《Salted Shores》Dr. French
Advertisement
Dr. French called up his caretaker and the police on February 2nd. He had purchased all his Maine property on a recommendation from another doctor 20 years ago. It was a steal compared to today's prices and now his best destination for retirement. The place that kept him going back to run the hospital every day at his important job.
He had a vivid imagination and filled it with plans for summer parties, nothing-fancy wine and cigars by the ocean, day trips to the marina, and the newly modernized golf course that still managed to be nothing-fancy. The fresh lobster he would be putting in his mouth moments after it had taken a dip in a bowl of hot butter. Now, things are becoming fancy.
He needed to make sure everything was under control. He had four years left to go, and he wasn't about to let his grand old nest egg be jeopardized. The caretaker had become too decrepit for his job, and so he was demoted into doing whatever unnecessary small tasks he felt like taking on around the property as a reward for years of service.
The new caretaker was an ex United States Navy Seal. A man who had become too damaged from combat to be able to form close relationships with others. He would live alone in the guest house. Fully disciplined in the art of living off the land in any tundra, he would chop the wood for the big stone fireplace, hunt game year-round, grow food in the gardens, and fish a five-trap license out of Dr. French's small boat. Now the Dr. had full time access to fresh fancy lobsters.
"I hope you've found my estate sufficiently accommodating," French said over video chat.
"Yes Sir" said his henchman as he stood behind a fresh pile of chopped spruce tossed in a pile next to the guest outhouse.

Rise of an Undead in a Fantasy World
Have you ever wondered what would happen if an undead being that doesn't know what it is like to be alive got free will? What would that undead creature do? How would they think? How would they view the world around them? Would they see life as futile and conquer the world, making it a lifeless danger zone to all living beings? Well, none of that matters, because that's not happening. Our main character is your average gamer from the modern world, yada yada yada... gets transported to a fantasy world through obscure means, blah blah blah... you know how this works. What separates him from the masses, however, are his views on ethics, and world politics. ... Oh, and the fact that he doesn't need to breathe. Message From Author! Accept?: Yes No This is only my second novel, so keep that in mind. I will try to keep the quality of the story to an acceptable level. This means something that I, myself would read. The quantity, however, may put some people off. Adding onto the whole "villainous lead" thing, I will make sure to have the character develop into that perfect little villain over time, instead of starting him out as a bloodthirsty murder-hobo. Of course, there will still be a lot of murdering and he may be a hobo for some of it, but it will mostly not be out of malice in the very early chapters. Last but not least, I have decided there will not be a defined release schedule for this, as I have lost interest in forcing myself to upload x amount of times a week. I will upload whenever I get a good idea, and take my time. That is, if I even feel like writing in the first place. Instead of taking breaks from this novel to do my own thing, I will take breaks from my daily life to post on here. Also, I'm lazy. Thanks for reading, and if you're alright with everything above, feel free to give it a read, and without further ado, have a good one! - Your Author P.S.: I will have little to no romance in the story, as I can't bring myself to writing it, so you don't have to worry about harems.
