Not dead

Just wanted to chime in and let you all know I'm not dead, just having trouble writing due to real-world stuff. The end of 2020 had a bunch of things going on, one of which being my internet cutting out not once, but twice, and for multiple days each time (I was distraught), which is not good when your primary job is online.

Hopefully I'll have the next chapter up sooner rather than later. Either way, I've put a pause on donations for now, so hopefully it didn't charge anyone this month...

Interlude Ideas

So, I'm going to be trying RoyalRoad's writathon which I've only ever managed to complete once, back when this story was new. It's a lot harder to write fast and coherently with an established story, so if (let's be honest, when) I get stuck, what kind of interludes are you guys most interested in reading? Characters? Locations around Fortress City or United North America? Other? Let me know in the comments.

Imitator Ch3

 

[A/N: this one is super short, as it was never finished...]


Eastern Apartment Sprawl:

That had been quite illuminating. The encounter with the ‘police’ had given me lots of new data to analyze. Most important was that I had confirmed that more than one human had unexplainable abilities. This was a large relief, if multiple humans had such strange abilities I was less likely to draw ire for displaying my own. In fact both my disguise and...

Imitator Ch2

 

[A/N: There's some stuff in this chapter that could be considered spoilers. Mostly it's an alternate fate for a character that I haven't decided if I will use in the main book. Maybe it will happen eventually, maybe it won't. If you're fine with knowing alternate universes read on.]

Imitator Interlude 1

 [A/N: An interlude as the second chapter? What was I thinking?]

New Santanio, Northside Police Department: 

Detective Peter Barnes was having trouble deciding if today was good or bad. On one hand, it was a Saturday, and he had been dragged in mainly to help go over paperwork (which he despised)  this close to Odd Summer.

On the other hand, someone had brought in donuts.

Currently trudging thro...

Imitator Ch1

 [A/N: I hadn't actually thought of the title at this point, so the title was just Imitator. I came up with the current title later on when I was trying to think of something that sounded more in line with the genre. Basically went something along the lines of, "Super Heroes... something that sounds more like super heroes... super villains... super mutants... super monster? He's a monster... imitating a human, and he's working as a... oh, duh."]

Status and Prototype Chapters

Hey all, I'm not dead. My job started back up (online only), there was a slight COVID scare with my sibling (turns out it was a normal cold, she's fine), and there was a Korean book offer that I agonized over and finally had to decline. So, super busy. The current chapter is taking longer than normal because of all that, but I wanted to give you guys something, so I'm going to post some of the original chapters that I wrote a whole year before the NaNoWriMo that started Super Minion (there's ...
