Dear Readers,
I didn't think I'd be drafting a note like this ever, especially as writing is my home, but life is what happens to us when we are busy making other plans. I posted a chapter after a long time yesterday. And I agree it wasn't one of my best days.
Please don't take it as a justification, as I don't mean to justify anything, but it has always been my policy to be honest and transparent with my readers.
I have been writing about Manan for 1.5 years. I am tired. My work pressure has more than tripled in the last 4 months. I don't want to sound boastful, but I doubt if anyone else in my place would have posted anything at all. I don't study in a school or college, I am not a fresher either. I am a mid-level executive in the corporate managing multi-million dollar projects. Even outside work, I have three other engagements, besides managing a house all by myself. I have a personal life. My dad is visiting me and I realize I don't have time even to go out with him, because on weekends, I am stuck to my desk writing. I am writing other stories too. I have been under pressure to post for KYY because I hadn't done it in a long time.
So yes, all the above reasons have contributed to the story gradually losing its grip and I accept that without any hesitation , with absolute humility.
Many people have written many things. Some have said its getting boring, some asked why another villain, some have even suggested I close the story. I appreciate your candid feedback, I admire you have the guts to speak out your mind, and I know many of you mean well. But I also have a question.
Do each of you top every exam you have ever appeared in life? Then why is it such a big deal if I write one or 5 crappy chapters. When you fail in one exam, do your parents tell you to drop out of school or college? How then is it justified for you to advise me to close the story if I flunk at one chapter? When you can't have the patience, perseverance or commitment to write a 6 line comment on each chapter, when you don't even bother to read my other story, how do you have the heart to order me how to write, how often to write, what to write and what not? Do you understand the meaning of the word 'trust' or 'confidence'? If people started giving up on others as fast as you are giving up on me, the world would have gone stagnant. If you have your exams, and festivals, engagements and you have excuses for not reading regularly, why is it expected that I will always stick to my commitments, even at the cost of my job or health.
It's a small incident. But it speaks volummes about the world we live in. The world that just expects, without giving anything in return. Its my story and I owe no explanation to anyone. I can wrap it any day I want, I can disappear the moment I feel I have had enough. I don't write for votes and comments, so not having them won't push me into depression. But that's a choice only I have. I write because writing is my passion. And besides, you call it my virtue or my vice, I hear everyone out but only do what my conscience asks me to.
I won't stop writing because you tell me to, I won't end this story because you have lost interest in reading it further. I won't change the plot because it doesn't make you smile. Its ok if I get zero likes. I will only end when the story demands it. Having said that, everyone has high and low phases. Everyone goes through harrowed times. And if you can't back someone up during their bad times, you'd better not expect them to remember you in their best times. I know of about 15 people here, who love me as a person, for whom I am more than just a manan story writer and who check on me outside Wattpad. They have the right to flag if they think I need to stop and rethink. But what about the others?
I leave the question open for you to think. I am not upset or discouraged, just a little pissed off. I don't know when I will update this story next and please feel free to unfollow me or KYYS3 if we are not living up to your expectations anymore.
