Chapter Text
My beloved readers,
Firstly, I want to thank all of you from the depths of my heart for all of your comments, support, and enthusiasm throughout IRBM. This was a wonderful journey and I'm so glad all of you came on it with me. You all are awesome and I honestly contribute my ability to finish this tale to all of you. So, again, thank you so much.
Secondly, around chapter 20, I mentioned that I was feeling a burnout coming. Unfortunately, it wasn't just a burnout. I have multiple physical health issues that I struggle with, and over the course of writing IRBM, all of them reared their ugly heads at once.
After barely making it to the end of IRBM, I decided to take a well deserved break. When I finally felt well enough to pick up my pen again... There was no inspiration. No words. Nothing. I even consulted the outlines I had made on what I wanted to do in a sequel, and still nothing came. After multiple tries, I decided to take an honest look at IRBM and came to the conclusion that I had told the tale I wanted to tell and that there was very little I wanted to add to it.
In other words: there will be no sequel.
I'm really sorry. This disappointed me deeply when I came to this conclusion, but I cannot force myself to write, especially if it will come out as something I myself wouldn't read.
I truly appreciate all of your support while I wrote IRBM, and I hope you will understand that I didn't come to this conclusion lightly. There are a few things that maybe I will write in the future, but I honestly cannot make any promises.
Sincerely,
Rachel
❤️
