Not to brag, but damn this story has been better received that I'd ever have hoped for it to be.

ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE - I have a question for my female public concerning a little something I did in my earliest chapters.

It has to do with the story's most recent review, that is thejoker195's attempt to induce blood-rage into my being. Now, just to be clear, I'm not turning this into a witch-hunt.

I am not asking you all to go down-vote the shit out of him. No, I'm asking you to sit down and tell me how come you ladies kept on reading my story even after its rather blank outlook on rape. Yes, it was in game. Yes, it was done in the most harmless, most passive way plausible to both parties involved.

But, since I have no real excuse of my own as to why I even put it there in the first place, I'd like to ask for your opinions.

Note that while I'm mainly asking this of my female public because well I figure they might get more easily offended by these things, anyone who has an opinion please share it with me!

Some of you might be asking why I'm even asking this? It is, after all, just a part of the story which happened so long ago, anyone who is here now does not give a shit about it happening... but, well, I give a shit about it.

I am the story's author and I can say with certainty that EUPHORIA is not going to be my last story ever. Re-reading it from the start, there are a lot of things I could've done without. The rape is surprisingly not one of them since it was used to settle the fact that my MC is an evil bastard with some charitable-tendencies every now and then.

In short; I wish to improve myself and, like I've stated in my "Madman: Of Gods And Men" message to all authors and readers alike, I need your opinions and wisdom in order to accomplish this goal.

As for people worried about my temporary bedridden state, there is no need to worry anymore.

I've had my final check-up today, nothing is wrong and the pain is all gone.

Also, when I said that I was batted by a thug... well, not really a thug, more like a really old man who may or may not have been as drunk off his ass as I was at the time.

Gregarious Voices it is, although I have spent some time conversing with some of the more talkative of my critics, so I will do my best to find a decent balance.

Even if people seem to enjoy the sheer insanity of dual/triple conversations!

And I will admit to the fact that they are fun to type down.

Also difficult, but hey that's just a part of being an author.

Anyways, that's all I had to say here for now! Don't worry, the real chapter is being written as you are reading it. If it isn't up tonight (unlikely) it will be up tomorrow nighttime, worst case scenario.
