Neon Dust 1.10 - Welcome to the Neighborhood

Here's chapter 10! Seems like some of you are enjoying this story, and I'm having fun writing it, so all's good, I suppose. I'll keep working on Patreon chapters until we have fifty or so; then, we'll see if Royal Road likes it.

Have a great weekend. I'm gonna take a few hours off :D

Vainglory 2.11 - Aboard the Bounty

Enjoy the chapter, and have a great weekend!

-Plum

11 – Aboard the Bounty

Later that day, Ward sat in the cabin he shared with Haley and quietly polished his boots. Haley was napping, or at least, she had been, but when he looked up after buffing the dry polish, she was lying on her side, watching hi...

Victor 9.26 - Tenecoalt

Well, folks, here's today's Victor chapter. I hope you enjoy :)

-Plum

Victor stood in the central room of his chambers, half of which was taken up by the dining table and half by a sitting area with a few built-in curio cabinets and bookshelves. He’d locked all the windows and doors, but considering the recent assassinatio...

Vainglory 2.10 - A Fated Encounter

Here's today's chapter! Enjoy :)

-Plum

10 – A Fated Encounter

The steam-powered cargo ship was a big vessel, though not nearly as large as a cruise ship Ward had once spent two summertime weeks on as it traversed the Caribbean. The captain himself met with them near the end of the busy gangplank as h...

Victor 9.25 - Schemes

Enjoy the chapter!

-Plum

When Victor finally returned to his chambers atop the central tower in his palace, he was exhausted. Tyla Haveshi had kept him talking to her, her son, Draj, and half a dozen elder cousins—the decision-makers in the clan—for nearly four hours. In the end, Victor concluded that the people of the H...

Victor Six, Magma Heart, is live on KU and Audible today!

I know most of you have read this content, but it's a bit more polished on Kindle! Not to mention, the audiobook performed by Robb Moreira is a lot of fun. I'd love it if some of you would check 'em out. If you have KU, it wouldn't cost you anything.

Amazon's algorithm can be pretty harsh on indie-published books. It's really important on the first day or two of a book launch to receive l...

Neon Dust 1.9 - Fade

Hey! It's a Neon Dust chappy :)

Enjoy!

9 – Fade

“JJ, initiate dust link.” As her body tingled slightly and her sense of self expanded to include her little drone, Addie sent it up, out of her hands, and into the air behind her.

“JJ’s your PAI?” Tony asked, eyeing the softly humming eg...

Vainglory 2.9 - Stories We Tell

Here's your delivery! Have a great day :)

-Plum

9 – Stories We Tell

Back at the tavern across from their inn, Ward sat in a dim corner, sipping a cold beer while he studied the spell he’d taken from Elliot. The words weren’t uncomfortable for him to look at, and he figured he had a good chance of...

Victor 9.24 - The Weight of Rule

Enjoy the chapter :) Hope this stuff isn't too boring; I think it's fun to see how Victor can grow in different situations.

Cheers,

Plum

The vast teleportation network on Ruhn made traveling between cities and larger towns painless, but it took something away from the scale of the world, at le...

Neon Dust 1.8 - Dubious Backing

Happy Saturday :)

Enjoy~

-Plum

8 - Dubious Backing

As they walked, Tony sipped from a can of Orange Nuke he’d picked up at Mr. Nguyen’s bodega. He’d paid using a couple of the extra bits he had on the bit locker Addie’s dad had given him. They were looking for Be...

Vainglory 2.8 - Trading Words

Enjoy the chapter!

-Plum

Grace disappeared again as the sound of Elliot’s footsteps drew near. The strange, hungry-looking man held a thick, leather-bound book in his ink-stained hands. “I’m quite sure that this tome will have some mention of those runes. I was reading it last month, and if I recall correctly, it had s...

Victor 9.23 - Schemers

Enjoy today's chapter! I know not all the "rules" have been laid out yet, and some of you are wondering how coups, for instance, can happen while the veil walkers watch over nations of Ruhn. I'll explain it soon, maybe next chapter. The short story is that rulers and their protectors are fair game - there are assassination rules like there are champion dueling rules. 2024-10-03 19:06:35 +0000 UTC View Post

Vainglory 2.7 - Blazewitch

Here's today's delivery!

Hope you're enjoying things :)

-Plum

“I’m Riley,” the woman with the fancy spectacles said, tapping the countertop, “and I’d be happy to answer any questions you might have about our alchemical arms.”

Ward stepped up to the counter, his eyes still dra...

Neon Dust 1.7 - Gaining Followers

A little more depth on Addie and a bit more lore. Enjoy :)

-Plum

7 – Gaining Followers

Addie lay in her bed, watching the colorful lights from the neon signs flickering on her ceiling and listening to the sounds of the city outside her window. Her body was tired, but her mind was busy, far too busy f...

Victor 9.22 - Fire and Ice

I hope you're having fun :)

-Plum

The fact that Victor didn’t gain a level from his slaughter of the would-be assassins told him a great deal about them; they weren’t steel seekers, and they likely weren’t even tier-eight or nine iron rankers. Still, the surge of Energy was enough to distract him for a moment, refill h...

Vainglory 2.6 - Market Square

Hi folks! I hope you enjoy today's chapter. :)

On another note, I was hoping I could ask you for some help. I seem to have attracted a hater over on Royal Road, and he's decided to leave the world a lengthy post about how awful my writing is on this story. If it were Cyber Dreams or Victor of Tucson, I'd just ignore it as there are hundreds of other reviews to balance it out,...
