《Soulscapes of Aluria: Ashes to Ashes》An Update
Advertisement
Hey. Just thought I'd let everyone know I'm not dead. I also haven't abandoned this series. And yes, series. Ashes to Ashes is the first in a line of books in the Soulscapes of Aluria universe. And it's not a short book either. But I digress.
I've been working on a rewrite and an actual proper schedule for writing Ashes to Ashes and the series as a whole and have been on and off writing. The good news is that once I actually start uploading again, I won't be stopping until the entire book has been uploaded, and the second shouldn't be long after the first. The bad news is, I don't know when I'll actually start uploading. I can at least guarantee that it will be sometime this year, I just can't specify when.
I've gone through so much in my personal life these past two years, and the end of last year was a boiling point I didn't think I could come back from. But I have, and I'm back in action now, and there shouldn't be anything else to stop me now. Y'know, unless the universe itself decides to come down and break my fingers. And even then, I can work around it.
With all that being said, I really am sorry I haven't been updating anything here, and unfortunately that's not really gonna change for now. All I can say for certain is that once I come back sometime this year, I'm not going anywhere. Hope to see you then.

Apocalypse at Mighty Max
God sold us out and the world ended... well, sort of. God may have sold us, or at least, our universe but our world didn't end. Instead, the new owners decided to play, and we all know what that means: Monsters, a System, Magic, Cultivation, and, of course, two new moons! Thanks for reading! I appreciate the interest. This is a rough draft and is intended to flesh out some ideas for a novel that I had. Maybe figure out if I want to do this author thing, you know? If you want immediately OP MCs, fights every chapter, a harem, this is not the story for you. Sorry about that. If you're willing to put up with a long growth curve, an MC that doesn't know what he's doing most of the time but is trying his best both to survive and to help his friends survive, you might enjoy the story. I'm just trying to have fun, maybe create something that in a second draft I can sell on the eBook market. If you're not into that, not into providing helpful comments for revisions, hey, that's cool, but do us both a favor and stop reading now. ** Oh, release schedule For the first weeks, I'll be releasing a chapter (1800-3000 words) a day. Following that, I'll be releasing whenever the mood strikes me. If I get some feedback, the mood might strike me more often, hint! hint!

Horizon
Emiluna is about to turn 16 and gain access to her first two classes. Living in a small village in the middle of nowhere, she always wanted to become a Hunter. Having learned a bit under her parents, a miller and a seamstress, she was sure she could never pick a class that meant staying inside all day. But being a Hunter is more than just a class. It means providing meat for the village, culling small pests near the cultivated fields and most importantly guarding the village from predators and monsters. But Emiluna is not a normal girl and her destiny far bigger than she could have ever imagined.Join her as she finds out what awaits just behind the horizon.[Word from the author]I am looking to create a fantasy world that has some logic to it and stays believable even as characters gain power and progress in levels.Classes and level quantify the people's progress, but they do not artificially inflate their power to demi-god levels. I am primarily trying to write a captivating story, not "power-porn". That means it will be slower than the fast burning litRPG you might be used to, but it won't burn out that quickly either and I won't drop half of my plots at the wayside. I should mention that English is not my native language. I hope it is mostly unnoticeable, but sometimes I manage to slip some awkard sentence structure in there (German sometimes puts things together in reverse).It it also my first time writing an actual fantasy novel and the first time writing anything at length in English. Any constructive feedback is very welcome.Credit where credit is due: Cover picture by Paul Bica (Licensed under CC 2.0)Check out his amazing photos here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dexxusYes, my cover picture is a photo, not a drawing. :D I might try my hand at some Paint-ification later to add the title.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Some stories should have em while others shouldnt cause they cause a huge detraction, hope im using that right, from how good a book can be.
