Hi guys! I've been sick. I still am sick, actually.
However, I finally feel well enough to really work-work today, so I'm getting my shit together and hopefully posting some new chapters today and/or tomorrow.
Status:
Ball of Light is written, but editing is going super slowly. I think I may have to relegate this to more of a secondary project, so chapters will keep coming out, just a little more slowly.
First Song 2 is written, and I've started e...
This cover has had a few issues so far, but this version is starting to look more like we would like it.
There are still going to be some changes, but you guys can see kind of the general look.
Whew. This writing stuff is a lot of work!
Hi all.
This has been a pretty wacky month for me. Like... 3 weeks ended up being really spotty for work.
I had intended to be done with Ball of Light by now, but I just cleared chapter 3. :/
I'm also really jonesing to work in Nora and First Song.
TL:DR, I am going to try working on all 3 stories at once starting tomorrow. The first couple chapters of Nora 3 should be up within the next few days.

So I'm a moron and accidentally posted this in the Patreon for folks helping build GameLitRPG. sigh.
Anyway, Asgard Awakening is live!
Hi all. I've had a crappy day...literally. I woke up to my septic backing up through a toilet, so I got to spend a few hours dealing with that, throwing stuff away, and cleaning poo water.
Awesome.
In other news, I have deleted the majority of Asgard Awakening posts. That story should be going live either within the next few days, so you can watch for the announcement.
As for new chapters, I am going to be posting more First Song 2, Nora 3, and Evolution of...
I just penned this but I kind of like it.
Would you be interested in the book if you were new to my work?

After years of slavery, subjected to torments of body and spirit by the inhuman Kin, Travis Sterling can barely recall his old life. Memories of Earth, and of disappointing his family barely seem real anymore.
But even without the occasional voice in his head, Trav knows he’s different. A vast amount of rune crafting knowledge has ...

I think this turned out awesome. What do you all think?

Hi all.
I am going to be posting a couple chapters tonight. So I guess that's good. I'm just letting you know that I'm going to be down for a while.
I managed to lose a knife today. Sucker fell out of my pocket at some point. It was the knife at the bottom right of this pictures. They're actually known for having a shitty pocket clip, but I rarely carry it and it was a special occasion.
It was very expensive, but the rarity is what really gets met. &n...
I'm embarrassed that I have been posting more status updates than chapters lately, but here we are. I want to keep you guys in the loop.
My personal life has had a lot of changes in the past few weeks, and I got hit with a little bit of, "Where is my muse?" This is always a (not) fun game.
All that said, I've still been busy, just on other things. Unfortunately, there is only one of me...until I master the dark arts and form a homunculus. First Song is like....
Hey all! Sorry for the radio silence recently. I was on vacation, and now I'm finally back in the saddle.
I am going to be finishing Asgard Awakening within the next month or so, and we'll probably have Evolution of a Ball of Light out too. I need to kind of think about whether to change that title or not too, and source some artwork, so stay tuned for lots of questions for you all.
The writer of Ball of Light, A.R. Chen, is an old friend of mine from RRL days and...
Thank you, all of you for your encouragement and suggestions along the way.
I'm super, super proud of this book.
If you've already read it, I'd super appreciate if you'd leave a review.

Hey all
This is a heads up that updates will be scarce for about a week. I need to take care of some stuff that has been months in the making, and it takes priority.
However, I'll still be writing, so toward the end of the month, I'll have a few chapters up on Patreon of Project AA, and a new story that I'm publishing for a friend of mine. :)
I think you guys are going to be pleased.
...and of course, First Song is coming out in a day or two. That release ...
Thank you.
I was thinking today about what a great story First Song is, and how good of a book it will be when it's published. This got me thinking about all the factors that led to its creation, and one of them is definitely you guys.
Being on Patreon has helped me a ton creatively. To be honest, the money is nice, but not everything. I could probably write faster and make more money if I didn't have a Patreon to maintain. In fact, some other indie authors ...
So chapters are coming down in another day or two.
Heads up!
Before I woke up, I had a pretty crazy dream. Now as I drink my coffee and wake up, as a writing exercise, I think I will tell you all about it.
--------------------------------
I had a dream.
In my dream, I was a Xianxia style new immortal, ignorant of the magical world.
I walked the streets of Ohio, where large portions of a city had been given to nature to be a new park. Trees grew through the asphalt in places, and vines overran everything.
The land was...

This is a long blurb, but this is a weird story and I think it's appropriate.
Thoughts?

2018-09-08 11:39:30 +0000 UTC View PostFor all the writers in the community here, don't give up. I have come a long way over the last 20 years, and especially over the last 3.
I am going to share something I wrote in early 2016 for you guys.
Keep in mind, this was earlier the same year that Delvers came out. I actually wrote this before I started writing Delvers.
This was a short story written for a Wattpad contest. It's horrendous.
I'm not going to alter it in any way before shari...
Hey all,
Adom Publishing just picked up a new story by a really talented writer. The story is not mine, but I will be editing it for Adom, and posting the chapters here.
The story will be Evolution of a Ball of Light, a story I read and enjoyed on Royal Road some time ago.
This will probably begin mid September, so look forward to it!
Now it just needs a change to the lettering a bit...
2018-08-14 12:32:25 +0000 UTC View PostHi all!
I should be getting up the tiered Patreon posts later this week. I'm kind of all over the place right now.
I haven't forgotten about people I owe books to, either. Trust me, I'm not just lying around, listening to Ace of Base and counting flies. Yesterday I worked from the moment I got up at about 7:30am to when I went to bed at 1am.
That's normal for me.
GameLitRPG is about to go live, which is super exciting.

Do not want.

Outspan Foster did some art depicting the goddess from Noah's trippy death experience.

Hi all!
This is kind of an August state of the union sort of thing.
First off, thank you for being Patreon patrons. This year I decided to focus on growing my craft instead of paying the bills, and without you all, I might have had to invest in some bulk cup noodles.
Writing is expensive. My bills for art, editing, lawyer fees, promotion etc this year is more than I used to make in a year less than 10 years ago.
So while this year has not been a huge succe...
Nora 2 is out. Yup!

This is one of the last images an otherwise good artist sent me.
I'm beginning to wonder how many artists just can't do monster girls.
Anyway, I've terminated the project with that author--on to #4
