    The end.

    Well, that's that.

    When I started writing in April 2016, I was full of ideas and had plenty of time to do it.

    Alas, real world intervened. Many things happened over the past few years and I was unable to compartmentalize real life and my writing. I looked back and I see it coincided with many low points of my life: the health scares of my father in 2017, my own leg surgery in 2019, my career changes, the pandemic of 2020... And 2021 began with my mother had a fall. A health check revealed that her diabetic condition was affecting her eyes, and would require intravitreal injections and surgery later this year.

    So yeah... my writing changed because my life changed.

    I am sure many felt disappointed by the directions I had taken. I truly apologize to readers who gave up on my story. What started as a fun, casual jaunt in the early parts of the story slowly became more overly dramatic and filled with delusions of grandeur.

    When I wrote the words "THE END", I did not feel a sense of accomplishment. Rather, I felt relief. It was as if I was dragging a half-dead horse across the finish line. I do not think a creator should feel that way. I had apologized for disappointing my readers, but I also felt I had let myself down.

    I hope to do better. If my world improves, maybe I will.

    That said, those who spam me with crap: Go eat shit.

    Thank you very much to everyone who had stuck on with it this far. My gratitude to you all is like the great river, unending and ever-flowing... like the grand mountains, towering and ever-magnificent...

    A huge shout out to those who donated to my PayPal and all my Patrons new and old, ongoing and cancelled. I apologize for my complete lack of engagement, I am totally clueless. I will be closing the Patreon.

    Thank you very much to:

    Fr H, Marcus Saffron, Streye, Qwer, Micheal N., Tin V Nguyen, Tiffany T, Dicky Wongsonegoro, Jacques Lebreton, Abimael Martinez, HoronXI, Dude Persona, Miguel razo, Jaideep, Cristian Mahecha, Pedro Otavio Zago Furtado, Matthew Vo, Lunnear

    Thank you very much David Trinh, Klaurem!

    I am very appreciative of your contributions in supporting my poor efforts. I only hope my work had been able to provide some modicum of entertainment.

    Perhaps we will meet again in the future.
