New Life : A Second Chance-Chapter 48 - *Author’s Note*

Hi my lovely readers,

First, I just wanted to thank everyone who is reading this novel, for your support. f𝚛e𝗲𝔀e𝚋𝑛o𝘃𝒆𝗹.c𝗼𝒎

When I first started this, it was partly due to the Webnovel's Writing Prompt #51, and partly due to the dreams of writing that I always had but was too scared to actually do it. [Didn't win the writing prompt or even get a mention even though there as no winner for #3-#5 place. Felt rather depressed about it. sigh]

Anyway, I was like a little kid, always checking (every day) the votes and number of people who added this novel into their library. Each time it went up, I was ecstatic. You cannot imagine how it feels when your writing is validated.

Actually, I was first surprised that there WERE people who added this novel - amazes me how you even find it among the thousands of novels out there! So the 'adding' part was great .. and when there were actual voting, it was surreal. (′???‵)

The first few votes were from my RL friends - and shamelessly, myself - to boost me up. The moment there were others who voted, my RL friends stopped. Not because they didn't support me, but knew I was quite content with the current ones already. They're the ones who have to listen to me gushing and getting all excited, too.

For those who have been with me from Day 1 (that is, when I first started the novel) and for those who just found this novel, I thank you once again.

There are silent supporters that do not comment much (or at all) but continues to vote.

Then, there are those who comment regularly and vote.

All give me immense pleasure and happiness - so much so, that I had one chapter written as a tribute to the top five. Everyone needs a muse, and motivation to write. If no one likes your novel, then it saps you and makes you question yourself.

So, I truly do appreciate all your comments and feedbacks. One of my greatest fear was boring my readers to death, hence I tended to skip through some of the developments in their lives. Truth be told, I'm more of a romance / supernatural kind of person, and was thinking readers would be more interested in the romantic relationship and revenge part more. So, I skipped their baby years and primary school life.

After the feedback by Dis77 and KIIIDhere [Now known as KIIID] in the previous chapter, (and DWarden45 few chapters before this) however, I realised that perhaps there are readers who do not mind it. In fact, would even like it, or have a longer novel. Initially, this was meant to be rather short. Maybe less than 80 chapters? Now, however, I have changed my mind, Thank you, DWarden45, Dis77 and KIIID. I really appreciate your thoughts and feedback.

Thus, I will drop the time skip and focus more on the 'slice of life' aspect. The pace will be MUCH slower after this as I develop their lives and such.

This novel will generally be a mix of romance and revenge. The focus will initially be on the development of Elite Five's love lives (or lack of it). Of course, there will always be some mention of Kyle's kids and all, but essentially, the main aspect would be the relationships. The 'Relationship Arc' is going to be there until the end and may be such a huge part that this novel can be thought of as 'romance' instead.

'Action' scenes are also scattered around.

Then, as they grow older, the revenge arc comes and gets mixed in.

Basic outline has been moved to Auxillary Chapter. It will be updated periodically after each volume is completed.

Thank you once again for your feedback, patience and for reading this novel. Love to all.

yeah, KIIID also influenced me with all the emoticons. (??^???^??)
