Even though you don't watch Gossip Girl anymore, please say you will still write BATB? You've created characters and storylines that I care about as much as if they were a tv show. Please update it soon, thanks Shelby! xoxo

Yes, I’m still writing BATB and I may watch the final season of Gossip Girl… if it isn’t too terrible. I would like to see where the characters end up, I suppose. I’ll do my best to update soon. Sorry about the wait, but I’ve been super busy with real life lol. 

XOXO - S

  
Just a thought because you said you would like to get BATB published you could do a lex and Charlie book involving all of them and instead of giving them different names ask permission fron the writer o use her characters ?? Xx

I would, but I doubt it’s permission I could attain. I’ll think of something though :)

  
is jack going to rape blair? or is she going to have sex with him willingly?

Jack is not going to rape Blair. However, I can’t answer the second question just yet… You shall have to wait and see ;) 

XOXO - S

I’m working on it!

I’m not really sure. To be honest, BATB took on a life of it’s own. I don’t even know what happened looking back on it. I guess the story took over me, rather than I it! 

  
Not that I want it to or anything, but, are you planning on ending the story any time soon? It is so good, and I wish it could go on forever, but all good things must come to an end. If you are planning to soon, how soon? Just so I can be prepared :'(

In all honesty, I have enough storylines planned for it to go on for a very long time and a good while. However, as I’m getting older there of course is always the possibility that I would need to end the story sooner than expected, but I promise to give it a good ending if so! I have also thought or recently ending it because my friends and family want me to get off fanfiction and try to get something published. I would even love to take BATB, twist it and turn it into something more original, and try to have it published! Boy, wouldn’t that be something! And then I wouldn’t have to let go of my beloved second generation characters for the most part! 

  
i need your fanfiction. <3 it's like air to me...

Why thank you… I appreciate such kind words on your part :) 

  
Will you update BATB ?

Of course! Only in good time, my friend. 

  
Hello Shelby, i like you fanfictions so much and BATB is my favourite, and i wanted to ask the spoilers about Chuck and Blair in BABT. What will happen with Chuck's health ,and when Chuck and Blair will get together? Thank you for wraiting this amaizing fanfic.

Chuck’s health is in decline because he is not taking care of himself. This is not exactly something he is doing by mistake though, but a new form of self destruction for him. As for when Chuck and Blair will get back together with one another… you will have to wait and see. 

  
Hey it's good to have you back! I absolutly love lex and charlie... i am obcesed. What's in store for them and will they ever get back together as the awesome couple they are (you created them all in your brilliant mind amazing)?

Always love to hear from a Chex fan! As for what’s in store for them… Well, I don’t want to give too much away ;) I will say that if you’re wondering whether or not they’ll ever get back together… they’re Charlie and Lex. They haven’t been good at avoiding each other since they met. Together or apart, they are always involved with one another in some way. Do hold on tight though at the moment because this will be a bumpy ride for them!
