Hello guys, this is Lanternnn.
I would like to adress the reason of my absence, as well as my thoughts on the story.
First of all, I apologize for leaving for so long, on a cliffhanger at that. To be honest, my mental state hasn't been the best at all since last year, and a series of bad situations kept happening to me. It didn't feel good writing in that state.
I know my story is extremely flawed, from the writing to the inconsistent flow. I had never written in english before, so it was all new to me. Sadly, it had come to a point where I realized I couldn't see the good parts anymore, which drove me to stop writing. When I started writing the first chapter, back in august 2023, I had not expected the story to go that way. It honestly scared me, as I doubted my skills would portray my world correctly. That is why I would upload one chapter every 2 months. I had come to hate my story.
Recently, someone I didn't know made a fanart of every characters of my world. It was very suprising and heartwarming, because I didn't even imagine possible for a stranger to read my story. It was as simple as that, but it made me very happy.
Now, as Radioactive kept reappearing in my life and mentioned in conversations with my friends, I feel a lot more positive about it. For me, it isn't about how good of a story it is, but about the characters themselves. I will try to get back on track for now, as I would like to write more about Yuri's journey.
I sincerely hope you readers will continue enjoying my world, even with the flaws. Thank you so much for the support, be it liking the chapter or appreciating the characters, it is the main reason that keeps me writing. Thank you.
