After a long hiatus, I have decided to publish an ongoing story I've been playing with for the past several years on and off, titled "The Brotherhood". I think it finally deserves a chance. So, please let me know what you think. It is a completely different genre than Virtuoso, and it features original characters (though they are still based on kpop in my imagination.)
          	
          	If you're interested in a darker story with more action and thriller aspects, please check it out!

@Lree25 Thank you so much for your feedback! I definitely feel out of my element writing sci-fi/fantasy, however it's a plot I've wanted to see come to life for a long time, so I knew I wanted to try. I can't thank you enough for giving it a try.

Hi Bangtan_Storytime... I just stumbled across your work "Virtuoso" and am wondering if you might have a way for us to connect directly about four familiar (to me) faces you acknowledged at the end?!? I might be an older 'noona', but I know you want to be careful what you post in this day and age. Thank you in advance for your consideration!

Well, my friends... After a long, long journey, we are finally getting to the end of Virtuoso. It's a bit bittersweet to announce that there are only three chapters left to be released. 
          
          I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your support through this project. Once completed, this will be the single biggest creative project I've ever done and saw through to the very end, and it is the first completed work I've ever published. Never did I imagine this story would grow to be well over 125,000 words or that it would gain anywhere near the following it has. I am immensely grateful for this experience and for each and every one of you who have supported me along the way. I hope that the finale of Virtuoso will have been worth the wait. 
          
          Borahae! Stay tuned for the final chapters coming soon.

@Lree25 thank you so much! I'm so glad that are enjoying it and that you connect with the characters. I wanted to share a story that most people will see themselves in, somewhere. It means so much to me to hear comments like this. You motivate me to keep writing, so thank you!

@bangtan_storytime I really love this book!  It has so many life events that make such a huge impact on the characters lives.  This kind of made me remember decisions I made when I was younger that led me to greater things.  Reminds me of times in my life where the love is so great that it killed me when I lost something (and people) that were such influences on me.
            The smut (to be honest) reminds me of intense love between myself & my boyfriend for 5 years & now husband of 25 years -- how we would lose ourselves in each other & experience new, exciting and amazing ways to be together.

@Paintpuddle2021 a Jane and Roy prequel is planned. I have other ideas, too, but that's the first one I plan to do. 
            
            I'm very touched by your comments and your dedication to the story. I hope to share more stories in the future. I've got plenty of ideas I'm excited to see come to life. 
            
            I'm definitely sad to see the story end, too. I'm doing my best to make it the most fulfilling ending possible. I want the journey to be worth it for all who were onboard for the ride.

To my dedicated readers - 
          
          I just wanted to reach out and say thank you to all of you for your patience and for your loyalty. I was quite nervous about returning to this project after having taken such a long time off, and I'm immensely grateful that you have returned to continue this journey with me. The universe works in very interesting ways. This time it seems the right sequence of events has led me right back here, and I couldn't be happier.
          
          I hope to soon deliver the completed work that I've always promised, that I do the characters justice, and that it was worth waiting for.

@Lree25 I am so touched! Thank you!!! It's hard for me to believe anyone would read anything I write, let alone more than once. This is THE only thing I've ever published in my life, so this experience is surreal to say the least. Thank you, so much, for your continued interest and following of my story.

@bangtan_storytime I am so happy to see this message, there are a lot of authors that I read yet only a handful that I go back to read again and again and again.  You are one of them.

thanks Jessica for giving us the link I joined today with screen name Silver Grani gotta get my virtuoso fix Just an FYI it took me a couple of months to get the hang of Weverse — and it looks like Discord May take me a bit also I’m going over the tutorials but I’ve always found that just poking around does me the best.  See ya there

VIRTUOSO ANNOUNCEMENT: 
          
          Virtuoso is in a weird spot right now because I've been in a weird spot myself, and I've been trying to get my bearings and get focused so I can finish this story in the way I want to. 
          
          I've been working on my writing, trying to learn and improve while working with some other writers on collaborations. In this process, a good friend and fan of Virtuoso, offered to work on some creative writing exercises with me in the form of roleplay writing, so that I can possibly use this content for the book. I wanted to invite you all to join us, if you'd like to follow along. 
          
          We have a BTS discord server set up for general BTS content, adult and general discussion, kpop general, fanfiction, karaoke, among other things. 
          
          On that server, THREE writers, including myself, are CURRENTLY playing through some smutty VIRTUOSO scenes using the characters from the book. If you'd like to read along, join BTS+: 
          
          https://discord.gg/RdtCfVTAx6
          
          BTS+ has over 40 members so far and is a growing community of BTS and Kpop fans, with organized chat rooms in a wide range of categories. Check it out!

@bangtan_storytime sounds like a blast!  I haven't used Discord since I left World of Warcraft but I'll try to check your server out
