feel beautiful. I don't feel like myself. So it's really hard for me to put myself in the shoes of Euroah, a beautiful young lady in the midst of a steamy romance with a handsome man when I feel so weak and tired. Because I didn't think people even cared to read my work anyways, I told myself that it doesn't matter. But thanks to a reader that found my page on facebook and reached out, I am so touched and I finally logged in again to find that my book has over 500 subscribers! I had no idea that I had missed comments from readers waiting for an update. I was relieved that you guys like my book and now I want to do better. I will try to update with new chapters very soon and I'm sorry that I neglected my readers for so long. I'm starting by editing the first 37 chapters to be even better. I was reading through them and noticed some errors and y'all deserve better. After that, I will try to update with a new chapter once a week. If you can do me a favor, I would really appreciate any comments, suggestions, or well wishes to keep my spirits up because I constantly live in a state of self doubt. I always worry about wether or not what I do is good enough. I don't know that my work is loved if I'm not told so. Please help to keep me motivated and give me your feedback so that I can continue to bring you more. I haven't made a penny from writing so the only currency I get is appreciation. Thank you for your continued support! -Sultry Sky 6/16/2022
