Hello everyone! 

(P.s. You can listen to SJ's White Christmas while reading this)

 

 

It's finally the end of 2016! I think I shall make a habit to write a blog post at the end of each year, and have some time to reflect about whatever I've written this past year, and what I could write for next year. First of all, before I talk about what I think of each of my stories (I have few stories indeed), I'd like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! I hope this year is good for you, and thank you for sticking around this fandom! While I could possibly say I wasn't as crazy as I was in 2013-2014, I'm a loyal person by nature and I'll probably stick with Eunhae all the way to the end :> I hope you will too! It's strange, because lots of good things always come to an end, I hope me writing stories and being in this fandom won't. I've been happy receving subscribers and comments and upvotes this year; just because I don't do an announcement thanking subscribers and upvoters individually doesn't mean I don't care, I do, but I'm just not the kind of person who would do that :/ Continuing to write is really my way of thanking you all for supporting me as a writer :) 

 

Chased By A Devil: I know updates were pretty slow this year (and I completely went on a hiatus for this story during the later half of 2016). While I'm not (and I will never) abandon this story, I just won't be continuing on it for the time being. After reading all 32 chapters of CBAD more than once, I realised that there a lot of plotholes than I thought there were initially (ha, when I was writing I probably thought that there were zero plotholes.) But there hasn't been a time when I thought I wouldn't be finishing CBAD (maybe in 10 years time, if all of you guys are still reading...).

 

Thing is, school is busy, and school will get busier for me next year (ok, not school, UNI. I got laughed at by an uber driver for saying that I went to school and then he was like do you mean uni and I'm like yeah.) because I have a lot more things to do next year. Like, a lot more things. Like travelling, and other school uni activities. The travelling part probably isn't going to be a hindrance because I get most of my inspiration when I travel, and a lot of free time to think and ride especially when riding trains and planes. It's probably going to be my school uni activities that take up the bulk of my time, and on top of that I have school uni work. 

 

So, going back to CBAD, I just can't continue writing 3k-6k words a chapter and update regularly because that just isn't going to work for the long term. I'd update and then not update for a few weeks, and then I forgot what I really want to write. Believe me, I have already got the ending thought out in my brain, my fingers just don't want to translate it into words (and it's probably to reach over 50 chapters...). Also, I want to fix all the front bits before I continue with the story. It just irks me a little with the plotholes in front and some parts are inconsistent. It is after all, my first story that I've wrote, and I want to FINISH it in a perfect sort of way. 

 

Crescendo D'Amour: My third story, and first complete story. It was written for a contest (which had a deadline which was why I managed to finish it, hahaha sorry I really don't do things until the deadline is nearing and then I panic and try to do a good job despite the odds). I think it probably has the least views, but I hope it is a nice story for all (?) I liked it. I've read it again and again (thank goodness there are no plot holes in this one or I might stab myself with a pen). 

I'm thinking of maybe writing a sequel for this :P Something with 2k word chapters. 

 

Eunhae Tales | Winter Edition (previously Eunhae Tales | Winter Edition, but I renamed it because I want the Spring Edition and Summer Edition and Autumn Edition for random drabbles throughout the year that I would like to write): Second story (ok, not really story because they are drabbles, but in whole, it is a story between Hyukjae and Donghae in different times of their lives (?)) and third complete story (Just completed with the last chapter! Don't ask for more, you guys, because WINTER IS ALMOST OVER). This took TWO WINTERs to write, and I'm like crying at the slowness of it all. Anyway, I like these drabbles. I just started writing sometime last winter when one of my housemates was baking cinnamon rolls, and boom! Cinnamon Buns Pt.1 and 2 came about. 

 

Summer Boy: Fourth story, incomplete, and will be incomplete till next summer. I was inspired by Lady Gaga's Summer Boy (this is such an old song, but you kind of get the drift of how old I probably am). I don't know what to say about this. I have the whole ending thought out already, fingers just fat and lazy to type. 

 

Of Peach Puffs and Panna Cotta: Fifth story. I like this. I started this on whim. I didn't even know what I was writing, but the first chapter came out easily, as did the second. I want to continue to update this regularly (Thursday and Sundays) as much as I can. Thank you all for supporting this story and subscribing and commenting and upvoting. 200 subscribers and 100 comments you guys probably can't believe how happy I am. 

 

Anyway, the thing is that, I won't put my stories as subscribers-only. I will categorise as M or not M, but whether you want to subscribe is up to you (I hope my stories are interesting enough to be subscribed to :>) Except for CBAD which is like trigger etc (Ok, I can't help with this because AFF automatically sets it that way). And... I actually have a few stories up my sleeve which I've been saving (ha, because I might never actually finish them if they are all going to be as long as CBAD). I'm wondering if you guys would actually like me to post like a foreword/summary. They're all in my little notebook for fanfic chapters (when I feel like writing them out. I actually like writing them out first as compared to typing) but I feel like I'm NEVER going to finish them and I don't want to just leave them chapterless. So... let me know by commenting :P Or, you can PM me. This is a stupid request because I don't know if I'll ever be free to give a meaningful comment back. Time is like... at a premium for me. I always feel bad for you guys who always comment and I don't reply. I know you all have put effort into commenting! And I really want to reply too, but I don't want to make it a habit to be on AFF all the time. 

 

Thank you for reading this super long post. And reaching the end? Have a happy 2017 ahead everyone! :>
