Good News!!

Guess who's back, back again, Suteishii's back, tell a friend!

Yes! That's right! I'm back and fully active on Buzzle once more. I've JUST submitted a new chapter. It feels amazing to be writing again.

I guess when I write, all those emotions just become let loose and channeled. I feel a lot freer and honestly, the release that came from writing that first paragraph was immense. I feel like I've just come down from the high that comes from performing. (For me to make that comparison is really saying something!

So you can expect new posts when...?

Well at the moment, I intend to do a few chapters in a short burst to apologize for my absence. However, I really do hope that it will be back to every Friday soon. Although I must warn people, I'd say we're at around the halfway mark now. I don't know if I'll have new stuff going onto buzzle then. As I've said before, the version on Buzzle is almost like the skeleton. I'll be fleshing it up, making it more adult in places too! So I may disappear to finish that off then return with something new! Or I may return straight away and start fleshing out now...

hey this is me we're talking about... who knows?!

(if you do please contact me asap! ;) )

If anyone actually reads this...

then thanks very much for your support!

Updates

The bad news:

Unfortunately, I've been very distracted and haven't had a chance to update Heaven's State in a while. For a while I was unable to work while I had a bad ankle; I'm still awaiting Physiotherapy. I've also not been in a good mind state as I've fallen out with a good long term friend and I understand that he is suffering hugely in his personal life and it's very hard knowing I can not be there for him. I'm doing my best to keep a positive attitude and sometimes knowing he has someone else looking out for him is enough, as long as he has people I can justify my absence to myself.

Sadly..

...this has had a very negative affect on my mental health. I am someone who suffers depression so things like this can have a very odd affect on me and in this instance the affect has been to completely drain me of inspiration and energy to write. I will be writing as soon as I feel better and honestly I feel hugely bad when I logged onto Buzzle for the first time in ages and saw the nicest, most inspirational comment ever:

"Still phenomenal! One of the best stories I have EVER read! Post Chapter 6 SOON!"

To Estrella who posted this- I will do my best to get chapters up very very very very soon. Thank you so much for your support.

For now

For now I'm going to relax a little. Do my best to restore a good mood and the truth is my life isn't that bad and I have a wonderful boyfriend who I can count on to help.

Thank you very much for everything.

Two New Chapters & Illustrations

New Chapters

Basically, this week I have uploaded two new chapters to Buzzle. What happened was I wrote what has now become Chapter 5 and I realised that the story had rushed onto quickly and it had lost a lot of it's pace. Therefore I've put in a new chapter to hopefully explain the way events are building and I'm hoping to help make future chapters more emotional.

I'll let you know how well they do later in the week.

Illustrations 

I'm incredibly lucky that my friend read Heavens State, loved it and happens to be a VERY talented artist. She's kindly doing some illustrations of the characters for me and has uploaded her picture of Christian to Deviant Art here:

Keep coming back here for more of her fantastic work as she is really a very talented artist.

Having someone drawing my characters has been a really good experience, it helps give me an even clearer image and I've learnt so much about Christian as a character through doing it. For example we were discussing colour of the shirt he was wearing and I found myself discovering what Christian would like, almost as if he was there in my head giving me fashion advice!

Ok, I'll go see the nice men in the white coats now...

Popularity

My work on Buzzle seems to be becoming increasingly popular which is absolutely fabulous, It's an absolute confidence boost seeing people continuing to read my work. So thank you to everyone who keeps me inspired.

That's all for now,

Thank You for my support and keeping checking here and Buzzle for updates!
