Hello everyone.
          
          You might have noticed, or not, but Chapter Thirty-Four of Guardians has been posted. I know what I said a few months ago about not wanting to post until I've edited Guardians in its entirety, but the truth of it is, well...
          
          I'm angry. Unreasonably, for sure, but angry. For these past months, I've been staring at the first draft of Guardians with contempt. It's an entirely unreasonable disdain, and that is the flaw of someone like me, someone who demands perfection out of himself all the time. I only got seven chapters edited, and I'm still hardly happy with the results.
          
          I feel like I can do so much better, and I tell myself that, but I struggle to act on it. So this is me, acting on it. I'll be editing and posting chapters of the first draft, oddly enough, but I'm doing it for the sole purpose of seeing I finish what I started, even if it's not the masterpiece I began to envision.
          
          And when I have edited and tried my hand at publication, I will start something new, provided I find the inspiration. I do have something in mind, but I'm still debating whether or not it'll be a good idea.
          
          I will not grow as an author sitting around though. There are pages to be filled, and I am inclined to fill them. If anything, posting all of Guardians will be the first big step, showing the world that at least I am capable to finish a story, even if it's not perfect.
          
          Because believe me, there are changes and additions that NEED to be made to Guardians that I almost entirely neglected while I was writing it in the first place.
          
          I've yet to decide when these chapters will be posted. I was never the kind of guy to have a schedule for any of my work, but I'll figure it out and let you all know.
          
          For now, enjoy the rest of Guardians. I hope you all enjoy.

Hey all,
          
          Just like to say apologies for my long hiatus. Now that I've wrapped up college for a bit, I've gotten time to write again. However, I'm not planning on uploading a chapter of Guardians until I've edited it at least once. There are quite a few changes to the story I have planned, so uploading as well as editing would lead to several continuity issues from the reader's end.
          
          I do want to start writing SOMETHING new, but I haven't had any inspiration. Hopefully that will change soon, because I'm itching to write.

At last, after a month and a half, I have a new chapter for you all. Albeit it's another small interlude, but it's only going to pick up from here! Enjoy! :D

Sorry everyone. Today's too hectic to get a chapter up. Got a few exams I need to study for among other things. In other news, I am so close to finishing the first draft of Guardians!

EVERYONE STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND GO READ THE FIRST CHAPTER OF RUNE WIELDERS BY @Laprias BECAUSE SHE'S PHENOMENAL AND DESERVES THE LOVE.

Sorry about no upload yesterday guys! New chapter of Guardians will be up as soon as possible!

One thousand reads.
          
          We finally did it everyone. Guardians went live on Wattpad in May 2016, where it amassed quite a few readers in the first two months. Now, here we are, seven months later, thirty chapters later. When reads became less frequent, I thought about giving up. I thought no one cared to see the end of Guardians, and so, I wanted to stop uploading entirely. But we made it this far, and the ending is getting ever close.
          
          Thank you to everyone who has supported myself and Guardians since I rejoined Wattpad. You are the reason I continue to write, the reason I can find the motivation to close this massive chapter of my life. You're the reason I will see Guardians through to the bitter end.
          
          I hope you will continue on this journey as I finish the story I've set out a year and a half ago to tell. I expect the entire length of Guardians to be around 42-45 chapters, meaning we're getting very close to the climax.
          
          Once again, thank you for all you've done to support Guardians. One thousand reads later, you're the greatest.
          
          Happy Holidays everyone. :D
