Here is an almost 6k long Drarry update. I poured my actual heart and soul into this. I’m sorry that I don’t have a set updating schedule, and honestly I don’t expect that I’ll have one soon. 
          	
          	There’s a lot going on with my work and personal life that’s resulted in me looking for a new job, and it’s just a lot right now. Please send thoughts/prayers/positive vibes because I really need them right now. 
          	
          	I’m wishing you all the best though, I hope you like the direction that the story is going!

@Pearlshipper12345 I’m so glad to hear that because honestly I had no idea where that story was going. I was writing and then suddenly Draco is moving in to strengthen the wards which was NOT my initial plan, but here we are. 
          	  
          	  Hugs are needed honestly because I am constantly going through it  other than posting updates for all of you, I love writing for ME. I have hundreds of ideas in my notes that will probably never see the light of day, but I write them anyway. 
          	  
          	  I need wattpad to bring back the messaging feature asap because I miss interacting with everyone and not having conversations on my profile. Idk if you have twitter but if you do follow me and send me a message and we can chat! @slowburndrarry I hope you’re doing better than you were last week!

New Wolfstar one shot is up! Still fighting for my life in the world but chapter 4 of my latest Drarry story is in progress. 
          
          Question for you all, which story of mine is your favorite? I can’t quite pick, but Late Night Talking is one of my favorites. 
          
          Wishing you all the best,

it's either ghosts or therapy for me, although ISTTIMI is also incredible

New Drarry story chapter 3 is up! The title is a work in progress, but for those of you reading from my Drabbles book, future updates will be posted in this story below. I’m sure I’ll hear a song I love and the story will take on its name. I’ll be going through my Drarry and writing playlists to find something, so stay turned. 
          
          Not to classic fanfic author dump but I’ve been going through a lot lately and haven’t had the time or motivation to write. When I do write it’s been Wolfstar because they’re “easier” to write, but I’ve missed Drarry. Writing them has given me some slight semblance of normalcy with everything going on lately. Please send positive thoughts/vibes my way. 
          
          Wishing you all the best,

@wolfgoddessqueen15 <3 I’ve missed writing them so much. I’m so nostalgic for Ghosts lately, I have no idea how I was able to update every single day, sometimes multiple times a day. It absolutely blows my mind because now I have such a bad mental block I can’t do anything

@SettleDown1D first and foremost sending the good vibes over, and second thanks for the update! I missed reading your drarry stories

Hey!!!! It's me from 2 months ago!!!! I read "Therapy" and I'm re-reading it for inspiration, as an author with anxiety, I understand your reasoning for feeling like the epilog might ruin the book, but I KNOW it's going to be amazing, and you should take that leap of faith, I LOVE the book, thank you so much for writing it!! and no pressure!! :D

@SettleDown1D lol real, Ok, and in the spring/summer is my birthday!! (more of a summer baby but could count as sping)

SettleDown1D

Hi!! Writing the epilogue is actually one of my New Year’s resolutions! It will get done this year!! I’m in a different stage of life than I was at that time period when I wrote it, and it’s so hard for me to find time to write anything at all. I need to do a full re-read of therapy and figure out where I want the epilogue to go. It could be a proposal, a wedding, a flashback to a previous event, etc. I need to see where inspiration takes me. I’m currently in between a Wolfstar story and a Drarry story. Ideally I’ll get to therapy in the spring when I have some time off but I feel like it’ll probably end up being over the summer

you dont know the hold you and your fics have on me babe. i live, eat and breathe them.

Thank you!! My goal for this year was to write and upload like I used to before I was working full time and I’m glad I’ve been able to get a few things posted. I have so many Drarry ideas that are half started in my notes, and so many little one shots in the Drabbles book I want to finish. Wolfstar has also really taken a hold of me this past 2 or so years so I’m trying to balance their stories with my Drarry ones since I know everyone followed me for Drarry

Hello everyone! I got very ambitious with what I thought was going to be a Wolfstar one shot and has now accidentally turned into a full on Wolfstar fic. I tried working on the Drarry chocolate frog card Auror partners fic in the interim, but One Night Stand You has been calling to me like the Green Goblin mask and who am I to stifle my own creativity? Parts 1-2 are now up in Wolfstar Works with parts 1-3 posted on my AO3 which is linked in my profile. 
          
          Wishing you all the best,

Hii! I love all of your works and think they are great! I was thinking about maybe writing one, so I've written a small prologue. I was wondering if I could send it to you and if you could share your thoughts about it and if I should pursue it. It's my first time writing anything so it might be really bad, but I was wondering if you could take a look at it!
          
          Hope you consider it!❤
          
          (Also it isn't based off of any book it's completely an original)

Happy New Year! May 2025 be kind and gentle to us all. 
          
          My first New Year’s resolution is to finally finish and upload the epilogue to Therapy this year so PLEASE hold me accountable. 
          
          I would also like to rewrite Piece of Your Heart. I absolutely love that Ron characterization but we could definitely do without the way I wrote Ginny. It was my first Drarry fic, and my first ever completed fic (moment of silence to the old 1D fic I never finished) and I’d love to update it to my current writing style. 
          
          In the works I have an Auror partners Drarry story that is slowly being churned out, it will be posted as its own fic hopefully by the end of the week. I am also accidentally writing a full length Wolfstar fic called One Night Stand You. I won’t post that one until the whole thing is complete so I can make sure the timeline makes sense. 
          
          In the meantime, if I could recommend any of my completed fics to you to read in between waiting for updates, it’s Late Night Talking. That is my favorite Drarry fic that I’ve written, and I would love for you all to read it if you haven’t already. I’m so insanely proud of that one. 
          
          Here’s to peace, happiness, and a better work-life balance this year. I’m striving to reconnect with my hobbies after so many challenges at work these past 2 years, and trying to get back on a consistent writing schedule is my goal. 
          
          All my love, 
          J <3
