Hi,

I see that you are working a lot and frequently on lwqq, but I would recommend you to create a Organization for lwqq on github, and transfer the repository to there. All the issues and pull requests will be transferred together if you do in the way that is explained in this link:
https://help.github.com/articles/how-to-transfer-a-repository

After you have an organization, you can easily add someone to help you when you find someone with the right profile, usually people who are contributing with a lot of good pull requests are a good call. Your project is important and big. It's important to increase the Bus Factor too.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_factor

I also started a nice project years ago, AwesomeTTS, it had a Bus Factor of 1. Then last year I got many problems in life, and it got difficult to maintain it. Thankfully I found someone to help me, and now the Bus Factor is 2. :) But the project stayed for a long time mostly dead. So I recommend you to think about this things while you are active and in good health.

Best wishes :)
