Hi everyone.
I know it’s been a while. This isn’t an update that I’m excited to share but feel that it’s necessary to. I know I haven’t updated “From the Other Side” for more than 2 years now and I’m so sorry for causing any disappointment for anyone that was following the story. But I want to be fully transparent with all of my supporters and readers: I’m not sure when I’m going to pick it back up again. :(
Please know that it’s a story that’s very near and dear to my heart. I know there are so many Stay With Me fans interested in knowing what happens next, especially after knowing we mostly likely will never get a second season with our beloved BinJiong on screen. But my continuation from the series in story form is very personal. It touches on my own grief journey written through Wu Bi’s POV and it is very draining and difficult to write sometimes. I have to tap into a darker place in my mind; to the time where I felt like my world was ending, to fully capture Wu Bi’s strong emotions of loss. And I haven’t been able to do that for a while due to the fear of not being able to climb back out of it afterwards.
So I’ve been focusing on myself mentally during these past 2 years. But life keeps throwing hurdles to my healing journey whenever I feel like I can write again. Let me make it clear that I do not plan to completely drop the story. I *will* finish it someday as I have had all of the chapters planned out from the very beginning. I just don’t want to provide any estimated time frame, only to end up not being able to meet it.
If you’ve read this far, thank you for listening. I appreciate every single person who has ever read any of my stories or poems. Your support means everything to me. “From the Other Side” will be finished one day. Thank you for being here.
-DD ❤️
