Thanks to my readers for all the support so far. It's been a little under a month since I started writing 'Love Me Back' and it's already passed 15k views, which is just great.
Originally, I intended to update this story about once a week or so whenever I wanted a break from another project. However, because this story turned out to be a lot of fun and got a large support, I now want to treat it with a little more care. With this in mind, I've decided to go back and rewrite the earlier chapters to fix a few mistakes. This means that the continuation of the story is going to be on hiatus for awhile.
I'll be gradually deleting these chapters and replacing them with rewrites. There will be changes in the story to fix some consistency issues. Consider the current chapters as my rough draft for the first act.
Here are some improvements I intend to make with the rewrite:
- Greater emphasis on horror elements.
- Slower pace for the early stages of Levi and Eloise's relationship.
- More gradual decent to yandere-dom for Levi.
- Cut the Armel Faron character.
- Rework the Ebon Chain to make more sense.
- Better foreshadowing for supernatural elements.
Thanks again to everyone who has enjoyed the story and especially to those leaving comments and encouragement. Hopefully you'll like it even more after these changes.
Oh, and I'll commission a proper book cover at some point too.
Oh yes!!! Focused on obsession first, bro. Before she murdered people.
Sounds great! Will have to re-read the story again and see the changes myself, this story really got me hooked it's a diamond in the midst of all the... less than impressive stories on here. good luck!
What a damn cliff hanger. We won't know if Levi ever killed the fake doctor and I hate that.
However, I wish you all the best. Take your time because quality over quantity y'know. And even considering this as your rough draft I still enjoyed it and hopefully will continue to enjoy it.
It's difficult to find novels that are readable let alone interesting. All I really see on this website is the typical power-fantasy-isekai-harem-smut and multiversal-SI-Fanfic-with some sort of system- copy paste; and I'm happy this isn't that.
You have a very promising yandere horror novel, and, again I wish you all the best. Keep up the good work.
Dang!full support on your decision but why only after a cliff of a chapter
I know I made a comment on how the past few chapters were weird and I kinda feel a bit bad about but not really. This was a good grammared and decently written (at or above average, I am just critical) dark love type of novel and it went from 0-100 several times in 15 chapters. Each on of those events could be their own little 5-10 chapter story arc. It makes me a bit annoyed when a good premise or novel is stopped short from being as good as it could be.
Best of luck!
