My journey into taking writing more seriously started around the same time my journey into fatherhood started. Some of my motivation for writing was to leave something physical for my child and my family. In honor of fathers day, https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07T46B4NM I made the book free, wanted to make sure anyone who enjoyed it here on RR or likes the first few chapters can snag it. I hope you enjoy it, I'll make the second book free in a few weeks, and will post when I do that. Thank you all again for reading.
Also, check out the short story I wrote for a LitRPG story I wrote here on RR (https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/26422/skills-archetypes-and-demons-first-encounters) A short story set in the same world is being released on Amazon Monday the 22nd as I try to find a way to fund editing the main project. https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B08B86FNZK If you lack Kindle unlimited or if $1 is too much, know odds are I'll make it free in a month or two, I'll share it on the RR page when I do to give everyone fair warning so you can snag then.
Regarding Mortis Operandi, I have some ideas for some more stories that exist within the world. So far nothing is really too fleshed out and goes beyond a few thousand words. Odds are I'll release a novella or a couple of short stories expanding on the world some more. I love the idea of a Goblin company creating and building security devices for people. After decades of DM'ing and playing D&D I have a lot of stories and stuff I can pull from. While they would make good short stories, they lack an overall narrative that would make for a fun read.
I'm not saying have a good grasp on how story arc's work, but when I can recognize something is lacking, then I know that it must be definitely missing something.

Mostly though the LitRPG/Skills and Demons world has and will be taking up a lot of my time in the near future. If stats and crunchiness isn't your thing, know that I have a non-crunchy type of version for Skills and Demons https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/29481/skills-archetypes-and-demons-first-encounters . I'm doing both because I'm an idiot and I'm still on the fence regarding it. I like presenting the extra information to the reader and as a reader, I like to learn how the mechanics of the world work, on the other hand sometimes I just like a story that just goes along and doesn't require much brainpower that occurs when a stat block appears. It's gonna make for fun time when/if I throw it on amazon as it'll require a separate product listing for each.
Either way, I hope my stories provide some entertainment and escape from the crazy world outside. I'm open to feedback if you find something wrong or just doesn't feel right in the work in progress story(Skills and Demons story on RR above). In the end, I want to provide the best story I can and I know that I cannot do that in an echo chamber nor can I do it alone, I need readers, like you to help point out stupid stuff. So thank you again.

The Everburn Mage
As a child, Rune Ransford held admirable aspirations of following his father's footsteps by joining the military as a combat mage. These skilled practitioners of magic helped to close the curtain on the much dreaded 7 Year War between his home country of Esteras and the nations that threatened to destroy it. Possessing a natural aptitude for manifesting and manipulating fire magic, as well as receiving support from his family, his mind had long since been made up. He would be a mage that would make them proud. However, a single, bloodshed night was enough to change his fate forever. Before his eyes, he witnessed every soul he loved perish in an undying inferno. The worst part of it all wasn't that he was helpless to save them.

What Rune has yet to realize, however, is that there are larger, more malicious forces at play. Forces connected to his family’s untimely demise.
