Question 1

I thought it would be interesting to ask questions that I would love to be answered by my readers, so here I go with my first set. I will also give my responses. Fair right?

Rebirth:

1. Who is your favourite character so far and why?

So I tried answering this question, but I realized that if I revealed my two favourite characters, I might reveal some spoilers. I will definitely answer this question completely once I feel that my answer will be spoiler-free. I'll just say for now that they are Kuro and Cael. (I could not decide between these two!!)

TFDL:

1. Since it is nearing the end of book one, I would like to know what your favourite chapter or scene was and why?

I would say that Chapter 18: The Leader and the Queen of Spontaneity Prepare for Their Exam was my favourite one. This chapter shows that Jihyun and Yunho have finally set aside their differences and are trying to know each other's personalities. I always thought it would be interesting if people first learned about each other by asking questions to each other. It seems more efficient in some sense unless people think they know themselves but they actually don't. That happens quite frequently, believe it or not. I found that some people either like to say that they have certain traits or believe that they do. However, I then discovered that they weren't demonstrating what they claimed. 

This chapter also reveals Jihyun's weaker side. I am sure that you have noticed that Jihyun likes to pretend that everything is okay and is the sort to hide her emotions, so it is rather rare for her to show her vulnerability. Even she finds it odd for her to be accepting Yunho's hug. 

Yunho although ignorant or dense, still feels that he should comfort her. Even though he has claimed that he would be willing to give this relationship a try, he never actually accepted this idea until this chapter. He is finally able to open up to her as well.

Moreover, I always felt hugs were supposed to be more sentimental and I wanted to show that even a simple gesture could ease someone's insecurities. Of course, this gesture would have to be from the right person and well, would have to be natural.

I hope to read your replies,

Jubie (cubierock11)

Status Update 1 and The Reponse to my Rhetorial Question

Hello! It is a freezing, November December day, but I thought I would bring some warmth, as cheesy as it sounds, to counter the coldness by sharing my update progress.

*Update: I have decided to add my stories here, chapter by chapter for each story while people wait for the latest updates. I might also include some commentary below each chapter, which could range from my inspiration or any thoughts that I had during my writing process. 

Rebirth

1. Fictionpress: Chapter 41 should be up on December 1st. Why not welcome the new month huh? The portrait of Renelle and Ghislaine will be released on December 3rd on this blog.
2. Soompi: Chapter 39 should be up on December 1 or 2nd.
3. Booksie: Chapter 19 (technically 18) should be up on December 2nd. *I might have a mass release like per chapter uploads once I have my Christmas break. 

The Five Different Lovers (TFDL)

1. Soompi: Chapter 80.4 should be released on December 1st. I feel generous for some reason.
2. Asianfanfics: Chapter 80.3 should be up on December 1st. I might release 80.4 a day after, depending on my mood.
3. Fanfiction: Uploads are on hold. I am not determined enough to upload so many chapters.

I might consider posting my works here too. Some people may not like the format of forums or the idea of having to create other accounts. So, I guess posting my stories here would be for Gmail users or miscellaneous stumblers.

I will also release the link to the PDF file for part one of TFDL on this blog once I finish writing and editing.

Now, to answer my own question, why did I create so many accounts?

I wanted to try different websites to see what everything was like. Then, I thought it suddenly occurred to me that it would be interesting to connect other readers from other websites to form a sort of literary discussion. Plus, sometimes, I receive similar comments or questions and it would be easier if everyone could see my responses here.

Happy early holidays,

Jubie (cubierock11)

PS. You can make any sort of suggestions or ask anything. I won't be harsh unless you are rude or disrespectful. A friendly warning? I think so. A friendly invitation? I think so too.

Reason of Existence

Hi!

This is cubierock11 from soompi, fictionpress, fanfiction.net, booksie, and asianfanfics.com. I have decided to make a blog where I can freely talk about my stories, answer any questions you may have about them, ramble about my thoughts, conduct polls, and most importantly, reveal my update status or some previews.

Here are a set of links to my works:

The Five Different Lovers: http://www.soompi.com/forums/topic/339685-the-five-different-lovers/ (updated more frequently compared to the other accounts)

So, why do I have so many accounts as if I am in multiple relationships at the same time? I will answer my rhetorical question in a blog post one day.

I thank you for reading what I have written and for supporting me,

cubierock11 aka Jubie
