Really nice keep it up btw can i ask you something??

With it being around a week or so from the publication of the final chapter i'll be making for The Lost Republic in what will be a long time;
          I want to make one more Intermission chapter. 
          
          Any sort of Questions or Commentary that you'd have about the story, or my art, are all very welcome, and can be said below, which i'll respond to. I'd really appreciate it.
          
          I don't see myself going back to the series for more than a year, 
          so now is the time if there ever was any to say something. I know there are people who read it but don't interact or comment. 
          
          It'd mean a lot considering I've made over 200 pages of free content over the last few years.

I know I probably won't reach many people by saying this but anyone who hasn't read her works is severely missing out.
          GO READ (and comment if you do!)  @ApeculiarChild2's books!
          She writes a lot about Hawai'i and Hawaiian history, and trust me when I say even if you don't care about that, She will make you care if you give her books a chance.
          
          Where Mountain Meets Sea is the first in her series and while it is long it is AMAZING and DETAILED and SO WELL THOUGHT OUT.  Angel has put so much soul into all of her books I wish she had more love and recognition for it.
          If you enjoy that, she has SO MANY OTHERS IN THE SERIES. You will never be bored again. 
          
          if you don't have time for a long story Check out her short stories and oneshots! All of those are also absolutely lovely and deserve more attention.
          
          If you choose to check them out (I sincerely hope you do she's such a great author) tell her Lost sent you :D

Hyvää Joulua!
          Happy holidays to anyone celebrating and hope you have a great new year!

I won a writing contest.
          I did not expect this but I am very happy right now

every once in a while I realize how insane it is that I'm on the last two chapters of TLR (prior to Hiatus)
          absolutely crazy, felt like i'd never get here. and now look at me.

Wondering if I should make an intermission chapter.
          Not much longer till its hiatus, so seems to make sense.
          
          Any questions, comments, or requests are accepted in the replies below.
          if I get enough (three or more) i'll make one.

Nice place 

If my estimates on my length of work are right
          The Gilded Cage will be back sometime early next year.
          figured i'd throw that out somewhere. want to get to a breaking point in TLR first.

Have gotten another laptop to work on, but due to the time gap between working on TLR there will be some differences in coloring and style in the next TLR chapter, due to the break and differences between computers.
          
          I am trying to make daily progress, however
