          First up, if you *haven't* gotten around to it yet, please make sure to *FULLY* catch up on my latest announcements, particularly the one from late last Sunday that included the poll results, book line-up, & 4 *very important* questions that I'm hoping to get more feedback on soon, as well as yesterday's final announcement regarding my latest "More Than Fate" chapter debut! <33
          ~ ~ ~
          Now, for my plan of action for today-
          
          ~ Make a decent bout of headway in crafting more dialogue threads for the penultimate "VII" chapter.
          
          ~ Eat lunch & make a dent in my comment reply catch-up spree, likely in "VII" and/or "More Than Fate".
          
          ~ Try my best to finish writing the rough drafts for "Of Schemes & Sparks"' 'Chapter 2- Roommates 101', as well as "The Scarlet Start"'s 'Chapter 1- Calm As Clockwork' & 'Chapter 2- Briny Beach Blues'.
          
          ~ Pop back on here to catch up on any new messages and/or question comments sent my way, & to give you all a progress status update.
          ~ ~ ~
          I dearly hope everyone's week is going well! Wishing you the very best in your online & offline endeavors! Only dive back into engaging with my books & announcements when *you* are in the right headspace & have a good window of time to settle in with 'em without any distractions! <333

          ~ ~ ~
          I've just finished & debuted a new chapter of "More Than Fate", 'Act I'. Just like my format in "Of Schemes & Sparks", I've placed it directly after the 'Prologue' chapter & before 'Chapter 1'. <333
          
          Do *NOT* read & engage with 'Act I' of "More Than Fate" unless you have *at least* fully read & engaged with its 'Intro', 'Soundtrack Snippets', 'Characters', & 'Prologue' chapters {in *THAT* order} *already*. <3
          ~ ~ ~
          After I take a break for lunch, I will jump back into my "More Than Fate" writing in its ever-anticipated 'Chapter 13- Deserved Delights'! <3333
          
          I'm so freaking psyched that my laser-focus book line-up schedule is *LEGITIMATELY* working out thus far!!! <33333
          ~ ~ ~
          Stay tuned for more progress updates, my darlings, & Happy Reading! <33

Once again, for those of you who *haven't* engaged with it yet, I made an announcement late Sunday night detailing the poll result's of Friday's question, my book-focusing line-up for this week, &, at the end of said announcement, I put *4* very important questions I want *ALL* of you to *fully* read & reply to once you have the appropriate window of time & headspace to do so.
          
          Thus far, I've only gotten feedback on it from one sweet soul. I'm hoping that will change sooner rather than later.

          ~ ~ ~
          On the brighter side of things, I started off my book progress for the week quite nicely yesterday with some writing in a few upcoming SB chapters' rough drafts! <33
          
          Today, I'll be putting more focus on the other 2 book listed in the 'Monday-Tuesday' section of my line-up for the week, which will--hopefully--be an even sweeter bout of progress than what I achieved yesterday. <333
          ~ ~ ~
          Alright, that's all I've got for now, my sweetsparks. Stay safe, stay hydrated, & stay tuned for more updates. <3

@SkullantacySmith Yes, ma'am, here's hoping!!! <3333

Hi, angel! I just quickly scanned your recent announcements and I’m glad you were able to get the poll results and make good writing progress! I have a quick question. My five year anniversary on Wattpad is coming up in a few weeks and I’m wanting to give some people on here shoutouts. I was wondering if you cared if I tag you in my rant book and message board? If not, I understand <3

SunsetMercer

@sfridley Good to know; I'll keep an eye out for those notifs. <3
            
            Of course, love. <33

Alright, loves. Friday's book poll question is officially *CLOSED*. In the paragraphs below, you'll find the poll results & my final decisions on which projects to laser-focus on in the weeks to come. As always, take as much time as you need to *fully* read & reply. <3 @MDjarin17 @AthenaPersephone9 @SkullantacySmith @Dandan0_3 @Marie_jkkkkkkk @UrGirlADHD @starisdepressed @eggywegggyi2 @E_Walsh @sfridley @B1ana_Vack3r
          ~ ~ ~
          The results:
          
          ~ Opt. 1 {"TSS", "VII"'s finale, & "MTF"} & Opt. 2 {"MitM", "OS&S", & "SB"} *tied* for 1st place with 3 votes each.
          
          ~ Opt. 3 {"FStS", "TFS", & "WIH"} & Opt. 4 {"T&T", "VIII" *brainstorming*, & "TSS"} *tied* for 2nd place with 2 votes each.
          ~ ~ ~
          Now, for how I'm going to proceed focus-wise based off of the results above...
          
          ~ Today {5/11} & Tuesday- "More Than Fate", "Sunset Boulevard", & "Magic in the Making".
          
          ~ Wednesday & Thursday- "The Scarlet Start", "Vault II"'s 2-part finale, & "Of Schemes & Sparks".
          
          ~ Friday & Saturday- "From Shadows to Starlight", "Toil & Trouble", & "Who I Have".
          
          ~ Sunday- "The Faded Star", "Vault III" brainstorming, & "The Scarlet Start", once again.
          ~ ~ ~
          Next Monday {5/18}, I'll post a 'how are we feeling?' announcement to get a decent gauge of where *everyone* stands by that point & what they'll *MOST* want to see some major progress on during *that* week. <33
          ~ ~ ~
          For right now, though, I'm just asking you guys to answer the questions below for me. As always, reply in a *respectful, emotionally mature* manner & do *NOT* rush through 'em. <3
          
          1) What do you think of the 'Lizzie's laser-focusing' book line-up for this week; any *concerns* to voice and/or *chapter milestones* you're *hoping* I'll achieve by the end of this week, and if so, *what & why*?
          
          2) Did the book poll's final results catch you by surprise, & *why/why not*?
          
          3) Are there *questions* for me regarding *any* of the books mentioned above?
          
          4) Do you need a *catch-up list* from me of my books you've been reading?
          
          ~Love, Lizzie

SunsetMercer

@SkullantacySmith 
            
            1) Melodies to my heart & soul, angel! <333
            
            2) Valid; I was pretty surprised by how even the split in votes ended up being, too. <3
            
            3) Fair enough. As always, feel free to reach out if that changes, darling! <333
            
            4) Of course, I'd be happy to! So, once you finish catching up on "More Than Fate"'s current chapters, my first book rec for you would be "From Shadows to Starlight {A More Than Anything saga-centric one-shot & imagine series collection}". After that, my next two recs would be "Of Schemes & Sparks {Carlos De Vil x OC}" {Book 1 of The Spark Saga}, aka, my Disney Descendants series, & "The Scarlet Start {Book I}" of The Curious Chronicles, my ASOUE saga. <3333

            1. I love the really organised plan you have for yourself. Looking forward to whatever progress you make and how it turns out. I know you'll keep us updated and those updates are always great to see. 
            
            
            2. I'm just happy with the poll results to be honest. I'm surprised by the draws, but that just means the possibility of more updates from you, which is always a treat. 
            
            3. Not at the moment. 
            
            4. Not a catch-up list, but if you have the time to give me recommendations of what to read next after More Than Fate, they would be much appreciated. ♥️

@AthenaPersephone9 Agreed, I'm quite excited to see how this next chapter unfolds, too, & I'm crossing my fingers that this week's book line-up pans out to be as satisfyingly productive as possible! <33
            
            Yeah, as usual, I figured there would be some measure of split in you guys' votes, though I was *NOT* expecting it to be such an even one! Very glad to hear my decided line-up's being well-received!!! <333
            
            Yes, ma'am, aside from the latest 3 chapters of "Quotation Courtyard", you're fully caught up on all of the other projects of mine you've come along for the ride of thus far! <3333
            
            I hope your week has gotten off to a beautiful start! Wishing an enchanting week for us all! <33333

          My current established deadline for replies to Friday's book poll question here on my message board--11:30 PM tonight--is only *4 hours & 57 minutes* away.
          
          Thus far, I've only gotten answers on my latest book poll question from *5* lovely souls- Eves, Melia, Elaine, Eggy, & Deliah. <3
          
          However, I'd very much like to get more feedback on it from *at least* one or two more of you, my darling audience members.
          
          So, if any sincere souls *not* named above would still like to participate in that question, I encourage them to find a decent window of time to either *fully* reply to the book-centric question I posed on Friday or *respectfully* request a deadline extension from me if they believe they'll have time to engage with the poll *BEFORE* the end of this upcoming week.
          ~ ~ ~
          On the other side of the coin, if *no one else* wishes to participate & answer the question, please let me know, so I can tally up the votes, sort out which named books hold the *most* interest with everyone, & post the results with my final decisions. <3
          ~ ~ ~
          Looking forward to seeing how this plays out & hope everyone will enjoy "Quotation Courtyard"'s current slew of chapters once they gather enough *knowledge* of my current sagas to start that adventure or are ready to dive back into its depths, respectively! <3333
          
          Stay safe, & may everyone's weekend close out on a gorgeous note! <33333
          
          ~Love, always & forever, Lizzie

          So far, I've still only heard answers from 5 of you on Friday's book poll question here on my board. If *anyone* who has *NOT* already replied to it wishes to do so, they only have until 11:30 PM {EST} tonight, *UNLESS* 1 or more souls who *sincerely* require a deadline extension to *FULLY* answer the poll question *respectfully* request one from me, preferably *BEFORE* the currently established deadline. <3
          ~ ~ ~
          Last thing; if you *missed* my previous announcement, make sure you read & reply to it once you have a *decent* window of time & the *right* headspace to do so! It holds some *VERY* exciting news from yours truly!!! <3333333

          It's my pleasure to announce that Chapters 9, 10, & 11 within "Quotation Courtyard" have officially been finished & debuted for your reading & theorizing entertainment!!! <33333
          ~ ~ ~
          Also, I'd like to apologize for any brief chaos caused in your notifs somewhat earlier tonight. Your girl, in her ecstatic flurry of serotonin overload, briefly forgot to include the proper TW/CWs in the opening writer's notes of Chapter 9, so I had to unpublish Chapters 9 & 10, put the proper trigger/content warnings in place, then re-publish both chapters, along with Ch 11. <3
          ~ ~ ~
          So, all in all, I'm on Cloud 9 with the immeasurable pride & joy of having successfully finished & posted 3 frick-frackin' chapters in a row. :D <3333

          And, since it's nearly 3 AM in my corner of the world, I'm going to sign off, get myself geared up for bed, & cheerfully waltz off to dreamland. <33333
