I got some good and bad news for everyone seeing this not-chapter.
The good news is that I'm getting back into writing! The reason for the no-updates without any warning is muti-faceted, but the main thing to take away is that I was in the wrong 100%. Regardless of how hectic my schedule became, not saying anything was a bad thing on my part. My job, classes, and general motivations made things hard for me to continue my hobby of writing.
I started loosing motivation when I realized that this work of mine, my first ever even in private if you ignore some D&D stuff, is flawed in many ways. I half-wanted to rewrite the damn thing, but that's silly. At that point I might as well complete the novel then rewrite it, but I'd rather publish other works.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
Speaking of, even though I haven't been writing much, I've been slowly adding to other novel ideals I have on the back burner. I don't have the time to have multiple novels going on at once, so once this work is wrapped up, I might do a poll or something idk.
More good news, I have three chapters coming out in succession and I'll try my best to do *relatively* consistent chapter updates.
Bad news, my best might not be good enough, so if I do this again, please hold me accountable.
Also, not a meme, I couldn't access my account for a little while and that caused me to take a little break, which then spiraled to this situation even though I logged back in a few days later. I literally "forgot my password" or so to speak.
