Well, apparently Wattpad hid the image on Saril that I did digitally for being NSFW. Not really surprised to be completely honest, but apparently the one I did by hand is fine???

Disregard. I see it now.

Okay, that update in the ideas book is gonna have to wait until after work, since I can't even see the chapter. Dunno if you guys can, but basically it was just an update on how I'm coming along with digital art.

I just got a notification from Wattpad that some of my stories are written in unsupported languages lol.
          
          It confused me at first since I write primarily in English, and then I realized it was probably talking about the few characters I have who speak other languages too. These are Verde, Jack, Emma, and Sasha mostly. Confusing, as Spanish, German, French, and Russian are all supported languages. Pock and the other goblins in the third story spoke gibberish - there is no translation, which we saw when we first met Pock.
          
          If Wattpad sees this, the overwhelming majority of the cast is European/Eurasian, with only Yin being American and Midori (Verde's mother) being Japanese, though the latter was barely even in the trilogy due to being dead. Everyone else is from Europe and Russia, with the exception of Emma who was based on Mexican Spanish.

Hey guys.
          
          Chapter 18 was really hard to write. Not because of difficulty, or anything of that sort.
          
          It just really hurt. I don't think I've teared up like that since writing the first story in the main trilogy. It hurt writing about the deaths of so many characters and how Vao was too late to see them one last time, or too caught up in the past to realize he still had time to make just a few more memories. Hekue's life ended much different, which is why he wasn't using his magic throughout this story. That will be told in full later.
          
          And then there was him finally admitting he loves Sapphire, and the crushing guilt he feels over abandoning her, even if it was from Wonderland taking over his mind.
          
          And then there was Chapter 17, where Sapphire looked for him and apologized for something that wasn't her fault until she finally began to believe she was alone again. 
          
          Mono's story is also a hard one to write. I nearly teared up writing about the Grinning Cat and the Mad Hatter's encounter at the beach, and Mono calling out to the First Vao as she struggles not to turn into a demonbeast. We'll see Mono's story through the diaries, which Sapphire still has a few more to collect. 
          
          Those diaries are important chapters. They talk about how Wonderland came to be, and is the backstory for many of Wonderland's characters. You've probably already recognized a few - Lily, Nik, Victoria, Strid. There's a story to how they became monsters, as well as what happened to the First Vao.
          
          Buckle up, guys. I think this story is going to be painful. And remember; this is the GOOD Route.

Chapter 14 of Sapphire in Wonderland is about halfway finished. 
          
          We're going to see a bit of what's going on with the Tweedle Twins, as well as something bad happening to Sapphire.
          
          I'm attempting to draw the Mad Hatter on the Ideas/Rants book too, and may attempt to draw either the Tweedles or Emma on there at some point. Maybe even other characters, like the Grinning Cat or Victoria. Strid's a possibility, but I'm having serious trouble getting his body proportions right, since he's supposed to be huge and fat.

Hey guys. Just some things I wanted to get off my chest.
          
          I get very few views nowadays, so sometimes I just wonder if my stories just aren't very interesting or fun. I get that it's been a long adventure since I started writing, and I strayed far off the path of fanfiction. I really enjoy writing about the adventures of my characters. I really enjoyed writing stories that you guys would read and enjoy.
          
          But at the same time, I get less than 20 views on average, and next to no comments to see what people thought. It's starting to feel emotionally draining, to the point where I wonder if anyone would even stay to the ending of Sapphire in Wonderland. Sometimes I feel like I should just stop where the story is, and not waste everyone's time with it. If that happens, I don't think I'd even begin the Violet and Midori Spin-off. 
          
          The trilogy ended with a happy ending, so sometimes I feel like people only stayed to see how the trilogy would end rather than my writing. 
          
          As I said, I'm not sure if I'll finish the Sapphire Spin-off at this point. We'll have to see, I guess. This isn't quite a goodbye. It sounds like one, but if it was a goodbye I'd make it more obvious. 
          
          The game is still in the works; just waiting on some supplies to arrive. Don't even know if the guy who wanted to voice act is even still interested. 
          
          See you guys later.

As added to TBatG3 at last minute, Chapter One of the Sapphire Spin-off, Sapphire in Wonderland, is finally out. 

Do you promote your books on Neobook ?

Valentine's Day Special update!
          
          It's being split into two parts. There's so many ideas for it, and I'm gonna be honest, shit gets wild at the end.
          
          It's also split into two settings; the First Yin and First Vao have an adventure together, and everyone else is still in Grimmore - Vao is teaching Yin how to date, and Verde is teaching Mono how to be the perfect partner for the First Vao.
          
          Also some world building with nonhumans; new races, and what the nonhumans that aren't from the Secret City, Grimmore, and the Goblin City are like. Introducing two new characters, two siren sisters who will play a part in the entire special and maybe the specials after that!
          
          Also, a new species revealed at the end, which is the crazy part I mentioned.
          
          Part Two is going to take a while! Part One was almost 20,000 words, which is why I'm splitting it into parts.
