2022-12-29 17:01:27 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone! I hope you're all having a good week. Please give this one a read and let me know what you think. Is it plausible? Is this chapter too unsatisfying? (I split the meeting with the "clients" into two parts.)
Thanks for all your help and su...
2022-12-28 17:26:09 +0000 UTC View PostOkay, I decided to buckle down and clean up the old tags. Everything should make sense now. VOT books are labeled with the correct book # and CD&EA is no more - we've got Cyber Dreams 1 and Cyber Dreams 2.
Also, I had to remove the chapters for book 2 of FWFW.
Thanks for your pati...

“We don’t have to visit the Elementalist Guild today,” Valla said as they walked away from the arena. “We’re due to go to the War Captain’s dinner in a couple of hours.” 2022-12-22 15:37:19 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey all, this weekend, I'll probably remove FWFW 2 from RR and Patreon. If you're still reading those chapters and this will be too quick, send me a message. Those are the chapters tagged with "Morgan Arc 2," "Bronwyn Arc 2," and "Olivia Arc 2."
Wow - I used to do things in a confusing way,...

2022-12-16 19:38:20 +0000 UTC View PostHey all! So, Victor's trying to grow as a person, but some of his lingering awkwardness is showcased in this chapter. Please let me know if it's too off-putting or annoying. I was going for more likeable doofus than arrogant jerk. Let me know if I messed that up, please!...

The tags for this book will say "book 5" because books 1 and 2 were combined to make the official "book 1."

Well, here's another shot at it - still not finalized, that's why the watermarks. They're asking me for feedback before they finalize. Do any of you have suggestions that wouldn't require the artist to restart completely?

I cut my knuckle on a sharp edge while moving a reclining chair yesterday - what an annoying place to get a cut! Every time I bend my finger, it starts bleeding again, which is kinda slowing down the old typing. 2022-12-07 15:15:45 +0000 UTC View Post

Recently I’ve had some comments, especially some very impassioned ones from Halfcrzy (thanks!) here on Patreon, that got me thinking about the longevity of this story. I want it to go the distance, and that means I have to be careful with power creep. Additionally, there were some ...
