Sorry if it's a disappointment but this is an update, not a new chapter.

I'm sure that sucks to see but I don't know what else to do. Chapter 16 should be out within a week but I have to level with you guys.

I feel like I'm forcing myself to write new chapters. Like it's an essay that my grade is depending on instead of a way to express some cool ideas that I had. Writing VD was really fun at one point but now I feel like it's something that I have to do. Like a chore.

I don't want to make it seem like you guys are pressuring me. I've just been holding myself to standards that I knew I couldn't meet. Forcing myself to write more consistently does not match my lazy personality at all and I should've seen that coming.

I am not going to stop writing. I've said it before but I'd sooner die than stop writing. But I think it's time to admit that I am a very weak person and stop trying to commit to tighter schedules. From here on, one new chapter every month at the bare minimum. I think that's the best way to keep me from slipping in quality or getting burnt out. I'm well aware that this is a terrible compromise that completely screws you guys over but I can't do any better.

In the meantime, I'm probably gonna expand my bio a bit. I'd like to explain a bit more about myself so I'm more than that author guy who's super lazy. If you have anything specific you'd like to know, feel free to PM questions.

If I'm honest, I really hope that I don't get a lot of messages or reviews telling me that "I should take all the time I need." I should be better than this but I'm just not. I hear so many people tell me how badly they want new chapters and it hurts to disappoint them and to disappoint you. But I just gotta. I'd be thankful if you stuck with me anyways.

See ya.
