Personal thoughts and reflections:
I apologize if the ending was too simple. I didn't know how else to continue. If not, the masseur prank would have been an 'Extra' chapter.
This was the first story in which I wrote smut in. Some parts came naturally. But most parts were through research: reading other bl books and watching bl dramas. Because, well, I just turned legal. And I haven't even had my first kiss yet haha so I wasn't really able to write the scenes as smoothly as I want without research.
I didn't copy whole smut scenes. So if it seems like I copied another author, I am sorry but I didn't. Do tell me and I would rewrite it to avoid any further misunderstandings.I was going to write this story only after my national exams and release it on 31 Dec 2021. But my hands were itching to write it haha so I wrote it over the year and released it slightly earlier than planned.
I hope I was able to convey the feelings of the characters and messages of the story. 😅
Believe it or not, I didn't know there was really a song called Breathe haha (by lauv). I live under a rock.
The original title of the story was "Breathe". But as tribute to Got7's song, Encore, being released despite the group disbanding, I changed the title to "Encore". It fits the context of the books anyways, that Jaebeom returns with a new beginning.
Disclaimers:
A major part of my style of writing is to do research.
I would read interviews, watch videos etc. To build up the plot and/or the profile of the character(s), I would include some of my research.
I may also include some quotes etc that help me in life.
I don't want to offend anyone. If anyone thinks I am plagiarising, I would amend it immediately.
I am in no way taking credit from any of these people.I was so confused while I wrote where Jackson was: Hong Kong or China. As I wrote, I lost track and only got more muddled when I reread haha. I'm not including the whole China vs Hong Kong saga in my book so please understand if I wrote wrongly.
Overall:
Thank you for reading this book and for your support:D
