Working a job, I've met a lot of people who teach me a lot more than just working the work. Through some folks I've been told that my way of doing things is a common trope on its own.
I'm ambiguous but lack the commitment to do things that are running in my brain. I don't acknowledge my own limit. That's what you see on my Wattpad, so many times, I've told you guys that I'll do stuff one story at a time and yet there's 3-4 here unfinished or untouched. I'm too confident without any backing to what I say and do, which is another thing, I'm too obsessed with pleasing people and end up ignoring my own words. It's given me a new perspective.
I just need to actually stop.
I'm going to be focusing on finishing "Vanity of Cold Steel" then continue on "Waning From the Nothing."
The OneShot book is existing, no one's too excited about that either.
But it's better this way, the story for WFTN is very much on a good progress, it exists and it's pretty much ready. I'd rather continue it without pressure of unfinished business.
I'd like to apologize to the people waiting for that story to continue, I'm delaying you once again but I believe when I come around to it, we'll both be happy with its flow.

@ThePotat420 I can't really offer any solid advice, unfortunately, as I also have one too many flaws. Regardless, my mom always says that people should do what they love. Not sure If got the point across correctly...but just know you're awesome and your stories are equally awsome, so take your time.

@ThePotat420 I care about the oneshot book. It's sad that other people haven't asked about it. You make such good stories.

That's very nice to hear. Been a fan of WFTN. Your prose and description really struck me in the feel and it was the thing that got me into Hololive. I'm not presumptious enough to speak for the others, but as long as you stay happy, I'll keep looking forward to each and every updates you make. Progress is meant to be steady. Rushing along would only make you dissatisfied
The pleasing people aspect is something I empathize with. Ultimately, it's normal to want people to approve something you put a lot of effort in, but trying too hard will only lead to one burnout after another. Just write what you enjoy. And us peasants shall feast from it.
Where was I even going with this? I guess my point is... don't stress yourself too much about things no one pay attention to.

Hi, hello, wassup. Alt potato here, I've been having issues logging into my main again which is the cause of my absence. It's not been compromised, I assure you, it'll just take time getting back in once the issue is resolved.

@bailbmogu_ I'm so sorry about seeing this late, I was having issues getting back into my account. Firstly, it means so much hearing that I'm considered a favorite! Secondly, the best piece of advice I can give you is two things. 1) Never look at the numbers: Views, Votes, Word count. None of these should ever matter, your work shines the best and attracts others when you enjoy writing it. 2) Never worry about time, don't schedule yourself. Write with your own free will and never concern yourself with taking time to complete something. What you have planned in your head is usually hard to convey into words, so write, read it yourself, write again. You'll always find something to add/change along the way. And I know this may sound obvious or annoying but grammar is very good at keeping the reader's attention, it's part of the story's flow. If you have any more questions, I'll be glad to answer.

That's right, "Waning from The Nothing" is being pulled from Hiatus! And with it comes more info, I will NOT be rewriting the story but continuing on with what I have created so far.
Why? I've come to realize a new perspective that I can take the story from and go from there. The time I spent away allowed me to brain storm more possibilities and now I believe I'm ready to get things moving again.
I know I'm delaying the long awaited Shiori story by doing this but I believe it's best to tie up loose ends before continuing on with the next product!
At the moment, I'm not going to be focusing much on the one shot book (as if I was before) and only be working on "Waning from The Nothing" and "Vanity of Cold Steel."
It's less of a work load on me and these two stories are something that I have a clear image for. Especially since we're already far into the former.

Out of curiosity, does 'No Man's Land' take place before or after 'Brother Abyssguard'?

Now that I actually watched Jujutsu Kaisen and finished season 2, I now understand why there's always so many "Gojo Satoru Reader" stories out there.
I get it, but me personally, I'm a Toji fan now. (Nanami is still the bigger goat)

Does Kajo wear regular fatui infantry clothing? Or does he wear something else?

Mb.
I just realized I never asked Kajo's hairstyle, does he wear the bandana on his forehead or on his hair?

Genshin always had a problem with story telling (In my opinion) which is why I normally never had much to say when quests were through.
Fontaine was always, by far, my favorite storyline for how extremely heavy it was and the journey it took you on.
Natlan tried to do the same but it just didn't work out in the end for me because the whole plot was "The power of friendship" in the most literal sense and it didn't click.
But this...
Nod Krai, sweet mother of God.
I'm not giving any spoilers but this entire region has won, it is THE best story this game has ever produced and it tops Fontaine. I loved every single part of it and at the same time it baffled me.
Now that it's done, I'm speechless and confused. Those who are following my current stories and who have finished the quest know what I'm talking about.
But Holy Hell this was amazing.

@MetalicaSonica His hair is mostly a lighter color of Raven, more on the bluish side.

Dude Sandrone and Columbina are so gay.
(This is not a hint to an upcoming story nor have I played the newest archon quest. Just wanted this super important information to be known.)
