When Augustus approached his friends, they all immediately averted their gazes. There was nothing they could do—this was just the way things were with him. Augustus wasn't someone who could be changed; there was something unsettling about him, or so everyone believed. In their minds, that was simply the truth.
The only reason he was tolerated at all was his exceptional talent with amnis. But when he saw the way his friends looked at him, or rather, refused to look at him, his irritation grew, and he left the area in search of fresh air.
After consistently writing 1,500 words per day, I've realized that I can't maintain that pace when I have other activities to attend to. To write consistently at this level, I’d need to become a full-time writer.
However, it's not feasible to go full-time if I'm only doing this out of passion (my income from the novel isn't nearly enough to support my bill). So, I'm considering other ways to keep writing.
I know you do realize that I am not even drawing the illustration anymore because I don't have enough time to drawing for my novel, however if I (really) become the full time writer, I believe I can do both, and I really hope so.
I apologize for sharing this with you, but I want you to know that I’m committed to finishing this series. I’m sorry if there are occasional delays, but please know I have every intention of seeing it through to the end.
Thank you for your support!
