@zaynd17 Personally I really like swine's cover but unless the Lamb is a really important character I dont know why their on the cover. The things I like most about swine's cover is the sort of scrapbook style, the color pink, and how the word swine looks on it. I wouldn't be mad if you changed it I just like the cover how it is rn

Hello! I hope your doing better, I wanted to let you know that I absolutely adore swine and think that's its definitely one of the best stories I've ever read. I also wanted to remind you to take care of yourself and take as long as you need. I wanted to know if you needed help writing it? I completely understand if you don't want to but if you need help then I'd be willing to write chapters for you, I'll admit I'm not the best writer but I love this story and I know you don't really have any motivation but maybe I could write up a chapter for you to go over and edit it as you please if you just give me the main idea for the chapter. I don't mean to sound rude at all, I just really love the story and want it to continue. Have a great night/day, make sure to take care of yourself

It's fine tbh I wrote mine really late(as in 9:45 bc I have a grandma sleeping schedule) so I was half awake when I wrote mine, im surprised there's not more spelling errors. I have an account on characterhub which is a platform for artists and is a really small community if I make any fan art ill post it there my account is So1ar_abyss if it doesn't work please tell me, do you know that name of the fan art with the pig mask? Or can you put in Swine extras with credits to the artist of course, and I might end up making an opossum mask I could see the reader in and if I do ill post it on characterhub. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my messages and write responses, have a great day/night and take care of yourself

@Mango_popsicle 1. the peacock does have a sort of love interest, but he is not a yandere so he doesn't have a real "victim" 2. i saw fanart of a saw character in a pig mask around the time i was cooking this story up and thought it looked really cool. definitely really ugly in actuality but i haven't thought of it much since i have the privilege of imagining him as the character he actually is in the story lol. 3. probably around 60 but it could easily be more or less 4. can't answer that but an opossum is a cool choice! 5. can't really answer that either but im sure a few characters will be happy 6. i have no idea. at the rate im going now, it might take us into 2026 7. i don't have many socials, but i figured something out with a fan who wanted to send me cover art and we did that through pinterest 8. the amount of characters was my biggest mistake lmao. its the first story i ever went through with and i had a lot of ideas that aren't being used anymore. ive scrapped quite a lot of unimportant characters, but unfortunately i just can't say who since that would in turn tell you who's important 9. can't answer that one 10. that's totally fine! i was really sensitive about that while i was first writing this book, and i don't mind as much now. at the end of the day, it's just art, and anyone can consume it as they wish. sorry for any spelling errors or typos lol, it's early and i am NOT proofreading this

Thank you so much for replying so quickly, Im happy you got some motivation back and I cant wait for the next chapter(take your time ofc) I also had some questions about the story which feel free to tell me you can't respond to my questions bc of the story and spoilers. Question 1. Does the peacock have a darling? (A darling is a yandere's love interest) Question 2. Why a pig mask? All the pig masks I've seen are like really ugly. Question 3. How many chapters do you plan on having? (If you dont know, thats okay!) Question 4. Will y/n get a animal mask, if so can it be a opossum? Question 5. Does the story have a happy ending? Question 6. When do you plan on finishing Swine? Question 7. Where can I send you fanart(not a guarantee that I will make fan art since I'm super busy but if I do where do I send it? Question 8. WHY SO MANY CHARACTERS!?!? Question 9. Will y/n and the swine get together? (Ik you can't really answer this but I really want them to get together, the swine is one of the best written yanderes ive ever seen.) Question 10. In the very first chapter of swine you said that if someone identifies as female who is reading this not to say that bc it could make ppl uncomfortable. What if someone is genderfluid(me) or non-binary? Is it okay to say that or would you prefer if people didn't say. I will respect all your answers and thank for reading this.

i feel bad about this hiatus but on top of the overall lack of motivation, i got introduced to a certain song from a certain musical that made feel a certain way about certain topics that i without compromise have to tackle in the next chapter of swine.
as i say pretty much every time i write one of these, i want to keep yall in the loop, so im just letting yall know that im building back up my motivation to write by refocusing on a much "fluffier" piece that will hopefully not take such a hit to my conscience.
wishing yall the best and hoping for both of our sakes that i can get back to work
