Not Dead, just… IDK, Life Happens (Patreon)

2021 was very odd.

I’m not dead, I didn’t catch Covid, nothing truly dramatic happened in my life, and I can’t really say why I stopped posting or writing.

I think since September I’ve been saying to myself that I need to get back into writing. Then Life Happens, stuff needs doing, minor emergencies happen, more stuff occurs, it’s too late in the day, I’m too tired, I just don’t feel up to it, the words are in my head but can’t get them out, those kinds of things.

Those of you who have stuck around:

Thank You.

I haven’t given up on the stories about Maya and San, but I need to get my head back into regularly writing. So far I have two new ideas that have been chewing away at my thoughts.

1 - Kill System Engaged; it’s a story about a not so nice dude who’s caught up in the whole system apocalypse. This is brought on by some deities who want to screw around with humanity, but also are placing bets on champions; famous and infamous people across the globe. Basically an OP character in a monster filled world, whose powers are based off killing things as one of the Death Deities takes a shine to him.

2 - The Scramble or The Fractured Worlds - an isekai where scores of worlds are stirred and scrambled together. Dal and Samira find themselves in one such world, in the middle of the woods, inside of a self storage warehouse. The world is a chaotic place, monsters, magic, and a system that allows for leveling and all that. This one would be more slice of life, not grand trying to save the world or anything like that. I think slow and steady on this one, just moving along and exploring the world and magic and that stuff.

This time I am really editing the first IDGM book into something that can be sold as a novel, most likely on Kindle Unlimited or such. The bones of the story are fine, just some of the fleshy bits need to be tenderized into something palatable.

I just need to keep chugging along and not letting a writing block crisis spiral into months of not updating.

Again, for those who have stuck it out. Thank you. I appreciate the confidence you have in me.

I know its a bit too little too late, but I’m trying to get back my head back into writing and doing what I’ve always loved.
