Quite a bit of bad news I'm afraid.
          	
          	1) I'm going to have to delay the Hu Tao x Reader chapter that I planned to release this month, as it's proving to be a much larger project than originally planned (it has scaled far out of control at this point!) and I'm planning to get some commissions done for it, as well as perhaps requesting for some of your help for in-game screenshots down the line. And, considering the content of the chapter, I am kinda sitting on a June or August release date for that. (I'm thinking of going for 20k words minimum in said chapter)
          	
          	2) I've fallen behind on chapter releases this month, I'm aware. But unfortunately I have found myself without much time to write, and when I do find the time I end up getting invaded by my needy kitten who'll tear up the room if I don't pay attention to him! I'm currently working on the Furina x Reader chapter that I hope to release by the end of the month, if not perhaps in a couple of days; and as for the Inazuma & SAO chapters? I'll do my best to get them both out before the end of the month as well, otherwise I'll double up the following month's word count to make up for the missed month as best I can.
          	
          	3) The One-Shots have ended up completely backlogged as well. My circumstances at home have changed considerably from when I was able to knock out the one-shots alongside monthly releases, and I'm still trying to pick up the pieces there. It doesn't help that I've got complete writer's block on what to do for the next one-shot in question!
          	
          	Thank you for your patience, and I hope you'll forgive both the delays and the loss of a consistent level of punctuality in recent months.

@ Obahar_  The Lord of The Rings took 12 years to be completed.
          	  Game of Thrones took about 30 years to be written.
          	  Harry Potter took 17 years.
          	  You get the point. Writing takes a lot of time so no one is blaming you. Heck, I was genuinely wondering how you could manage to monthly update on four different books while still offering top notch quality content. So it's alright if there's a bit of a delay in your writing. If it takes a day or a thousand, we'll still be patient and support you until you're back to business. Take as much time as you need buddy, and most importantly don't force yourself.

Hey all, sorry for the delays.
          Just an update regarding chapter releases this month...
          
          Hoping to have the Eula chapter done by tonight.
          Inazuma book will hopefully be released this coming Wednesday.
          Instead of a Furina chapter, I will instead be doing our annual Hu Tao chapter. But don't worry, Furina will be in it!
          SAO chapter will release as normal, on the last weekend of the month.

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas!
          
          This was the week that you all voted I take off, so there won't be a chapter until the end of the month of which will be the last chapter of Furina-December! Once 2024 kicks in it will go back to a one-chapter per month schedule for all my books.
          
          If you have preferences as to which weeks should have which chapters, now's your chance to influence me with a reply here!

@Obahar_  should be a furina-2024 with how much I'm enjoying this story!

I don't want to say I'm cooking something good with the upcoming Furina x Reader chapter (this weekend for sure!) but...
          
          I'm pretty sure I'm cooking something good!

Obahar_

Well, it ended up not being entirely cooked in this one chapter. But I've certainly put it to simmer until next week where the meal will be ready to eat for sure!

So you aren't telling me to have insanely high expectations for this upcoming chapter, but you also are. I like your attitude. I'm in.

Hey guys, so I've a couple of things I want to mention in this post...
          
          Firstly, if you haven't yet noticed, I uploaded the 12th chapter to my Sumeru book yesterday, and with that the series has come to an end. So if you haven't given it a read just yet, now you can binge through the whole thing!
          
          And secondly, I've got another poll I want some help with. As December nears so too does the chance for Christmas Special Chapters! But I have too many books to do a special chapter for each one, so not only am I leaving the choice to you, I'm also going to let you all decide the schedule for December as to what chapters will get released which weeks!
          
          You can find the poll here: https://forms.gle/422iGprYQSzb52NG6

@Obahar_ damn too bad i gave you breaks lmao

Obahar_

@KaiyenCastus Yeah, that's understandable. But remember that this is starting off before even Osial showed up.
            
            So there's time to celebrate Christmas with the starter cast before getting too into the story/before Aether shows up.
            Also, if there are enough Fontaine chapters asked for this month then by the time the Christmas Special comes around there'll have been plenty of development for it hopefully!
