《Death: Genesis》An Announcement (Not a Chapter)
Advertisement
Don't worry - I won't tease you all like this again anytime soon, but I wanted to announce a couple of things. First, I just started my Patreon. I know it's not a huge deal because everyone who writes on this site seems to have one, but I just wanted to get the information out there for those of you who care. You can support my work by signing up for one of three tiers. The first, Elite, only costs a dollar, but you really don't get much for it, either. Just think of it as a monetary high-five. The second tier, Boss, costs five dollars, and it will allow you to read five chapters ahead. Finally, the third tier, Monarch, cost ten dollars and allows you to read ten chapters ahead.
I also want to note that when I reach certain milestones, I will increase the Patron rewards. For instance, when I get to 100 Patrons, I'll increase the Boss tier to ten chapters ahead and the Monarch tier to fifteen. And I intend to keep that pattern going (increasing the rewards at important milestones) until you're all reading fifty chapters ahead and I'm posting chapters five days a week.
The reason I'm structuring things this way is simple: in order to make this writing thing work properly, I need to devote a lot of time towards it. That takes away from the time I can spend on my normal job. I work from home, so my schedule is pretty flexible, but it's all a function of time management. However, the more income generated from this endeavor, the more time I can invest in writing. So, given that, I'd be able to pass that benefit onto you all.
I should also note that if the Patreon reaches the level of success I hope for, it will allow me to also work on a few other stories I've mapped out. But that's down the road a bit. Either way, Death: Genesis will be my first priority until I've told the story I want to; the others will be side projects that won't see the light of day for a while.

Anyway, I won't take up any more of your time. I hope you'll all continue reading, and if you think my work is worth your support, head over to my Patreon and help me reach my goals. The link is both at the bottom of this page (the big orange-ish button) and at the top.

After launching a suicide attack on an army of zombies, he finds himself back in school, the day the virus first came in contact with humanity. He now has his former weak body and only the knowledge of his future to survive the apocalypse (which he survived once without anyways) without losing anyone important to himself.

The Ingress Estate
Jonathon Eucole. Soldier. Scholar. Now an Initiate, the dedication without dedication, he finds himself both prisoner and master of an arcane edifice, the Ingress Estate, which can neither be escaped, nor controlled; only diverted, maintained, and pacified. This is a gothic fantasy story, set in a world in which gods and the afterlife are not only real and known, but were both established in living memory of some of the inhabitants after millennia of arcane warfare with the being who constructed the mundane reality the humans occupy. But this isn't the story of those who colonized the afterlife at the cost of their own humanity, but a somewhat more ordinary man, in somewhat extraordinary circumstances. This is also a LitRPG-lite, which means there's a system of sorts, fragments of which can be observed through Jonathon's eyes. Don't expect level-up screens, or statistics, or indeed numbers much at all, beyond those the inhabitants of the world itself apply to understanding their own reality. It pretty much doesn't matter to the story, I mention it so those who don't want to read LitRPG at all can successfully avoid it here. I don't have any particular plan here, just some ideas inherent in the genre. This is a character concept I toyed with some years ago; an old man, bright of mind but weighed down into apathy, both by his past and his responsibilities for a terrible estate that cannot be left without stewardship. Don't expect any kind of overarching plot or story, because that's really not what this is about. Also don't expect much dialogue. Or character development. Or much of anything, really, because I've planned nothing in the way of an actual book, here. Other relevant information, if you've read this far for some reason: The MC isn't super-powerful to begin with, and probably never will be. He's a veteran with some useful skills, and the insight on how to use them, so can deal with the world's ordinary threats reasonably well, but not too much beyond that. --- Currently on hiatus, as currently the story has a rather poor ratio of effort-to-personal-payoff. I may return to this once I have a clear idea of how to get the stories where I want them. I've started a more standard LitRPG using the same system. But if you like intelligence characters who cleverly min-max their classes, it probably isn't the story for you; it's the story of a rather ordinary guy who winds up in a very similar universe.

Cryptmother: Bride of the Dungeon Core
A tongue in cheek tale about a silly little necromancer and her dungeon-based woes...Graverra Graeme always knew she was destined for more than the average adventurer, even as a low level Necromancer in a realm where such practices are typically frowned upon. When she catches the eye of a lonely dungeon core she isn’t surprised… At first. Offered the chance to raise the dead and rise to her full potential but at the cost of her personal freedoms, Graverra navigates her new life Cryptmother; Bride of the dungeon core. Started as part of HereThereBeTreasure’s Fast Food Front Page Challenge, aka the Trash Race, continuing because I’m having fun, experimenting with some things, and Graverra needs her big goth castle dammit. While this is now tagged romance, it’s not a healthy one! Who knew throwing in with the first core to pay you any attention wasn’t grounds for a healthy relationship… While I plan to keep things light, ‘two impulsive power hungry users have to work together’ is kind of the backbone of this story. Consider this the official ‘toxic romance’ tagging. It’s the author’s first time building a dungeon too, bear with us 💖Dungeon Building begins around Chapter 10Dungeon Running to begin soon after Chapter 20 Now updating Wednesdays
