《Re:Demon》What's been going on in my life + vent and changes
Advertisement
To preface this announcement, I apologize for the long hiatus. I have been going through both a financial crisis as well as severe depression. This has led to a long hiatus for both Re: Demon and Programmica Magica. While I overcame my depression, I realized something. The reason I get burnt out so quickly on writing is because I'm not writing for myself.
I don't want to be an author, I wish to be an explorer. Explore ideas, create many worlds, and fill each world with rich lore. There's an issue I've had ever since I was young: I create a story idea, get started on it, and have the whole book planned out within the first few chapters. When this happens, I typically keep the story to myself. I get engrossed in thinking about it, too much to write it. It's like when you're supposed to write an essay for class but a brand new book gets your attention and you're loving it.
Many of you will not like this, and please, if you do not like what is about to happen, please unfollow. I do not wish to waste your time with my indecisiveness and selfishness. I will be dropping both Re: Demon and Programmica Magica. Why? They're generic, they're garbage. They both are just inspirations of other isekai. I want to write something unique, and explore ideas for myself. I don't want to be just "another isekai author", I want to be unique. I will no longer use polls asking questions related to any series I start from now on. Here's another big kicker that I'm sure will garner some backlash: I will not keep a consistent schedule. When I'm inspired it could be daily, and when I'm busy with school or just feeling unmotivated then it could be bimonthly.

Although waking up every day to check for comments, reading the comments of new chapters, etc. made me incredibly, incredibly happy, the weight of trying to write a story for others made me lose my motivation. I still wish to thank every follower, even the ones leaving. Thank you so much for supporting me during my rough times, and I hope you can find stories that fill you with emotions and excitement. Farewell any that are leaving, you will not be forgotten. In particular, I will never forget: DaRip, Maou ID, DragonEgg, and smuggles. You four have been especially active in my comment sections.
Now, no more pity party nonsense. I'm just droning on at this point (btw, this will be left unedited. I just want to vent and let you all know what is going on). Apologies for my venting, let's summarize now.
Every change happening to my writing:
- No longer asking for input
- Inconsistent uploads
- Dropping Programmica Magica and Re: Demon
- Starting two new stories: a sci-fi futuristic isekai and a compilation of short stories whenever I get new ideas.
- Deleting Re: Demon Discord
- Now writing for myself
I look forward to seeing everyone once I begin my new stories.

Rise of the Realm (Dungeon Core)
Dungeons are probably amongst the strangest creatures in the world, creating vast labyrinths and wonders to explore. This is the story of one such dungeon as he makes his first shaky steps into the world, and all of the horror and majesty he will bring into the world. (This is my first fiction and I would appreciate any constructive criticism) Note: Litrpg elements start around chapter nine, and the story is a little slow at first.

The Summoned - Complete
In a world of magic, ruled by many warring races, the human kingdoms are being pushed to the brink of collapse. In a desperate bid to gain the strength to stand on an equal footing with the other nations, they perform a forbidden ritual to summon combat slaves from another dimension. Unluckily for them, Mors Letus, recently named by their world's God of Death, was one of them. **** Warning **** This is a re-release (The Summoned) of the first book I wrote in partnership with my brother (who later forced the story to be pulled (It was released on his account here)). I have started writing my own version of the story (BOM: The Summoned) and will continue to primarily invest in that, though, now I have permission to re-release this one, I plan finish this as I have the drafts and it was close to the end of the first book. Many characters/scenes and events match/Will match BOM: The Summoned, especially in future arc's (Past Flatner forest). If you don't like spoilers, don't want to get confused between the two stories or hate first attempts at writing (god awful grammar/sentence structure and storytelling), I would advise against reading.

Quest is not for sorceress
Join me with the rest of the crew on the deck as we sailed on The Tornado, exclusively in discord. https://discord.gg/QgFZ4Hy In the Kingdom of Agrierd, where the art of magic was banned, a hopeless sorceress accidentally picked up the Destiny Stone. Every men and women, when they turned sixteen, was given a chance to pursue their life quest and fulfill their purpose in life. Those who accomplished their life quest will be rewarded and blessed by the Goddess of Destiny. Those who stray away from their purpose will be punished by the Guardian of the Quest who comes knocking on the window at midnight. Mia traveled throughout the Kingdom of Agrierd to finish her quest bestowed by the Goddess of Destiny. Will Mia accomplished her life quest or will she lived her life haunted by the Guardian of the Quest? I edit, re-edit, and re-edit and I gave up. Oh, well. I'll see where this story goes and decides later whether I should get a proofreader. Do excuse my grammars, English is my third language and I left school some times ago. I had long forgot about most of the things I learned in classroom.

Twisted Skies
After his master's death, Thurain leaves his rural home behind and travels to Heliana, the cramped city founded on the scientific progress of cultivation. Under a fake name, he aims to enter the Elemental Path Sect, the place of his master's death, to find both his killers, and closure. However, surrounded by the strange and horrible wonders of Heliana and its mixture of heroes and villains, his master's death is not the only murder he may have to solve. --- First attempt at a xianxia novel from me. To shake things up from the usual formula, the setting is more steam-punk than you might expect, and there are elements of murder mystery mixed in with the standard formula (though I'm not entirely sure yet how far to go with it.) I wrote this a while ago for NaNoWriMo, only posting it now for various reasons. Enjoy. Also, cover is highly temporary. I'll probably replace it with something nicer eventually.

Leave Bad Enough Alone
Something has been amiss in the city’s theaters as of late. The local bards have long done a respectable job of keeping the audiences entertained, weaving high concepts with skillful performances. But lately, a new set of bards, and their illusionist cohorts, have captured the crowd’s attention. Compared to the theater’s usual fare, their work is hackneyed and poorly plotted, with unskilled acting, bad special effects, and unsatisfying resolutions. Worst of all, the audiences like their work more, and these upstarts are far more profitable than the city’s decent bards! Clearly, there must be some dark secret behind the success of these newcomers, and it’s up to the city’s true artists to find out what it is and expose the conspiracy! Or maybe the city’s bards have just become too hopelessly pretentious and derivative. It’s hard to tell. But investigate it they must! Failure is not an option! Victory, or...well, they’ll have to get day jobs or something. Original cover image generated by NightCafé.Master story list here.
