I’m very sorry for going MIA for so long! ORZ
I knew going into it that writing an original story would be harder than doing translations for me, but I was met with some unexpected hurdles during the writing process. The advice I got as a first-time writer was to “write what you know,” so I did, but the subject matter ended up being too heavy for my current mental head space and I had to scrap the first idea after writing a good portion of it. That was quite disheartening for me.
Then I tried a different angle for the second story, but it still ended up hitting too close to home. So I had to set that story aside too. I’m currently working on my third story idea, and this one seems to be coming along better. Here’s hoping third time’s the charm.
I do like the premise of my first two story ideas. I hope that someday in the future, when I’m in a better head space, I’ll be able to pen those stories and share them with you.
In the meanwhile, I have a new update of DLYE to tie you over for a bit. I’m sorry that this one took a while to get out. I was overwhelmed with all the other things going on in life. But I said I wanted to finish translating DLYE at the very least and I intend to do so. I, too, want to read the ending of DLYE, and I only get to do that if I translate it. So we’re in this together.
A super big thank you to those who have been so patient with me all this time! I am really, truly grateful that you exist in my life. ♡
