Have you ever had a feeling inside of you that wasn't all totally human? Have you had unexplainable urges that felt really animalistic? Do you feel as if there's an animal living inside of you? If so, you might just be a therian! In this guide I'll show you what it's like to be a therian. I'll show you what a therian is, how to express yourself, and why being a therian can be challenging and difficult. I will also explain ways to express yourself in a way that is in plain sight and people won't question you. Sound like something you need? Then read more to find out!

I created this space so we can stay close. I intend to keep you informed about chapter releases, small delays, upcoming stories, and everything unfolding quietly behind the scenes. It's where I'll speak to you directly so you never have to wonder or miss anything. I also owe you honesty. Sometimes my updates take longer than planned. As I do work on my own, and scheduling hasn't always been easy. I encountered many unforeseen circumstances, which required me to adapt, be very patient, and undertake a significant reorganization. I sincerely apologize for any delays and frustrations this may have caused. You never deserve to feel forgotten. What I can promise is this: every delay is never a lack of care. I'm constantly working, refining, and pushing myself to give you the best version of each story, because I know how much your time and trust matter. I invite you to follow this page, so you always know what's coming next, what's delayed, and what's quietly being prepared for you. No guessing. No distance. Thank you for your patience. Thank you for staying. I'll keep doing my best so the waiting never feels empty. Yours SAIIKO

To keep myself from losing track of: all the 2026 contests I've entered, all the 2026 contests I've volunteered myself as a judge (or let myself be volun-told into judging), all the 2026 books I've had to read as a contestant or as a judge, all the 2026 deadlines, and all the other important stuff, here is a book that registers all these 2026 things in a somewhat organized fashion. With occasional commentary. For the record, I am not Lady Whistledown, and I do not have all the gossip of the ton. Nota bene: Although other people are welcome to browse my public contest logs and look for contests, look for information about details of contests (i.e. you want me to pour you some tea), etc, these contest logs are primarily for my own use. I enter so many contests that I can't keep track of them without a log. I forget important details, too, including things like "Note to self: You do not get along with this contest host, best not participate in their contests." Like my 2024 and 2025 contest logs, this journal was never meant to be an "expose" book. I'm not exposing anybody. Contests are matters of public record, as are any comments made in the contest books. I'm just a ditz who needs a written log to keep track of everything. I would lose my head if it hadn't been attached to my shoulders. I DO NOT CONSENT TO MY POETRY AND PROSE BEING USED TO TRAIN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

Is Wattpad a good or bad thing? Are the people on here writers or do they just think they are?
