Preview/Update 5/10/21

Late as usual, pirate scum! Cmon, get off your ships, sea rats! There’s knife work to be done! Also, Dark previews! Ha ha!

Okay, I’m done.

How we all doing? I’m good, thanks for asking.

I’m hoping to put the finishing touches on the next self insert chapter after work tonight. I’ve got all the pieces, just gotta put them together. Dark is already underway, too, as you can see from the preview. I actually did the smart thing for once and started working on it whil...

Preview/Update 20/9/21

Morning all! I actually got an update done on time! Yay me! And say hello to Ben’s new personal assistant, Gaila, who is in love with Archer like everyone else. And also another pirate. Because I have so much fun with the pirates.

Self Insert Dark should be done sometime this week, for those of you holding off on reading the unedited draft. I’d like to just reiterate, though, that they’re unedited by Rice, not by me. I edit my own drafts before sending them off to him as a second...

I am sorry for the lateness of this update; have a look at the new Dark chapter!

Unfortunately, as I’m sure you’ve guessed, Dark is gonna be late. Between a combination of me being sick and this chapter just giving me grief, I couldn’t get it done on time. Seriously, I swear I’ve restarted this fucking thing three times now. It just… wouldn’t. But, that’s an unfortunate part of the creative process. It happens. I think I’ve got a good idea of how to proceed now, and the...

Self Insert Book 3 ch9

Oh my god I cannot believe this one took so damn long. I'm sorry for the delay, but I got sick, then Rice got sick, and just... blegh. But! It's done, it's uploaded, we're all happy!

Good morning, all! I'm doing this update a day early because I noticed we had a bunch of new people sign up with the new chapter. So, how ya all doing? Have one last preview of the next canon Self Insert chapter. 

Good news! I'm recovered enough from whatever plague I had this week (more on that later) that I was able to get the draft of the next Self Insert chapter done! It's off with Rice for editing, and should be up sometime early next week. The Self Insert Dark polls are final...

Good morning, all. Have a look at the next self insert chapter. The idea of social class and standing is something I’ve always enjoyed playing with, and I’ll be doing it a lot more in the coming chapters.

I’m gonna keep this update short because I’m really not feeling well right now. The whole house has a wicked nasty stomach bug, and as I wrote this both my father and brother are horking their guts out. It’s not a fun time here right now, and thank god there’s four bathroom...

Okay! I’m late, but I’m finally getting this damn update done! Have a look at the next Self Insert chapter.

Hello to all my new patrons! I’m guessing y’all signed up after SI!Dark went public? I hope you’re all enjoying the backlog, at any rate. In fact, overall SI!Dark has actually been getting a lot more positive attention than I was expecting. Wait til we get to the fuckin’… XD

I am pushing to get this Self Insert chapter done on time. I’ve just been… vegging ...

Morning, all. Have a gander at the next Self Insert chapter. Yup. It finally happened. Coffee lives. And cute Noire is cute.

So, Dark was actually up on time this month. Yay. Polls for next month to follow. Self Insert proper is underway. I’m making progress, but there’s politicking in this chapter (as well as coffee), and I am not good at writing politicking. So, hopefully it goes well. Blazing Trinity after that, hopefully.

I’m sure y’all got an email alert about a new ...

Morning all! How we doing? Have a look at the next Dark chapter.

So, Dark is well in hand. I should have it done and off to Rice with plenty of time to spare this month. Regular Self Insert to follow. I’m also hoping to get some work with Blazing Trinity this month, too, so hopefully I can get a chapter of that done soon, too.

We’re actually back in lockdown here for the time being, so I’m hoping to get oodles of writing done. I’m more focused than I was last time we were ...

Self Insert Book 3 ch8

Here it is! Another lovely chapter, done late. Ugh. I blame the sex scene. I always have trouble with the sex scenes. As I stated before, there's a 'clean' and 'explicit' version. Just bear in mind, the 'explicit' one is the version that'll be public. 

And there is still aggressive flirting. It was too funny to cut. 

Anyway, hope y'all enjoy!

Evening all! Hope you’re doing well. I shared a chunk of this on Discord, but I really love this particular moment.

It was my incredibly patient editor, Minute Rice’s, birthday yesterday! Happy birthday, bro!

Yes, the Nowi lewd scene has been written. It actually ended up way longer than I intended, but y’all voted on it, so be careful what you wish for. Who knows, maybe I’ll even get some art done of it? But yes, I will still be posting ‘clean’ and ‘explicit’ ve...

Good morning, all! Have another look at the next Self Insert chapter. Poor dog’s not even real and I still feel guilty… I would also like to inform you all that I write this update whilst on the toilet. Because I can. XD

Self Insert progresses steadily. I’m past the sex scene, which was the biggest hurdle. The rest of the chapter is mostly politicking. Now, I know a lot of you voted for no bow-chicka-wow-wow, so I’ll be uploading two versions of the chapter; an explicit...

Morning, all! I didn't forget, I just... have not been well for the last few days. Have a look at the next Self Insert chapter, which, I'm gonna be real, is more than likely gonna be late again. 

So, you know those days where you just go to work, do the absolute bare basic level of involvement with existence and then go home and sleep for twelve straight hours because you just feel like fermented ass? That. That was me yesterday. I just cannot shake this cold, no matter what I do. ...

Morning, all! Have a look at the end of the Sune/Henry arc!

Hope you’re all doing better than me, because I am getting my ass kicked by this cold I thought I had beat last week. Good news is I actually took time off work this time, and I plan to spend all that time writing. Bad news is I need to go to a doctor now to get a medical certificate, and doctors are expensive. I suffer.

Dark progresses well, and I’m glad I’ve got the extra time now to work on it, but I’ll be tot...

Self Insert Book 3 ch7

It! Is! Done! IT IS DONE! 

I'm so sorry this one took so long. I only ever seem to get sick at the end of the goddamned month... 

So, you may notice that I reused my April Fool's joke. I decided 'fuck it' and threw it in, so that the rest of the world can see it eventually, too, when the chapter goes live. Because I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. 

Aside from that, enjoy the stuff! Thank you for your patience with this one!

I’m not dead! Sorry it took so long to get this preview up. Call it a combination of being sick and not really having anything to say.

Good news! The draft of the next chapter is basically done. Rice has informed me I should get it back soon, so I anticipate having it uploaded in the next 48 hours at the latest. Fingers crossed.

As for everything else… blauvongrdbobguvfubdswtipn. Yeah. That great.

I’m gonna sit down and really hammer this Dark chapter out this weeke...

Morning, all! I know, I’m late, I’m an asshole, I’m sorry… Have some cute Emm as a distraction- I mean, ‘apology’.

Seriously, though, the chapter progresses. Slowly. But I don’t see it getting done in time. I’m gonna be real, the new medication I mentioned last week? Yeah, let’s just say I don’t remember last week. And that’s not a joke. I legitimately lost an entire week acclimating to this shit. I remember bits and pieces, but it’s kind of a haze. So,...

Self Insert Book 3 Cover Art

Oh my god it's done and I love it. 

A special treat for y'all, courtesy of the lovely MercyArt, who worked super hard on it: the cover art for Book Three of the Self Insert!

APPLAUSE.

Real talk, though, I absolutely love this piece, and it was totally worth it to get it commissioned for the story. Not just because of my abs (did you see those abs holy shit). This artwork, I feel, really breathes life into the story and portrays the main charact...

Good morning and greetings once more! How we all doing this week? Good, I hope.

So, Dark is done. I’ll do up some polls this weekend for next month’s chapter. Progress has slowed a little on the canon Self Insert chapter, but hopefully I can get it done and to Rice before the end of the week.

The delay with the chapter is due to a change in my anxiety medication. It is fucking me up, yo. I’m lightheaded on and off, and I mean I feel drunk kind of lightheaded, plus...

Morning, all! Have a look at the next chapter of Dark. Oh, and for future reference, Hakim is just the village elder of Raha. No one super duper important at this stage. Y’all didn’t miss something lol.

So, I got all excited yesterday and was like “Dark is done! I can send it to Rice, get a rush order, and relax!” Unfortunately, this is not the case. After careful consideration (fuck you Rice, how dare you do your job by making me think!) I need to delay this chapter by a few da...

Morning, all! Hope everyone’s doing well. I added Archer to the breakfast scene and wanted to share. I’m beginning to realise that this old dog makes every scene he’s in at least ten times better.

Okay, so I’m trying something different with Dark this month. It’s not going well so far. But, I’m still pushing, because variety is the spice of life. Unfortunately I keep getting distracted by regular Self Insert, which is going great by the way, so it’s driving me nuts.

So, new Self Insert goodness in June. Elfsekai is… uh… well… yeah. I hit a roadblock. I’m trying to describe the Elf Village and I really need it to be perfect. So. Writer’s block. Canon SI is already a third done, though, so I’ll get back to working on it ASAP.

I’ve actually thought a lot about the meta of the story, too. Elfsekai, I mean. Because yes, I want this to be more than just h...

Morning all! How we doing? Take a look at some brand new Elfsekai, coming soon(ish).

No, I didn’t forget the update yesterday. I just didn’t wanna spam you all.

So, the month is drawing to a close. It was a good month, too. I feel good that I finally got caught up on stuff. Blazing Trinity, in particular, has been sitting in the back of my head for a good long while now, so I’m happy to see the back of that one. Next month we’re resetting the schedule and doing a Self In...

Blazing Trinity ch13

It's finally done! FINALLY! DONE!

I cannot believe it took me so damned long to do this chapter. I don't know what the hell happened. After rewrites and multiple edits, it's finally here. I still don't think it's my best work, but... hey. It's done. And the next chapter will be the conclusion of the Lyn Story! I was gonna finish it here, but... ya know, thirteen is unlucky lol. 

But, geez, this really took actual months to get done! I don't think I've had so much tro...

Morning, all! I can’t remember if I shared this section of the Naga Apocryphal Tale I’ve been dabbling with or not. I’m pretty sure I did share it on Discord… Wellp. Anyway. Hope it gets a laugh out of you all.

Some of you may notice this update is a few days late. I’ve done this on purpose, because today is my thirtieth birthday. And I did not plan to live this long, so I do not know what to do now. So, I ate a doughnut shaped like a narwhal to numb the exi...
