Now, let’s start this with Question and Answer.
Q: Why?
Well, I think I messed up 😅. I used AI so much for grammar and sometimes make sure to check on every character, that I realize that this story is no longer feel like mine. It protect some key elements, but they are not enough!
Q: Am I quitting?
Absolutely not. I want to write this, but I can’t continue it in this state. So, I decided to fix it before continuing it.
Q: What do I mean by fixing it?
I will rewrite starting from probably chapter 2. Mostly to make sure to characters to become the way I wanted, and smooth. I realized that I felt like I am forcing some characters like Elijah. Or how Marcus suddenly disappeared? Or how Bumble’s car sickness suddenly go away (and her personality which I planned on my head 😰)? The list goes on.
Q: How will be the process?
I will rewrite all chapters (except first, and probably second chapter) somewhere separate. After I finished them
1) I can remove the old chapters and publish them as new chapters
2) Can edit all chapters and let you know I finished it
I don’t know the process, so I would be happy if you tell me which one is right/better?
Q: Why now?
I actually planned to do this at the end but, I felt like it just getting worst and worst. Bumble became a depressive character, the scenarios I wanted to originally add went away, it felt wrong. I also felt like I ruined Bumble’s personality and I feel bad for it.

Q: Will I ever use AI
?
No. Never. Nu-uh! Maybe for cover image (yeah, I plan to change it), but not for proof reading, grammar or helping me with ideas ever again!
Q: Will I use AI to rewrite the chapters?
Absolutely not!
Q: Will I publish every week after hiatus?
… Probably not. The only time I am free to write is weekends and I don’t want you to give a chapter that I write in a day!
Q: How long will the hiatus go?
Well, I can’t say but I will do my best to finish it till at least November’s first week. It will end when I finish editing all chapters. I might also remove all chapters now and write from the beginning, but I am not sure how much everyone will like this idea.
Q: Will the story change too much?
Probably not. I mean, the reactions of Bumble will change, and some scenes might too but key scenes probably won’t affect that much.
Q: Will you get hard time with these changes if you don’t read?
If the changes are so much, and scenes also change more than I think, I will put a “For old readers” note at the Pre-chapter author note and give a summary. Probably delete it after some time though.
Q: Will I ever enter a hiatus like that again?
Hopefully not for this reason. I will do my best to keep it at best this time!
That is all for now. See you after hiatus!
