HIATUS for a while

i’m going to be on hiatus for a while as i work on unpublishing and revamping my old books. thank you for your patience and understanding, and i’ll be back as soon as i can! 

hello my illusias!
          
          i’d like to let you all know that i’ll be unpublishing and revamping my current books. after giving it a lot of thought, i’ve decided to return to writing anime and manhwa fanfictions, which is the genre i’ve been most comfortable with and have enjoyed writing since 2019.
          
          because of this, some of my existing books will no longer continue as originally planned. instead, they will be repurposed and used for my upcoming anime and manhwa fanfiction works. i know this may come as a surprise to some readers who were following my english novels, and i sincerely apologize for any disappointment this may cause.
          
          this isn’t a final goodbye to original novels, but for now, i’d like to focus on the type of stories that reignite my passion for writing and help me enjoy the process again.
          
          thank you for all your support, patience, and understanding. i hope you’ll continue to join me on this new chapter of my writing journey.

hi illusias! ❤️
          
          i just wanted to let you all know that i've officially changed my pen name to mindthrive!
          
          i've been thinking about this change for years, and i finally decided to go for it. it feels a little scary but also exciting at the same time ✨
          
          don't worry though—i'm still the same author behind all of my stories! ❤️
          
          you may still see my former username, realityphantasm, on some of my book covers. that's because those covers were commissioned before i changed my pen name, and i haven't had them updated yet. honestly, i'm a little embarrassed to message the artists again heheh.
          
          maybe i'll have them changed in the future when i finally gather enough courage.
          
          for now, just know that realityphantasm and mindthrive are the same person.
          
          thank you so much for staying with me through all the rewrites, title changes, cover changes, and now even a pen name change. i truly appreciate every one of you.
          

hi illusias!
          
          i just wanted to give a quick update regarding my stories.
          
          i probably won't be able to update anytime soon, and i also won't be unpublishing my books even if some of them don't have chapters yet. i'm still in the middle of editing, revising, and rewriting a lot of things, so they're not ready yet.
          
          once i'm finally done (which, honestly, i'm not sure when that will be), i'll try to follow a slower and more manageable update schedule—probably one chapter a week or one chapter every two weeks.
          
          between college, work, and real life responsibilities, i don't want to promise frequent updates that i might not be able to keep. i'd rather take my time and give you chapters that i'm genuinely happy with.
          
          thank you so much for your patience, understanding, and continued support. i promise i haven't abandoned these stories—I’m just working on them behind the scenes ❤️

Wahh, I accidentally took down Suddenly, I Became an Extra in the Novel! Huhu. But I already republished them again.

I'll be unpublishing Transmigrated as an Extra for now to make some edits before I continue updating the remaining chapters in my drafts.

to my illusias, i’m really sorry for ghosting and not being able to update lately. life has been super stressful recently because of personal and family problems, and it honestly affected my motivation and focus when it comes to writing and editing my drafts ‎(╥﹏╥)
          
          whenever i get too stressed, i tend to sleep a lot, so my schedule has been really messed up lately too huhu.
          
          hopefully things will slowly get better soon. thank you so much for still being patient with me and continuing to support my stories despite everything ❤️

new book cover reveal for HOW TO SURVIVE A REVERSE HAREM NOVEL ❤️
          
          i finally changed the cover because i wanted something that fits the new rewritten version and overall vibe of the story more. honestly, this book has gone through so many changes already HAHAHA but i’m really trying my best to improve everything little by little.
          
          the new book cover is so pretty huhu, thank you so much to IEC Creation WP for making it! she’s also the artist behind the covers of my other two books, and i genuinely love her works so much ❤️
          
          i hope you’ll continue to support and love the new version too ❤️

to my illusias,
          
          i finally decided that i’m going to rewrite this whole story. however, i’ll be revamping the old version into another book with a different set of main character names (except for heavenrose). the new title for that version will now be transmigrated as an extra — i removed the “in the harem novel” part.
          
          that book will continue the old plot and storyline, while this current book will officially become how to survive a reverse harem novel. although the two stories may have similar concepts, this rewritten version will be quite different since it has a new female lead, several changes in the plot, and updated story outlines.
          
          don’t worry though! you’ll still be able to read the old version and original plot in my other book, i just really wanted to rewrite and improve this story properly. thank you so much for staying with me despite all the changes huhu ❤️
          
          and i’ll be revamping/moving the chapters of transmigrated as an extra into my other book starting later or tomorrow, and there will probably be lots of updates too since my drafts have been piling up in my notes for so long.

I’m sorry Illusias, but I’m not able to update right now or anytime soon because I’ve been really stressed out lately due to some family problems.
          
          I hope you understand po. I’ll try my best to come back and continue once things get a bit better. Thank you so much for your patience and support ❤️
