《Dungeon Instinct》Life, Dungeons, and Stories...
Advertisement
So yeah... Sorry about not posting much lately, but "LIFE" got in the way and i figured that any spare time i had would be better spent writing whatever i could than making a post about why i haven't been writing...
I know, bad AaronDragon... But hey, i'm here now and that's what counts right?
anyway anyone who's followed me and my stories for any significant amount of time will know that i have this sort of... Well... Let's call it an "Attention Problem". Basically i'll start a new story and then just sort of move on after the first few chapters...
I'm going to start making a serious effort to stop doing that now. I figure it's not far to you (the readers), the story, or myself. So instead of doing all this story mapping and outlining only to stop working on it on the second chapter and going on to start something new where i just repeat that process i'm going to cut that loop off right here and now.
I'm saying it here and now, from now into the foreseeable future (at the very least the rest of 2017) i'm going to stick to only 3 stories. i've started them, commited to writing them, and now i just need to be a good little author and finish the damn job by writing them out until they end.
Honestly, i'm a bit annoyed with myself so i know that all of you must be annoyed as hell with me...
So here's what's getting worked on and around when i think i'm going to be working on it:
Dungeon Instinct: Fall 2017 (May move forward or back depending on when i can find the week it'll take to reread and edit out the first volume...)
The Shadow Dungeon: Currently, but subject to random breaks (I plan to work on this off and on along side the other two projects.)

Night Saga: Spring and summer, i'm hopping i can eke out at least half the first book in that time. maybe even finish the entire full book out entirely...
So that's that. i've already started to train myself into focusing solely on these stories and just ignoring all the other wonderful and tempting ideas that pop into my head. I'm also going to try and put out a chapter every two weeks at the very least, but i cant make any serious promises about that because as this last month has shown me sometimes life steps in and just utterly wrecks any plans or schedule you may have... Plus i'm trying to get back to releasing longer chapters so it takes more time to write them out...
...
Yep... so that's basically it... Just wanted to let you guys know what's up, and give you some reassurance that now you can commit to a story without worrying about when i'll lose interest in it and stop writing it.
...Oh and if you're reading this on RRL then i'd like to say that this post will be removed as soon as i begin working on D.I. again. oh and please answer the poll...

Dreamland
Dolores is a lucky girl with a high-level avatar in a very popular game. She did not level it up; she got it through some fortunate circumstances. She is not interested in fighting and levelling; all she wants is to have some fun and follow her own fantasies. If only there would not be all those idiots who intend to kill her, capture her, or simply use her. And those flaws in the game! Wait, what? Those pesky game characters now appear in the real world? And they can do magic? How did this happen? Adding to her troubles, her crush does not even look at her. As Dolores tries only to survive and hide between 'normal' people, she encounters stranger and stranger things that force her hand and, in the end, she has the answers to a lot of questions. It is a slow-developing story. I had a lot of fun writing it and hope to share it with you, dear reader if you also enjoy it. On the other hand, putting it in an acceptable form requires much work and energy. I intend to bring it to its end and not let it unfinished. I hate it when I encounter unfinished stories, so I understand the feeling. This is not a classical isekai story. There is travel between the two worlds, and the game world seems to be so very real... well, this is one plot of the story. This is not an MMORP game story. Part of the action happens inside a game world, but it is treated as a real world. Updates on a weekly basis, at least Monday and Friday, with additional bonus chapters as time and energy allow. Cover art: White Flower as A Dark Fairy by Darkrealmsmaiden Yolanda gracefully allowed me to use her dark fairy as cover. There are many more beautiful works of art to be discovered at her site: https://www.deviantart.com/darkrealmsmaiden Additional Grammar Trigger Warning: As a non-native speaker, I do my best. Unfortunately, this is not enough for people with a low tolerance for warped sentences and... they may want to skip the story :( Well, you have been warned :) I appreciate it when a reader points out a sentence that needs rework. That may spare a follow-up reader some pain and helps me understand where my English grammar problems are. * We thought we made the best game in Earth's history We thought we made the best interfaces ever seen We thought we made it - lifelike But it far exceeded our expectations. Dolores, I hope you're happy now. I hope you're alive now...
