Most people don't read this stuff but I have a little update on the next chapter of SYA since it's taking a while:
Okay. I have not started writing it yet. I apologize for that, but I also had a lot on my plate the last few months.
What I HAVE done is outline the next few chapters after this one since this one has been a huge block before the plot gets going and I didn't have time in the past few months.
However, I think there will be a distinct improvement in both the quality of my art and writing due to the time I've taken for myself these past few months. I have been put through an academic wringer and I am emerging on the other side with a lot of new writing skills I'm transferring from academic writing to creative writing for the first time. Similarly, while I have not been completing any digital artwork, I have finished an entire sketchbook in this time and there has been a noticeable improvement to my art as well.
Please do not expect the next chapter to be some spectacular masterpiece, it's honestly just a transition chapter that I need to get done so that I can finally move on to the good shit. But....the next few chapters are going to have a ton of illustrations since I'm feeling very inspired now that I'm free from academic burden.
I presume the chapter will not be coming out before or on SYA's 2 year anniversary on June 6th. I am graduating a few days before this and the month of May is full of nonstop action. But I'm done with my exams and I'm finally free once more to write!
Stay tuned, I have a lot planned <3
