Hi hey hello, 

With the news of Tapas closing officially in the end of March 2027, I decided it would be best to step away early. My stories will be available to read until Sunday, October 4th. My profile will then stay existing until the end of October; long enough for me to catch up and support a few more stories. I would stay longer, but with the frequency of news and/or community-driven anger bursts and freakouts (which are all aboslutely understandable), I need to step back for my mental health. I really struggled removing the original version of book 1 of A Crownes Game - that singular book really blossomed into something incredible, hasn't it? 

I appreciate each and every one of you so, so so much <3 I know I said it before but I spent a great three years here, going fom someone who was shy about writing to a part of a dynamic community. You guys are awesome, and I cannot thank you enough for giving ACG a chance <3 I hope you enjoyed even a fraction as much as I enjoyed writing it!  

And Tapas staff; I don't know if you will read this, but you guys are amazing. Thank you for doing your best, for giving creators a chance, and for giving our stories such a warm home. I have been here since August 22nd, 2023, and not only learned a lot about writing, my characters, and got inspired, but also met an amazing community who I hope to never lose. 

But! This is not the end of Mirym, Ezra, Calixa, Lila and the others! Of course not, I could never let them go! Instead, I am working hard on uploading the newest version of the chapters on Pinya and Patreon! Patreon has 3 support tiers, but I'll be making the base version of ACG free - early access and bonus content are for the support tiers, and I have a lot lined up for that. 

I urge you to...

1. Support Tapas creators and readers alike; many of us don't know what's next and have been really shaken up by this. 

2. Find the platform(s) your favorite creators are moving to and follow them! Many of us are moving to Pinya, for instance, which is a small platform created by someone who was once a Tapas creator! So far, the vibes are immaculate :) 

3. Check out my Carrd in the author comments? ^^ There you'll find everywhere you can find my work 

This sucks. But I hope we can all focus on making our stories bloom elsewhere. 

And yes, of course, the pun was intended. You know me by now <3 

Thank you thank you thank you
Tiv <3
