Chapter 88: Announcement
Thank you reader Orloss for your paragraph comment as it made me clear up my mind on what I was going to do with this.
The Hiatus of the Blue Silver Grass series has ended. My two published works are finally out.
I will be opening a new koffi page and name suggestions are appreciated.
I am accepting donations and all.
I was not going to explain or to include my personal life on this but I do need to do some explanation.
I went to prison at the end of last year. Not willingly.
No, I did nothing wrong and I have proved my innocence on the March of this year. As for the details of the case, it was theft and attempted sexual assault.
Once again, I have proven my innocence and I had done nothing. One of the key reasons on how I was able to do that was I am a Virgin and I have severe allergy to alcohol.
I haven't even kissed anyone and the last time I held hands was with my niece when I was helping her cross the road 7 years ago.
Life after prison wasn't good. My savings, which weren't much to begin with, were spent hustle of the court, lawyer and in between.
I didn't earn a penny for the time I was in there and once I was released, it remained the same.
Basically I was where I once was at the march of 2021, completely broke, without a place stay and with my relatives actively avoiding me.
During the April, I tried finding jobs, I failed and continued to fail and each time I did, I had to borrow money or sell whatever I had at home.
Sustenance was hard.
May come and I couldn't take it anymore and moved to a rural town with just a phone and the clothes that I had.
In there, I started to work at a general store in the day and as a crematorium guard at night.
I felt a bit at ease in the village town.
In all this, I have never stopped writing. I love to write. I love it a lot. My writings are one the few reasons why I had decided to continue on.
As things settled down and I decided to reach out to you all, announcing the update of the book.
But each time, every single time that I have a bit of happiness in my life, God doesn't seem to like it. Although I am wrong on blaming it for this all.
During the month of June, heavy rainfalls occurred. Extremely heavy rains. The roads swept away, so did trees, cattle, humans and a lot more.
And it continued in tandem, stopping for a day or two and then it was water till my waist and such.
By the end of June, it ended for a short while though. I made an announcement again.
Just the next day though, the cell tower, after enduring the one month of heavy floods, broke down.
(It has still not be repaired yet but they did something so network is possible. I am not in the village though.)
After being secluded by the mobile network as well and spending the next few two weeks without any electricity as well, I made my mind to finish this series.
This is the thought that had came to me in solitude. I walked to other towns that weren't flooded, charged my phone, got some updates and spent my day-time in there.
Both of my job location were under the water, literally.
I started posting again and then not even a full week of posting and I was nabbed by the police as a suspect all because she couldn't take the aftermath of all this and had decided to leave behind everything and left for Gujarat while telling no one and as a new person which in turn had lead her parents to file a complaint after they couldn't find her and then the respected and mighty police force came for me a week later because we have bad history and I could have murdered her and went to escape in the Village.
Three days ago, she was found in Gujarat and she was living her life trying to forget what she had done. Her statement.
I want to murder her now. I want to murder her parents even more.
But I know that that will just ruin my life and that's why I want to leave this country. Before April of the next year.
I need 20k dollars for that.
It's a fool's dream. Let's end the debate on whether I can earn it or not here.
I decided to start uploading on my YouTube channel. Despite being inactive on my side for nearly the past 1 and hald year, it still has 23k subs but it was a shorts channel and regarding where I am, that's not a lot of subs and so was the income that I generally gained from it. It was like 200 to 300 dollars a month but then I got a strike and then a 90 day demonetise for using some content of the T-Series (it was a song) and then I stopped.
No, I am not promoting my channel. I will not include this much of my personal life in this.
I have also shifted from the village. Well, I did that around 20 days ago. Not like I had any choice. It's a village and everyone now knows that I was taken by the police on the prospect that I have murdered and fled to the village.
Then rumours spread and well, I tried to put in nicely in my writing. I will update that tomorrow.
Where am I now?
Oh, I am at the town beside the city where it all happened.
For the past three days, I was thinking of ways to earn 20k. I can't think of a single way except focusing my all into what I have and making my YouTube channel big enough that it could earn me 20k dollars by March.
I planned to stop writing until then.
This book was on hiatus due to the publications anyway and I can, well, I thought I would restart from then. Of course, I thought that.
So Today, I had logged into the Webnovel and was going to hide all the stories from my Author bio but I saw a paragraph comment and This is the vague reply that I was going to say to you.
I am sorry... Things have been tough this year... I will try to have a continuous update schedule after the hiatus.
Well I was.
I thought a bit more and then deleted it and left the app. One thing really bothered me.
Your words were right about me but you are wrong on Fan Lin. Half wrong. Well done getting the other half right.
The name Fan Lin was to be taken as both an ironic interpretation and the actual meaning, as was the same with all the code and title names of the Gen 1 and yes, I had done this on purpose just to mess with the understanding of you all.
You will not understand this yet. Once again.
To be fair, today was the first day that I had laughed in a long while that finally, I had caught someone to get this interpretation of Fan Lin.
Even if others had done so, they didn't reply so you are the first. That's all that matters to me.
I love writing. And I do love getting feedback and being riled up and over on the things that you all sometimes say.
Over the past years and as I gradually slowed the updates, thus getting little to no feedback even when I asked, I did feel like there wasn't much to, well, updating more but True Mountain King always was always here so whenever I got time or thought that I now can, I updated or announced that I will update.
You what what happens next. You have lived through it.
Generally though, I swear now. I didn't. I didn't swear at all a year ago. Now I do.
I also got to know a lot of stories from the prison mates when I was there and I had incorporated them in a lot of my stories.
And I am updating things again.
But I will be focusing on YouTube, so the updates will be slower.
Also, between the rest of the Gen 1 or the What ifs of the Blue Silver Grass -OR, which one would you like to have after it ends?
You have a lot time to answer.
Also what should I choose as my Koffi name. You can give suggestions.
Personally, I was thinking of Riolu's Trainer or Forest One but I won't mind having a bigger roster to choose from.
Also, I am halfway on Gen 3, and a good portion of the scattered verse. You won't understand any of this yet.
I will see you tomorrow then.
Also, I won't be naming my two contracted works or the ID they are going by. Do not ask me that.
Bye.
