IRL Update Number II

Hello, it is November.

Still having a struggle with family health. I even got sick last week and I am just recovering from it. Mother is hospitalized and will have surgery as soon as tomorrow depending on how well she is. I also occasionally babysit; father has been a bit sick himself.

Because of my wide concern on the situations, I wasn't able to focus on writing.

According to Traffic Stats for both Fanfiction.net and FictionPress.net, It looks like Howl of the Gray Wolf, and my two Seishin stories Passive Rivals and "The Follower of Mibuno" has received the most hits so far this month. The Seishin stories (except for Autumn Grove) has been getting the most visitors.

I should work on those when I have the time, but I still have my frustrations with my writing ability. Sometimes it takes me hours to type up a 300-500 word piece of content. While working on Mibuno, I found myself often staying in maybe the same one or two paragraphs and making changes.

"Follower of Mibuno" Info I

Out of boredom, I am laying down some information on currently uploaded Seishin stories.

Follower of Mibuno
壬生野の家臣 (mibuno no kashin)

In Yamato Province, Miyoshi Nagayasu, Iwanari_Tomomichi (miyoshi vassal) and Miyoshi masayasu works with Matsunaga Hisahide to attack and kill Ashikaga Yoshiteru at his Nijo Castle (二条城).
