Paragon Of Sin-Novel

Chapter 238 - Temporary Hiatus: Sick (8/21/20)

I made this an auxiloary chapter, but there’s no announcements for auxiliary chapters it seems. I don’t want the majority to be in the dark, but I also don’t want to waste your coins for announcements. Unfortunately, I don’t have any proper announcement giving tool for this, so here it is:

This sucks. It really, really sucks. But it seems, for those who know, my refreshed feeling was temporary and a looming premonition to an upcoming calamity...in my body.

Anyways, I’ve gotten sick. Is it the COVID-19 or not? I’m unsure. I’ll keep you guys updated, but without going into too much yucky detail: fever and consistent bathroom visits. It’s really screwing with my ability to write, think, sleep, and generally function so I’m going to take a short break from writing and uploading until I’m well, healthy, and safe.

I likely won’t be writing for however long this lasts, and I hope its short and just the rare august flu, so there won’t be any make-up chapters or anything. Just a regular and thorough break.

No need to feel panic though, I have an unusually strong body and mind so I’ll ride this out. <3

Wish me the best!

(Btw: Word Count requirements can go straight to...)

Here’s some famous literary book quotes because of Word Count...You can skip this if you want.

"Just remember that the things you put into your head are there forever, he said. You might want to think about that.

You forget some things, dont you?

Yes. You forget what you want to remember and you remember what you want to forget." – Cormac McCarthy, The Road

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." – Frank Herbert, Dune

"Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It’s hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It’s round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you’ve got a hundred years here. There’s only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you’ve got to be kind." – Kurt Vonnegut, God Bless You, Mr. Rosewater

"...I think we are well-advised to keep on nodding terms with the people we used to be, whether we find them attractive company or not. Otherwise they turn up unannounced and surprise us, come hammering on the mind’s door at 4 a.m. of a bad night and demand to know who deserted them, who betrayed them, who is going to make amends. We forget all too soon the things we thought we could never forget. We forget the loves and the betrayals alike, forget what we whispered and what we screamed, forget who we were." ― Joan Didion, Slouching Towards Bethlehem

"The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or touched, they are felt with the heart." – Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

"We believe that we can change the things around us in accordance with our desires—we believe it because otherwise we can see no favourable outcome. We do not think of the outcome which generally comes to pass and is also favourable: we do not succeed in changing things in accordance with our desires, but gradually our desires change. The situation that we hoped to change because it was intolerable becomes unimportant to us. We have failed to surmount the obstacle, as we were absolutely determined to do, but life has taken us round it, led us beyond it, and then if we turn round to gaze into the distance of the past, we can barely see it, so imperceptible has it become." – Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time

Needed a few more words, no need for another block of text. Will likely delete later.
