Fun little fact about the Sandrone Story!
          	
          	When I was making the first chapter the whole story didn't take as long as it did for me to come up with a name for the MC. Kajo was the final choice but for the longest time, I had been doing a lot of research on Nod Krai culture wise and diversity.
          	
          	I also went around searching for every single NPC in the region and tried making sure I accidentally didn't pick an existing name. I settled with Illmari Talkov and started writing the story!
          	
          	Lo and behold, the next day when I was playing genshin, I found an old fisherman with the same name on an island outside of Hiisi island and pulled my hair out. Started searching again  and now it's the name we see today.
          	
          	So yeah, maybe I didn't have to do this much but I wanted the story to be solid.
          	
          	Or maybe I'm insane!

@ThePotat420 I don't think people understand, the hardest part about making a story isn't the plot of the story or the way of writing, it's the naming of characters, cause good writers actually have to do a lot of research into those things for it to have meaning or make sense

I haven't been working on the books as much as I intended on. Why? Because I have horrible and dreadful news...
          
          
          I am now employed. :(((

Ok I did it. But! I'll be keeping the Sandrone  book as my "Pass time Sugar Rush" as I like to call it. Working on the other stories gets a bit tough especially as big projects as each chapter for One Shot book so that one will be the type of story that I do on the side when I don't want to keep working on the same thing for weeks and fry my brain!

After finally going through all the Archon Quests on Nod-Krai, I absolutely adore Sandrone. A freaky little brat. I have so many urges to write...
          
          But I need to practice self control. Fuuuuu...

I'm really reaching my limit here.
          
          Since posting a new chapter on the One Shot, there have been 35, I will say it again, THIRTY FIVE BOTS that have spammed my comments and profile on not just that book but my entire profile to the point it feels like a cyber attack targeted at me.
          
          12 of them happened within an hour and it's becoming so frustrating that I'm genuinely starting to despise opening this app anymore. I don't get a single notification of actual people who read my books and comment, they all get swept under and the Wattpad itself pushes these bot profiles on my notifications.
          
          Please, any of you guys who read my stuff or a newcomer just glossing through my work, please, if you spot any comment that's talking about turning my story into a comic/digital artist wanting to make art/mentions their discord or Instagram. Report it as spam. I delete every single one that I can find but it's starting to become a nightmare.

Yeahh man I feel you bro I’ve been getting them a lot more recently too, its honestly so annoying

@ThePotat420 Oh geez, I actually did get one of those. I've never seen it before, but I knew it was suspicious. So I just deleted it

I just wanna say that I just found Closer Than You Think a couple days ago, and aside from grammatical and spelling mistakes, it’s absolutely peak. Never had a felt so many emotions and been so attached to a story. That’s all, just appreciation for making actual gold.

Ok, now is the point where you guys can also start requesting more skits for the GF scenarios, while there's still more ideas I will be using, I'll add your guys' into the mix.

@ThePotat420 can I get a part two of my one shot? Like it could be about them doing random things like going on dates or something.

Myth and Council's parts are done. I hate how much I can't get back to work on these because of my job hunting.
          
          It's so fun writing each individual story.
          
          On a side note but should be as major, for those that didn't notice!
          
          "At Times End" my first Genshin Impact book is the first on profile has reached 100k views! That is such a huge thing to me and I will never get over that number.
          
          I'm so blown away that this story still gets so much attention and love the impression it's made on so many who read it.

@ThePotat420 Major congratulations, 100k is a massive milestone!

I don't wanna be that guy but seeing how statistically the Hololive chapters for the Oneshot book seem to gain more interactions (and I've also developed a flow of writing) would you guys be fine with it if I continued the Hololive skits through and through until they're done and then go to the other fandoms?
          
          Or would you rather have me do one for each fandom at a time, in a sequence?

@ThePotat420 Your updates never fail to put a smile on my face. I don't think "oh wow this dude write slow as hell", I think "hell yeah new chapter". I'm sure many others think the same. Given real-world responsibilities, it's not so often one can dish out quality writing with regular consistency

Next chapter for No Man's Land is almost done but whenever I'm getting through to a completion something always happens.
          
          I have like, a really bad immune system, so the most common of sicknesses feel like hell to me and that's what's been going on for me the past week or so.
          
          I'm not overburdened with the books I currently have. Lately it just feels like there's too many obstacles around me to get back into it all. No cause for concern tho, just me nagging. I'm still having fun with what I do.
