Updates - MMMS & General

Hi guys, it's been a while. I just wanted to hop on here to shed some light on my whereabouts, since it's been years since I thought about this site, and writing in general again. To anyone who is still waiting for an update on my latest fic, let me be the one to offer a reprieve. Because I've decided to leave it like it is, in all its unfinished glory. I can now say that one of my biggest regrets was never finishing this fanfic and I'm not sure if I will ever find the motivation to. The person I was when I started this is not the same person I am right now. That doesn't change the fact that MMMS is my proudest story though.

I came back to this site just this once for the nostalgia and I instantly remembered the good times I had when I poured my heart out writing for this story. I remember the thought processes I had, the joys of thinking up certain character developments and plot points, and the promise of a romance story above all was what kept me writing more. I loved writing, and you could probably tell that in the first part -- which I had planned for it to end there, initially. So when I realised that I couldn't just leave it there, I decided to do a second part, and from then on my writing suddenly became 9k worded chapters, intricate settings, and a bunch of lore. It became a series when I wasn't ready to write one, and I was writing too much that my commitment just couldn't keep up. So, in summary, if you're wondering what was the cause of abandonment, my love for My Monster, My Seulgi hadn't truly died, it simply burnt out. And I've long given up hope that the drive and all the ideas I had in the past would come back, because, at one point, it became too convoluted for me to continue.

For full disclosure, there was going to be this whole new arc about Irene and Seulgi making up in the end after she is rehabilitated. The idea was to have Wendy and Joy rescued and all these secrets unveiled about the underworld were to be shed to light. And once Act 2 was finished, Act 3 would be a journey into the underworld itself to battle Tiffany, where we actually step into demon Seulgi's world. In the end, Irene and Seulgi learn to love each other again and Irene becomes a half-demon, so they can fully live together. Or something along those lines. Yeah, so if you still somehow manage to remember where it left off, and you understood what I just said, let me give you a pat on the back. Clearly, I still remember all the details I wanted to write but my mistake was that I never fully sat down to write it. The fuel tank was empty at that point. But this is what was going on in my head. It's just a shame it was never put down on paper.

I like to believe that there's still hope for everything though. While I've moved on from writing and currently pursuing other things in life, there isn't to say that I won't go back to writing fiction again. Creating stories as well as reading stories and watching stories has always been a passion of mine. So I'll never say never.

Please allow me to extend my thanks to anyone following My Monster, My Seulgi. Continue the story however way you'd like, and don't let me stop you. The fic will still be there, open to the public, and open to be re-read however you like. Maybe one day my nostalgia will be so strong that I'll come back on here and write one chapter. But I won't make any promises. Just know I'm grateful its' even gotten that much love.

Til next time,

seulsorbit.
