          	Im not gonna get to release the chapter in time for Mikan’s birthday :(
          	
          	It’s fine tho cuz we still in the early chapters and there isn’t much Mikan content in the chapter since I want the relationship to be a bit slow at first
          	
          	I hope to get this chapter done maybe by tomorrow or thursday… or friday. Depends how motivated I am but I’ll definitely try to get it out this week cuz birthday :)
          	
          	ok bye bye :P
          	
          	(Happy birthday to Mikan :D)

@TheFancyPigeon Cool to note! I did at one point write a chapter with 7k words, I even have an unpublished one nearly 10k words long now, probably gonna scrap it or take pieces of it though considering what I ended up doing for the story instead XD.
          	  
          	  But yeah, Danganronpa's definitely one of those stories where a lot of writings needed. Class Trials, Investigations... Monokuma... BP

@RicardoMiddlePM Yeah it really just comes down with what you’re comfortable with I think. I started out with 3k to 5k words and eventually began to gravitate towards at least 7k per chapter. Though, that was partly cuz Danganronpa, being as long as it is, had me writing more than usual -w-
          	  
          	  I’d say just write as much as you think is necessary. It’s your story, you get to pick how long it should be. I will say tho that 5k is a pretty good place to be at :)

@TheFancyPigeon I often wonder how long some chapters should be myself, but I’ve often just stuck with around 5k words XD.
          	  
          	  The only reason I’d go below or above is if I come up with more or less ideas, and I think it’s worked out! B)

At what point does Y/N go from being a reader insert to an OC? Take the Y/N from Trust Issues. Idk if he still feels like a male reader insert to readers. When you guys read it, do you see yourselves in him? Do you see yourself saying the dialogue? Performing the actions? Thinking his thoughts?
          
          Or do you see something that’s not you? Something that strayed too far from being an insert. I don’t wanna say he’s an OC, cuz I don’t think he is. If he was an OC, I’d be able to picture what he looks like, but I can’t. When I picture Y/N, I don’t see anything. No face, no distinct clothing style, no name, nothing. He’s a blank template with a personality. So what does that make him?
          
          Idk. Just a random thought I had. Trust Issues Chapter 33 will hopefully come within this millennium. I want to slap myself for not making much progress in the past month.
          
          Also, a happy early birthday to Mikan Tsumiki. I would’ve wanted to get a chapter out for her birthday, but given how much I’ve procrastinated, it’s unlikely it’ll come out in time. Never say never though. I may get a random burst of energy and work from 10 AM to 4AM.

@Screechable I could try leaning further into making them original. I still do want to avoid adding too much so the reader immersion doesn’t break, but I’ll definitely try being more open to adding a few littler details to make the insert feel more apart of the world (Healing Process will especially get a lot more)
            
            I appreciate the feedback, compliments, and the reassurance that you’ll continue to read, thank you :)

@TheFancyPigeon I personally don't see (Y/N) as me but I still love the way you’re approaching everything so far. Reading Healing Process was such a refreshing experience because (Y/N) genuinely felt different from the usual inserts (gardener and taxidermist are still awesome though). They felt natural within the source material while still bringing something new and memorable to the story.
            
            That’s actually one of the things I like the most about your writing because your inserts still feel like they belong in the canon, but they also have their own identity and presence. IMO, I think you could lean even further into making them more original without losing any of the charm.
            
            More than anything, though, I just want you to know that I’ll keep reading and loving your works no matter which direction you choose. Your storytelling, character writing, and the atmosphere you create are already great! :)

@TheFancyPigeon Aw thank you! It’s honestly more helpful to hear that by it self, helps me feel better about how I write. XD

Democracy has decided, the April Fools chapters will be preserved in a book of their own! Thank you voters for voting. The April Fools chapters currently up will be taken down sometime tomorrow probably.
          
          The REAL Chapter 33 for Trust Issues will be worked on next, after that Healing Process will finally begin Chapter 1. See you then :)

Hey guys! It’s me, TheFancyPigeon! I have a surprise for youuuuuu
          
          I uploaded one new chapter for EVERY SINGLE BOOK! That’s riiiiiight! Trust Issues, Healing Process, and For All I’m not all got one new chapter! Totally real and legit chapters with a genuine thought process behind them!
          
          Just don’t check the date ;)
          
          Enjoy!

When I said the next chapter of For All I’m Not was coming very soon, I meant as in today. Can you believe it guys, I don’t lie about a release for once :D
          
          Anyways, Chapter 3 out now, prologue is FINALLY done! Go ahead, give it a read! Go, go, go!

Constantly cutting out Hajime’s “Huh?” or “Eh?” as I see it as unnecessary to keep. Why is he so clueless? ;-;
          
          Yes, this is a sign, Chapter 3 of For All I’m Not is coming VERY soon. I got a random burst of energy and have completed a majority of the chapter over the past day.
          
          Why can’t I have that energy all that time? I find that when I put out a chapter, I take like 2 weeks before I even think of starting the next one, which sucks since I’m constantly thinking about these stories and I want to put them out but I sit to write and I get distracted easily and just don’t get much progress done. But then I get a random burst of energy, write the entire chapter in like a few days, I put it out, want to write more, but then I don’t, and the cycle repeats. 
          
          What the heck brain? Where did all that energy we just had go!?
          
          Anyways, chapter coming soon, will see you then :)

@LolangFuriosoPM You, my friend, YOU understand. Why can’t my motivation be consistent ;-;
            
            And thank goodness I’m not alone on this whole Hajime confusion situation. He’s out here saying “Huh?” “What?” “Eh?” to everything. Like bro, the situation was JUST explained to you, LOCK IN

I was just looking back at my Dawn story and found out I spelt episode as “epsiode” a total of FOUR TIMES in the titles
          
          And two of them were BACK TO BACK
          
          And nobody said ANYTHING
          
          This has been fixed now. Before this, those chapters were COMPLETELY unreadable (I’m embarrassed…)
          
          Little update on stuff btw? I’m working on it. For All I’m Not is receiving my attention currently. Progress is slow, as per usual with me. Thats all, bye bye!

@TheFancyPigeon I remember hearing about how our eyes and brains correct sentences or words without meaning to somewhere. Because we're so used to how the word should be written we just automatically read it as such. So I'm sure its fine! :D

@LolangFuriosoPM I’m hoping it’s the same case for everyone else since those have been up for a year and I cringe at the thought of someone seeing that and just not saying anything ;-;

@TheFancyPigeon Imma be honest, I never noticed so that’s why I didn’t say anything XD.
