《I Am Not The Main Character》*Announcement and Update*
Advertisement
So Today hasn't even really begun and it is already a huge day. I just finished college. Woo! (And uh-oh) I am officially moving out today and have no idea where life will take me next but being creative will always be my passion. So you can look forward to more stories and accompanying art. Which brings me to the reasons for the announcement.
everything. Don't worry. I have it planned out now, it is obviously changing a bit, but I think it is for the better.
2. I am now broke and jobless. I have no income as of now and need to sell off all my junk while I do job searching. What does this mean for you? Chapters may be irregular in their release (Not that there has been a lot of regularity). I want to thank you all for your understanding and patience. This also brings me to my third point!
3. I've adjusted my Patreon to be super friendly. You don't even have to be a patron to see new artwork! PEW-PewPew-PEW! (Shoots fireworks). My goal is to upload advance chapters on Patreon for any huge fans that can afford a little love and become a Patron.
4. MORE GOOD NEWS! I made some new art for this story. There are four thumbnails. They are up on my Patreon to view for free. You don't have to be a patron to view them. I want to develop them into larger drawings (Maybe I'll do a poll...) You can also check out my Instagram as well. I will post links.
5. I don't have a fifth point. Oh! Um... Share this story with your friends or family or strangers. Promoting it on my own on top of writing, editing, and other stuff is just so difficult. Anything you can do to help is Fantastic! I am choosing not to publish this book (or any of my other novels) for money, and it will remain free until I say otherwise. This is my hobby and I don't necessarily want to make it my main source of income. Now... If at some point you want a hard copy of this novel, by all means, draw me a sign because I will get on it.

6. I really don't have a sixth. *Hands you a cookie*

Oblivion Online (complete)
Thanks for permission to use the cover by WanderingInPixels over on Deviant Art. As of 12-15-18, the story is finished. I am planning to edit and will release the books as I finish in one big go, but there isn't a timeline on any of that. Marty had a fairly easy life as a cook for Arctic Storm Entertainment headquarters when he gets an offer from the company to try out a new playstyle for their biggest VRMMORPG, Oblivion Online. Follow him as he makes his way through the game as one of the monster races trying to survive against the forces of light. Author's note: I will update every Monday and Friday for sure, with the possibilities of bonus chapters through the week if I get extra writing done. I also did a disservice to several of my characters early on. I'm slowly working through a re-write, but it will be a while as I want to make sure I get it right this time around.

Blood & Noodles
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As they always have, humanity hunts the gods roaming the world, craving the supernatural power that flows within their veins. Even a drop is zealously guarded, passed from master to student through the ages. It is with this stolen power that the Blooded - those with divine blood coursing through them - grasp beyond mortality and achieve prestige, power, and greatness. Yet, for every fraction of power gained, thousands perish, slain by the gods' supernatural prowess. But everything is beginning to change. Eight years ago, for the first time in human memory, a god was felled. Part-time chef and full-time nuisance Orvi wants nothing to do with gods. Living in a derelict city, his only concerns are ensuring his adopted family's restaurant is prosperous and how to best beat the neighbourhood boys in a fight. If he's lucky, he might even snag a date with the farmer's daughter at the market. But even though he cares nothing for the gods or their blood, the world won't leave him alone forever. Because to reach godhood, one must first leave their humanity behind. *** The first arc of Blood & Noodles follows the adolescent Orvi as he attempts to navigate his rapidly changing home and - by his own definition - protect his family. The story is told almost entirely in the first-person, from the perspective of a teenager who isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed. There are tragic elements, especially in the current arc. It's character-focused and driven, though the protagonist's shenanigans are backdropped by a world operating independently from him. Orvi's a generally light-hearted character, and though the story veers into darker territory, I also want it to be able to make readers smile. Action sequences, despite the fantastical elements, are meant to be grounded and clearly-conveyed; Orvi is a brawler, not a warrior. I'm trying to write a story that's enjoyable to read and flows nicely, mainly because it's more fun to write. I'm also trying to improve my writing, so any feedback, whether positive or negative, is welcome!

Will Choice of Fate give Jacob the happiness he seeks? Or will Jacob's foray into Choice of Fate drive him further from his pursuit of happiness? Only time will reveal Jacob's fate... Hello ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to my first attempt at writing a novel. I am preparing to participate in the 2017 NaNoWriMo event so enjoy the first chapter as that's here early only to ensure that I have a place to post once the event starts. This means the first novel/book will have a target of 50,000 words. I'm excited to attempt this challenge despite the hurdles I will have to overcome. I do have a demanding full time job so planning time to write and make weekly releases starting in November will be my biggest challenge. Also, please accept my apologies on my cover. I'm not an artist and the only digital tool available at my disposal is the stock microsoft paint. So I did my best to create a decent cover as I did not want to steal the work of another. If there are those interested by the end of November in donating a new fan made cover then I will look into replacing the old cover.
