*takes a deep breath* Okay, I know I said that I'm supposed to be back, that updates are trickling in, slowly but... steadily? That was over 2 years ago. I've been assessing the situation for some time, and it's safe to say that, I'm going to take some time to sit back and figure out where do I want to go with Manhattan Demons. I'm going to learn some plotting craft and all the writing skills along the way, because I had always been slow at this, and two years of backlog in life is a lot. A lot had since happened. A lot that is bad. Enough that most of what I wrote were in extreme stress, and it coloured my writing. To me, the second book of Manhattan Demons, Maleficium, has already been a shaky concept held together by strings and glue. To polish the chapters was a challenge by itself. Suffice to say, I hadn't polished the chapters so much as breaking apart the whole thing and melted them into a close relative of Frankenstein's monster. Functional, yes, but horrific. On top of taking an extended hiatus for my story and your eyes, I'm also taking it for myself. Like I said, I had two years of backlog in EVERYTHING. There's a lot of catching up, and surprisingly, not all of them are writing. That included figure out where the hell I am right now. So, thank you for waiting, thank you for the understanding, and thank you for reading my stories, it means a lot to me.

@andryare hey! Its been a while. I'm rarely on here anymore myself, but I wanted to stop in and say I hope that you're making it through whatever you're going through. I have had a really hard time writing with all of the stuff going on in the world too. Don't be afraid to take all the time you need to revamp your stories or rekindle your love for writing. You come first! :)
