And the day is number 4.

So...

Yeah...

Well, I suppose that some of you, my oh so dear readers...

Are now wondering to yourselves...

How is it that I'm celebrating yet another anniversary?

Also, why am I celebrating a Wattpadaversary?

After all, I did just celebrate the anniversary of The Chronicles Of Max Hunter on April 21st...

So...

What is the point of this one?

All good questions...

All very good questions...

That I will answer presently...

First off, the term Wattpadaversary should be fully self-explanatory, I would say...

And considering all that...

It is simply to commemorate the day I first posted on Wattpad...

Now...

That may not seem like such a big deal...

Especially considering the fact that I already had a whole first chapter anniversary...

However, what most people would not stop to think is, that posting a chapter, is a whole different world from writing one...

And of that, I suppose a short piece of lore on me as a person is necessary...

That being...

Who I was, the day before I posted the first chapter...

So, let me begin...

As you may all know, the days before I posted this book, I used to write fanfiction...

Well, to be more precise...

It was one fanfiction....

It was a long tale filled with ideal, romance, violence, pain, heart, love, philosophy and et cetera...

Well, it was supposed to be...

I never finished it...

Yeah, I got to about 100,000 words and then stopped...

And those 100,000 are probably enough to entertain most people...

But that remains besides the point...

The fact of the matter is is that I stopped...

And not because of writer's block, or rather fear, or confusion...

No...

In fact, I still have the whole thing with me and could continue at the drop of a hat...

No kidding...

It's a really good story, with themes of...

Anyway, moving back to the point...

I stopped...

And the why is a long series of confusing reasons I would love to get into, but would rather not for reasons I will not explain...

That being said, maybe one of these days I'll post it, and thereof leave people wondering where the plot was supposed to go...

Leaving them high and dry...

In such pain and torment...

Oh, how cruel such an act would be...

Indeed...

How cruel...

Even so, I decided to stop writing fanfiction...

Well, not exactly...

It is more like this...

I was writing fanfiction from, well...

That is another long story that I actually should tell people, but not today...

Let's just say I was writing fanfiction from unspecified time in my life A to April 2024, say...

I think the 17th most likely, or the 18th...

Yeah...

Around that time...

Most likely the 17th...

Even so, I thought it was great and I really liked what I'd done so far...

And so, well...

I was prepping myself to post it...

However...

Then and there...

Let's just say that I got a billion thoughts about the matter...

And if you wanna have a crack at guessing what, I'll tell ya...

My worries were not around my writing...

Nope...

It was a long list of other things... that I will also not choose to explain...

Even after that, I did eventually resolve to write the book that was in my heart all these years...

The Chronicles Of Max Hunter...

On, you guessed it, 21st April 2024...

Yeah...

A great day...

Memories...

However...

Around the time I'd written chapter 87, well...

Let's just say I'd began to have third thoughts...

Yeah...

That can happen...

Third thoughts...

Part of the reason being, that I just loved that plot so much...

The fanfiction in my head was just so amazing that my mind just refused to truly let it go...

In fact, I remember that day, just imagining writing the sequel in what may have ended up being a 5 or 6 book series...

I ain't kidding...

It truly is a great plot...

Really...

And then and there, well, I shared my thoughts with some people in my life...

And soon after, yeah...

I ended up deciding to go back to writing fanfiction...

Chapter after chapter...

It was going great...

And I was really enjoying myself...

Every chapter, slowly marching towards the very end game plot...

Yeah...

I was having the time of my life...

And then, bam!!!

Yet again...

Fourth thoughts...

Yep...

Fourth thoughts...

All because of a pretty weird realisation I had in the middle of writing it...

And that realisation, well...

It is yet another long story...

And so, oh, by the way, I was posting that fanfiction on Wattpad initially...

For about a month, I would say...

Anyway, after this mysterious realisation I refuse to elucidate upon...

I made up my mind...

Is what I would like to say...

But no...

I simply stopped posting new chapters on Wattpad, declared that I would be taking a break, and then stopped to think...

Yeah...

That was one heck of a time, I'm tellin' ya...

I didn't write either fanfiction or The Chronicles Of Max Hunter...

I just sat there...

Confused...

I talked to some people about this realisation, well one person...

And to be honest, I do not remember what she said that day, or if and how it may have affected that decision...

Well...

I suppose I could go on and look...

Well, she told me to follow my heart...

And apparently, I'd made up my mind to post a week after July 12th...

So, yeah...

Considering those extra days...

Yeah, I was obviously confused...

And thereof, I suppose you could say...

Well...

That I made my choice...

And by now that choice is pretty obvious

And as to why I made that choice, well...

I'll tell ya...

Tomorrow...
