I am just a reader. And while I have 12 years’ worth of reading light novels, mangas and fantasy books, I still lack the endurance and devotion to truly write something I would put my heart into, which would be more than just a silly small thing with 10 chapters. 

Yet I became capable of finding faults within other novels so much that I can no longer stop myself from putting it somewhere. Especially because sometimes those faults become the reason I can’t read my favorite novel anymore. It went downhill just too much. 

So this is my collection of the aspects and tips on how to make your writing a better quality.

I was writing a chapter, and it was half done, but I opened a browser to research something and ended up reading comments. (You know how that happens. Like you reading about advanced robots, but you ended up looking for Apocalypse novels.)

Many people want me to continue the business arc, and I can't say I am not tempted.

So I decided to take a poll. I write comments and after day whichever has more like, I will write in that direction.

I am ready for challenges too if anyone wants to suggest something in the novel, let me know and I will try to write that as well.

American Arc:
Harry will get revenge for Petunia and Sara. 
This arc will be a little slow and more detailed for magic and changes the world compares to the original.
Meanwhile preparing for his plan, he will go to America as part of his bigger plan.

Hogwarts arc:
It will be faster than the previous one and less detailed. But of course it will cover the story, so missing details will be used as a conversation. For example, on the train Harry and Ron will talk about those things, that way, no important point will be missed, but less detailed.
There are also a few added stories, but that will come along in both arcs.


This way the story will develop. I try to write without giving away big spoilers.

I am inclined toward the American arc because that way my early preparation won't be wasted, but currently, I am writing a chapter for the Hogwarts arc.(i know it's really laughable)

Like whichever arc you want me to write. I hope our silent Wizards/Witches come forward this one to give your opinion. 

Poll open for only 24 hours.

Once again if anyone wants to add something related to the story, a comment about it. I am open to challenging myself as I begin writing this novel to improve and later I can write my original novel.

I decided to make a poll after reading Fellow wizards comments.

He was reborn as Harry Potter, but at the wrong time. That wasn't the only problem. As time passed, he found that it wasn't the same world as Harry Potter which he knew from the novel.

One of the biggest differences was polygamy in the Wizarding world, but well it is great since he has a harem system. It's like "Favorite food and doctor recommended it when ill." 

Join the journey of Harry, a young wizard who embark on the road of friendship, passion, and love, to become the Harem Lord!

Biggest Harem ever!

Disclaimer: Neither cover nor original story belongs to me. If anyone of them has a problem, I will take it down or delete it entirely.

I'm actually a little doubtful there are people still here now... I mean, there's only two Original Works I even want to work on: Those being this and An Adventure Beyond Greatness! ...Though I feel kinda unmotivated when I'm writing by myself and there's no one to talk to. Life's empty these days...

There are times I'm motivated by 'Hey, there might be a comment the next time I post' and then I just wait for it, feel satisfied once I see it, then go write the next chapter because I feel some worth in spending my time writing a story for readers.

I've also tried working on a Gaiaverse RP Amino that has three works as it's foundation (Battlefield Restart, An Adventure Beyond Greatness, and An Identity Beyond Self, that are basically three different variants of Isekai) but don't have any experience in Role-Playing so I don't know how to write the Guidelines. I already made plans to write a fictional universe like the Gaiaverse but there's too little things I am able to do for it right now...

A lot of IRL stuff have been weighing down on my mind recently. I'm not sure if I should be following the trends online to grab readers or just do as I want... Ah, I'm jealous of those who do as they want and don't question it like the characters I create. And also feeling inferior to actual authors...

Anyway, I find myself a better critic rather than writing my own works thanks to my very nitpicking nature acting up whenever I see a good story that only needs some improvements. There are those who I've seen give 'feedback' on stories online but why do I feel they miss the point of being a critic?

I've went around A LOT of websites that have to do with writing and in the end, I found there was one big example of what I mean on closer than I thought Discord. There was a chapter that ticked all my boxes and made me interested as a reader on top of it about its plot but in the end of the day all I saw was a 'feedback' telling this good writer that they 'made a mistake by not explaining the core conflicts and character's personality in-depth'.

This critique really made my head turn as I couldn't understand how they missed the point of the chapter as well as how 'not giving information that isn't needed right now' adds an air of mystique.

I mean, there's a difference between 'narrating' for your audience and 'telling them the details'. The former layers a story with emotions while the latter only make them this 'yep, this is happening now'.

After all, investment doesn't come from knowing the overall situation but the characters who draw intrigue. Question like: 'What are this man's intentions?' And 'Does this person actually mean what they say?' Are what adds subtext that shows that the writer is trusting their reader connect the dots that aren't outright stated in the story.

Of course, there's a difference between holding back information because you yourself don't have the answers and doing it because you have a plan for later. Even Professional Authors like the J.R.R Martin name drop organisations and places before going in-depth once they become relevant later.

What my point is that as long as you have a plan for later, it isn't NECESSARY to give all the information at once. If you summarise the story in the first chapter alone, what will you have for later?

It's like how badly the Cautious Hero Anime could have become if it only repeated its main gimmick without any flare later on (though if your story is based off nothing more than a gimmick then you should keep it as a short story rather than lengthening it for no reason). Instead it actually had a lot more elements that was explored later on.

My reason for going on and on about this is because I feel that there are too many with their critics aiming towards what they want to see later because it's interesting rather than if the written draft is good right now.

I know this sounds similar to what I wrote that time I quite this story which was basically 'I got harassed by people not knowing how to criticise a story properly' but I feel like it's still relevant now.

Well... That's all I got. Be sure to tell me if you guys want a rant or analysis on something and I'll add it to the list of numbered blogs in the Auxiliary Chapters. And you might want to tune in since a plot twist you kinda saw coming but didn't expect to happen will come up in the next few chapters.

The end of the 2nd Arc is near!

(Cover by Darkstar Dust)

This is a story I worked on ages ago that has been refined and edited by adding foreshadowing to events while also simplifying the power system better than before. This story can be considered a prequel to An Adventure Beyond Greatness as it takes place years prior to the events of that story.

Short Synopsis:
After retiring from the battlefield, my life became empty and lifeless. The regrets of my past haunt me in my sleep. Then a change occurred, a King from another world summoned me to fight for his kingdom, but I died even before I could give him my answer. Now, after a fake God allowed me to reincarnate (albeit imperfectly) with my memories intact, into a world filled with magic and swords.

Long Synopsis:
This is about a flawed protagonist who only knew to rely on others and not socialise who gets a second chance to change himself in order to live the life he aimed for in his past life. The narrator isn’t exactly trustworthy since it is purely in his bias perspective while other perspectives given by others fill in the blanks that he either leaves out or twists to suit the situation.

The story itself can be considered a parody of Isekai’s classic tropes which are given a sense of reality as time goes by. As there exists no ‘Demon Lord’, there is also no black and white, only characters opinions and counter-opinions throughout the story.

Hey everyone! We are past the 50 chapters mark, and I think it is time for an author's thought chapter!
As usual, don't worry, the next story chapter is coming right after.

Some of you may, or may not, know that Rebuilding the Sun Kingdom was rebooted a few months back. I wanted to flesh out some characters, fix some of my mistakes, change the pace of the story as well as many of the events, basically I wanted to make of RSK a more engaging story.

If you are curious about the old story, you can find the old chapters here : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/6ulmkzckkl5zc81/AAD_6WJUYqOpN5GSTThBrJp5a?dl=0

If you have questions don't hesitate to ask them in the comments, I will not answer here but I will make another Author's Thoughts chapter later on, where I will list and answer everything I can.

******* ******* ******* ******* ******* *******

As some may know (from my previous posts) I did not just jump in and say "let's scratch everything and start from zero". I first started improving character dialogues and descriptions, I rewrote a few events and it quickly became obvious that the changes were too much for me to just edit past chapters without doing a proper reboot. As readers would miss important changes and be confused by their consequences. And so I decided to start over which would, in turn, allow me to do even bigger changes (more on that later). 
But I did not want to just come back to old chapters and just edit out/in what I wanted. I felt that this had to be a true rewrite and so I had to start from scratch and rewrite every single word of every single chapters even if I was describing the same events. This meant starting from a blank page and writing the chapter. This gave me more freedom and since I didn't have to worry about what was already written the changes were more natural. I also felt it was more honest for my viewers.

* * *

And so my first challenge, after deciding to reboot, was what to do with the first (ten or so) chapters. I was fully aware that many readers would be unhappy with the reboot, and the first chapters would not help as they would not be changed much.
Those chapters are, after all, the foundation of the story as well as the reason I started to write RSK. Messing too much with those would mean writing a completely different story. They were also very close to what I wanted as I had spent weeks preparing them.
Luckily I still had some things to fix for the story to flow more naturally, and some extra details to add to explain what was happening better. 
This was, for example, the legend of the Human Goddess, details on how the king was chosen, what the royal garments meant and so on. The goal was to add legitimacy to Chris' status. This is not enough to guarantee a prosperous and long reign for Chris, but I believe, as I like to say, that it is enough for the people to follow the 'clothes' right now, and perhaps later follow the man himself. That is when Chris has proven himself. 

But I still wanted to go past the beginning quickly, as I had tons of new stuff to share. This lead me to prepare a stack of chapters before announcing my return with the reboot. And so I wrote 30 chapters in secret, which took me two full months of work. This allowed me to publish them at a rate of 2 every day for 3 whole weeks. (I continued writing every day as I was publishing them, which allowed me to stretch that release spree to a little more than 3 weeks.)

Strangely, the first ten or so chapters, took me longer than the next 10. I did not have much to change, but every change was much harder to do. Because they would impact events much later in the story. 
For example, we are still not at Chris' coronation. We are probably a hundred or so chapter from that, but I still have most of it ready, and I had many (cool) changes done because of the new details I added early on (legend of dawn, royal garments, and so on).

** ** **

My second challenge was obvious, but it was to re-work the story events, by making them more appealing but also by moving them in the timeline and sometimes completely removing them.
This was one of the most complicated aspect of the rewrite for me. As moving around the events can have cascading effects in the story line. Like how and where characters are introduced or what consequences this change will have in future events.

This is because the author is (or should be) trapped by his own work (in a good way). Bad writers just don't care and will write anything they want even if it goes against a character's personality or against the world itself. While the others will notice that their previous words open and restrict the world they are creating.
Let's take a very simple and non-spoilery example : Rinat (the chief carpenter). She is a strong person, she is very talented in carpentry, one of the most important profession in that era and she is also very liked by everyone. In the original draft she was introduced in Brine City, which made no sense at all. If she was from Five Cave Village, how could Chris not even hear about her before then? And so I moved her introduction to the FCV arc. This seems simple enough. But now I had to explain why there were so few horse-drawn carts in the village and why they were in such a bad shape. They have an awesome carpenter around, how is that possible?! 
This is a little detail, but it's the kind of things I had to pay attention to, for every single change made in the story.
I'd say, this troubled me for most of the chapters between 10 and 40. Those chapters were diverging more and more from the old draft, but there was still plenty of things in common to which I had to pay attention to.

*** *** ***

This lead me to my third challenge, which kind of sneaked up on me.
I soon noticed that I had trouble remembering to which draft some of the small details belonged to. These were not crucial to the story and were just there to flesh out the characters. But since they were not crucial, they could be placed pretty much anywhere in the story without much consequence. They just helped you understand more the character or discover a bit more about the world. 
Luckily my earlier decision to rewrite every single word in the novel instead of editing chapters one by one helped me out quite a bit there. 
But there were still a few times where I forgot I mentioned an aspect of a character and introduced it later in the story, luckily, LtBeefy my editor, caught these for me :).

**** **** ****

And my current major challenge. We are closing in to chapter 67 of the old draft, (the attack on the Kunalls camp), but there has been so many changes (many new characters, new potential antagonist like the prince, many events removed or added, PoV chapters, new factions introduced like the elves and so on) that the story is now very different to what it was.

But there are also many things from the old draft that I was have not written about that I plan to bring back. And it's really tough for me to mix that completely new content with the 'old' one.

An example would be Carl, one of the scouts under Titus.
In the old draft he was introduced after Chris had 'published' his tutorial on how to recruit people. "Suckering them in - 101". Carl appeared as a simple pure man, who followed his king's order and was completely convinced by their efficiency. After all he had managed to recruit a refugee camp thanks to these very words.
But in the current story, Carl is a very active man who has done much for Chris, he was there when they found the necromancer cave, he was the leader of the expedition to find a spot for Brine City, and he might have found a potential romance doing so.
It is now much harder for me to write about him taking advantage of Chris' tutorial on recruiting to 'sucker in' a group of refugee. After all he has recruited many groups of refugees so far, it wouldn't be interesting to just see him doing it again with a new technique particularly if it's just with a random group of refugees. it would be a "it worked great before, so what's the point?" moment.
So there must be a special reason for him to pull out the 101 techniques. And as it turns out, he still has one group that refused him, the one his potential romance interest is part of. And so the story, logically, pushes me towards this.  (See? The author writes the story, but the story also shackles the author). But now I have more parameters limiting me, and the event is now harder to write.

And that's where I am at, which explains (partially) the delays for each chapter. I might not write every day right now, as I lack time. But I am thinking every day of new stuff to add to the story. I have a 3 pages long list of events saved on a text file on my desktop, each event taking a single line at most. So I have plenty of stories to tell. 
Do not worry if the updates are spaced out lately, you will always have a chapter released soon :). 

***** ***** ***** *****

And finally, I was asked previously if I have an end planned for the story.
And the answer is "Yes". I already know how to end the story. I have not written the chapter yet because the characters and the world will likely change outside of what I am envisioning right now. But the main script is done, and I am in love with it and can't wait to share it.

And I do plan to end the story logically and not stretch things out. I will never add filler arcs and chapters and will always only write because it's either necessary or fun. 
I've got an ending planned  and I want to share it. Not delay it to the 22th century:). 

That's all for this chapter's on my thoughts and challenges. I hope you enjoyed it. The next chapter will be published in a few clicks!

Chris, our hero, wakes up in a world where different races are fighting for supremacy. Humanity is in a tough spot as the humans are now scattered in the ruins of their kingdom. Cities are no more, armies are long defeated and survivors are hunted.

More maps are revealed as the story progresses.

As I sleep, there is a voice trying to call out to me. 

"Hey, Wake up.."

I turned my head away. But the sound still didn't go away, instead the voice became even louder, Then, I felt a bit pain above my forehead.

"Write a good story, please make good books!"

I opened my eyes slowly. I didn't remember what I've been doing, nor have I found who was the voice calling out to me, and so too, was the wall I looked at which had some anime drawings plastered on with post-it's of notes beside. As I start to recall what I was going to say or do, just then, the tv in the bedroom turned on despite i was doing nothing, right I was surprised just getting up, and I remember about the book I was practising, as I ignore what happened just now, I get up and grab the phone on the stand and start typing words.

"Hello people, whoever reads my practice story book, I've come to tell you all about some stuff about this book, so here we go!"

All I could remember was when I finally broke down, my heartbeat was pounding like crazy for seconds, and I wanted nothing but to lie down on my bed for a brief rest, perhaps caused by 5 consecutive days of studying and working overtime  at my job I have pushed myself to the limit, to be honest I thought I was dead for a second, oh well, anyway, I am announcing a couple things relating to the story.

"Alright then, this story the way I wanted it to head has broken because of me, why sadly, cause of my practising and trying complicating paths for someone like me, I can't see how this is heading anymore, so it is like a puzzle with bad spellings and even different story writing styles or words layout.

"Despite that I'm still going to be posting here, as for the original story, I plan to re-write the whole thing once someone or myself finds the writing of it ok, what I mean is the way I try explaining my story's for the readers and my interest that I'm satisfied with so I could write more story's as I have a lot of ideas, but my way of explaining is awful I say."

"Next chapter is Kate, to be honest I am never going to do a word layout again, as this chapters side is complex because it's a gaming fantasy i tried from a different book, as the 1th chapter of this book is near the original path, but sad, cause the words are missed up with miss spelling words that ruined it."

"I think I might change the title temporarily or not, I just do not know, ya know.."

"I really want to get good at writing novels for others to read not for my own fame, but to be interesting to read, as light novel books that inspired me to try to write, only thing is I would like to see what I wrote or I gave a great story ideas for someone else to develop on and one day become anime."

"Alex and Kate are my childhood imagination story about anime, as It was a past writing from notes on my old phone and my past View as well as trying to change and fix misspelling behaviour, but now it's like I said broken, won't be good chapters from the original but if you plan to read still, Thank you, and Sorry for the mess

Well… We've finally come to the end of Spirit Immortal. 

Hehe, I bet you guys didn't see it coming right? The cover of the book was actually the ending scene of the entire story! Haha, I did well to keep it under wraps for the two years I've been writing this story! Finally, I get to share it all with you!

For those that had stuck with me for the near two years, I've been posting Spirit Immortal… It's been quite the hell of a ride. There were many days where I wanted to quit writing this story and there were many times where I just wanted to say: "Fuck it! Let me just leave everything and just tell you the outline of Spirit Immortal straight up!" However, because of you guys, I gritted my teeth and completed the story. 

So… Before I begin the FINAL Author's Thoughts of Spirit Immortal, I want to give a huge thank you for all who supported me. Especially my Patrons, who had actually invested money into Spirit Immortal even though you guys didn't have to. There are some of you who have invested hundreds of dollars to support this project of mine and I don't know how else I could repay you for your continued support... 

Honestly, I lack the words to describe my gratitude, so I can only say this…

Thank you all for being the rock in my life, guiding me to complete the story that I dreamed about so many years back…

Alright, enough of the emotional stuff! Let's get to the real meat of the Author's Thoughts. This will be my longest Author's Thoughts yet so if you lack the time, you really don't have to read it all. However, for those that had read Spirit Immortal all the way, I'm sure that you'll find it all very interesting.

Let me divide it into sections first, just to keep me on track. Firstly, I'll be discussing the overall story of Spirit Immortal. How I conceived it from a theory that I had, the inspirations I took and ultimately… The ending that I'm sure only a percentage of you saw coming.

Secondly, I'll be talking about the challenges I had writing Spirit Immortal. My journey from a teenager in university that had no clue about how to write, to the man that I am now. The challenges that a new author in the web novel genre will come to face and hopefully, it'll teach any of you aspiring authors to not repeat the same mistakes that I'd made.

Thirdly, I'll be writing about the things that I would have done differently (ie, the things that I would want to do in future when writing future stories). Also, the lessons learnt that I wish to impart on my future self, as well as any budding authors reading this. 

Finally… I'm going to talk about my future works and how I'll be approaching writing web novels in the future.

It's going to be a long ride since I'll be trying to condense two years worth of experience into one document, so please bear with me.

Story of Spirit Immortal
As many of you know, I am a fan of Wuxia/Xianxia novels. They have played an integral part of my teenage life, giving me content to binge through while I rode through my schooling years. By now, you should be familiar with how I got into Wuxia/Xianxia, so I'll skip the long introduction and get to the reason why I imagined Spirit Immortal as a Wuxia.

I had a different take about Immortality than the other novels.

It was really as simple as that. In traditional novels, like Coiling Dragon or Doulou Dalu, the ultimate goal for the protagonist was to become an Immortal. Some even have realms above the Immortal Realm and they continually become stronger until they reach Godhood. It's a tale that we've all read before. However, my thoughts about Immortality are a little different.

I don't believe that Eternal Life exists. Or at the very least, not in the way Wuxia/Xianxia novels portray it. Let me explain.

What does Immortal mean? A literal definition means, not mortal. So, before we get to that, let's define what mortal means first. A mortal is any living thing that exists in reality, doing their best to continue their ultimate goal… To live. See, it doesn't matter if you are a human or a dog, a tree or a pig. We're all living creatures fighting against our final destination… death. As much as we don't like to admit it, all living things will die one day. That's what makes them 'living' in the first place. We have immune systems to protect against viruses. Possess various traits that will help us survive in our reality. Legs to run, arms to hunt, mouths to eat, sexual organs to reproduce…

All of these attributes are what makes us mortal. Which means that the desires that come from these attributes are also mortal desires. We hunger to live. We lust to reproduce and further on our genetic lineage. We anger to pump ourselves into action to defend our survival. Every single emotion that humans feel are linked to one main thing… To live. Even trees, which are effectively mortal, respond to changes and adapt to live. 

So what happens when you turn Immortal? All of our survival instincts, all of our desires that make us mortal… It all goes away. 

We will no longer want to do anything because we've already lost our most primal need to survive. Hunger becomes redundant since you won't die. Sexual desires disappear since there's no need for you to reproduce anymore. Feelings of anger, sadness, anxiety, fear… All of them would be stripped bare of any mortal. 

Once we become 'Immortal' we cease being 'Mortal'. Sounds stupid to say out loud, but in most cultivation novels, the protagonist becomes Immortal but still acts as a Mortal. Desiring to grow stronger even though he/she has obtained eternal life. Lusting over new girls in the new realm. Feeling emotions that no Immortal should have… All of these got me wondering…

How could I make a story about an Immortal with this logic that I have?

And then it hit me… The journey.

I have to make a journey tale, one where the protagonist starts from nothing and obtains everything that he'd ever thought possible. And it's not like the journey was perfect. Shin lost people on the way. Learned lessons from a myriad of characters. Took on the journey of life to become the 'perfect hero' that was slated to become the next 'Immortal.' And at the end of it all… He'll realise that Immortality was just a lie made up by humans to feel better about his mortality. 

All humans live. All humans die. In the end, what really matters is the journey that we all take while we're living. It doesn't matter if you become a successful billionaire or a struggling pauper. It doesn't matter if you get to live your dreams or be a recluse that loves to watch shows all day. As long as you're satisfied with your life's journey. That's all that matters.

At least, that was what I was trying to convey in Spirit Immortal.

Remember when I said that I wanted to finish this story because I wanted all of you to see my ending? The ending that I created was to show what my thoughts were about mortality. The life of a mortal, the journey that said mortal would take and finally… The end that no one can escape from. Spirit Immortal isn't a story about Immortality like other Wuxias. It's a story about… Mortality.

I'll be the first to admit. I lost control over the story of Spirit Immortal halfway through writing it. The original storyboard was for Shin to have a single drive (Ariel's resurrection) to carry him all the way to the ending. The ending that would reveal that the Immortal Realm doesn't exist and they were all cogs in a wheel to power the World Spirit. However, as I wrote more settings, introduced more characters, the storyline became more convoluted.

I'm an author that doesn't like to keep things rigid. As I keep adding new things into the story, it would morph whatever narrative I'm trying to write. Kanari's introduction as the secondary love interest was the major turning point for Spirit Immortal as well. I'd initially thought of Kanari as a friend character that was ultimately there only to fuel Shin's growth and to eventually meet Ariel. However, as I'd thought about it… Would Shin really behave that way when a beauty and good-hearted person like Kanari was chasing him? Was love truly eternal and could Shin only be single-minded about one person till the very end.

Then there were more realistic scenarios that I could think of which broke Shin's motivations. Even if Yggdrasil was real and Shin resurrected Ariel, he would still be a mature adult while Ariel would be a fifteen-year-old girl. Was that really realistic for Shin to ignore Kanari, a beautiful woman who had been chasing him when he was a hormonal youth, for a future with an uncertain Ariel.

And finally, I wanted to put in the family aspect into Shin's cultivation life. Family was an important aspect of all human beings. It's what fuels our evolution as a race and what drives us to live yet another day. So, Shin has to have a family before he ascends. So that he could make the final decision that he made at the end…

To not return to Earth and warn people that Immortality was a choice that Shin had to make. The world needs to have this cycle. Cultivators trying to ascend to Immortality, only to become energy for the new generation to rise up. That completes the evolution cycle of the Spirit Immortal world and Shin can only understand that if he has children of his own.

I've hidden many clues throughout the early books about the true nature of the Immortal Realm as well. Remember in Book 1 when I said the Spirit Immortals "burst into energy?" Also, in Book 2, the Mushinkei, the Frie Clan's house in Chilyoja Waypoint, means "Godless" in Japanese. And who could forget the easiest clue that I gave you all? Dexsot Teinost? Literally you can rearrange the words to form "It does not exist." Yes, yes. Very similar to the Harry Potter one with Voldermolt, but still! None of you got it! I even made it clear that I like scrambling words around with the Frie and Awter Clan all the way back in Book 1! 

Challenges
The challenges of being a writer, particularly an online one, is a completely foreign concept to me when I first started writing. I began to write because of my love of it and I'd thought that it would be easy. There are literally thousands of stories online and they each had their own unique flair. Some of them were terrible, some of them were masterpieces. And well… I got inspired by both types.

The masterpieces made me fall in love with stories. The shit stories made me realise… Anyone could write. Particularly online when there were no gatekeepers like traditional books. So even someone like me, who has bad English and horrendous storytelling skills can actually write something to the masses. 

Thinking back, I really was young and naive.

The most challenging part of being a novelist isn't the lack of time, which believe me, I was always swamped. It wasn't even the social toll that it takes. I had to give up many social events or at least plan ahead many weeks because I stuck to this daily schedule of releasing a chapter a day. 

The most challenging part of being a novelist is… Writer fatigue. 

There were so many days that I just couldn't type a single word. I didn't know how to pen my story. I didn't know how to write my settings. I didn't want to write anything because of how burnt out I was… I lost all my love for Spirit Immortal after consistently writing about it for two years. I couldn't bring myself to the keyboard, distracting myself with youtube videos and other entertainment means.

I would miss the days where my fingers would dance on the keyboard. I remember there was once I wrote a thousand words in an hour, and ten thousand words in a day. However, at my lowest point of my writer's fatigue. I couldn't even write a thousand words a day. 

That's why as the story neared its end, the quality kept dropping. I couldn't bring myself to write two thousand words a day, which was the limit I placed on myself and could only come down to a thousand words. It was heart-wrenching, knowing that I was responsible for the dip in quality in Spirit Immortal, the story that all of you readers spent your valuable time to read. 

I could spin a thousand excuses. Not enough time to write. Meeting up with my friends. Real-life obligations. Real-life work comes first. However, all in all, the main reason why I couldn't write… It's because I was tired. I was falling out of love with Spirit Immortal, even though it was the story that I dreamt into reality. I wanted to keep writing, but the author inside of me didn't exist in the shape that he used to be in.

BUT! I'm glad I faced all of those challenges, particularly with my first long-form novel. I now know what challenges lie ahead of me and I know what I must do from now on. To not just grow as an author, but as a person as well. 

Lessons learnt
Major lesson learnt… Spend more time storyboarding, and less time writing. A chapter a day is all well and good, but if the quality is shit, why bother? So I decided from here on out. I will no longer be releasing daily chapters. Maybe I'll be releasing three or four chapters a week, or even less. I can't tell you for sure right now. This is to prevent burning out once again.

Writing is not equal to authoring. I'd thought that as long as I crafted a good story, I could be a good writer. However, I now know that I'm shit at writing. My English is bad, and my execution is subpar at best. So I will be learning more from other novels to hopefully bolster up my bad writing skills. I will keep evolving, or at least, that's my hope. I will come back a better writer that could flawlessly execute the marvellous stories that I crafted in my head.

The Future of Linodo
Easy. I'm not quitting just because I'd finished Spirit Immortal. I will be continuing my second story, "When the Lilyflower Blooms..." while writing my new standalone book which I had been putting off for the longest time. I won't be returning to Wuxia/Xianxia books because I realise I'm not cut out for this genre. I can't write the 1000-2000 chapters that the undying Chinese Authors can. I can only go for so long before I burn out. 

So Lilyflower will be my comeback in an alternate genre, magical reality. I plan to write Lilyflower for about 100-200 chapters, 300 max. I don't want to keep my story never-ending and open-ended. I just want to make sure that the journey is fun for all of you. 

I won't be writing a Spirit Immortal sequel or any short stories from here on out. If I want to move on, I have to close this chapter called 'Spirit Immortal' from my life. If you guys want, you can privately message me about the theories of Spirit Immortal and I'll be sure to discuss anything that you want. However, for the most part, my creativity will now be focused on Lilyflower and the other stories that I have conceived thus far.

The End
So yeah… That's it for Spirit Immortal! I hope you've enjoyed these two years as much as I did. No matter what I say about this story, no matter how much time I've lost writing this and spending my heart's emotions on it… Spirit Immortal will always be a part of me. It would be a story that I would return to every once in a while to laugh at my young mind and enjoy thinking about forever after.

Thank you for reading Spirit Immortal and may the Immortals bless your soul! :)

Over a million years ago, the first human contracted with the first Spirit. Ever since then, Spirit use has become commonplace. Humans used Spirits to carry items and start fires. Eventually, even start wars. Thousands upon thousands of years past and one day, one human did the impossible. He transcended his mortality and ascended to the realm above.  

In the present day, the Frie Clan was once a great clan of the Himmel empire. However, a devastating battle ten years ago crippled the clan and their numbers dwindled. To make up for their loss, the upper echelons decided to adopt young orphans and nurture them to become a future pillar of the weakened clan. Shin was one of those orphans. 

Although picked up by the Frie Clan, not all is smooth sailing for Shin and the other orphans...

Hey Guys! 👋

I write this Auxiliary Chapter to keep the ones of you interested in how far the next chapter is and when you can expect the release of said chapter.

Also if the case should happen of me dropping this novel you can also read about it in this Auxiliary Chapter.

To get to the point:

Word count of the upcoming chapter:

2300/2500 Words. Sorry Guys that it takes me so long, I haven't forgotten about this story, I habe just been extremely busy studying, and when I had free time I didn't want to write...

Guessed time of the release: 

No Idea. Hopefully not to long.

Plan on dropping the novel:

~ Won't be dropped, I will mix things up for me with my Starcraft Story though so releases will probably be even farther away from each other. For those who only plan on reading this story sorry to disappoint you, but I'm doing this for fun, a point that I often forget. So writing what makes me happy is the most important thing. If the Starcraft Story leads me nowhere and is badly received I will switch all my attention to this book again. Until then wish me luck and check out my other story, should there already be a chapter! ~

Important Stuff:

I have seen that some of you might be unhappy with how the MC turned out. I would like to change that. If you have any problems understanding what and why the MC did something in Chapter "Insert Number" please let me know in the comment section of the right "Insert chapter". Stupid and annoying MCs are one of the reasons why I started writing that's why that critique hit me in the feels. Help me fix any parts that could spark misunderstandings as soon as something feels wrong to you.

A 23 year old Student dies in a motorcycle accident. Not having done anything evil in his short life God lets him choose in what Universe he wants spend his next life. After some thinking he decides the wisest choise would be something harmless like the Pokémon Universe. 

Waking up he has to realize that his new Life won‘t be easy as he wished it would be. 
Now stuck with his new body he has to find a good way to live on his own....

Im back as you can tell from the title.

So first things first I'm sorry for the long wait. I honestly thought about just stopping this novel altogether but I realized that I still want to write even if I'm not good at it. The only bad thing is that I struggle heavily with writing and my own life outside this so my update schedule is incredibly inconsistent. In the time I've been gone I've written almost 20 2000k word each chapters but deleted each and every one of them as I didn't like how the story was going or some other thing that annoyed me. 

In the end I finally kinda realized how I wanna write this story and make it work. So now I'll explain how it will work and how the MC is gonna be. 

Okay so first things first is that instead of a single individual traveling through worlds it's more like one guy split into many. By this I mean that the MC will have his soul split into many slices and will have each of them sent into different universes and worlds. You don't have to worry about them gaining Individual consciousness or turning against the MC as they are all the MC. They all have the exact same personality and beliefs and are all aware of the others so they are basically one giant team of the same person. I know this might sound a little needless or stupid but the upside of writing the novel this way is that I can devote myself entirely to each MC in each world and plan his growth accordingly. 

My main problem when I was writing was that my MC was gonna become OP way too fast. Like within the first world he'd already be able to breeze through all the next ones and that made my feel empty when writing cause he literally had no challenge and no growth past a certain point. So my plan is to have each MC grow to the peak of each world/universe and then all merge back into one being becoming super OP in the end for a special ending. This way all the readers get to have a character that grows in every world and you'll basically have a new journey in each world. 

Also another hidden benefit of this is that I'll be able to write for a longer time as i can basically just write forever by sending a MC to a world whenever I feel like it. This also means that any world you recommend me will have a high chance of being visited and explored deeply. I'm even willing to go to cooking worlds or sports worlds and even cultivation worlds. Literally any ideas whether it be games/tv/anime/manga/movies/etc. If it fits then I'll think of sending one to said world. That would allow all you readers to be way more heavily invested in this novel and even have a part in suggesting things which is what I want. Pretty cool right? I haven't seen anyone do this yet so I'm kinda excited to see how it goes cause the possibilities are kinda endless. 

Second is that MC is gonna be somewhat of a sociopath. Not in the case of totally lacking morals but more of it being that he is incredibly antisocial and doesn't have the best opinion about humanity. He has seen the dark shit that plagues the world and is already disillusioned by it all. This doesn't mean he hates all humans though as he sees hope in children and good people. He wants to protect that innocence and goodness from the evil that exists. This also doesn't that he's a beta male or soyboy though because he will destroy entire enemy planets and kill enemies without hesitation as they will bring problems left alive. At least that's what he believes. Also he isn't some kind of expert fighter or anything like that. He's just a normal guy who never killed but would without hesitation if pushed the wrong way. So basically normal guy who would kill easily but hasn't yet and antisocial with a slight lack of morals but not enough to hurt innocents or children as he wants to protect them instead of hurt them. Does this make sense? If it doesn't then let me know and I'll try to explain better. 

Also this is just a little side note but there will be sex scenes and will be multiple women as each MC might bring back a women they love. So technically this will be a harem but not the snobby stupid shit you see a lot. MC will only be with people he loves and would die for and only after he's makes them sign a soul contract.(Will be one of his first abilities he asks for before being split. Will be explained later but don't worry it isn't slavery or anything like that. It's actually a beneficial and good thing so be patient.) 

I know a lot of people hate harem stories and I'm also one of them as well. But I want my story to have a good harem. Cause when done right it can be great. Also I know you might be wondering about stamina and all that but once you reach the godhood level you basically have no limit on stamina. Can fight or other things(*wink wink*) for months.

[SUPER IMPORTANT]
Finally I have a question for everyone. Do you prefer 3rd person or 1st person writing?
1st person Example: "I went to the store."
3rd person Example: "Alex went to the store."
Honestly I can write either way but I'm struggling to choose on which one.

Anyways that's all I think. If I remember anything more then I'll just update this with new information. If you have any questions whatsoever please ask in the comments on this chapter. 

Thanks for being patient with me and for reading my story. It might be a little rough but I hope you enjoy it.

Our MC who is a normal everyday guy gets a new chance at life. Follow his journey to see how he grows into the strongest being in the multiverse. 


* I do not own any characters or anything at all from my novel. This story is purely my own fan-fiction and all the characters and worlds and everything else belong to their own proper companies and people. Also if the owner wants credit for the cover of my book please let me know because I only found it on google without a name. (Please don’t sue me)*

So I decided to take the story a bit more seriously and used my time to create a plan for this book. Well, do you know what happened next? I accidentally deleted it, and I now have no way of getting it back. Trust me, I checked thoroughly. I don't really want to create another one so either I can go from the top of my head and keep winging it or I drop this story. This story is a mess with me, forgetting a whole ton of things. If you guys decide it would be better for me to drop this story, then I will create another plan for what I might have done just to give you guys some satisfaction and then officialy announce me dropping this story. I hate it when authors just disappear or say that their story is on hiatus but never come back. (Thinking of you "The Supreme God System")

Also, I want to make a Gintama fanfic on fanfic. Net and am looking for ideas. I got inspired to do this after reading Dawn of a New Life by alter yi. Amazing book would 100% recommend it, but I am not sure when the author will update again.

Anyway, I am only going to make this Gintama fanfic after I either dropped this book or I finished it. If I continue this book, the updates will be slow maybe a chapter a week. Not because of any bullcrap reason the authors keep giving like my internet stopped working or I lost my laptop but because I am very lazy and the excitement from writing a new and original story is gone. I kind of just lost my drive and determination to write this but I will keep going if you guys want that. I don't mind either way.

So a quick pole:

Option A: I drop this fanfic write out what I would have done with it so you guys can have some satisfaction of how it will end and then create a Gintama fanfic I don't know when.

Option B: I will continue this story with less determination and post once a week until either I am completely fed up and unwilling to keep writing this story, or I finish it.

Please tell me which option you choose in the comments and thank you so much for your support on my book so far. I know I am not the best - nor am I a very good - writer, but I tried to make it enjoyable for you guys. But right now I am going to be selfish and say that this story is no longer enjoyable for me and I would rather drop it. But once again it's up to you guys.

Have a great day/night!

(I take inspiration from a fanfic called The Spider. I might copy some of the ideas and element's used there)

Crazy man with a unique case of multiple personality disorder desires a new life. Having prepared and rigged the Truck Kun system, he tries to reincarnate because one of his personalities was convinced he would.

Reincarnating but not in the way he thought he would he decides to make the most of his new life.
