Cyber Dreams 4.20 - Messes to Clean

Hi everyone! Lots of discussion around Juliet's use of the lattice lately. I kind of addressed this already at the start of the last post, but after reading what people had to say, I've come away with a bit clearer picture of what I should do going forward. In the past, Juliet has exp...

Victor 6.28 - Wrong Place

Enjoy the chapter - a lot of quick scene shifts, and I feel it might seem disjointed. Let me know if it reads badly, please.

Victor was alone in his travel home, sitting on the floor of one of the empty rooms in the ...

Cyber Dreams 4.19 - Breakfast With a Friend

Have a great week! Love to hear the speculation and the feedback. It's true, Juliet didn't use her psionic abilities much at the bar, and she could have probably stomached spending more time listening to Ray and Larry's thoughts. Let's all remember something, though - those guys were ...

Victor 6.27 - Old Friends and More Plans

Whew! It's been a very Victor-centric weekend. I'm ready to write some Cyber Dreams tomorrow :)

Hope you all enjoyed the chapter dump. I'm glad to finally have something to offer my tier-3 Victor supporters.

See you soon,...

Victor 6.25 - Ties That No Longer Bind

9/10 for tier 3!

Thanks for reading :)


“What it boils down to,” Victor sighed, closing the command book, the Farscribe book he shared with Rellia, Borrius, and Lam, “is that we need more information. I think I need t...

Victor 6.24 - Good Habits

8/10 for tier 3! Yay!

Enjoy the chapter :)

Victor didn’t wait for the soldiers to respond or for any of their leaders, Sarl included, to rush forward with questions that might delay their movements. He didn’t know exactly how lon...

Victor 6.22 - A Fated Meeting

Good Morning! 6/10 for tier 3.


The climb to the top of the keep’s wall was brutal, but whatever had been bombarding him on the ground had stopped, so Victor was thankful for small mercies. He wondered if perhaps the defenders so high up couldn’t see ...

Victor 6.19 - Icons and Battle Plans

Enjoy! :)

Victor soon realized he’d been missing out when it came to weapons practice; he’d had access to Kethelket ever since the battle on the plains with the Ridonne, and he’d squandered that time. The Naghelli prince was a dervish with his blades, easily ...

Exciting days, Victor of Tucson readers! I've finally managed to complete ten additional chapters of VOT and will be posting them for my tier-3 patrons throughout the day today, tomorrow, and maybe Monday. I'm done WRITING the chapters, but not editing. That's why I'm not just posting...

Collections and Victor Book 4 Title and Cover.

Hi, everyone! I noticed that Patreon implemented something called "collections." I don't think I saw this yesterday, so I think it's brand new. They took the "tags" link off the main page (at least for me), so you'll want to click on "collections" to find the book you're currently reading. I've t...

Cyber Dreams 4.17 - Same Old MO

Good morning, everyone! I hope you enjoy this chapter. I'm trying to showcase a little of Juliet's character growth here. I realize we're on chapter 17 already, but I'm still kind of setting the stage for the "main event" of book 4. There's more to come from this scene at The Raptor H...

Victor 6.15 - Fire of the Ancestors

Some more action! I'm glad many of you seemed to enjoy the last chapter; I had a lot of fun writing it. This one was fun, too, but sometimes I get a feeling when I write a chapter, like, "Oh, this is a good one." 6.14 was one of those. Still, I'm enjoying this whole arc; hope you all ...

Cyber Dreams 4.14 - Dogfight

Man, second night of insomnia this week. Well, enjoy the chapter! If I don't respond much today, it's because my brain finally turned off, and I fell asleep :D Let me know if this chapter's action is understandable. I tried to make it a little hectic to convey Juliet's POV. View Post
