Okay... It's been a while that I have updated anything since July... I would usually start joyfully with each chapter, even notices for when I'm being slow. However, I won't lie to my readers about how I feel, and as most of you can probably tell by now, it is not anything positive.
It's been a rough time for me since August, as I am sure a certain few of my readers know what has happened to me since then. I was planning on uploading the next chapter on this story's one year anniversary, but I have been having quite the streak of bad luck as a bunch of incidents have been going on in my life, not allowing me to be able to continue writing my story or even update it for that matter. To be honest, it would be a miracle if I can get a new chapter up sometime before the year ends. So what I am trying to say here is that while I don't have as much free time as I do before, that does not mean I will stop posting whenever I can. I thank all of you understand my situation and are patient with me, and for those who keep demanding me to hurry up with a new chapter rather rudely, all I can say is be thankful that you are not in my shoes.
I live in a house with a family that does not support me for who I am and what I like and to be honest, I usually typed most of my chapters and uploaded them in secret. It's been harder on me in recent months though and I have to hide my depression from them as they are not supportive in that aspect if you catch my drift. It actually amazes me that I have been hiding my depression well for the past two years from them because I know that they would just call me crazy and continue on as if nothing is wrong. In fact I can't even act as myself in my very own home... though a home is supposed to feel... well... homey if you know what I mean, so I guess it's more of a place I live in than a home. To be honest, The only reason why I am still alive right now and not, well... dead by suicide via depression is believe it or not, partially because of you guys.
You guys, along with the internet and my cousins, are the reason as to why I do what I do. You guys make me feel welcome to the world and boost up what is left of my near nonexistent self-esteem and confidence, genuinely making me not like a worthless waste of space and someone who contributes positively to your entertainment. So I wholeheartedly express this with all of my heart and soul, thank you for reading and liking my rather 'eh' story, for making me feel proud in my hobby, for actually being part of the thing that is keeping me going in this bleak world. That is all I have to say and I'll put up the next chapter whenever I can, so sorry to all of those who were expecting a new chapter, trust me... I know your pain. I hope you all can understand my situation as to why I haven't been able to upload a new chapter and I hope you all have a pleasant day ahead of you.
Sincerely from your pessimistic, yet somewhat polite fanfic writer,
