Inkitt replied that they are unable to get back my lost chapters.... Which are like 4-5 chapters... Aren't I so lucky. I'll accept this. It's okay.
I'll just submit the leftovers altogether and change it's story status to COMPLETED for the sake of my inner peace....( Inner peace.... Inner peace...Dinner please... Dinner with peas 😅 Kung Fu Panda 4 reference..lol)

Inkitt becomes worse after every "updates". Why must they do that? I lost my drafted chapters and had sent email of my confusion and concern and there's no reply. What must I make of this bad service?
Absolutely ridiculous.
What's even more ridiculous is that I have successfully wasted 3 months of vacation and have a week before I move out of our house to the college hostel, which is situated in the middle of nowhere and a forest. Well.
I graduated from highschool on May 13 or something (I don't remember) so yeah. And my favourite book on Inkitt has come to an end. An auspicious sign for a new beginning.
Also, I don't know when or If I'd ever complete these books. Hopefully before I am 60 and retired.
Ok. That's all there's to say.

⚠️ WARNING: Long Post Ahead. ⚠️
🛐 Please don't think I'm being an ungrateful brat 🏳️
But CONFESSION:
I recieved a few comments earlier saying that they're tired of waiting for my updates because I update so rarely, randomly. I take gaps for updates. A month or two.
If I'm talking frommy writer point of view: it's not because I don't want to, it's because I CANNOT. I physically can't. Mentally, I can't.
It gives me pain to say things like this on the internet but I'm so emotionally unavailable. I'm mentally DETACHED from everything. I can't focus, I'm daydreaming and I'm so last in my class. I've reached the endpoint of my highschool life (I'm sorry to whoever that thought I'm an adult) And also, there's no time for me to write; this crazy writer's block is killing me.
Talking from my reader point of view: Yes, writers taking long gaps SUCKS! But if you are true enough, loyal enough, you can wait for no matter how long. I found out I'm loyal asf. I might even be able to wait a decade for my long lost lover (like they show in movies) because I'm ever so PATIENT for things I truly value. I always talk about my favourite book on Inkitt, The Blackmail Bride. The author updates only at the end of the month. But before this year, she disappeared for an entire 2 YEARS yet, I stayed.
Probably it's my own fault that people are not reading. Or..
A) you have no patience whatsoever
B) you are not loyal enough to the book or the author.
C) my writing sucks but you are so into seeing how the story ends. (which would probably suck too)
My point is, Please be considerate. The writer is a human too. They have a lot of loud noises in their heads... Possibly their own characters, screaming and begging to let them out.
And just stop with the 'Im giving up on this book', 'im so done, how long can I wait?'
And then I wrote a chapter. In ONE NIGHT. Okay? Do they understand how hard that is? This is not even my phone.
Come to the best part,
They don't even leave a little comment or a chapter reaction or anything! How would I know that they've read it then? I'm not earning money with this. I only earn some happiness and that's it. And they DARE take it away from me?
Is writing a review, or a comment that HARD?
Appreciating people for little things is a good habit. Criticising art and literature is good too because that's a FEEDBACK. You are helping the artist understand and see things from different points of view. You are HELPING them GROW.
Won't you be able to do that?

Since I'm republishing it, I thought I'd start fresh. I'm making some not-so-subtle changes in them so you are welcome to reread this book, in case you haven't read already.
🚨 [Book #1 in The Knight Of His Heart trilogy] 🚨
THE SEPARATED
Synopsis:
What would you do if your family disown you one day? And leaves you with nothing encompassing your wealth. What if you were obliged into marrying someone you never knew plus when you despise them and they hate back your existence?
You fight or you hide.
And guess what they did. Trying to unravel the dilemma behind their past, before something terrible happens to your cognitive state. You can't chastise them for what they did but their family and surroundings.
They fed them lies to bed, instead of bedtime stories.
Little did they know that all of this couldn't make them give up on what they were trying to find. But make them more substantial and determined.
Join them in this amazing quest of their hell of a rollercoaster-ride life.

YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BELIEVE THIS!
My book Emma's first book in the trilogy, The Separated has been saved after 2 years and she's coming back!
Magnus Holmes of Inkitt, you are amazing. Thank you for being good at your job.
That book was written when I was 14, years have passed; my writing style has leveled up so please don't make fun of my children. I wanted to get it back so I refer them to make my new drafts so they'll stay. You don't abandon your child, do you?

*4 MONTHS LATER*
Sweet Summer is updated with Chapter 41: Once upon a time
Writer's block... Wow. It's. Painful.
It's Onam vacation now. And I'm sick. Anybody knows how to unclog my sinuses? Cause I feel like there's centuries worth phlegm inside there.
Also, how are guys doing? I miss being active in Inkitt.
Anyways, Happy Reading.
