Hello, besties! 
          	
          	It is finally here! Late last year, I promised that I'd post the alternative ~fluffy~ endings for Handbook Series, and I got caught in the whirlwind of uni :(( Not to worry, the endings, combined to make up the brand new ✨Love Handbook✨, have finally been published. I know it's been a while, and I'm really sorry about it. All the one-shots have been written, and I will continue to edit and post Taehyung and Jungkook's endings in the coming days. Thank you all so much for your love and patience. 
          	
          	(I will also finally resume my updates for Below the Light now as well......)

Hey, friends! 
          
          Updates for Below the Light will experience a temporary irregular upload schedule due to personal reasons. I will be holidaying for about two weeks with unstable access to the internet, so I cannot guarantee the usual one chapter every two days. I apologise for the inconvenience. I hope everyone enjoys a wonderful end-of-November/start-of-December! 
          
          With love,

Hello, all!
          
          I am happy to say that the Handbook Series (Empress Handbook and Hostage Handbook) have been fully edited. 
          
          I have fixed the technical mistakes (grammar, punctuation, etc.), but I haven't touched anything else because I don't want to rewrite the stories. As I've mentioned in the past, I wrote those books at an emotionally trying time. No matter how shitty they are, they are proof that I fought through my demons. 
          
          Plus, I fleshed out some parts, such as finally giving Taehyung and Yeoreum's son a name (biggest achievement ever!).
          
          It is probably the last time I change anything about the Handbook Series, but I hope you are glad to know that it won't be the last time you hear from Yeoreum. Later this year or early next year, I will release the fluffy one shots I had promised when I first completed Hostage Handbook. 
          
          Additionally, to celebrate the completion of editing, I have posted Hostage Handbook's after story.
          
          Thank you all so much for supporting the Handbook Series, and I hope Yeoreum will continue to have a special place in your heart (because she definitely has one in mine). Have a wonderful time and happy reading. 
          
          Love,
          
          Eileen.

Hi, friends! Unfortunately, I have run into another week of assessments and assignments, so updates for Blood or Blush may stop for the week. However, I will try my best to find time for editing, and I might be able to pump out a couple of chapters here or there irregularly. Sorry about the wait, and I hope everyone has a lovely week.

Heyy bestie, hope you're doing well. 
          So I, um, stumbled across a uquiz whose results were astonishingly similar to the characters of your Empress Handbook. 
          
          https://cordeliaflyte.tumblr.com/post/685898151255851008/hiii-i-was-wondering-if-you-have-all-the-results
          
          Yeoreum - the long suffering knight
          Taehyung - the boy king (surprise, surprise) 
          Yoongi - the scrappy hero 
          Jungkook - the fool 
          Yunhee - the monstrous bride (?) 
          
          .... or that's just what I think.

@Irony810 Indeed! I see the parallels too. It's so cool to see how Empress Handbook characters fall into those tropes (better call out Yeoreum for her indecisiveness between Tae and Yoongi too). Also, thank you for thinking of Empress Handbook :)

Hi all! Updates for Blood or Blush will pause this week; the regular update schedule will resume the following Monday (the second of May). 
          
          All my assessments are happening, and I also have many assignments due. I just don't have the capacity to edit chapters—I want to make sure that every word published is as polished as possible—so I will have to take this short period off. I apologise for the wait, and I hope you all have a wonderful week.

Hello guys! I really want to give a formal thank you to all the support I have received since the announcement of the Watty's shortlist and the opportunity to be shortlisted for the Wattys. It is a great honour that will forever be engrained in my motivation to write. Additionally, the editing of Hostage Handbook has been put on a temporary hiatus; my academic and career commitments are catching up onto me. But I do promise that I will be back with new edits (including new scenes!) very quickly. Thanks again and happy reading!
