《Author's Rant》Re-reading
Advertisement
Ugh. I've been so busy. Why does moving off campus have to be so hectic. Still need to apply for summer courses, but hey. That's for later.
Anyway, I've got a graduation I have to attend tomorrow, and I can't really decline because I have nothing else, and this weekend will be a visit to my grandparents, but, next week should be more free? I dunno.
I went to get back to writing my stories, and I ran into a problem. I have this issue with continuity. I am almost obsessed with it. So, every time I go to write, if I've forgotten something, I go back and re-read everything that I've written so far, t0o try and get my mindset back into the story, and I have all the facts laid out in front of me. I, uh, messed that up on The Shifter, though I don't think anyone has noticed it yet. Early on, I had the personality of Havel and Malik created. But, uh, I kinda forgot. And they're twins. Makes it all the easier to mix them up, even in my head.
So, currently, Havel and Malik have no personality at this point, because I fucked up early on. So that's been a pain to try and work with and fix. Doesn't help that I lost my notes sheet for The Shifter. I think it might be on a different computer, but even then, I don't remember what I titled the file.
But, at least I am now at home, where I can actually access my other computer and maybe get that file off. Or I might not. It's a pain to set up the computer. Might make a new one and just subtly change things from before. As long as the continuity remains, it'll be fine.

In other news, I got a review. On this "story." I don't get it. Like, I mean, thanks? But, this...isn't a story? I'm...confused and, just, I'unno. I like comments, and I like reviews, as they let me see what the people reading my shit think, but I was never expecting any of that for this. Maybe some for the story ideas I soundboard here, but not even then, really.
Oh god, ADHD brain just jumped tracks. Looking back at my writing from when I first started, it's clear to see I've improved. Hell, even my writing from a few years ago is worse than it is now. But, despite that, I still think I write like shit. I think that's normal, though? Always underestimating your art. Also, I just realized, but a lot of the stories I started writing always stopped shortly after I introduced other characters. I guess that goes to show how much I dislike writing dialogue. I might post my zombie story next.
Oh, right, that reminds me. I have this naming convention. Almost all of my stories are titles as "The _______" for a reason. I always struggled coming up with names for my stories. But then I read this book series that did the same thing. And I realized, "Hey, ya'know, I could just do that. I won't actually keep those names as the names of the stories, but they'll make good placeholder names until I think of something better." Spoiler: I have yet to think of anything better. So, all but one of my stories are currently named "The _______" and are very unlikely to ever change.
Well, I'mma get back to re-reading my stories, and then, when I catch up, I'll write a bit. See ya later.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
