Taking today off, writing more later. · 5:52pm Sep 23rd, 2018
I've been reading all of the comments and I've come to the conclusion that I'll keep writing.
I think part of my problem is a change in diet recently. My body is extremely sensitive to chemicals; Salt and caffeine makes me pass out, sugar makes me depressed, certain kinds of tea gives me moodswings, etc.
To those that commented their support, I thank you. I'm not the most mentally stable person but I do try to keep myself together. My own perception of things is probably skewed negatively because of my own depression and other things in my life that make me sensitive to criticism more than I should be.
Yes I buckle quickly under pressure, and yes I'm thin-skinned. That's just how I am. I do my best to not take out my emotions on other people and I do my best to keep myself together, but I'm not perfect by any means.
If my previous post came across as douche-like, it wasn't my intent. I'm not a paragon of self-discipline and control.
For now, however, I'm going to take a break until my brain returns to normal. Maybe that's tomorrow, maybe that's two days for now. Until then, many thanks to all of you that read and comment on my stories, and thank you for your support and feedback
Thank you
Hope you feel better.

you're already leaps ahead of most people. Acknowledge your failures and they will help you achieve.
take all the time you need, your story is great, the majority will read it whenever it updates.
You're not supposed to be. And even if - I believe you just said what all writers have in mind.
Rest well.
WOOOH! YEAH, YOU GO AHEAD AND TAKE THAT BREAK, Sanguine. you deserve it.
Just speak up if you've got issues or concerns, don't bottle them up.
You deserve a break.
*Hugs*
Take your time if you need it, we love your work true, but if you need a break we will support you!
Thanks for your decision! Try to pace your writing. A chapter per three or four days will still be better update speed than most other stories have.
If anything, I would just write a set amount of chapters in advance and release one every other day. That way you get a small break and wont have to write until you're down to the last few. Either way, enjoy the break.
i love your story no need to rush it do one chapter a week, there no need to rush perfection
Take your time, rest well.
Take your time. We eagerly anticipate your return.
just remember mate, most of your actual fans prefer to remain silent.
I typically don't comment on anything and enjoy doing th whole ghost act but were here for you.
Rest up. We love your work just don't overwork yourself.
we will be waitig for your return! pleasant dreams!

Same! Glad can see those that do support you and like your work!
Take all the time you need. Mental health is more important than any story in the world. Though we will be anxiously awaiting your return to the story! Hopefully it can give me the time to catch up on it.
Do what you gotta do, Mate c: Hope you're ok and we'll see you when you feel better!
I'm sorry if I came off as overly agressive and all but I am worried about you. To explain, I saw some of myself in your last post. It might help to take a break and it might not, just take a moment to think about it.
Take your time, and rest. Healthy mind and body are great for writing. (overcoming such things often helps one express as well.)
I'm sorry you feel so down, and I hope you feel better. Take your time. Your fans won't lose interest in your story, at all. They can't, otherwise they wouldn't be fans. I, for one, enjoy your story far too much to let anything like a hiatus in your work turn me off. Posting a chapter on a weekly basis is more than enough for most readers, so should you feel worn out about a daily update, then don't worry about it; most readers don't get a chapter a day.
Rest up and do your best to enjoy yourself.
nobody is perfect.. i mean look at me, 25, no job, no real education to speak of.. trying to get some kinda school done(besides the basic mandetory school we have in denmark) you are great simply because you write a great story, and even if you see yourself weird, i dont think anyone on this site would mind too much, cause in the end we are all a bit weird.. some of us(myself included) more than others, as i have no social voice in my head(the one that says "this is acceptable in public" or "NOT OKAY! ABORT!!") and i have social anxiety because of bullying.. it made me a sit at home doing nothing on the computer kinda guy for years, but i am working on getting out my my shell, and my first week at school was rough because of my missing social voice, and my social anxiety. but after telling them all what had happened to me, they started to accept me more. suddenly i am invited more to just hang out, whereas before i was actively avoided, because of something i had said in good faith, that turned out to be a massive no-no.. so dont feel bad just because you are weird, cause trust me, we all are..
Now sorry for the wall of text, and possibly the emotions some might get from this, but hey, might as well tell it straight, instead of pussy footing around it right?
anyway, if you need someone to talk to, feel free to contact me in some way.. i am easy to reach once you get some of my details, of course only if you want to, dont want to force you
*EDIT*
we will not leave you, we will support you as best we can. we, your fans will keep on reading even if others think its shit.. because we can see through it, and know there is a good story in there, you just gotta read it to find out
There will always be people who think they know better, and will be insulting when things aren't going as they want it to. The problem with fanfiction is that unlike a book this comes as a constant stream throughout the creation instead of as a review of the completed product. Don't let them change the story you want to create. People came back for more because you proved yourself in your last story, and while these few may be vocal there are thousands who read every chapter because they like what they see.
We love both you and your stories Sang, dont ever forget that!
I reckon that the vast majority of people love your stories, ignore the noisy minority. Keep doing what you're doing, if they don't like it they can leave.
Your story has a 100 : 1 ratio between likes and dislikes. Focus on the positives of your stories than worry about the negatives. Just think about this, in less than 1 month your story racked up over 1k likes, I barely got over 100 likes for my only story I started a year ago. That means you have over 1k people that support you and your story, including me a fellow author.
If someone doesn’t like your story, then that’s their loss. Keep up the good work and hope this helps from one author to another.
In order for any person to move forward with their emotional problems you have to reject or accept a certain accpect of yourself and improve the broken parts.
So take your time as far as I am aware of you as a person and everyone else in life need to find balance otherwise people will get more problems.
So find your balance and if you find it than great job.take a break when you do.
If I criticized you in anyway than I am sorry for such an action.
have a nice break
I am saddened there was no chapter today. It is one of the things that helps.with my own depression.
In other words, take heart, your work is valued.
Don't push yourself any harder then you have to. As good as this story is, it isn't worth your health.
I have nothing against waiting a few days for a good chapter so just take your time and make sure you feel well.
Rest up buddy, you deserve a break. Don't worry about us your health comes first and foremost, we'll wait patiently for you to continue this amazing story of yours once you feel a bit better.
