Random Thoughts
I'm sorry, I've been silent and gone for over a year.
Last year was an unfortunate year. A significant number of the author's family members experienced health problems (including the author himself, his elderly parents, and his young daughter). They made numerous trips to the hospital, wasting a great deal of energy and time. Fortunately, everyone recovered in the end. Honestly, good health is more important than anything else.
So, I completely disappeared from QQ and Qidian.
Time really flies. I didn't even realize a year had passed (seriously, I thought I had only stopped writing for a few months). When I calculated the dates, I was really shocked.
When I logged back into Qidian, I figured the book was doomed. But to my surprise, my QQ group was still there! And there were even people in the book review section urging me to update!
The most ridiculous thing is that when I looked back at my previous comments in the review sections of other Harry Potter fanfiction works, there were actually quite a few readers there urging me to update. I really don't know what to say. (Sorry to the authors whose review sections were disturbed.)
Next, let's talk about the plans for the future (and the current progress):
The book did not enter the palace.
However, I had forgotten what I had written before, so I reread it twice from the first chapter (and I've finished it now). There were several foreshadowing elements... Actually, I had forgotten the answers (facepalm). I spent a lot of time and effort searching around before finally finding the answers in my old manuscripts (laughs~).
As I mentioned in my book launch statement, this book was written out of passion, and what you see is actually the fourth draft. So although I have a complete outline, that corresponds to my first draft, and much of the content in it is no longer applicable to this book. Therefore, continuing to write it is actually quite difficult.
So please give me a little more time!
While rereading the previous chapters, I also made some minor revisions, adding about 3000-4000 words, which is equivalent to one chapter. Readers who want to reread can do so, and those who don't can also do so without worrying about it; it won't affect the subsequent plot.
Then, I recently made time to watch the Fantastic Beasts 3 movie (I didn't have time to watch it last year at all), and I even went to read Rowling's script (scripts usually include details such as addresses and spells). I also updated and supplemented the "Related Works" section with world maps and Fantastic Beasts for readers who follow the established lore.
By the way, the Fantastic Beasts movie series has been confirmed to be canceled. The Spain episode of the fourth movie and the Italy episode of the fifth movie are not going to happen, so there won't be a GGAD battle. Let the fanfiction writers imagine the ending for themselves!
Finally, congratulations to Rice Cake and Odyssey (Light Ink Fragrance)!
Their novels, "Days of Building Friendship at Hogwarts" and "The Demon Hunter at Hogwarts," are finished! Among us struggling authors, only the two of you actually managed to complete them. I truly admire you, and I wish you continued success in your writing!
