    Well, that happened. That was a thing. Out of nowhere, poof, my series has partially disappeared over the course of about two hours. I noticed that many of you, despite my lack of updating, have been distressed by this, so I figured I owed it to you to make an official announcement on this. Firstly, I'm gonna address people that don't like my lack of updating. A, I don't comment for the exact reason of what happened a few days ago. When I do comment, you guys only expect more commenting, more updating. It's the Stahanov principle, and I don't much care for it. I'm not mad, but at the same time, I can't promise that I can update frequently or even give concise predictions. I honestly thought at one point that Chapter 10 would have been done two weeks ago, but guess what, life didn't work that way. Even now, I have no clue when chapter 10 will be done. I never quite do know. Sometimes I work at it one sentence at a time, sometimes I find a loophole in my homework, finish it early, and literally write 90% of it in one night. Because of this, I will most likely never give you a date, or even a week, as to when my chapter will be published. The smarter of you readers are noting at this point that I'm mentioning that I'm still working on chapter 10. Do I want to post it? Yes. Will I be switching to AFF like Jashley13? No. I don't want to. Why? Okay, here we go. From when I began writing, my works were constantly compared to his. And that's fair. I mean, two authors emerging ...
    around the same time, both focussing on plot, both getting rave reviews, he was like the Mozart to my Beethoven (not that I'm saying I'm anywhere near their level, talent-wise). But I began to grow sick of being associated with Jashley13 by default. Granted, it didn't help the comparisons when I decided to ask him if we could collaborate, but I don't regret that one bit. At the same time, now it seems I'm forever in his shadow unless I break free. My plots are compared to his, even though they're nothing alike. Carson is compared to Craig (fair enough, they ARE cousins) and May is compared to Brad (still don't get that one. Being a bad guy just to get the girl you want and using physical force in the end isn't really comparable to a character scared of a drunken mistake she made, who is willing to do anything to keep her secrets hidden). Fans circulate the rumors that we're the same guy, and it got to a point where people literally only commented on my works to praise him or talk about him. Call me selfish, but as someone who both suffered from an inferiority complex growing up and thus always felt like I was never good enough, and also had an older sibling who was the parents' favorite, it kinda sucks to have this 'older brother' figure who seems to be better than me by default, like anything I do is just a branch off of his tree. Our stories are not the same, and I'm not him. I get I'm being selfish by saying that, but it's how I feel. I'm sick of everyone assuming I'll blindly ...
