“There’s something strange about this place,” Dylan said.
They had managed to make it across two islands on the first day, both very similar to the one they had started on, minus the ancient wizard or godly temple. It was almost as if a giant forest had been broken up into dozens of pieces. Every time they found a clearing, Hu...
2025-09-10 02:08:40 +0000 UTC View PostI don't usually have so much fun at the start of a new book. Usually I'm a bit burnt out by the end of a book and trying to figure out how to get the next one going but this one's really clicking for me. Hope you like the chapter!
Standing outside the ruins of the black-stone temple, and in the wilds of a forest of a different land, they stared out at the distant i...
2025-09-07 01:51:55 +0000 UTC View PostA new book begins! Got a lot of outlining done over the last week so I'm feeling particularly organised at the moment. I have an unusually concrete plan for me which feels great.
“Before we begin,” Hump said to the disgruntled god standing before him. “I feel like it’s important to reiterate that we had nothing to do with your beloved’s death. She was dea...

Book 7 begins Tuesday 2nd September. Authors note at the end of this post with more details.
The darkness swallowed Hump. His senses fell away—no light, no smell, no sound. Even the essence of the world was gone. All he had was his touch. His friends were with him, holding onto each other tightly. Vines bound th...
2025-08-24 02:13:39 +0000 UTC View PostOne more chapter to go for Book 6 after this! I've had a few questions about this so just to be clear, the series will continue with Book 7 immediately after on the same schedule. Don't worry--there's still quite a let of HW to go :P
There was no defeating Godfrey. Hump knew it. The man was too fast, too powerful, and too tough. He’d dealt with both Lady Kaisura ...
2025-08-21 01:40:35 +0000 UTC View PostThis chapter had me pulling my hair out! Apologies for the wait. Found myself a little stuck and it took me until today to work things out. I'll do my best to have a chapter tomorrow, but one day may end up not being enough if it's a difficult chapter so keep an eye on the community chat for updates.
Hope you like the chapter!

2025-08-19 00:27:39 +0000 UTC View PostBit of a rush this one after the delays on last chapter. Felt pretty clean though. I get kinda nervous writing finales. It's always such high pressure but I'm really liking how this one's coming together. Hope you like the chapter!

“An invasion, huh?” Walt said. “I’m guessing now’s not a good time for a chat then.”
Hump gave a shake of his head and ran his hand through his hair. “I’m a little short on time right now.”
Being here. Being out of the battle, Hump ...

The stench was the worst part, like roasting meat. Only it made Hump’s stomach churn. His eyes remained hard as he watched. Anthony didn’t scream for long, yet somehow, he didn’t fall immediately to his knees. Instead, he stood there, eerily silent and still. Seconds passed. Still the fire raged from Hump’s staff, dancing through the tun...
2025-08-04 01:32:37 +0000 UTC View PostI need to attach a warning to this chapter. It's taken me to 4am to finish it and while I think it's good, I'm not sure how reliable my judgement is right now. I've not been able to go over it yet so if you would rather wait, I'll post the edited version tomorrow.
I'm also considering some mashup of the first part of this chapter and the end of last chapter so tha...
2025-07-30 02:50:58 +0000 UTC View PostHope you like the chapter! It's another fairly long one today. I may need to do another editing pass on it but I've been over it thoroughly once. I always feel like there's more editing to do for fight scenes though. There's so many actions going on that they can be refined so much.
Warlock Antony was coming. Bud felt his presence in the air. Like a deadly weight, his kil...

“It’s not a bad idea,” Emilia said.
“Of course not,” Hump said. “When has bringing the roof down ever not been helpful.”
“That’s not what I meant,” Emilia said. “At least not entirely. With us, we have enough arti...
2025-07-24 01:49:58 +0000 UTC View PostLong chapter today! I'm on holiday this weekend and haven't had a chance to edit it as thoroughly as normal. I think it's a clean draft.
One change - Prince Gregory is now a Chosen of Light rather than Ordana. Should have been that way from the start as it makes sense for the royal family to be her Chosen.
Hump backed slowly away from the vau...
