Hey-ho everyone ! Update are scares lately and, for this, I Apologize.
This book isn't dead, far from it, but I'm taking a break from it (after I posted the next chapter) for multiple reasons :
- I want to let this story rest a bit. I'll fully read it once again in some weeks, maybe do a bit of editing, before starting posting chapters again.
- I discovered choicescript not too long ago, and since creating a "Choice of" type of game is a dream for me, I invest a good portion of my day in it
- I stopped school altogether, so now I need to find a job quickly, and this eat at the time I can invest in my passions.
- I've two other novels in the work. The first one is being proof-readed by my family and I will start translation as soon as I recover the original manuscript corrected ^^ It's the "main" story of the universe in which the other labyrinth take place. The second one is a standalone work not set in my shared universe, that I started to co-write with one of my friend.

Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.
Since it's written by two people, with one of them having English as a birth language, I find it more polished so far. I don't know how much this project will take, but I'm committed to it because I like the setting, the main author and to work in tandem ^^
And yes, I'm totally making advertising for this new novel through this one ^^ Please go give a shot at the first chapter, and tell us if you like it or not ^^ It's AGAIN a story around a non-human femal mc, but more in a fallout/mad max type of setting ^^
I'm happy so far about what I've done with The Other Labyrinth, seeing how it started as a project to make me better in english. There are no guidelines, no plans or anything, hence why (in particular some chapters around the tenth) it can feel a bit chaotic or lost from time to time, since I was lost writting it ^^' But it turned ok.
However, for the next chapters (counting 24), would you want me to write shorter chapters ? I try and force myself to write +- 3600 words per chapter, because I feel that I betray the readers when I don't post at least as much content, but the choice is always longer chapters vs chapters more often. I could go down to something like 2400 words, 2/3 of the current length, and I think chapters would come more often. So, what do you want ? I keep doing 3.6k words per chapter, or I diminish to 2.4k words ?
I love you all, I'm happy that this novel of mine as at least some people reading it, even maybe brightnening their day, and I hope to write much more in the futur ^^
Cheers !
