I'm not sure how to start this.
I always loved writing Taekook and anything BTS related. I had so many plans for future books. I had so many dreams on how to finish my books, how to design covers, how to work to make sure my creations were something that not only would I be enjoying it, but to everyone who was reading it as well. I just think that that's becoming harder with how everything is going on today. School is really kicking me right now; I didn't expect my work to consume me this much. I feel drained to a point where writing feels like an impossible feat. It feels like a luxury I've been deprived of. The people I used to look up to for writing are slowly fading to a place where I think I might end up next. And I know I sound like I'm dragging this or being dramatic; I was thinking about how to post this for months now. And I just decided... well, whatever comes out will come out, and I'll deal with the rest later.
It's not to say that I'm quiting Wattpad.
This is my safe place; a place I went to so I could feel a range of emotions that honestly isn't there in life right now. I try to come here every once in a while, but it's getting harder to do it. And I honestly don't know why. I haven't felt inspired to write for months; I open Wattpad, my fingers touch the keys, but there is no movement. There's no... rush anymore. It's fading, I think. And that scares me. The day I write again is the day I've overcome the slump. But I don't think today is going to be that day. It makes me sad to admit this... more than sad. There are so many emotions I can't even pinpoint now that I'm doing this. I want to come back as a writer everyone is going to enjoy; I don't want to write without any life behind it. If that means I have to take a break, I will. Even if this break is lasting for a year.

@aloraseraphine I feel honoured that you posted this here, and I think after reading the first four parts, I'm DEFINITELY waiting for the next parts. I know it is quite late for me to be seeing this---and I'm SO SORRY; I wish I saw this much sooner and repsonded much quicker---but this book sounds beautiful, and I honestly CANNOT WAIT for you to publish the next parts!

It’s been a while but your story still lingers in my mind the kind that doesn’t just get read, but quietly settles in. The way you weave details together is genuinely captivating, almost like watching a scene unfold rather than reading it.
I find myself still waiting for the next update, curious and a little impatient in the best way. I hope you’re doing well, wherever life has taken you lately and that your words will find their way back soon muaah

@NadineGnn This... you have no idea how much this means to me. I miss hearing words like this. I read it every time I come back here, and it always hurts me a little that I can't bring myself to write again. I'm surprised and joyous you waited so long, and I'm sorry if you have to wait longer

Hii author,when will the next chapter of the cold husband come or it may take more time
iustined
@Vante3700 I don't know when I'll post it, if I have to be honest. It could take a long time... I wish it wouldn't though. I was planning on releasing another part by the end of the month... but we'll see

@destinedlovetk It's definitely taking longer than I thought too. I wish I could update, but I'm not able to write the same way. But the second I have the parts, I will release them

So, I had posted three updates for MCH and two updates for Yoonmin! I'm planning on finished Yoonmin as soon as I can, mainly for three reasons:
1. I've kind of been neglecting it, and I feel really bad about doing so
2. It's definitely not a popular book, so finishing it up sooner would be better than finishing it up later
3. I have no other story ideas for them at the moment besides finishing up the ones that are already there
So hopefully, I can get that done at some point (again, I can make no promises). I'm hoping I can also get MCH done as well, but because I'm changing quite a few things, it's definitely going to be a pain to do, but I'm thinking that it might not be a bad thing. ALSO, when did I get readers for "My Mate"? I thought that book was completely forgotten I also have to finish RFTM... but I think MCH is the main priority, then Yoonmin, then RFTM. I don't know what I'm going to be doing if I ever get to finishing those three stories...

I haven't came back for a long time... sorry about that. I don't even know how long it's been, to be honest. I didn't think that my break would be this long (and yeah... this was another surprise break). I don't know when I'm going to start publishing parts again, to be honest; hopefully soon. The only issue with me is that I'm a perfectionist who constantly finds mistakes in their work; I only want to write in my best mindset, which is becoming harder and harder with each day.
Also, I was reading this chapter from one of my favourite authors from one of my favourite books, and they mentioned how all of their old readers were leaving now. It reminded me of the readers that I used to have, actually; the old ones that were there when I was super small. The time when I'd have only one vote for each chapter. I was in a state of reminiscing for a little bit. It made me quite sad, but I was also reflective about it. You win some, you lose some? I'm not sure anymore.
I know I should write soon, especially for those of you that have stuck with me the entire time. And for that I say thank you⎯especially to those who continue reading, voting, following, commenting, and just showing their love in general. When I can, I'll try and publish something; hopefully I won't let you guys down. Please be patient with me.
And I guess a side note: who's excited for a BTS comeback? After seeing Yoongi's story with Yoonmin, I had some hope; are we going to get another Taekook moment? With all of the stuff that's been happening with them... I pray that they're safe and healthy and are trying to filter out that toxicity.
Anyways, I'm just rambling off. Stay healthy during this weather, and (I know it's SUPER EARLY but still) have a wonderful Christmas

How many chapters left of cold husband? I like this story it's so amazing. And angsty heartbreaking story. Keep writing :)
iustined
@tk2527 I'm glad you're enjoying it, love :) as for the chapters... it's a bit uncertain, because I keep changing things, but I don't think it's going to exceed 20... I was originally planning 5 more chapters, but I keep extending things, so I'll say 10-15 more chapters, but don't take my word for it

There hasn't been any updates besides "Returning From the Military", which is going to end this Friday (automatic updates, at least). Some news: I am going to be travelling (no I didn't choose to travel; it's a family thing, and I'm going). I have no idea what's going to happen to be honest, but I don't know if I am even going to be able to access Wattpad from where I am going to go... so it's going to be a really long time before I update anything. I know people don't usually reply to my posts, and I don't really mind, but I want to get this out before I actually go and ghost everyone. So... yeah. I was working on a few new chapters for my current stories, but those are going to take a small pause. If I am able to update something, I will. And if I am not able to... I'm sorry to everyone in advance. I genuinely apologize for not publishing anything, especially for MCH, which I haven't updated in over a month. I swear, I'm trying to get chapters out, but writing isn't coming to me as easily as it did before. I'm not quitting; it's just that my "small break" is going to be extended for a while longer. RFTM (again) will have its last update this Friday, and then it is completely done (for now). My stories - all of them - will be going on a hiatus. I think I'M the one going to take a hiatus... not too sure. As I said before: if I can update, I will; if I can't, I apologize to everyone.

@destinedlovetk I'm okay; a little sick and groggy, but okay :) what story are you reading, dear? I'll see if I can update that one soon
