Hello everyone, "The retard of time" here.

This is not a chapter, but rather review of volume 1 and all the issues that I had with it.

Well lets start from the most glaring one.

THE FUCKING RELEASE TIME.

3 months passed from chapter 18 to chapter 20.

3 FUCKING MONTHS.

Stories started and ended in that time frame, some released more than 30-40 chapters during that whole period, where I made only 2, even though I was constantly writing it.

This is unacceptable, and I believe something must change.

The chapters lengths are god damn INCONSISTENT.

Chapter 3 - 1,055

Chapter 4 - 2,085

...

Chapter 12 - 3,527

Chapter 13 - 3,984

Chapter 14 - 6,231

Chapter 15 - 5,591

Chapter 16 - 6,294

Chapter 17 - 6,622

Chapter 18 - 7,965

Chapter 19 - 11,845

Chapter 20 - 15,320

The hell is that? Did someone smoke fucking glue or something? Who can read 15k words in one go? Text analyzer told me that it would take 39 minutes to read that shit.

This must be changed too.

But there is a small issue concerning that. I HATE SHORT CHAPTERS that are about nothing. I perfectly understand that they are popular, and that they abuse the royalroadl website algorithm for 'top weakly', and additional to that they constantly are in the 'latest updates', where they can reach broader audience and more people can read it, and so on.

Anyway. I will not be doing 1-3k chapter. Even if it gets more 'views' and 'reach'.

I want chapters that feel as if something in story change or progressed.

I want chapters that make people smile or exited when they see new release.

I want chapters that make people feel something, not just 'Oh another chapter'.

Nevertheless will try to make sure that there won't be anymore waiting time like this.

I spik Ingrish.

I don't have much to say here. The auto-corrector constantly botches words and I have to reread the whole chapter several times to make sure that the words weren't changed. Additional to that I am an absolute retard and English is also my seconds language, but that does not excuse the mistakes I make.

Totally unacceptable.

What's next?

When I started writing the story I thought that I would reach this point within 3 months not 8. Therefore some stuff had to be skipped or ignored. But the story continues, there is a lot of stuff ahead, a lot more movement, and many more character.

As you have noticed there is a poll on what exactly you would like me to write about next, if the option is not withing the poll, please write it in comments.

To be frank, I feel that I have grown as a human, maybe even as third-tier writer, during the whole process of writing this story, learning, improving and changing. But for me it is still so primitive that looking at chapter 20 I cringe at the pathetic level of writing I did.

'Oh look, my doodles now start to look like something, this doodle looks like a house, even though I tried to draw a cat.'

There were many emotions that I wanted to make the reader feel in the chapters 19-20, they were very important to me, and that is why I wanted to release the chapters together.

But I royally failed.

The sentences repeat themselves, the dialogs feel stretched, as if someone just wanted the characters to speak, and they spoke. And generally all the characters feel so fake that you can neither bond with them, nor do you feel their emotions.

Fail. Try again. Repeat until you get better.

Thank you very much for reading, and continuing to read this shitty story.

See you soon.
