Again! Probably something to put in my curriculum vitae.

So, something I did not expect at all. I went to bed at 10PM and checked my notifs for the last time. I initially ignored it, since I convinced myself that it was probably some sleep hallucibation... but hey presto! The Traits of a Lover is still on the front page in the morning.

It's been a while since my first feature (that concidentally happens to be my first story, too, but that's a of luck). I've grown a lot as an author from that Jag-eun I wrote as a 13-year-old. I suppose I've gotten better in sense of narrating and characterisation. I'm still angsty and I don't let my readers breathe, that's still an unchanged fact (obviously).

I've come a long way. 7 years ago I was the bottom student for writing in middle school because I was the worst at it (sometimes to the point I don't write anything at all because I've convinced myself I was a failure), both language- and literature-wise. I've grown in that ability since then.

Well, speech over. I want to thank all of my readers, both old and new, regular and irregular, visible or simply ghosting there. You all have been exceedingly supportive and patient of me (particularly my older readers) and essentially, without your presence, I would not have gone to the point I am in now. Also, kudos to those who recommended it to ficrec archives and/or their friends. I'm very thankful to you all.

One love!
