So, friends and amazing patrons, if you read The Last Prayer on Royal Road, you'll find that it's no longer there. Someone didn't like the ages of the cartoon characters and informed the moderators. So they deleted the story. The Last Prayer is still on FFNet and Ao3 if you want to continue reading it.
I'm currently 13K into the new chapter. It still needs some more before it's ready but not much longer. Thank you guys for being so patient.
I'm considering posting all 43 cha...

Hello to all you amazing people with hearts of gold. First, I am still writing. The current chapter of The Last Prayer is at 8k words. That's not a lot, but there's a reason, which is why I'm writing this little PSA.
Life stuff is still the same; work, family, friends, working out, the usual.
The delay is with the story. I admit, I hit a road block with TLP. I knew what I wanted to write, but none of it seemed good enough. This story is getting closer to the end. Let's face it, Na...

So, I have a very good job that I'm putting a lot of time and effort in. It hasn't left much room for writing. So, sadly, that means the next update will be delayed. I expect things to slow down soon and then I'll be able to write again. I still have my notebook so I'll write down ideas when I can. My apologies.

Well, today has been much more fun than I anticipated. Guys I want to thank you all for supporting me when you didn't have to, through my ups and downs, in sickness and in health. It still such an honor to have this connection to you guys. I want to be a successful writer so bad, and you guys give me the most encouragement. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you, thank you.
The Last Prayer: 7K into the next update. It's a fun chapter that pushes things forward.

I wish I had an update ready for today. Sadly, I'm 6K into the next update for The Last Prayer. It still needs more so it'll be a few weeks. A Deathly Contract is easier since the outline for the story is already written out. From Ruin is still kicking my ass. I'm reading old ff favorites of mine to try and get inspired and it only made me think of new stories to write, so it's still going to take some time I guess.
I hope you're all safe and healthy with loved ones during the holidays....

I know what you're thinking. Not only have I not finished The Last Prayer, but I'm also stuck on From Ruin. Why would I start another fic? The answer to that is the entire outline to this new HP ff is already done.
It's not a simple outline either. My outlines generally have dialogue and a bit of action written and this outline totaled out to 30 chapters and 86 thousand words. Each chapter only needs a few re-reads to polish up the flow of it. So unlike The Last Prayer and From Ruin,...

So I just posted the latest chapter but I wanted to share a bit more of why it took so long to write. I caught Covid, had to be admitted into the hospital, lost my job, and when I was released, my girlfriend and I broke up before losing the apartment. It's been a hellish couple of months. I'm living with my parents again while contemplating things.
I don't like excuses but I will say it's been hard to write. I'll have more time now so it should be easier. Thank you guys. I always ...

This novel, called Old Hand Steel, took 2+ years to write. Not necessarily because it was a complicated story, but because I only wrote a little bit each day. This was the warm-up story before I would write either From Ruin or The Last Prayer. I just finished the final draft and I'll be working on a moderately decent cover art.
This coincides with the next update of The Last Prayer(ch34) which should be this weekend. I just finished the 1st draft and it's nearly 15K words. After edits a...

First and foremost, I hope every one of my readers and their families are doing well, physically and financially. These are trying times and we have to take care of one another as best we can if we want to get through it.
So, I want to apologize as well as update everyone. I' incredibly sorry for the unforgivably long delay. It's so unprofessional and disappointing, it really gets to me. So, really, guys, I'm sorry.
The Reason: Since I'm deemed an essential employee, I've been wor...

Hey friends!
FINALLY!!!! ...I can get back to Naruto AND Harry Potter.
So this is my first novel. It was a learning experience. I want to share it with you guys while I work on the Cover, then publish. If you guys do notice areas of errors or ideas/concepts I could push a little more, please let me know in the comments below. Writing this has shown me a world of knowledge that I had not considered when I was writing fanfiction. I want to get better and I want to...

Hey friends,
I want to come clean about my situation. I need to take care of myself. After I lost my job, I should've looked for another(of a similar position) harder than I had. But I just wanted to sit and write. Now tho the bills are catching up and Christmas is coming around so I need to focus on stabilizing my financial life at the moment.
So, I apologize for the delay but at this point I need steady income. Don't get me wrong. I'm still writing. That's the second part ...

For those following my fic, The Last Prayer, I was nearly ready to update tomorrow when the program crashed on me, and when I reopened the file, all the words were converted into the # sign. 17.5K words.... gone. I feel dead.
So it's going to take me another two weeks or so to rewrite that.... I feel so gutted.

This pole will last up until I write her in the story, but should I make Tayuya(I assume you're all Naruto fans) an Uzumaki? I want more Uzumaki's in his clan and she has red hair, so, I'm curious to know your accumulated feeling to this.

Good day dear Patreons!
As my first ever Post, I thought I'd welcome everyone with the Lemon I cut out of Naruto and Tsunami. I'll likely never post it on FFNet, AO3, or RR, since my chapters are usually big to begin with and this scene was sooo long ago, it's pointless to post now.
I'd also like to reiterate, this patreon is only for monetary thank yous which is why I won't do anything more than $2 dollars or per update. Money isn't the goal but I understand wanting to support a ...
