2025-07-08 00:06:10 +0000 UTC View PostI'm not dead, even if I feel like it.
Earlier in the week I got stitches in my shoulder. Nothing major, but they popped without me noticing on Friday and my arm hurt so much I can't type for very long, and with the holiday, no one's been able to see me until today.
I'm still trying to get some done, but it's a slow process. Should have enough for tomorrow but from then, I'll have...
2025-07-06 16:50:08 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for the late post, everyone.
I forgot tomorrow is the 4th of July, so had to rush all day.
Tomorrows might be late as well, as the family celebrates, but it shouldn't be anywhere near as late as today.
Enjoy!

2025-07-04 05:28:57 +0000 UTC View PostThe heart of Halirosa at night was a current of bodies and voices, laughter cutting through the hush of distant bells and the slap of boot soles on stone. Hugo melted into the stream, letting the crowd’s flow disguise the shift of his pace. The city’s underbelly had its own rhythm, one he’d learned to echo years ago — never hurrying, never still, always half an eye on the next sh...

2025-07-01 20:07:47 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone! My break's over and we're back with new chapters! woot!
All the Alpha Strike chapters should be updated now.
The make-up for WLTK has was also dropped yesterday if you missed it.
The make-up chapter for AS should be out sometime this week as well, so keep an eye out for it.
2025-06-30 20:15:29 +0000 UTC View PostThe tavern reeked of sweat, spilled ale, and desperation. Somewhere near the hearth, a bard plucked an out-of-tune lyre, his voice lost beneath the overlapping murmur of half a hundred conversations. Candles guttered in smoky lanterns, casting ragged shadows across the warped floorboards. Even at midday, it was dim inside the Ragpicker’s Den — just one of Halirosa’s many gutterside drinki...

2025-06-30 00:47:17 +0000 UTC View PostSo, after spending all day trying to write this Alpha Strike chapter with nothing, coupled with the screw up that made me lose a lot of progress on We Lease The Kraken on Sunday, and the personal frustration with the quality of a couple of recent chapters, I think need to accept that I might be just a Liiiiittle burned out.
After a month and a half of daily releases, I think that's fair, ...

I screwed up deleted a bunch of my notes, chapter outlines and similar stuff, so I've been working to rebuild/recover what I can. Doesn't look like I'm going to finish today though.

2025-06-19 22:29:38 +0000 UTC View PostSo, the last few chapters - roughly 7 or 8 onward, have been given me some trouble.
Mostly I've been getting the feeling like their general feel is off somehow, or not quite up to standard.
That said, I'm also aware I sometimes get into a bit of a Critical view of my own work sometimes, and it can warp how I see things.
So instead of beating myself over it, I figured, why n...
2025-06-19 04:58:34 +0000 UTC View PostSorry for the delay. I'm right in the middle of some big storms and Power has been spotty all day.
Enjoy the chapters!
2025-06-19 03:49:35 +0000 UTC View PostLewis lingered at the edge of the glass display case, his hands shoved deep in his pockets, eyes fixed on the neat rows of Beast Talismans. The sunlight slanted through the windows, casting each delicate rune and animal-shaped calligram in a soft, golden glow. Jeremiah watched as Lewis leaned closer, his brow furrowing as he traced the looping, unfamiliar symbols beneath each card.
Chapter might be late today.
There's been flickering power outages because of the storms in the area. I've been making progress when I've got power, but no ETA as of right now. If power holds for the next hour or two, might be able to get it out tonight. otherwise, not sure.

For a long moment, he simply watched the shifting light, listening to the muffled clatter of dishes and the rise and fall of voices from the street outside. Jeremiah waited, uncertain, feeling the hush stretch between them, ea...
