《A Lich's Life》Bad News
Advertisement
Unfortunately, I have been diagnosed with covid-19. Currently, the symptoms seem mild so with hope I will be able to bounce back as soon as possible. For now, I am going to put writing on hold for the sake of my health. I will soon post the remaining chapters I have finished after posting this update. Originally I had planned on binge writing a couple of chapters. But I've taken this as a sign that maybe I shouldn't continue this story. A big thank you to all the readers who read my first practice novel. I apologize for this abrupt ending to the series. I plan on rehashing the concept into a better more refined book which I am planning on working on after I recover.
From here is just me rambling so if you don't wanna read that's cool.
Although it saddens me to shelf this I was quite disappointed at how my story was progressing. As an avid supporter of the necromancer class and undead race, I always wanted to write a book that showcased all their awesomeness especially Liches. But due to their semi-immortal status, it created a massive writing block when I tried developing the story. I would be stuck trying to figure out ways on how to make the MC's adventures important and have worth.
Even though most readers subconsciously know that MC most likely will survive most encounters the chance of failure on an adventure is what makes reading interesting. That's why having an immortal character who could just pop back to his phylactery made it hard to make any of his journeys seem fun to read. Most of the time I was just stuck with either a riskless MC who steamrolled, extremely overpowering of enemies, or I would have just to nerf the MC to the ground so his immortality wouldn't ruin the story.

Of course, liches aren't infallible by any means. There are many written examples of liches getting defeated such as sealing, banishing, and destroying the phylactery. I felt the story would be really boring if I gave every single enemy the means to deal with his immortality. The final option if I really wanted to could have just altered the definition of liches to make them still powerful but lack immortality. Even though I could do that I felt that was a disrespect to the archetype of liches. I have an idea on how to fix this for my next novel and yes without a doubt my next novel will be about a lich necromancer. I honestly don't know where A Lich's life is heading. Whether I continue this in the far future or just shelf it is up in the air. If you read this far thank you for listening to this sick man's rant. Thanks for your time and I hope you'll stick around for my next book. Have a wonderful day mates.

8 184Better Than Bad (JJBA Fanfic)
One universe reset was all it took to change the paths of twisted men. Twisted men who killed for pleasure, selfish gain, benefit, or simply for revenge. Men whose morals didn't depend on societal standards, but depended on their own twisted desires. But these men all had their pasts stripped of them, and all were reborn anew, given another chance by fate to redeem themselves. A priest, a former president, a schizophrenic, a dinosaur, a serial killer, a beetle enthusiast, an aztec god, and a vampire, all fated to meet each other because one had a change of heart. Fate.. It's a silly thing, really. But, everything happens for a reason.(This fanfic contains minor swearing, blood, and character deaths.)
