To fellow readers of Second Lead Syndrome (SLS), I will be posting the sequel of the story soon, so stay tuned. The story focuses on Veau and Eona; their past, present and future. 
          	
          	The sequel wraps the entire saga of Second Lead Syndrome story. All characters that appeared in the first book will definitely appear in the sequel!
          	
          	The story won't have as much chapters as the first book, hopefully, but you will be in for another long ride. Thank you for supporting me all this time. I hope you will enjoy this story as well. Happy holidays to everyone, and a happy new year!

I can't seem to forget Cecil and Xue—my lovely parents. So, I'm here again to reread my parents story for the fourth time. I love you so much, Rinkou. You're the reason why I keep having snot and tears in the middle of the night, and please, don't perish, you still need to make more stories for me to read mweheh

Rinkou

@Saiyiiiii_ The way I laughed at your message while I was at work, nsjfjdjdj. Thank you so much, though, I'm not sure if I should be proud that I am causing you misery in the middle of the night, HAHAHA. 
            
            I won't perish, and just in time, I'll be releasing the sequel of the story real soon. Happy reading and happy new year! I love ya too ♥️

Hi, I am fan of one of your old works Peach, I don want to ask will it be ever updated, I know that's  a question some people are asking.

Rinkou

@Pink-_-bear Hi there, I'm so sorry for the late reply, omygosh. I actually want to continue updating the story, but I'm too busy working right now. Sadly, I might have to give up writing on the story as a whole (': 
            
            It'll probably take me god knows how long to go back to writing the story since I have other priorities to focus on now, other than other stories I am focused on.

Hello author, 'Second Lead Syndrome' is on my reading list, but I forgot what it’s about. Just wondering, does it have a happy ending, or is it still incomplete and waiting for a sequel? I’m not in the mood for ongoing stories right now loool

wordsandwoes

@Rinkou Okay, got it. It's a safe standalone then. Thanks xx

@wordsandwoes Yes, it's completed with happy ending. The sequel hasn't been released yet but it's about another character.

Hi folks, I have been noticing a rise in spammers being creative in their approach. They start commenting like: 
          
          1. "I have been immersed from the first line to the last. Can I get any of your socials to contact you?" 
          2. "I read your story and loved it. I have come up with an idea related to it. I would like to share it with you!" 
          
          I'd rather you not risk it and interact with them, please ignore them and put your socials in your bio (if you want). If they are sincere, they would approach you instead. 
          
          There have also been two similar cases of people claiming to be digital artists and trying to get commission of their work from me. I don't know if they are genuine or not because scammers have become quite...smart. Even if they are genuine, I can't even fork out any amount of money to pay for their work anyway *sobs*. 
          
          Anyway, this announcement is just for everyone to stay safe out there. Please beware of these spammers and scammers, especially with how AI is progressing, it's getting really out of hand. I know how upsetting it is when you post a chapter, and the comments are just spammers. It's tough out there for any aspiring artists (music, art and writing).

@Rinkou aw i was actually happy atfirst then i realized this was not the first time, immediately after i received two different comments about commissions and shiz i read your post and realized it's exactly as you say

Rinkou

@butterfly_effect Yes, these two 'sincere' artists that approached me were the same. Especially when I told one of them that I cannot afford any kind of payment. They still tried to 'discuss' the price with me to accommodate to my tight finance situation. 
            
            I want to sigh too. I have to regard everyone here with distrust, not knowing if they are genuine or not. It's so exhausting and upsetting! We just came here to share our stories for our own enjoyment and for free, and we just want some fun engagement with the readers.

@Rinkou Oh you have no idea. I just have a 'sincere' artist added me in discord. I told her immediately that I had no interest in commissioning art. She said ' a few visual ideas related to your story that I’d love to share with you, they might help you explore your world and characters even more'. (That felt like an insult to me. I think I, the creator, should be the one who know my world and characters best.) And that her rates are affordable, there are even installment plans too!! 
            I just want to sigh. They are not only occupying my comment section, now my discord too! I just want some real readers reading my latest story T_T

Damn, it's been five years since Second Lead Syndrome? Time flies...

Unavailable002

@Rinkou in my opinion, it's because you've improved alot and find your old work unsatisfactory, because I really still like Second Lead Syndrome, and I've heard writers often feel that way
            
            And a sequel.... I'm watching

Rinkou

@Unavailable002 Yes, I know right xD! And in that five years, I actually have alot of things I want to edit about Second Lead Syndrome, I'm really unhappy about it. But I'm also lacking of time to do anything.
            
            I still need to work on the sequel too...

Hello, author! I just wanted to say that I was on the ride journey with Cecil and Xue when I stumbled upon it 4 years ago. I was a silent reader hehe. I had my reading slumps—but your story had its magic and made me overcome it.. made me want to follow along. And follow, I did. Can't believe I'm in 3rd year college now, when I was just a mere 11th grader reading your story back then. I just had this idea to post on your wall 'cause I'm rereading while on vacation! Thank you for your hard work! 

Rinkou

@siennaire Awww, I'm so happy that my story is the one that helped you overcome it! It is an honour! Thank you for posting such a heartwarming message on my wall, and reading my story--again too! I hope you enjoy your time rereading and I do hope you will find more magical stories out there, haha! Have a great vacation :D

@caffeine_18 Awww, thank you! I really apologise for the late updates, I only write it when I have the time and mood for it. It actually has a few more chapters to go before it is completed. Thank you, again, for reading my book!
