//*flops onto the dash* Some tough personal stuff is keeping me from being fully “in the game” atm, but I wanted to let everyone know I’m going to start queueing based on who I’ve owed the longest. I genuinely didn’t mean to let things go unanswered this long, but I’ll be remedying this soon. I also don't think I can answer my remaining meme prompts, so I'm sorry about that. Thanks for understanding! <3

//Just giving a little, "Hey, hey, I promise I haven't forgotten anyone," update. The replies I still owe from the past 1-2 weeks are completed, they're just being hoarded since my book comes out 4/23, and I'm stressing myself out (lol), so I'm not chunking everything in the queue like I usually would. I'm forcing myself to slow down so I can focus on my OG works for a bit.

✦ Name / Alias: Mattie

✦ Favorite Color(s): Any shade of blue, baybeee.

✦ Current Video Game(s) You’re Playing: I’m not a gamer, alas, but I did just watch the gameplay for U.ntil D.awn since I kept seeing ppl on my dash talking about it. WAY late to the party, I know. I’m an old school person and prefer stuff like G.uitar H.ero, D.uck H.unt, M.ario, D.onkey K.ong, etc., though I do enjoy watching a good story unfold.  

✦ Current Book You're Reading: Aside from my own for editing purposes (wompwomp), I’m reading a book my friend from high school wrote. It’s called Between the Moon and Wildflowers by Marlowe Atwater, for anyone curious!

✦ Favorite Food: I think the answer is “yes.” Cuz food = good lol. Idk, I’ll never say no to pizza or enchiladas tbh. Or cake. 

✦ Favorite Quote: "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." - Proverbs 27:17 

✦ Biggest Fear (make it a joke): Listen, I’m clinically OCD with an anxiety disorder, so I have a LOT of fears lmao, how can I possibly choose? It’s like choosing a favorite child: utterly impossible.

✦ Greatest Hope for 2026: Finishing this bleeping series (not the one pubbing this year) and stop being stressed over my fave hobby.

//Here's some half-conscious!Carter, 'cause that's how I feel rn. *fingerguns* I (somehow) buried a ton of completed drafts underneath my newer drafts, so I owe some people from the beginning of April, ahem-aho-ahem. But since I owe 10+ people on top of that atm, I still won't be posting those until everything is complete/I'm all caught up.

Here are my loveliesTM whom I owe first: @medicusfemina (x5 lol) @bittenplush @missmargomuse616 @artificialnocturnc

//Heyyy, friends! <3 Just wanted to give a wee little update: my second book is due with my publisher next Thursday, so I'm going to be pulling back a bit, activity-wise. I went a little nuts this week and did nothing but RP (lol), 'cause I had so many awesome new partners, but now I unfortunately have to be srs professionalTM and only RP during my downtime at work. Please don't think my sudden slowness is due to a lack of interest! I always fluctuate with timeliness on here, and most of my new pals came around during my rapid-fire stage.

//I'm trying to take advantage of this long weekend to work on my latest book (which, ofc, refuses to cooperate with me), so if you see me posting, tell me to go back into my hovel.

//I'll be out of town starting tomorrow (Thurs, 4/2) through Sunday, so if you're waiting on a reply from me, it's in the queue! ❤︎ I've had a few new followers lately too, so if any of you would like to plot, feel free to message me!
