Hiatus: 1 Month

The last three days, I have been relatively free. Spent most of my writing, or at least trying to. Sadly, I stayed stuck at a single point for over two and a half days. Was depressed and had almost given up earlier today, but wanted to give it one last shot so that I don't leave you guys waiting for the last few days and without anything. Luckily, I got a good rhythm and managed to complete the chapter today.

Sadly, this kinda shows that if I continue writing this way, it's unlikely I'll ever return to the consistency I had in 2023 and 2024. Thought it was just a phase and I'd grind it out of it, but I sadly failed. Writing this way isn't fun for me, on the contrary, the last month or so has been rather depressing for me as a writer due to how frequently I have missed the schedule and disappointed you guys.

I'll be taking a hiatus in the month of May as per my previous notice. I'll likely spend the first couple of weeks completely away from my book, taking some time to cool off. Might finally look into my long ‘to read’ list, which kept on increasing due to all the recommendations you guys gave me, lol.

The next couple of weeks, I'll restart my grind. To be honest, I do have most of my story planned out. It's the fighting scenes that troubled me the most recently. Kinda ironic as I used to be most comfortable with writing them (if you guys recall, I did 3 double releases in a row while writing the first round between Fujin and Orochimaru).

So, I'll be using the last two weeks to sort out the battle scenes so that I can write them without having to face writer blocks. This is even more important as the fighting scenes will be far more complicated in the upcoming arc and I'll need to create a lot of original content. In addition, I'll also try to build some reserve chapters so that I can maintain a regular release time as I once used to do.

Important : I'll be pausing my payments during the hiatus. It should result in the following -
1. Everyone who still has a membership will get a +1 month time added to your membership.
2. No new members will be able to join when the payments are off (including older returning members).

PS: This is my first time doing this, so everything I know is from what I read. If you face any issues, please comment in this post. Also, I'm not sure if I'll be allowed to make new posts during this period (though my DMs should work normally).

Note: I'll pause the payments in 12 hours to give time to anyone who wants to join at the last minute.

I hope all of you have a joyful, peaceful and fulfilling month of May. Stay safe and healthy. I'll focus on my health too. Once again, thank you for all your love and support guys. I couldn't have written over 900 chapters and 1.4 million words without you guys pushing me. Praying I keep receiving your love and support even after my hiatus. Take care ❤️
