Spring Cleaning?

'Sup peeps? Recently I updated 'Wolf Bones' and you're all chomping at the bit. I'm thinking about rewriting it or just taking it down. I rarely rewrite whole stories; I don't like having to do things twice, repetition can be boring as all hell and variety is the spice of life. Needless to say: keep a lookout. I've got a fuckton on my plate at the moment. I've got all these ideas bouncing around in my funny little noggin, and I'm trying to write them all down so I can keep track and perhaps expand on them when I have the chance. My left brain (that's the creative half for you people who skimp on neuroscience) hates me, I swear. And the next chapter of Howl is coming, I know it's slow going but if I wrote it too fast it'd end up too short. Thinking out the details works better for not just me (the writer) but for you guys (the readers)...even though there are only six of you and only two-thirds of my audience actually reads this blog...Don't get mad at me if you're falling behind on what's what.

Meanwhile in FanFiction news....

I updated my Push/Twi crossover a couple weeks ago, and I know it's slow going. I'm turning into a slow, meticulous writer like one George R.R. Martin. Also my collaborator hasn't gotten back to me regarding the next chapter of Practical Magick so I think she's been kidnapped. We might end up taking it down considering our chapters are far too short for us to take this long to update. If they were longer then we'd have an excuse...anyway, we're doing what we can. Between the original fics that I take forever to churn out and then my uncooperative left brain...I need to find a new TV show for inspiration. I'm thinking 'The Tomorrow People', sounds pretty legit.




Happy reading!

February Time!

Greetings, readers! I know I'm a bit behind on updates and really I don't have much of an excuse other than the fact that my imagination doesn't want to cooperate. Especially when it comes to Push Me, Shove Me. I've got ideas for future chapters but I'm talking way future chapters, instead of the transition shit I'm attempting to write now. Things are a bit slow going, but I'm working on it, I promise. Hopefully updates will get more frequent as The Counterfeit Moon comes to an end and speaking of that...

Only two more chapters left! (If the epilogue counts as a chapter...) And then the tales of our favorite Reaper and her vampire come to an end. But not entirely to an end! Howl is the Fictionpress version of The Artificial Sun, more slow-going to build and a bit more of an elaborate weaving where the parameters of the Reaper world are more set in stone. Try looking it up, perhaps you'll like it. Though only four people actually read this blog so...


On another note! Luna Luce has made me a banner for The Artificial Sun and a banner for The Counterfeit Moon. 'Tis not exactly conventional, but I suppose it works. Just click on the link, since the actual photo won't show up.

New Works in the New Year

Recently I've begun to post information about my original works on here and now Howl has been posted on FictionPress.net and Wattpad. I've had this idea nagging at my brain since last summer after reading the entirety of the Game of Thrones series and I know what you're thinking: What in the hell do werewolves have to do with political intrigue and dragons? Well....I have no idea, but it sounded cool at the time. Also I've been juggling with making The Artificial Sun into an original, expanding on the Reaper world and making it far more elaborate. Well, I decided, why the hell not combine all the things?! So...here I am and here this is. Howl sets the stage for the parameters of this world I've created, attempting to combine historical accuracy with supernatural elements, and is the story of a Lycan named Zain. He's the last of his bloodline, taken from his home at the tender age of seven and forcibly put into the service of a ruthless enemy, trained to be a world class assassin. When Azura enters his life, he's in for one hell of an eye-opener.

Wolf Bones, originally titled The Paranormal, is the story of a girl named Jade with a rather...different gift. She can see ghosts. Incredibly intelligent but raised by her abusive alcoholic aunt and treated like a pariah at school, Jade's only goal in life was to get the hell out. Until a new guy transfers into her school (and is immediately popular) then everything goes to shit. Her aunt dies, she has to find a new job and is taken in by a family of werewolves. And why won't Eric's sexy-as-all-hell brother Lucien stop dogging her out?...er, no pun intended. Jade will learn entirely new lessons about her past, her powers and love.






I think that's about it...enough of my ramblings!

Happy New Year

'Tis the year 2014, and most of us are still alive. (Unfortunately 'most of us' includes those people that you desperately want to smack in the face with a brick...you know who you are). The holidays are over and done with: thank the Heavens that we're unscathed. I don't know what it is with people during the holidays but it's like they contract a temporary mental disease that makes them lose all rational thought, common sense and what little intelligence they have. In the new year, I've decided to have this blog encompass all of my works, both original and Fanfiction.

In Fanfiction news: The Counterfeit Moon is very near to completion. Only a handful of chapters to go and I'm still debating on the epilogue or not. Practical Magick is slow going, trust me Maaji and I are working on it, but RL's got her by the ankles and I'm pullin' as hard as I can but...it just ain't giving. Bear with us on that, please. Push Me, Shove Me is slow going as well but I'm working on an update for that too. Chapter 13 is coming, never fear!

May I present my newest piece: Howl. It's an original work that started out as a very very convoluted Fanfic...and then a spark of inspiration came about and changed all of that. If I had gone along with my original plan it would have fizzled out. Howl takes the Reaper world from TAS and TCM and makes it much larger, bigger and far more scarier. At least....I hope it does. I'm still wingin' it.










Happy reading!

Winter Update

Hello all! Christmas is on the way, only five days from now actually and I don't know about you guys but the holidays are always an awkward time of year for me. But onto other things, such as story stuff.

The Counterfeit Moon is coming to a close soon. Only a few chapters are left, including the epilogue (which I might make a little longer than normal chapters). I hope to have more time on my hands between now and the spring, so hopefully more projects will get done. Heh heh heh. And I know that a few of you have been asking me for spin-offs of TCM, such as one involving our favorite psychic and her demon friend, but unfortunately it'll not come to fruition. The story is so AU anyway, writing a story about Nim and Z would have to be posted on FicPress. I have other projects on my plate as well, such as the rewrite of Legionary amongst other things. Now, me and Maaji ask that you bear with us as we know the updates on Practical Magick are slow-going and trust us, we're working on it. She's got a fuckton on her plate and I'm moving...again. We're both a couple of busy bees.

So...I restarted The Dominance of Fate (Domia abr Wyrda if you prefer the elvish title) in the hope of improving on it and making it better, along with better blending the two universes of Twilight and The Inheritance Cycle only to find that...I don't really like it. I ran out of inspiration and I've overall just given up. Usually I'm a trooper when it comes to this sort of thing, but it would end up being half-assed and you all deserve better than that. Which is why I'm taking it down. There'll be other projects, but I don't think this one was meant to be.

A Fall Update

Hello all! I know, it's been a while. Last you heard from me was a bit of news regarding Legionary. The next update is coming soon I promise. Now, the minority of the majority of the ten of you that consistently read what I post have noticed a new work up, called 'Practical Magick'. It's a collab between myself and an author named Maaji Emeree....we haven't updated in three months. And I know that those of you who liked it really wish for us to update. And we've got a crapload on our plates, plus RL has kidnapped Maaji. So bear with us, we're working on it.

The Counterfeit Moon is coming along swimmingly, quite a bit of chapters left. I haven't updated Push Me, Shove Me in a while either so I'm working on that.

Also the Dominance of Fate has been placed on a hiatus for now. It's been a long time coming, my inspiration isn't coming as easy with the story. I still have to hash out some of the plot points and such. I hope to be posting again before Christmas. But at the rate that I'm going being so focused on The Counterfeit Moon and Legionary, it might not happen. So search for new chapters after the New Year. October is looking to be pretty darn hectic, cross your fingers, wish both me and Maaji luck and I will talk to you soon lovelies.









Peace, love, teehee!

New Artwork

So, as you may have noticed, Legionary's sportin' a new look. I like it much better than the last one. I might change it spontaneously based on what I can find. I played around with a texture, considered putting in blood-spattered text but I took the blood-spatter out. So I ended up with this. Chapters five and six are coming, trust me. Bear with me, I'm workin' on 'em. But chapter six is giving me some particularly difficult time translating from mental creativity tank to onscreen document. It's a Jasper chapter, so I want to make sure I get this right or else I'm fucked. Thank God I'm not adding music or I'd be killing myself right about now. So far, Legionary is at a good (infuriating for the select few of you) pace. Trust me, more mind-fuckery and adventure is in store. Hell, I might throw some sex in there if I get enough shouts.



Until next time!
