Preview (Kind of) For The Shadow Writer and some personal things…The unsatisfied me.

Hey Guys! I’m JaeJoong’s Mininion, author of The Shadow Writer. So…I made this blog to update you guys for the next chapters and possibly give you guys a date where I can update.

Since I’m really busy in school right now as well as Holiday and personal stuff, I’m not going to be updating too much but I plan to update probably after the end of my Fall Semester or longer. So, I won’t be updating until then.

Also, I want to tell you dear subbies that things will get a bit drama-angsty on the next chapters. I promised that things will be a bit more of a drama because I want to progress with the story. So there won’t be a lot of comedy on the next chapters. I will also add something to the story as well.

And…I’ve been thinking of doing this to the end of each update. I want to take a picture of your guys comments and post it on the end of each chapter. I will also talk about it and answer your lingering questions at the same time. I will only pick one comment from each chapter so please comment!

(Now if you don’t like personal stuff or offensive stuff…you don’t have to read the next words…My blunt honesty is going to come out next)

I’ve been slightly unenthusiastic these days. Not just recently, but I’ve been kind of…unfocused with stuff here lately. Not that I’ve been thinking about leaving or anything, but I just feel…I don’t know…bored.

I know that you guys are great. You read my stories. You comment. And it makes me really happy. I relieve stress through reading and communicating with you guys. I update because I want to read your comments, but lately I haven’t been getting as much. I don’t want to offend anyone because I kind of get disappointed when I don’t get as much comments. I think that I might have written something boring. Or I should put it that way.

On the last chapter, I really planned what was going to happen. I mean, I do that in every chapter, and I don’t really expect much from it. And I guess it’s my fault also because I’m just not enthusiastic to the point that I start to bore you guys. I don’t plan to continue that boring sh*t called my new sappy chapters, so I want to kind of spice it up on the next chapters.

But even though I make the effort to plan things out and write things out PHYSICALLY on my journal (which is stupid because I hate writing with a pen), I still don’t feel excited…

I’m really contemplating on probably going on a long hiatus…Like a month long…until I get myself together. I really hate feeling like this; I hate asking you guys for comments. I hate feeling like that. And it’s selfish of me to do so. I want to write for myself. I want to continue writing to make myself satisfied and not need to have comments just to make me happy.

I’m content with you guys commenting; I reply to them ASAP because I want to make sure that I give you guys attention. But I do feel a bit…I don’t know…unsatisfied with each update.

And it’s not just my story. I normally read comments from other stories…And I don’t really find as much. My only source of entertainment, new updates, from the stories I subscribe to don’t update. It’s been two months since the stories I subscribed to have been updated.

All of that is slowly turning into this…the unsatisfied me.

I don’t plan or want to leave AFF, but I’ve been feeling a bit bored with my stories…You guys are great, but there’s just something that’s been bothering me. It’s like I don’t feel content anymore…It wasn’t what it used to be before…and I was much busier before.

I just don’t understand what I feel right now. I feel like writing each chapter is now becoming a chore. I hate committing myself to a writing schedule because I know I’m not going to commit to it anyway. So if you guys wonder why I don’t update as much…this is the reason why.

I guess it’s the lack of feedback that is also making me somewhat unenthusiastic, but it’s also the low number of subscription updates. It’s not even low…it’s nothing. It’s been a long time since I read a new story. And I feel somehow sad about it….

But I guess it’s because I’ve been here for a long time…I guess I’ll just take a break right now…

I’m sorry for making promises that I can’t keep, and I applaud all of you for staying with me.

See you guys on the next update and I hope you will read it.

Love,

JaeJoong’s Mininion
