《Just a Rock》Chapter 56: Another Career Change
Advertisement
The sculptor returned before the day was up and felt down about the condition of his work. It was the artist turned sculptor from before, the one who terrorized the shore's denizens and had his paper and easel ruined. Bad habits were hard to kick and he slammed his toes into the prism after his work was once again in disrepair in his absence. With a cry of pain, he hobbled on one foot before falling over.
His shoulder just so happened to brush up against the rock, pushing it away a few feet. The ground in this spot was a bit closer to the treeline and had a bit more shade with less grass wrapping their clingy stems to the rock's greatness. One of the beetles that had found the rock's crack to be a suitable escape until the sunset, rose to the occasion and attacked the sculptor.
Feeling the scurry of tiny feet upon his neck, the sculptor began dancing with his hands. He jumped into the air then let off some very down to earth moves. Even after the beetle had long fallen off, he remained standing, moving his legs and arms in somewhat of a chaotic rhythm. An epiphany struck him and with no audience other than the rock, which didn't count, the sculptor danced while humming a tune.
No longer was he a sculptor, but a dancer or maybe a singer even. Though he resembled more of a clown at this current moment. Someone who constantly fumbled everything he tried for the sake of comedy, going from one trick to another to keep things fresh. Technically he was still an artist, just a different kind.

The Abyssal Dungeon
The world of Vol, a huge, bountiful plane where the only constant is life, in its many, many forms. One such form is a dungeon core, a peculiar little gemstone, and the focus of our attention. Watch as this otherwise unremarkable gem awakens in one of the most resplendant places in Vol, an aptly named Mana Reef, and how it turns its simple hole in the ocean floor into something truly unique, all while the rest of the world is forced to deal with its growth. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is my first venture into writing for fun, and I'm hoping to keep this running until I run out of juice. With that said, I very much enjoy dungeon core novels, and wanted to do one a bit outside the norm. Hope you enjoy! If you want to come stop by the discord, I know we'd all be more than happy to welcome you! https://discord.gg/pcR5g5XX8h

To live is to Dream (LitRPG; First Draft)
A new Power has come into the World and seeks to change it. Being on the last dregs of sanity and full of alcohol Daniel West receives an opportunity to seek revenge. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To live is to Dream is the second book of the Just a Dream series. You do not have to read the first to enjoy the second, but there will be recurring characters along the line. The first book features Mir, a man that dislikes how his current world appears and hence wants to change it. The second book will feature other people and how the changes implemented by Mir affect their lives. For those interested in my first book, it's easy to find it. Just beware that with the first book, it was my first time writing and there are a lot of grammar errors despite lots of editing, at least at the beginning of the book. The cover was done by Lmarief. I had requested something bizarre and she delivered. I have even used it as part of the story since her interpretation of my imagination was a bit different. Still, I loved it. As a thank you gift, I posted a link to her profile here for others who want a unique cover. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/220043
