Keep in mind that this is out of place: in the finished version of book 2, it will be nearer the beginning, and there will be a Bronwyn chapter every five or so chapters spread throughout.

2022-05-24 14:22:37 +0000 UTC View PostTomorrow I'll begin posting for the Bronwyn Arc that goes into book 2. After we get through that, we'll be at the climax of this book and wrap it up in a few chapters. Then on to book three :)

2022-05-20 19:48:46 +0000 UTC View PostDear Patrons and Olivia fans - I have a sinking feeling that I messed up Olivia's stats at some point. If you can see a mistake I made, please let me know because I can't figure it out.
Thanks!

2022-05-20 13:52:35 +0000 UTC View PostMorgan looked down at the little hollow and then out over the rough hillsides. He didn’t see any better options, so he led the six Ardeni down into the rocky, scree-covered space between two hillsides. The slope was fairly steep, and the gully was well hidden from casual observation. “I want ...
2022-05-19 14:06:27 +0000 UTC View PostMorgan had been teleported before, and he was pretty sure that was what was happening to him now. As the darkness seemed to rush past him, he wondered why teleportation seemed different based on who or what was causing it. He'd seen kaleidoscopic lights with the Token of Travel; when the Yovashi ...

2022-05-17 16:47:36 +0000 UTC View PostHey all,
When I started writing FWFW volume 2, I wasn't sure I was going to include a Bronwyn arc. The further in I got, though, the more I realized I needed it. Now we're starting to near the climax of Vol. 2, and before I publish that to you all, I think I need to deliver the ten or...
2022-05-17 14:05:59 +0000 UTC View PostLike the last two chests, the bronze chest offered her different rewards, and when Olivia touched one of them, the other two disappeared. This time there were only three choices: a crystal orb, a red metal ring, and another book. She’d already taken one book, so this time she reached for the ri...
2022-05-17 14:02:11 +0000 UTC View PostLooking at the cold, dark water, Olivia debated whether to go back to the room where she’d first met Jaliss to try one of the other doors. She supposed there could be another path forward, but would she have to fight through four more rooms? There was also the chance that the doors only led to ...
2022-05-16 13:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostOlivia strode through the slime puddles and chunks of frozen ooze, moving on toward the door that should take her to the final room of the third level. She’d had to fight, predictable, four oozes in the fourth room, so she figured there’d be five in the final room. She didn’t want to be ove...
2022-05-15 04:35:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey all - I figured since I'm only promising one chapter a week, I shouldn't leave people on a cliffhanger. I finished the scene with the creepy thing in the corner:

2022-05-13 18:02:39 +0000 UTC View PostMorgan fought like a man possessed. Perhaps he was, for the spirit in his sword had come calling, and he methodically cut and clawed at the creatures swarming him. He wielded his sword in his right hand, slicing and stabbing, and his left hand, surrounded by the ghostly remnant of whatever kind o...
2022-05-13 14:00:45 +0000 UTC View PostThe rescue party, much diminished, had continued down the gargantuan tunnel, ever descending, until they started to notice smaller tunnels branching off to the left and right. Still, the enormous central tunnel continued, but Rorth called a halt and turned to Issa and Morgan to consult. “I’m ...
2022-05-12 14:20:01 +0000 UTC View PostThe chest had a light coating of frost on its smooth cherrywood surface, but it opened noiselessly on polished brass hinges. It was about the size of Olivia’s father’s old red toolbox, but its contents wouldn’t have gone well in anyone’s garage. Laid out neatly, lined up next to each othe...

2022-05-10 18:13:24 +0000 UTC View PostOlivia stepped off the stairway onto a polished marble floor the color of a pale pink rose. Warm light suffused the air, making the small chamber feel welcoming and restful. Opposite the stairs, about five paces away, a cherrywood door with a crystal doorknob awaited her. She glanced around the r...
2022-05-10 14:13:42 +0000 UTC View PostI made a bunch of edits and added a short scene to the end of Victor 7b. If you're following that story, you might want to check it out.
Cheers!
2022-05-09 15:50:50 +0000 UTC View PostMorgan charged into a clump of the gargoyles, as he’d dubbed them in his own mind, and fired off another Azure Burst just as it came off cooldown. Six or so of the creatures tumbled through the air and over the rocky ground, supernatural flames clinging to their thick, clay-like hide. They scre...

Morgan Stood near the prow of the long flat cargo barge, looking over the assembled grim-faced warriors. By the time the barge had arrived at the central pier, Issa had selected thirty-two experienced hunters and fighters. Most of them were above level twenty, which they called tier two. As she e...

Issa had been filling Morgan in on what he’d missed while his body went through its changes. It amounted to a lot of her visitin...
2022-05-06 13:22:44 +0000 UTC View PostOlivia summoned a ball of fire and tossed it high into the air, using her will to hold it, hovering there, shedding light over a large area. She was at the base of the stone chasm wall, and an uneven rocky floor spread out before her, littered with rocks and boulders from tiny to cottage-sized. S...
2022-05-05 14:15:05 +0000 UTC View PostThe portal was a swirling maelstrom of silver and black whorls. It wasn’t passively sitting in the archway, either, but rather tugging at Olivia and the room's air. When she stepped toward it and reached a hand into the spinning plane, it yanked hungrily at her, and she found herself stumbling ...
