Aloha!
          
          I wanted to take the time to sadly share that I'm currently dealing with writer's block and won't be able to update today for Karu: Journey Beyond Tales (Rewrite Version). I will do my best to send one out as soon as possible. It's been rough these couple of weeks.

Dear @Itsykaru,
          
          I am writing to share how much I truly enjoyed reading Karu: Journey beyond tales 
          As a fan of the Beastworld genre, I found your interpretation to be one of the most vivid and immersive I’ve ever encountered. 
          
          Thank you for creating such a rich world for readers to get lost in. I’m so hyped for the new version! I can’t wait to see the changes you’ve made and how Karu’s journey evolves this time around. 
          
          Thank you for putting so much work into refining this story; it’s clear how much you care about this world.
          
          Counting down the days for the next update!
          
          Best regards,
          @jigglypuffbae

            Hahahaha! Oh my goodness, Jigglypuff? That's sooo cute! I've never watched or played Pokémon games, so this is my first time hearing that! I'll need to hop on the train someday and watch it.
            
            I'm really excited to rewrite Karu and am currently writing the next chapter as I type this. I have so many ideas I want to incorporate this time, now that I have a better understanding of how to pace the story. 
            
            I can't promise the editing for Yasmin: Etches Of Scales won't burn me out, but it'll be worth it once it's done! ʕ⁠´⁠•⁠ᴥ⁠•⁠`⁠ʔ
            
            And looking forward to seeing you in 2029 with my hero/villain stories!

            "Haha, no problem! Jigglypuff is one of the most iconic Pokémon—you'll definitely love the series when you get to it. So glad to hear you're excited about rewriting Karu! Take your time with the editing for Yasmin: Etches of Scales, we’ll be here whenever it’s ready!"

            Aloha, jigglypuffbae 
            
            I love your username as a start. It reminds me of marshmallows and that pink character, known to seemingly open its mouth and inhale delicious foods with red feet, if I recall correctly. Was it Kirby? I can't remember. Very cute, though. ʕ⁠ ⁠ꈍ⁠ᴥ⁠ꈍ⁠ʔ
            
            Thank you SO MUCH for reading Karu. It means a lot to me to hear that you found the interpretation I have done to be the most vivid and immersive one you've ever encountered. Hoping the rewrite will meet those same standards as the original! My writing has improved immensely during my time authoring Yasmin: Etches Of Scales, and the editing & rewriting are brutal at the moment.  
            
            As a fan of the Beastworld genre, I wanted to write a story with all the elements I wanted to see — one that felt both realistic and fictional, with intense emotions that would lead readers to receive answers to questions never considered or left buried in their minds. However, what matters most to me is providing an escape from our reality, where burdens too heavy for the heart to bear are lifted and put aside temporarily.

            If you have any questions or concerns, you can message here. Anything urgent or requiring privacy, you can message me on my IG account (itsykaru) for a quicker response. 
            
            I hope to see your username float around in the future when more Beastworld stories are released! Just a heads up that I plan to branch out to other genres that I think you'd be interested in some time in 2029. How about a world where heroes and villains exist, and a bunch of villains overthrows a country, making it illegal for people to act morally until a hero from another universe arrives and changes everything? Then another series with the same concept, but with a twist. If that's up your alley, you can come back anytime when that gets released. 
            
            Have fun reading!

          I can't wait for Karu: Journey Beyond Tales (Rewritten) to be released soon. I'm leaving this here because I had previously promised 5 chapters. However, due to unforeseen events in my personal life, I was unable to have them prepared in time for the release, which will have only three chapters. The remaining two chapters will be published as soon as possible this week. 
          
          The story will be updated once a week with a chapter on Saturdays (HAST - 10:00am). If I happen to have extra time while working on Yasmin Series, a second chapter will be released as a surprise. 
          
          Mahalo for your understanding!

@shawnabowman40 Thank you for the concern! With recent messaging from other readers, I've decided I'll keep it published permanently this time.

@shawnabowman40 I’ve had a reader go beyond their way to reach out and ask,  so now I’m questioning if I should just keep it up this time. I did extend the date for a couple more days as I think upon this. <3

            Well obviously because it’s amazing. Personally, it’s hard to find a beast world story with interesting plots that is carefully structured and doesn’t pull on one’s nerves. Your story is so refreshing ( When theres no free hanging Tatas being thrown around (dawg I was stressed)). 
            So don't be suprised bbyg, your creation literally had me acting like a wanted mental ward runaway sometimes. (It’s a compliment istg). Also had me ran a marathon in my room cuz your story does wonder in making people very productive. 
            Xoxo

Hello will Karu not come back or it will after you make the changes that satisfy you? Regardless your writing is amazing. 

Itsykaru

@UnhingedOddball Karu will be coming back once I complete Yasmin: Etches Of Scales, which is very soon. The rewrite will be posted up (updates will vary) with the original that will only stay up for a 1.5 week before being taken down.☺️

Just found my very first beast world story I wrote in 2022: "Witch Doctor In The Beast World." Anyone who read that and was confused as to why that suddenly disappeared, I'm questioning my 19-year old self, too. She had a good plot idea. 
          
          A protagonist by the name Emmie who worked as a doctor that died from falling out of the hospital building. She gets found by a tiger tribe after killing a "Scorfa pig," but then escapes and meets a snake beastman, who ends up sacrificing his life to buy her time to escape when the tiger tribe finds them. She ends up living alone long enough to make a tree house with the front door made of crystals and earns a nickname as a "witch doctor" because someone came across her doing modern stuff. She goes on this journey of healing people using modern medicine and earns her first mate who was a "cow beastman" (he's a bull. My 19-year old self was stubborn in calling him a cow.) 
          
          
          Should I rewrite it?

@MakanCheese123 Thank you! My 19-year-old self was cooking way before our time!
