Chapter 184 – Afterword – Mikkei

We’re all finished here! I just want to say a few parting words before I mark this story as completed!

THANK YOU to everyone that has made it this far! This is a bit of an unusual story for RoyalRoad so I appreciate every single reader here that I managed to get! In the beginning I thought I might put this story on Amazon but I decided against it. I really like the serial webnovel format more than the e-book format.

I started working on this story back in the spring of 2020. Back then, I was still struggling to write consistently. This project helped me a lot in that, and I gained a lot of meaningful experience from it all! I think my next stories will be even better thanks to everything that I learned. I also appreciate all the feedback and comments that I received!

I want to give a special THANK YOU to Erulluvatar! They were my very first comment on this fiction, and my very first review! Since then, Eru has been supporting me and commenting on most of my chapters! I’m not sure I would’ve managed to finish without such encouragement! Every comment I’ve received means a lot to me! Thank you!

Also, quick shout out to Restia985 for my second review! Thank you very much!

I’m grateful to be finished, but also sad, in a way. Writing this story has become routine to me and it feels weird to remove it from my schedule. I’ve been working on other projects too, but nothing approaches the amount of time I invested into the Killing Cat.

I’m not exactly sure which project I want to publish next. I’ve got two main projects I’m working on. I’m working on a Colonization/Post-Apocalyptic Sci-fi story and a separate Reincarnation/Fantasy story.

I did have the Holy Candle story that I wrote during one of the Writathon events, but I decided that I didn’t like how that story began and wanted to rework it. Instead, I combined a lot of my ideas from the Holy Candle into my new fantasy story.

1st other project:

A Fall From Space

Is a story about attempting to recolonize Earth. For generations humans live in space following that aftermath of a global nuclear war. The story is about the main character (Hitch) being sent down to earth as part of a colonization project, but the landing goes very wrong, and he’s forced to try surviving in the wilds alongside his robotic companion.

This story was originally published on Kindle Vella, but I removed it after a while. I was planning to publish on RoyalRoad, but I don’t know if that’s what I want to work on.

2nd other project:

Payo’s Purgatory

Is a reincarnation story about a main character who is being punished for decisions he made in his past life. The MC (Payo) starts a new life in a dangerous world alongside the mischievous being (Alice) that sent him there in the first place. Payo plays this demon’s little game only to learn that the consequences of his actions (or inaction) have more impact than he expected.

***

Not sure which I’d like to make first. I’m much further in A Fall From Space since I’ve mostly been working on that in the background of The Killing Cat. I feel like Payo’s Purgatory may do better on Royal Road though. Also, a lot of my original concepts from Holy Candle were put into Payo’s Purgatory instead. I’m interested in writing both stories.

Anyways, thanks for reading my Afterword! I hope everyone has a great day! I plan to do some editing updates for The Killing Cat eventually! Please give me a look in the future!

Peace!
