Let's Talk (Hiatus)

I said I was never gonna drop, and I intend to keep that promise...

But life hasn't been doing me any favors. My promotion came with a serious decrease in pace for this story. I'm sure you noticed. It also burned me out faster. Most days I came home with less than two hours of free time and didn't even want to open Inkstone. Then I went on vacation in the summer with my family, and it became harder and harder to come back. It started feeling like work, and I stopped feeling like I was making something people enjoy. I didn't want to come slogging back here after being exhausted, just to post something you guys have to slog through either.

So what's the plan?

Hiatus for this one. I was thinking about rewriting this multiple times, because I started this as a hobby when I had plenty of free time and loved doing it but then I wanted to clean up what I had made and add more life and color where I could. There were things that I didn't think about until it was too late that I also wanted to fix. If I end up rewriting or just continuing, you won't see it until it's complete. And believe me, this one was supposed to be close to 500 chapters, so that might be a while. Serializing chapters was part of the way to my slow death, it was you guys waiting around for chapters that didn't do much half the time and me feeling bad about that until it started to feel like my other job.

So I'll complete this in private before posting it, and I might also focus on another work to clear my head. Fun fact, I gave up on the HunterXHunter arc because I decided that OPM would do better as the next world while filling the same role. I have more than a couple of ideas that were distracting me from this one. I don't want to end up like Jordinio who never finishes a work, so you won't see it until it is.

TLDR? Don't keep me in your library, it'll just take up space for a while. Not that I'll tell you guys how to live your life or anything, haha. And I'm sorry, I guess. I know I don't owe you guys anything but I really enjoyed seeing the ones who stuck around happy to see me post.

Anyway, I'm off to try to recharge my seratonin. I love you guys! Most of you, anyway. And I'll see you later.
