Sad connotation, right? Well, it's probably true because while we are slave to his mellifluous brilliance, the tragedy lies in that we will only be able to enjoy and not replicate his writing prowess. Sad, but true, isn't it? I hope I'm not presumptuously speaking for myself here in that no one can surpass or even come close to his writing. I've peeked at SHOCH too, and it was brilliant.

Cult is such a strong word, although I can see what you mean. 'Reverence' is the wrong word, isn't it? I've read Auratus' spotlight interview and people seem to love him and his work, yet refrain from commenting. Odd. Cult, whether intentionally or not, triggers the blunder of 'Snuggies'. Random thought. I would liken the reading addiction to that of marionettes.

Oh snap. Your admittedly stalker-esque comment was subjected to brutal mutilation that is the 400 character limit, cutting off. And yes - I'm scared of becoming hooked. If I were to read another chapter, I would be irrevocably sucked in, and doomed to fail at life because I have so much work to do and cram. Oh, the odd thing that is cramming. Ironically, it always strikes at deadlines.

(I really don't get why my comments keep getting cut off.)
Continuation: Good luck and welcome to the "cult" LOL

Thus, the readership and commentary is put off because he has the reputation of something like a literary demigod. This reverence that you mentioned? It's probably more of a detriment to the support Auratus deserves. Track the comments and commentary, you'll see what I mean.
Anyways, my point is-- if you like it, keep commenting. It inspires him even more.
Good luck ( & we...

(not sure why my comment died but okay...)
Auratus's writing is basically the most addictive writing style that I've ever encountered, and that's saying something coming from a bookworm like me. His humor is refreshingly original, his plotlines dynamic, and his concepts thoroughly thought invoking. His only flaw is tragically, ironically, his works are too intimidatingly good.

Hi.
This is completely random and stalker-esque, but I was looking at HoM as I usually do whenever there's a comment (It's an instinct for me to check if there's an update) and I read your comment. Your fear of getting hooked? Very real. There's nothing like it, even in physically published books. I'm not much a a writer (I'm more of a reader), but I know that Aurat...

Haha if you want me to look over it I can... Although, what type of essay is it? Rhetorical analysis or argument?
Umm I'm going over the Wikispace that my bio teachers made where they cover main topics from each unit and I'm reviewing over the Cell Division, Cell Respiration, Photosynthesis, Plants, Cell Organelles, and Functional Groups since those are my weaknesses for bio

Lol I'm sure you can't be meaner than my Eng teacher. Probably one person have gotten an 8 in any of his essay this year :/ But, blah, I'm trying hard to cram right now. Any tips? Since I'm assuming you're probably doing the same thing lol

LOL You don't want me to grade your English essay; I'm mean when it comes to those. And besides, English is SOOOOOOOOOOOO subjective to your what your teacher likes in writing

LOL. I see. Well, the English language DOES assume He/Him/His over She/Her/Hers, so I guess the icon would naturally fall towards male ;P? I'll do my best to make it easy~ And don't worry about the AP exams too much. There's generous curves and as long as you review you should be fine! YoonYul is too perfect for guys to handle?It's actually more like it's harder for them to see Yoona masculine-ish
