Le sigh...
I'm pretty much done with the next chapter... but my brain demands that I add five new drawings to it. So... I'm very sorry y'all. To make it up... you can have this spoiler of one of the photos I've finished!
Ironically, this is how I feel right now. Ngl...

So... anyone up for chocolate cake? Perhaps even fudge?
Progress Update: Delays
Hello readers. I'm... still not sure how many of you actually see my updates, but I feel the need to put this out there:
grad school is really kicking my butt, and as an unfortunate effect of my brain, I find it hard to stick with a project long term.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not going to call it quits! With my both my current projects, Synergetic Bonds and Yearning Within the Flames, I still plan to write and update them as soon as I can. In SB's case, I've just been slow in transcribing what me and my co-author have written. If I dedicate a good afternoon to it, I should have it done promptly! Maybe give it a week or two, as I'm super busy on weekdays and weekends are crashout times mixed with catchup times. In YWtF's case however... I'm facing a problem. For those who don't know, It's been more than a year since I started writing this fic, and it was born from a spur-of-a-moment fixation, hence why the first five chapters were written all in a week. Kinda. At least two were fully written in that time-frame, all in one day each, while the others I had half written and half re-written, as they were WIPs. And in that time... I think I've missed somethings. I don't think it needs a re-write, and God knows I already have trouble going back to fix spelling errors and making new chapters!
So... Maybe a small hiatus is in order. I've already been slipping on updating and writing as much as I'd like, and I feel like I'm close to loosing major plot points and character beats. Why? Well, one like I said, I started the fic over a year ago. I've forgotten a descent amount of details, as I look back in my fic for answers. And two, I never officially made a good plan, for the story or the characters. In trying to flesh out my character to set up their big story, going off of vague vibes, I've forgotten smaller things that I've established. So while I have a plan for Chapter 27, I'm going to hold off on trying to write it before I actually do some serious planning. The LAST thing I want to do is contradict or make plotholes, as I'm already trying to be sneaky and clever with my writing. I don't want to disappoint the few fans that I've somehow convinced into believing in my storytelling!
So I'm sorry to say that my motivation isn't at it's best. I need to pull the white flag, bunker down, and do what needs to be done to present something that not only you will enjoy, but that I will be proud of in the end.
Honestly? I still appreciate any support you give me. I'm still in shock that my numbers are higher than I ever thought! Like, a hundred hits between chapters, at least a couple of comments, and the bookmarks! I feel like my silly story doesn't deserve it! And I know this is kinda weird to ask, but please continue to write comments and reach out on Tumblr to interact. It makes my day!
So... yeah. I think that's all I needed to say. This was... longer than I meant to make this. I love you, and I hope to interact with you soon.
Have a good day, and a good night.
Boom. Done

Tomorrow...
I've made enough of a chapter, motivation born through academic frustration and the will to do more than the student success overseer committee and supervisor expect of me. Whatever... just one more day to proof read.
Then my readers will get a little over 3,000 words of a new chapter.
Can't wait to interact once more. I missed this.
