So... I've been thinking about Soverign Stones, (and before anyone panics, I'm not dropping it) and I feel like I tried to push the story too much. I'm going to refactor the story a little, putting 2-3 chapters of slice of life in before the current chapter 2 would probably make it fl...

“I don’t do anything half assed!” I snorted.
All around us the twelve foot tall bear-acade walls drove their a...
2025-04-21 16:59:04 +0000 UTC View PostSo, I've been asked by someone to explain exactly what's going on in Imaginary. I'm illuding to a lot of concepts, but taking a while to explain them.
Fair. Most of them will probably be explained in the next 5-6 chapters, and since I like to release 10 chapters day one for new fictions, ...
“Three hives down, only a couple dozen more to go,” I grumbled as we made our way back out of the hive.
Once Saber had retrieved Trench’s remains, the clean up had been quick and painless. Stuff flesh melters into every possible crevice, and watch everything turn to goop. I kept...

“I didn’t think we’d be leaving the city for this,” I muttered as the scenery outside the window flew by. I couldn’t remember the last time I’d been outside our little neighbourhood, never mind the greater urban area. I didn’t exactly crave the great ou...
2025-04-18 17:00:46 +0000 UTC View PostI made some minor changes to the end of chapter two, and since the start of chapter three wouldn't make sense without them, I included them here. It should be fairly apparent where the changes come in, the first line is the same as an existing line in chapter two.

2025-04-17 23:27:03 +0000 UTC View Post"I’m not leaving your side ever again,” Bob blubbered once he finally made it down into the cavern. “You almost died.”
“I’m really going to die if you don’t let me go,” I croaked into the bear's chest as he hugged me tight. “I can’t breathe!”

How can you fit everything you want into two backpacks?” my mother asked worriedly as I placed my two small bags on the small mountain of cardboard boxes she’d...
2025-04-15 20:47:38 +0000 UTC View PostThe tunnel system was so narrow that the bears could only travel two a breast, and the samurai had to travel in a single file line. As an undercity dweller the enclosed space didn’t bother me, I actually found it comforting, but not everyone felt the same.
“It’s fine… I’ll ...
2025-04-15 16:25:04 +0000 UTC View PostSo... I'm thinking that I'll be doing 2 chapters of Stones, and 2 chapters of Imaginary per week for the next few weeks, until I figure out exactly which one I'm going to publish on Royal Road and Scriblehub.
I'll probably add in the occational chapter...
2025-04-14 22:16:17 +0000 UTC View PostLittle shorter today... I may try to pad it out later, but this seemed like a pretty natural place to leave off.
Once the Twenty-Ones were taken care of, the team swiftly moved on to dismantling the hive. Both Helen, and Saber had their own tech for destroying Anti...
2025-04-14 17:08:48 +0000 UTC View Post“Was this really necessary?” Camille asked warily as we approached the edge of the village.
“Kill the Barghast? Absolutely. You saw the damage it caused to the livestock over the last two days, if we left it alone any longer it could have devastated our food supply,” I replie...
2025-04-11 23:38:11 +0000 UTC View PostHere is the second half! It's a story I'd like to continue writing it, but lost some steam for a week or two. Mostly because even though chapters seven and eight are necessary, weren't as fun to write. I just have to get it into my head that 2-3 more chapters and I can get to the real...
2025-04-11 16:50:54 +0000 UTC View PostEveryone started yelling at once.
“Gather up, backs against the wall!”
“Watch for any sign! Don’t let them get close!”

Thankfully, due to the stress of the situation, no one really caught my somewhat ina...

Here's what I wrote today! Something different from my regular stuff... it's tropey as hell, full of systems, numbers, cores and tiny little maids. (They'll be featured a lot if continued)
Seriously though, it was inspired by the very FF image I linked in the post. I would ab...
Hey all! I'm still plugging away at the other test chapter for the day, (started with it, swapped to TBoB, now swapping back) but I thought I'd provide something for you to chew through.
This is a story I've been slowly plugging away at over a couple weeks. It's more of a character driven...
The entrance to the second hive was enormous, large enough that someone could have driven a semi into it. Even after clearing off the surface there was a slow, but steady, stream of Model Threes, Fours, and Fives pouring out of the darkness to stop us. That either meant that the hive was i...
2025-04-10 20:49:09 +0000 UTC View PostIs this the end of the book? Probably. I may go back and add a few chapters near the end, if I think of anything else to add, but I think that's a good (and slightly evil) place to leave things.
As many of you have guessed, daddy dearest's disappearance had something to do with Mon...
“I kind of expected to emerge out of that hole to a sea of bears,” Saber mumbled when we finally emerged from the now defunct hive. “Where’s your army?”
“Trying to contain the incursion and defend the surrounding towns,” I grumbled. “I didn’t expect the antithesis t...
2025-04-08 17:36:14 +0000 UTC View PostIt took a lot longer to clear out the vegetation than I expected. Not only was it a lot more extensive than I imagined, but it grew back extremely quickly. In the end, we had to exhaust the hive's entire reserve of biomass, or energy, or whatever it was using to grow back before we could f...

Donno why this took so long, and not sure if I'm super happy with this draft, but I'm pretty sure I can polish it up later.
Even though Bob’s reckless march straight through the tunnel walls wasn’t the smartest move in the world, it did provide a convenient path to fina...
2025-04-04 17:36:25 +0000 UTC View PostMade it, but man... did that take awhile. Not going to lie, I wasn't writing that entire time, I got distracted. Despite being pretty different to most chappies, pretty happy with this one. Just a couple more chapters left to wrap everything up before the end of the book!

“I don’t know, but Deadbeat’s gone! I’ve completely lost him!” I shouted. I was trying my best to keep my cool, but deep down I was panicking. I’d lost bears before, but this was the first time I’d lost a member of the s...

Once again, thanks for the patience over the last few days, I appreciate it.

After six fricking months of dealing with the insurance company, and repair companies, the restoration company came in and put all my furniture back ...
So, first of all, no TH today. I started, and discarded two different chapters because I really didn't like them. The reason is, we're getting close to the end of TH book two, and I want to end in a good place.
It's harder than you'd expect. T_T
Now, this post isn't just to let you k...
