Hi everyone,
I know a lot of you have questions about the sudden pause in the book. It has been almost five months since the last update, and I did not leave any notice or explanation. I am truly sorry for that. I know this silence must have made many of you feel angry, disappointed, or even ignored, and I understand why.
The truth is, I was exhausted in ways I did not know how to explain at that time. My health was not doing well, and neither was my mental state. Life started feeling heavy, and the pressure in my head kept growing every single day. Writing, which once felt like comfort, slowly started feeling like a burden I could not carry anymore.
I do not want to go deep into those days because thinking about them pulls me back into the same spiral of overthinking So I will leave that part there. All I want to say is that I was not okay.
Even when I started feeling a little better, I was lost. I sat in front of my screen and realized I did not know how to write anymore. When you write continuously, your mind stays inside the story. The characters live with you, the plot moves with your thoughts. But when you stop reading, stop thinking, stop dreaming, everything fades. Suddenly I was asking myself, what was my story? What was I even writing in the next chapter?
