Author's Note
Hey everyone,
First off, I just want to say a huge thank you for all the incredible support you've shown me and my stories Changes and Saikyo so far. Your comments, theories, and love for the story have truly meant the world to me.
Unfortunately, I've been swamped lately preparing for my high school finals. Balancing studying and writing has been tougher than I expected, so I've had to put the story on pause for now. Finals are a big milestone, and I must focus on them.
The good news is that once I'm done with finals and (hopefully!) start my first semester of college in August, I plan to get back to writing and updating regularly. I'm super excited to dive back into Naruto's adventures and continue building this story with all of you.
Thank you so much for your patience and understanding. Your support keeps me motivated, and I can't wait to share what's next for our favourite Ninja.
See you in (most probably) August!
Regards,
