Cinderella's Ghost

Author's Note

Hello, my dear readers!

Phew. This is my first time creating an extra chapter just for what I have to say.

Anyway, thank you all who have decided to pick this book up! It means a lot to me. Yes, even the silent readers. What's most important to me is that all of you, who have read from beginning to end, found this book enjoyable.

I considered this book as sort of my comeback on Wattpad. I hadn't written properly for months (argh, 'Ireale's Primcess' was such a big mistake), you see, and had decided to return with this story. 'Cinderella's Ghost' was a story thought up of about two years ago, and I was glad to finally write and post it up for others to read. There was a part of me who wanted to put this up for the Wattys, and it was one of the entries for some time, but I decided to pull it out of the Awards, because I didn't think this book was good enough. I somewhat enjoyed writing it, but I didn't feel as proud as compared to when I was writing my previous works, especially 'Disguises' and 'Ireale's Crown'.  If Wattpad had changed their criteria for the Wattys back in those years, I would have entered them without a second thought (in the past, only stories completed within the year could enter, if I remember correctly). Plus, I wanted an equal footing. I only started this book in June, while others started their entry maybe early this year? Last year? The number of readers are not even close, so my chance to win is also diminished. And that's the second reason I decided to pull out of Wattys 2016. Even if I entered and I won, I don't think I'll feel that sense of accomplishment.

I'll be writing still, of course, behind the scenes. It'll be my first time writing drafts before deciding whether to share it on Wattpad. Now I feel like 'Cinderella's Ghost' is only a warm-up. ^^;

Keep writing/reading passionately, guys! Hope you guys will miss Ellyn and Jarell~

P.S. I have proofread the first ten chapters. I might or might not proofread the last nine so... yep.
