    Hey! How are you doing? I haven’t heard from you in a bit!

    • @hybridlore Hello! Sorry I didn’t reply, I’ve been super busy recently. Thank you for reaching out! I’m doing okay, life is getting kind of stressful with all of the scholarships I need to apply to for college. How are you?

      • It’s okay! I was wondering if you were still around!
        Oh yeah, that makes sense! Are you graduating this year? Do you know what kind of degree you’re trying to get?
        I’m doing alright! The last few months my anxiety has been higher but thankfully I think I’m starting to get better… We have been getting sick a lot so not much else is going on, besides I have a recital this weekend and we’re planning to visit family in March.
        Anything else new with you?

        • Yes, I’ll be graduating in May. It’s so weird thinking about how I won’t be at my high school anymore lol. I want to go into agriculture (probably a general degree) but the college I wanted to go to that offered it put me on its waitlist.
          I’m glad your anxiety is getting better, that’s really good! I’ll pray for you that it keeps getting better. Also I hope you guys stay healthy too, the winter season is merciless XD.
          You mentioned a recital, do you dance? Hm, there’s nothing particularly new going on, although since last time I was on KP I’ve made several changes to my WIP, although I haven’t really been working on it. Oh, and I’m in my schools play as some minor parts, which is fun.

          • Oh, cool! I’m sorry. 😞 Hopefully you’ll be able to find a different way (or get in) soon!
            Thank you!! Yeah, I know 😅 It is pretty bad this year.
            The recital is for orchestra! Oh, that’s cool! Anything major, or just small changes? You’re still working on the same one, right?
            Fun!! Is it a good play?

            • It’s okay, and thank you. I’m hoping there will be an opening or something.
              Oh cool, your in an orchestra? What instrument do you play?
              I’m still working on the same story, and the changes are pretty major, mostly to the plot and characters.
              It’s an okay play. We’re doing Radium Girls, and to be honest I would’ve preferred doing a different play but it’s fine.
              Are you still working on The Color of Hope? I think I saw you mention once that there would be a sequel, have you started writing that yet?

          • Sorry I never got back to you on this! How are you?
            I play the violin, and I have actually not been working on the sequel! The last few months I’ve kind of been taking a break from writing. I’m hoping to start working on something again soon, but I’m just waiting for the right time and also not sure if I will go back to TCOH or start a new story.
            Plot and character changes are exciting! Are you still working on it now?

            • That’s okay! I’m doing better now that I’m on spring break lol. How are you doing? You said you had a recital last time, so how did that go?
              Ohh, right, you did mention once that you play violin. That’s so cool!
              Ah, well it’s good you’re taking the time to wait for the right moment. Have you been thinking about ideas for a new story lately, or just entertaining the idea of writing one?
              Well… I haven’t worked on it in a while, unfortunately. I’d like to chalk that up to being busy, which is partly true, but also i partly like thinking about my book more than I do writing it right now XD. I’m making it my goal this month to write for at least 15 minutes every day, so hopefully I’ll actually get to that goal.

          • That’s good!! The recital went fine! I’m actually already working on the next music, which I like a lot more!
            I’m doing alright! My OCD has been worse the past few weeks, but thankfully it seems to be getting better. How are you doing with your thoughts?
            I have had another idea, but I haven’t developed it much!
            Yes, I get that! Sometimes it’s just more fun in your head. Hopefully that goal will help! I’ve heard lots of people say that building a habit is the important thing.

            • Yay, I’m glad your recital went well, and I hope the next one goes well too!
              Glad to hear your OCD is getting better, I’ll pray for you that it keeps going that way.
              I’m doing alright with my thoughts. The past couple of weeks I was in a pretty bad patch, but through that I’ve been able to learn more about myself and others. I recently read Mere Christianity though, and C.S. Lewis’ insights have really helped me in terms of understanding morality and not judging other people (which is also something I struggle with in my thoughts).
              Do you mind telling me what that idea is? (It’s okay if not, I’m just curious).
              Yes, it’s so fun imaging it in your head and not having to worry about if it sounds cringy or not. Hopefully the habit will help a lot to actually get it on paper.
