Street Cultivation 2: Chapters 33-34
We're getting into the holiday season, but the Saturdays are in between the major days, so I intend to keep posting like usual. Plus an end of year review, most likely.

Three chapters this week! They take us into brand new territory, but this is only one component of this novel, not a new direction.

Some romance this time, so I hope you guys are on board. It's pretty far from conventional anime antics, but I tried to do something more grounded with the related tropes. If it's not for you, there's a bit of an adventure coming up in the next set of chapters.

One thing about the first book that dissatisfied me a bit was that many of the fights had similar fundamental setups. Now that Rick isn't tied to the Underground, I wanted to include some diversity, and these chapters get into that.

Two new chapters, including some worldbuilding that I think is fun. Just been waiting for the appropriate time to introduce these elements.

Three chapters this week. I thought about giving you two and avoiding the cliffhanger, but those two alone would be a bit short.

It's been a little while, so I thought it would be good to do a monthly update.
Bonus Short Story: This isn't related to anything else I've done and it's not leading up to any larger project, but I wrote a short story if you're interested. You might find it fun if you're into cosmic horror:...

Couple of larger chapters this time, including some worldbuilding I've been wanting to include for a while. I hope everybody has enjoyed the book so far, because the stage is set and several things are about to kick into gear.

Well, hello to all the new people! There are a whole bunch of you, so I hope everyone enjoys the ride. ^-^
We have a couple of larger chapters this week. One thing I like about a less frequent schedule is that it's easier to make the chapters whatever size I think they should be. Though I'm...

Okay, we're doing this! The second book will be posted every Saturday, several chapters at a time instead of just one. I'll post more based on wordcount than on an exact number of chapters, but to start things off with a bang I decided to post more than normal.
I've already said a fair amou...

I put the headline up top: starting next week, I'll begin my posting schedule for the new book. It took a bit longer than I'd hoped, but now I can commit to a solid schedule of weekly posts that I expect to last about half a year until the second book is complete.

Well, this launch has been a bit crazy. At first I was happy just to reach the top 1000, but I've stayed there longer than I expected and actually broken higher several times! Though there weren't as many reviews on launch as hoped, a steady stream of new ones has kept eyes on the book. Thanks so...

The biggest update this month is obviously that Street Cultivation finished, you guys getting it early and the final chapter being posted on RoyalRoad just today.

And here we are. After half a year and many chapters, we've come to this point. I've tried to do a modernized and grounded take on the young master trope and I can only hope that people find it satisfying. 2019-07-20 01:47:58 +0000 UTC View Post
Early Chapter 55: Final Preparations
This is the last breather chapter before the big fight. Though it's long enough that I could have divided it into 3-4 different chapters, I decided that I'm going to post the whole climactic battle at once. Please look forward to it. ^-^
