The second chapter of Zakula: Beloved Companion might be rather short by my standards. But it is the most difficult chapter I have ever written.

Hello, Simon. It's been a while, I hope you're doing well. I was about to message you, but now I'm discovering that apparently Wattpad took off the feature. Nice to see that this app continues to get worse and worse. 
          
          Feeling a little ashamed to have disappeared all of a sudden and coming back equally suddenly. I don't know if you've heard, but things have been awful in Bangladesh the past few months. So much happened that it's still hard to process everything. I kept myself away from social media as much as I could, because the more I learned how ugly and disgusting politics is, the more I lost my faith in humanity. That's not good for the mind. And it feels like things are only about to get worse. Either way, life goes on. I'm slowly coming out of that headspace.
          
          Now that I'm finally back, I'm finally going to finish Zakula. Hopefully today I'll binge-read it, so get ready to be swarmed by my comments. The story hasn't left my mind all this time, but I really didn't have the energy to do reading. But I'm trying to get my writing life back in order, and your book is the best place to start!
          
          Speaking of your book, my brother's coming back this November, and I asked him to buy a copy of Vanguard of the Mutants. If everything goes well, I'll have it in my hands soon and I'm awfully excited to read the physical copy of it!

@pomalo_ Yeaaaahhhh, you're back :DDDD
            
            Yes, i heard about what's happening in Bangladesh and I was seriously worried. I can absolutely see you taking part in a student's protest. But I don't know enough about the situation in your country to judge what's actually going on.... and frankly, it seems like less and less people around the world understand the politics of their home country.
            
            Getting away from social media was absolutely warranted. Even without crazy politics, it's good to take a break sometimes. I understand that and I'm looking forward to your comments :DDD

After a long pause, I have decided to start publishing on Wattpad again. This one will only be a small side project. I know, I said the same thing about Vanguard Of The Mutants when I started it and that one came out with like 120k words, but I'm confident it'll stay short this time.
          
          "Zakula: beloved Companion" is a very personal story. Updates might be slow and irregular. It is very hard for me to write, even though the narrative and what little you'll see of the world of Zakula there are much simpler than what you saw in Vanguard Of The Mutants.

I am super happy to announce that Vanguard Of The Mutants is now finally available on Amazon! For now, it's just the hardcover, paperback and e-book are still getting checked. They should be available soon.

          Big thanks to @LizbethCReads for aiding me with her experience in self publishing via KDP. Without her, I could not have done this.

Yesterday, I have made the difficult decision to unpublish Remala. At the moment, I am very busy with the final edits of Vanguard Of The Mutants and with translating it into my mother tongue.
          
          Once that is done, I will hopefully get to continue the Mutants series and do some edits and translations of Remala too. Then I hope to republish a chapter of Remala per week and a chapter of Island Of The Mutants whenever I have one ready.
          
          Until then, I'll also try coming up with a better name for Remala and maybe even get a new cover. Let's see how that turns out.

Now that I started to translate Vanguard Of The Mutants into my mother tongue, I have to curse German grammar rules too!

The more I learn about English grammar, spelling and punctuation, the more I resent the British "people" for inventing such a confusing mess of a language!!!

@WezleyBrookz What!?! How can you be Bri'ish, you're such a nice person!?! *gasps in German*
            
            I shall view you with extreme prejudice now....
            
            .....which means I'll never take culinary advice from you :P
