《Congratulations, You're Dead!》Congrats! has come to an end.
Advertisement
So... Like Sorrel at the end of the last chapter. I had intented to take a break, maybe write something else, and then come back to this. And, thanks to my large backlog, I probably would have done so before any of you even knew. But, I just never came back to it.
"Congratulations, You're Dead!" was a lot of firsts for me. First long-form fiction(almost 300k words, over 10x longer than anything else I've written before), first romance, first slice of life story. And, I made a lot of mistakes along the way.
I went into this story with no plan at all, and since nothing was planned, a few things went of the rails. I didn't know what I wanted from this, but now know what I don't. Sorrel being Supergod™ levels of O.P. probably being at the top of the list. I mean, I fucking nerfed him, and then gave him near infinite mana a week later. What the hell was I thinking?
I haven't really been happy for most of book three, and I think it's shown through lately. Especially in the last arc where it pretty much just devolved into smut. Nothing wrong with smut, but it's not the story I wanted to write.
So, yeah. This is the end. I'm sorry to those of you who were looking forward to seeing where the story went. Like I said, I don't really have a plan, but I do have a general idea of where things where going. So, if there's some question that you just need closure on, feel free to ask in the comments below. Try to keep the ranting to a minimum, though. Please.
I am working on something else right now, and will probably release it within a month. I'm about half way through the first book(not sure how many I want to write, but I'd like it to be a longer series), and don't want to release anything until I've got at least that one book done.
Thank you all for you supporting this story(I still can't believe it got as popular as it did), and I hope you return for what comes next.
