Author's Notice
April the 24th, 2017
Hello to you all,
As you notice this isn't a new fic, but a new note from yours truly. I want to tell you the reason why I was gone for months and why I haven't updated the new short fic I mentioned in a previous note on December. (Which have been replaced by this note.)
Well then. For months, I lost my interest on writing. Partly because of an block, but the huge reason was what has been happening within my family. I haven't mentioned this in any of author's notes before, but since late autumn 2016, my dad had been in and out of hospital. Just before Christmas, his health took the worse turn. It was tricky for them, but the doctors finally diagnosed and confirmed his illness to be a lymphoma. But that info came a bit too late. On February the 10th my dad passed away. The lymphoma was really aggressive one. His heart was too weak to fight off fever caused by it, and he slept away with no pain at all. (My dad was 68-year-old.) These passing months have been a roller-coaster of mixed emotions for me and my family. Lot of what-ifs and stuff dad left behind.
Little by little, we have moved forward. It's only the matter of time when I will be writing again. Watching new animes and done some reading have helped me a bit. I've been out, seeing my friends and family, spending the time with them.
Now you know.
Thank you all for the favourites, followings and reviews given so far! Sorry for not replying to the reviews.
To answer one question, though: "Where did you get your inspiration to write?"
Hmm... where indeed? Well, mostly I get inspirations from watching animes, reading mangas or other fanfictions. There are moments when my mind just start to think alternative opinions of situations and "what-ifs". Perfect example is my short Haikyuu! fanfic, "Family of Crows". I remember reading a short fanfic, where Kagome was a cousin to one of Haikyuu boys, Hinata. I was re-watching the second season of Haikyuu! again, when I began to think both the fic I read while watching. Instead of Hinata being cousin of Kagome, I changed it so that (young) coach Ukai was Kagome's cousin. (So that I wouldn't start copying other people's fanfics. That is NOT my style.) And there you have it, a fanfic was born!
Sometimes I get ideas just observing my surroundings. My friends also gives me ideas by just being themselves and/or says something that changes into an idea.
That's it for now. Thank you for your time reading this. Hopefully I get my inspiration back in time.
Until then, bye~!
