《The Contestant》Short Hiatus
Advertisement
So I have been busy/had a major case of writer's block over the last week. I am going to take a short hiatus of two to three weeks to try and work through it. I also want to build up a reserve of at least 3 or 4 chapters so if this happens again, I can continue to release them.
It takes me on average about 5 hours to write a chapter. I've done some in as short a time as 4 hours, and some it took me closer to 8. That doesn't include research time(yes, I actaully do research things lol)
Anyways, for the last couple of weeks, I have written and released chapters on the same day, and I think the stress of that has caused me to stop enjoying writing.
I also have quite a few things piling up at work, so I am busy with that.
I know frequent chapter releases on Royalroad are the biggest draw for an author, but I just can't keep up with the pace of a lot of authors here. Releasing 2 chapters a day, 5 days a week like some authors is insane.

Life of a Core
After a disembodied voice had told him he was what amounted to an exceptionally talented rock, it had been hard to not let it go to his non-existent head. Until, random chance had decided to give him a square kick in the minerals. Which had in turn forced him to fend for himself in an unknown land, all while he attempted to make sense of his place in the world. Truthfully though, all he had really wanted to do from the start had been to bury himself a hundred feet below the ground and be left to his own devices. Yet, for one reason or another, nobody ever seemed willing to leave the dungeon-building core alone long enough to actually make one. Each chapter will average around two to three thousand words, the release schedule is still a WIP but you should expect the first six chapters to be released over the next six days. This is planned out as a dungeon building fiction, but don't expect it right off the bat! The story is a depiction of the everyday adventures (alongside an overarching plot) of what I imagine a dungeon core would experience when thrust into a random environment where everything and everyone tried to covet or eat him. I also really enjoy reading the comments and reviews people leave and would love to get some reader involvement with the story itself, likely through polls at the end of each chapter. I hope you enjoy my story! (If you feel like some of the characters seem familiar, you may have read some older work I wrote a while back under a different account. If you happen to be one of my old readers and recognize the similarities, I'm happy to have you back!)
