I know I went ia recently, and I came back not too long ago, but I have to go on another hiatus. I signed up for writing contests I knew I didn't have much time for. and I started writing the pieces for 2/3 of them, but I'll have to pause that for a bit. I've gotten a bunch more responsibilities and things to do that it's nearly impossible to do them, let alone write stories I'm satisfied with for a contest. if you see me on scratch, commenting or posting, please please please scold me because I'll admit I'm kind of addicted and check it quite often. I will most likely (no promises) return at the end of 2026, but definitely at least early 2027 I'll still finish the pieces I wrote for contests just for the sake of finishing them so you all can read it, even if they won't mean anything competition-wise anyways, I'll come back in a couple months (again) again, I'm so so sorry to the contest hosts, but I don't think I can make the deadline, even with extensions love you all, isabelle xx (special mention to all my fav scratchers... you know who you are <3)
