SO MUCH TEXT, OMFG!
Yeah, this is gonna be fixed when we redo a lot of the first chapter, try and had a few pages to show more and tell less. That's suppose to be one of the strengths of the visual media isn't it?
To be fair, I should have been more on point about checking all this....
So, first of all, rip the band aid off. It was too good to be true. First off, I did a bunch of research into the company and basically the one common factor in 50% of the reviews was people calling them scammers and con-artists... so, THAT'S REASSURING. I don't wanna trust my novel, world and my...
2022-02-10 15:02:18 +0000 UTC View PostI just got the email today, a publisher wants my novel! I'm gonna be published!

So as stated, my novel is currently in beta. Recently, my room mate and his fellow college friends decided to give me critical feedback on my novel, which is amazing. However this also means that there is going to be editing of the story to help make it better. I spoke to Semo about it, and for t...
2022-02-06 19:36:48 +0000 UTC View PostApologies for posting this a day late, anxiety, work and life has been strangling me in different ways. (I love my job, don't worry, it's just it is a minimum 10hr shift, sometimes longer depending)
So I finally have a small group of college people pull me aside and do a whole break down o...
Now were starting to approach the point of the manga that needs some harder editing. This page is fine, but the next few pages, unless Semo updates them shortly, might be very, VERY wordy.
Keep in mind, I don't give him strict due dates, don't wanna put pressure on him.
So last week, I worked 7 days straight because a co-worker couldn't make it in, so I voluntered. Among other things I havn't been able to do a lot of writing.
That said I did have a strike of inspiration for the desert civilizations down to the south and how they function, also a future st...
So news flash: me and pup (pup = S/O) might.... miiiiight have covid... maybe... we are getting tested today. Fun times...

Another sunday manga day, woo!
Saw the polls, looks like it's Milly and Lilith this month~
Edit: I mislabeled the pages! Well, super glad I only updated the patreon and no other place, ha ha!... ha... aaahh.....
The further along I go, I keep blanking out on what page I'm on, heh.
I do wanna emphasize again that, this is where a number of pages are going to be a little rough around the edges. So when they get fixed, ill simply repost them as 'Page X revised' and keep the previous pages as a kind o...
So with the wrap up of the beta, I'm more or less waiting to hear back from a good amount of people. Especially a publisher I handed my novel in a few weeks ago. Call it a short break from constantly editing and editing the novel itself.
While technically start of the month was yesterday, ...
The first page of the new year. At this point again there is going to be a few inconsistencies. There was some minor wire crossing between here and the later pages. Hey, no one is perfect, but I also don't believe in hiding mistakes either. Some pages are being redone, either for grammar or other...
2022-01-02 18:01:33 +0000 UTC View PostAs of a year ago in early January, I finally began writing the novel that I had been planning for closer to a decade. Building it's world, defining it's characters, writing it's lore and history. There is still so much work to be done, that I may never claim that it is finished. Celosia, is my fo...
2022-01-01 02:54:11 +0000 UTC View PostWell, it's the end of the year and things for me have been getting very unfortunate. Car crash on Christmas day, thankfully no one hurt and my car only has a flat in terms of damage. Now before the year ends, I'm informed that my lady in love is unable to afford rent for January unless she gets a...

So first of all, Merry Christmas! I hope you all had a wonderful time with friends, families and loved ones. Surrounded by cheer, warmth and delicious, delicious hot cocoa.
Sadly for me, mine was spoiled. I was visiting my parents and eventually had to return home. It had been snowing pret...
In accordance to the polls, here is the profile of Viola! This is mostly a draft for the time being (writing this up at 4 A.M before my work shift) though it should be enough to give you guys an idea of what to expect from her. I included an image of her in the google doc itself, not sure if the ...

(page edited, text now makes more sense with what's happening.)
Another Sunday, another page. Merry Christmas everyone!
At this point there may be some pages that may needed editing and re-uploading because, at this point I'm noticing some mistakes that I've been missing. ...

Gotta go fast!
Yup! I posted a page twice and never noticed. WHOOPS! okay, two pages today! (go check page 16, it should be the proper sequence now.)
2021-12-12 13:39:51 +0000 UTC View PostAs stated earlier, I have my central cast of characters, their origins and personalities, but I have yet to focus on one long enough to make a proper profile beyond Lethia, the character who started the whole chain of thoughts. Helping pick what character to focus on will help me focus on them as...

It's also the first post of the new month, which also means it's poll time again!
I'm still working on making proper character profiles for the main cast and major characters. How about you all help me pick which one to focus on for the month. Apparently I can't have both a poll and image ...
So those of you who will be reading the novel's beta may notice some discrepancies between versions at this point. This is because were kind of going through the 'scott pilgrim' experience, or, one media is being made while the other is incomplete (the movie came out before the last book, yet the...

It's my birthday today! To celebrate, I'm actually sharing a piece of art someone did for me to show what they can do. They are looking to generate some exposure for commission work and offered me a free image.
This, is Lady Hilgith, Lady death, Mistress of magic and the eternal judge. The...
As a quick writing update, over 1/3 done editing on the first run. Have certainly found some issues I needed ironing out, because no first draft was perfect. At the rate I'm going I hope to finish by Christmas.

Good morning sleepy head! Actually this is fitting, gotta wake my girlfriend up for a trip to the flea market today. Gonna try and advertise my patreon there.
Again, if you enjoy Celosia, please by all means, share my patreon with friends and family, or those who may be interested. Feel fr...

On time today, ha! Pardon the lack of professionalism, but at the same time I wanna be real and kind of fun for you guys.
2021-11-07 22:29:43 +0000 UTC View PostI just felt like I needed to throw this up quickly since my posts don't always come out on the day I say I will. I'm just kind of scatter brained. I did finish making a document of the wolfram of course, though now only one person has voting power of what side details I should do next.

A day late again, yes. I've been getting exhausted from the near endless graveyard shifts, I can't seem to handle them all too well. Thankfully my new schedule is looking far more forgiving and ill be able to see the sunlight again.
I also want to point out my first draft is nearing comple...
As a quick update for the novel itself, approaching 70k words, chapter 12 done. First draft is nearing completion, feels weird how I've managed to put down so much.

So fun fact, originally Lethia wasn't suppose to have underwear. Why? Because nudity isn't a big deal in celosia. A body is a body is a body. That is until my girlfriend pointed two things out. A: Bigger breasts do technically need bras to help keep them comfortable. B: Anyone woman who does phys...
