VoC: B1 — 16. A Little Companion

The bear cub settled his head comfortably in Damon’s lap, occasionally nuzzling against his hand; he was surprisingly gentle for a creature that could sprout defensive quills at will.

VoC: B1 — 15. Prisoner by Design

- Day 4 -

Cold teeth carried Sophia through passages that sang with the absence of warmth, [Perception] feeding her fractured mind as she drifted in limbo.

VoC: B1 — 14. Royal Masquerade

Struggling to put the earlier event behind her, Aria stepped out in front of the Grand Library of Bluerise. It was everything she’d hoped it would be and more as she ascended the marble steps and entered its imposing entrance.

VoC: B1 — 13. Masks and Masters

Lady Ashcroft moved through the establishment with the fluid grace of someone who belonged because she did. Past the animal enclosures, she entered the section that housed the indentured servants. The air changed the moment she stepped through.

Release Support

Hmm. I want to release the public chapters on Patreon for VoC before they go to RR, but during this launch period, I need the traffic on RR to boost numbers.

So, I'm going to have to stop releasing the public ones on patreon until the launch period is over. I need the clicks to better boost the odds to go to rising stars. =\

The best thing for RR novels is for every patron to:

  1. Go to the fiction.

  2. Rate.

  3. Follow/Favorites.

  4. Com...

UE Rewrite: B5 — 13. Fractured Reunion

The silence that followed their joined hands stretched like molten glass, beautiful and burning in equal measure.

Tiffany—both versions—stood frozen in the moment, orange witchfire still dancing between their interlaced fingers while their shared soul resonated with a completeness that felt like drowning.

Veil of Chaos Is Public!

I've been working on this in the background with Val for weeks.

I have 85k words written so far, about 25 chapters.

It is probably one of my favorite series to write with how deep and expansive it is. I have so much already mapped out and planned.

Yes, I've been shifting chapters and trying to trim down my typical glacial pace, where some might even think it is too fast!

Please, tell me what you think!

I will be releasing a chapter every day until we reach Chapte...

Saturday Update

So, Val and I have been working on getting VoC ready for public release and its launch (cutting sections, reworking, and debating parts I’ve written).

I think we’ve got the core of it mostly ironed out. I needed a stronger hook and opening. I could trim parts to allow a smoother starting experience.

I’ve also taken some time to just reflect, which I haven’t done for a while. It helped me consider the various aspects of my other series and a break to think more about my ow...

I Hate Writing These Types of Posts:

It feels like I fail and am admitting defeat to an enemy—time.

TL;DR: I need about two weeks off. I'm feeling the stress of needing time off and the vice of getting further and further away from my goals.

FYI: Yes, I am coming back. I'm not stopping. I'm diverting my efforts over the next two weeks to get back on track!

I'm behind. A lot.

Val has finished editing ATM Vol. 2 and UE Vol. 4, and I still haven't found the time to find and develop artwor...
