Don&#8217;t worry it&#8217;s not because I&#8217;ve stopped working on\u00a0<em>Daybreak<\/em> or anything.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I had originally hoped to post chapter 18 in June but two major reasons (in addition to just life being busy) caused it to be delayed.<\/p>\n<p>The first is that the laptop that I&#8217;ve been using to write the draft suddenly died on me due to a critical harddrive failure. Normally, when a computer starts developing problems I take more precautions to make sure any content I have on it is backed up. However this time, the failure came out of nowhere for a laptop that I only started using January of this year, and I lost more than a half chapter of draft. Some more mistakes happened when I tried to rewrite this based on my memories and needless to say, this set me back several weeks.<\/p>\n<p>The second is that after I finished chapter 18 and pushed it into beta, I had some&#8230; dissatisfactions from on what the beta-readers thought of it. I&#8217;ve since decided to write out another chapter before the original chapter 18, to better flesh out the contents of some of the scenes in hopefully giving it more impact. This means what I originally planned for chapter 18 will end up being chapter 19 instead, and I certainly don&#8217;t want to release this out-of-order.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that the new chapter 18 is coming along quickly and I&#8217;m fairly hopeful in releasing it within two weeks. The chapter after that (which I need to revisit given the new content which doesn&#8217;t need to be told a second time) should be released soon after if not back-to-back.<\/p>\n<p>Well that&#8217;s all I can say for now as I really don&#8217;t want to spoil any of the coming chapters. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!<\/p>\n<p>Best regards<\/p>\n<p>~ Aorii<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone, it&#8217;s been a while since I&#8217;ve posted a chapter so I figured I&#8217;d put up a status update to keep people informed.
