Happy New Year Ladies & Jellyspoons! · 11:10pm Jan 1st, 2018
2017, what a year.
What a bloody year.
I can easily say this year has been my most eventful in all 19 years of my life.
Believing in connecting with my followers, I thought I'd list all the crazy shizzle I've been through this year so you might know a little more about the author you love!
So, here we go!
- I've been at the centre of a court case. (Don't worry, I wasn't the accused, I was the victim )
- For the first time, I've gone to another country all on my own. I flew off to the USA all by myself.
- I went through a pretty painful breakup, (two year relationship, yowch...)
- I met someone... (↑contradictory right?↑) ((It was months later))
- With 'said' someone, I travelled all of the UK with her on a journey of self-discovery.
- On 'said' journey, I discovered that I could achieve more than I give myself credit for.
- Battled severe mental health issues which have almost taken my life on numerous occasions, Depression and PTSD to be specific...
- Survived 'said' battles so far... Woohoo! 💪
- Two of my family sadly passed away, there are only 3 people in my bloodline left, my mother, brother, and I. (I need to breed before the Horncastles die out... )
- I was offered a role in the upcoming "Han Solo: A Star Wars Story" movie. (Being in the USA, I had to turn it down, but still, I was offered a role in STAR WARS for crying out loud!!!
- I had the pleasure of meeting my first Titan's Orb fan IRL, bumped into me in Costa Coffee and asked for a selfie. I feel special.
- While travelling the UK, I suffered from a heart attack while in Scotland. My heart has been playing up for the past 2 years after a very unfortunate overdose on painkillers, I get chest pains from time to time, and in Scotland, the ol' ticker decided to try kicking the bucket.
Thankfully, there was assistance at hand, and I didn't die. MORE TITAN'S ORB CHAPTERS! WOOOO!
How's THAT for a year...?
2017 has certainly given me a handful.
Despite all the craziness that has gone on, I can happily say I'm going into 2018 with my head held high, and with a loving, supporting woman at my side to keep me strong. Who knows what this year will bring...?
All I know is that I'm 20 years old on the 9th of January, and that's f00kin' TERRIFYING!!!
I hope you all have a simply splendid year, and I would love to hear your stories of 2017 if you wish to share them, I want to connect with you all, and hope you'll stick around to enjoy The Titan's Orb while I slowly pump out chapters.
(sorry for the wait between each chapter, as you can see, my year's been pretty hectic...)
Adios my friends!
Sincerely,
- Callum Horncastle
Dude, let me just tell you, you are awesome. I'm sorry for all the bad things but at least you came out a stronger person. And I'm happy for all the good things that have happened to you. you are the best writer in my personal opinion, the only other fanfic I have read that is almost just as good as Titans Orb is the fic, FIM: OTR, friendship is magic off the record. which was a long time my most favorite fic ever, now the things you have written have tied, and even gone beyond. But thats what I think, I hope your journey thorough life is a good one, with any obstacle small enough to get over. ( I'm not too good with words, so some of what I type may seem weird or awkward) anyway, hope you have a January my good man, would love to meet you just like that other lucky person, haha. anyway, bye for now!
In regards to my previous comment, I think I have said the same things before, which I apologize for
