F&L Chapter 41 up in FP & Soompi

41 in Fictionpress

41 in Soompi


I kinda had a hard time making this chapter for a reason I do not know. Maybe it's because I'm too tired of playing NBA in the PS2 - hahaha...

It was a rather short chap (6 pages in MS Word). And voila! Another set of unanswered questions! (Sorry readers, am I literally cracking your head already or what?).

A big surprise in the end, huh?

Aya's big come back is drawing near ^_^. Man, I'm enjoying writing this fic a lot now. The fact that it's approaching its climax and as I start revealing the keys to the secrets never fails to give me that excitement.

I'm very happy to have some new people reading my fic (mostly from Soompi forums). Man, the people there are very very generous! Once I get the time, I plan to return the favor to them at least by reviewing their stories to, even though I'm not really acquainted with Korean terminologies, celebrities, and culture.

And some people were asking about silent readers - Well, as far as I am concerned, I do not have anything against silent readers. I treasure them just as I treasure those who leave reviews. It just amuses me that in Fictionpress for example, my fic has A LOT of hits (I mean, a lot) but the reviews do not seem to match up with that. Though I must admit that I feel quite sad that I had a drastic decrease in reviews as far as FP.com is concerned, the overwhelming feedback in Soompi compensated for that. For Soompi, I would sometimes spot silent readers too (both anonymous and signed). They would drop by the fic whenever a new chapter is up. Well, to you guys, Thanks a lot for reading my fic. The mere fact that you take time to stop and drop by even you don't leave a note is a big thing for me.

Some, however, drops review via e-mail (perhaps they're shy to post up in the forums or FP?). And really, I really appreciate those little notes of appreciation. Motivates me to do better for every chapter. ^_^

Yeah, I welcome silent readers to my fic... but what I do NOT tolerate is plagiarism (heck, who doesn't anyway?!). So to readers, can I ask for a favor? When you see my work someplace else being owned by some old geezer from God-knows-where, can you please tell me about it and send me the link... and also help me BASH them? Thanks! Thanks! Thanks!
