Status Update

Categories:

I finally bit the bullet to reset my password and log back in. Hopefully, I’ll get back to posting regularly.

Let’s just say there was a terrible mix of  personal stuff and burnout amplified by COVID. It got to the point I was dreading making posts like it was a chore, so instead I just stopped it all. Then felt guilty and kept procrastinating on the guilt.

Thanks to everyone who commented and reached out!

    Thanks for all the work you’ve put into translations for all this time; I’ve been on the mailing list since 2016 and have many fond memories of reading the novels you’ve translated. I hope you’re doing well!

    I’m happy to hear that you’re ok! There was never the fear of you not posting, only worries that something had happened to you.

    Thank you for coming back! You did the right decision to put your mental health first and you should not feel guilt over that. I’ve been following your translations for years now and i am sure that everyone is very happy to see you are back, but most importantly, that you are okay. It is a privilege to read your work, and i am always thankful for the effort you dedication you show. Anyways, i hope you will always choose to put your own health and happiness first, but as long as you keep posting, THANK YOU for being here!!!!

    Oh gosh, I checked this site out of habit coz I sometimes came back to reread the stories. I didn’t expect to see this update.

    First off, I’m so glad you’re okay!
    There is no shame in taking a break or no longer finding joy in what you used to do. I’m glad you’re back but I really hope you get to enjoy the process of translating as much as we are reading your works.

    Secondly, I know you have a patreon but have you considered opening up a Discord? I’d love if we could have a community to discuss the novels as well as to hang out with others. You could also let us know if your status. Not to pressure you or anything, but I legit scared you’re in a coma or something while you’re gone. Just so happy to see you’re back again. tears of joy

    Hello and welcome back!!! So glad to hear from you. I was a little worried about you when you stopped posting, because with COVID still rampant, your silence could mean anything from real life difficulties and burn out to death.

    Been here since your very first translation project, and for a time, visiting your site every day became a habit. That’s years of parasocial history lol. So I just wanted to let you know that you’re appreciated and I hope you continue to be well. Keep safe! xoxo

    I am so glad to see you are back, and more importantly, ALIVE! I’m sorry life has been hard, it happens, thank you for taking your health into priority. I was shocked to open the website and see the changes, I did not see this post pinned, so I was worried someone had taken over the site…

    Don’t overdo, just know that you were missed and we are just happy to see you back! How exciting!
