Hey guys!
Just as an update: more Master Arcanist soon! I'm still recovering from jaw surgery, and once I get back to my normal writing group meetings, I'll be posting more chapters.
Hopefully that's okay!

You decide to join the Arcanist Festival.
And why not? You’re arcanist now, and the entire island will be the...

More content. Hope you're enjoying!

Hey peeps!
I'm still excited for the release, even while I'll sleeping most of the day, lol - I had dreams about Demarco and the ship. o.o
Hope you all enjoy!
Sawyer lifted an eyebrow. “Excited?”
“To be here with you? Of course.”

Surgery really kicked my butt. Hopefully you all enjoy these new chapters!
Sen had wanted Kellan to focus on body magic. While it had merits, Kellan just felt a defiant edge that wouldn’t let him take it. Maybe this was my “low wisdom” speaking, but I didn...

We'll be wrapping this arc up of the CYOA soon. All the items/abilities acquired will carry over to the next arc. Hopefully you're all prepared!

Here is the Nov short story (as told from the viewpoint of Ezril and his eldrin, the Keeper of Corpses).
I think you'll need to have read Arcanist Fables for this (since Ezril is a character there) but if you haven't, this is still a story you can understand.
I'm going into surgery today. Wish me luck.
Hey guys,
Weekend was crazy. I wanted to do a lot more, but things kept getting in the way. First my mother, then family, and now my tooth.
Quick aside: I grew up super poor, and my crooked teeth were never corrected as a kid. Now, as an adult, I've gone in to have my problems fixed, but Invisa-lign isn't enough to straighten some teeth, so one will likely have to be removed. I'm su...
2021-11-29 05:30:39 +0000 UTC View PostSo, Patreon doesn't want to do "timed published posts" for me. I might have to try something different with this.
Here is more litRPG goodness. Weekend has been sad and long, but at least I have things to post! I like looking on the bright side.

2021-11-29 05:26:53 +0000 UTC View PostThis adventure has definitely been crazier than I thought!
I might post it all in one spot (and it's going on the wiki) for anyone who wants to see the things that happened before.
Here's more!

Wyre slowly nodded. “All right. Bu...

Holidays are crazy. Feeling mildly bummed. Still writing like crazy, lol (Also, I had these chapters set to go up on a "schedule" but apparently Patreon just wouldn't do that, so here they are as a set of 3). Hopefully you enjoy.

Hey peeps!
I'm currently tweaking Chapters 1-7 of Master Arcanist. It should go up around Wednesday, along with chapter 8. Someone made a suggestion to improve the section, so I'm just going to try it out, and then put it out there (which is what I've been doing with the manuscript at this point).
Don't worry, though - I'm still working on the parts beyond the fenrsi wolf's lair, an...

Hey guys!
So, this random project has taken on a bizarre life of its own. The artwork above is done by a buddy (Serbia guy!) It's being changed a bit (it's not final) but hopefully you all enjoy. I like it. o.o
ANYWAY, here is another chapter. <3

2021-11-22 11:12:22 +0000 UTC View PostHere is something for the weekend! I'll be out of town most of the time... So much to do, so little time.
Also, everyone will be pleased to know that audiobook of Master Arcanist is already contracted, and that Star Marque 2 audio is in production. <3
Energy has been low lately... I hope I'm not getting sick.
So, a few people contacted me online about doing artwork. This is a friend on FB who wanted to do Evianna! She even included the arcanist mark in the first sketch.
As I said in the CYOA post, this coming week is going to be VERY busy. While I'm going to be writing, my posts will probably slow down because of the holidays. But don't worry! I'll be getting everything done. I'm super excited...

Holidays are coming up this week, so I might be slower to post than usual. I have 3 events (different Thanksgivings, basically) to attend, but I still intend on getting all my writing done during this time. Just a heads up!

Here is Evianna's artwork! I contacted an artist on Fiverr and asked him to bring her to life. At first, he didn't understand her armor situation, so he gave her bright colors. o.o
Hopefully you guys enjoy the final version, but you can also look at the various stages of the design!

“I could ask you the same question,” you say.
Wyre stands straight and then fixes his hat to be more secure on his head. “You should be at the beach,” he says in an accusing tone. He moves closer to the narrow alley from which he stumbled out of. “No one should be here…”

So, whenever I have cover art made, I contact my artist buddy (Darko - he lives in Serbia) and ask him for something.
He usually gives me a few mock-ups or examples (the two posted here are the examples) and then I tell him what needs to be changed or altered, and then he sends me the final copy.
This time I told him I wanted a knightmare on the cover, and he gave me two versi...

You accept the bond.
A feeling of power floods you. And then it vanishes as quickly as it came. Your forehead burns as the arcanist mark permanently embeds itself into your skin. Unlike most arcanists, who have a seven-pointed star of magic and an image of their eldrin, you only have a star. A blank star.

So! Someone reached out to do art for me. And I agreed, because now I want to fill a wiki page. >.>
They drew Evianna as an adult (bottom picture without the ground) and when I asked if it was accurate, I told them the things missing (Evianna has white hair, her cape isn't like that, she has an arcanist mark, etc.) and the second picture is what the artist came back with!

So, Patreon doesn't allow me to announce any sort of chance-based give out thing, so the last one I held I just entered everyone's name here (hopefully you follow me on Facebook, then you would've seen it happening.

“My name is actually librarian,” you say.
Then you grab your book from your satchel and flip it open so the mimic can see. Twain walks over, his ears erect. Then he stares at the first page. There’s a list of names—the people who have checked out the book.
