《Life is Wilde》Indefinite Hiatus
Advertisement
So, sorry guys and gals, but I'm having trouble continuing this story- not because I can't write it- because I have had a series of events that have lead me to have less time.
Event one:
One of the reasons why I wrote stories was to bide my time while I watched my grandfather. I looked after my grandfather four around 6 or 7 years. He was going demented, senile, and had partial paralysis from a stroke. Not much you can do when you feel locked down in that type of relationship. So, long story short, the grandfather with whom I'd look after, talk to, and generally care for passed on January 30. The following week after I was awake, but lucid, while I helped with the funeral arrangements. I came back, and crashed.
Event two:
While I was helping arrange my grandfather's funeral, I'd just applied for my first full-time job position. I had to go to the in person interview, rush through it while depressed, and hope I'd get the job. The day my grandfather was buried, while I was carrying his casket, I got a notification I'd been given a chance to work for this company. I was estatic, but numb.
Event three:
As I've gotten this new job, the next three weeks from February 3, I had to change my awake schedule. The training period for this job is 8 a.m. through 5 p.m. It takes me an hour to get home, and I haven't had any money to really eat well. So- luckily for me, my sisters have been helping me. Needless to say, mal-nutrition and altered awake status caused me to be more than lethargic.
Conclusion:
Until I can get back into the role of writing, after my training ends on February 24, there will most-likely be no chapter releases. Sorry for the inconveniance to all those who followed me on the onset of this journey. I will be posting chapters when I get re-acclimated to my proper sleep schedule.
Sincerely,
AKindBoy

Dead in the Water: A Dungeon's Tale
Waking up unexpectedly, trapped on a desert island is never pleasant. It's even less so when you wake up as a newborn dungeon core. Only time will tell if this fledgling dungeon will thrive, or if he's dead in the water.
8 196The Clanless Cultivator
In spite of his best efforts, sixteen-year-old Taryn is an outcast. No one in the city will sully themselves by associating with a Clanless, and without someone to jumpstart his Eco core, he’s unable to fulfill his dream of walking the path of a cultivator. However, his life is suddenly turned upside down when he finds a journal belonging to an ancient immortal known only as 'The Mourner.' The journal was enchanted to pass along the memories and knowledge of the old cultivator to their successor. Taryn is ecstatic, as he suddenly has an abundance of knowledge at his fingertips… But he’s unable to make use of that knowledge without Eco. And the Mourner's spirit has begun showing Taryn visions of a possible future. One where his home is destroyed and the only family he knows dies before his very eyes. There’s only one way to prevent this future from coming to pass. But the journey will either force him to surpass those who once mistreated him, transforming Taryn forever... Or end in his death.
8 102Transmigration to the Otherworldly Heavens
Transmigration is really tough ordeal. You never know what is awaiting you on the other side of summoning circle. There is bound to be misunderstanding, confusion, perhaps a certain amount of violence. Isekai, or an Otherworld, can be full of danger, it’s people might have too different beliefs and customs. They might be monsters or treat you as one. It’s always full of surprises, both good and bad. Mostly bad. Especially if the summoner is not "kidnapping" you to hire as the Hero.. but as the God. With every single trouble that entails. Published weekly on Scribblehub, RoyalRoad, Honeyfeed and Patreon*.*One chapter ahead so far. Discord channel: https://discord.gg/7SDw4gFZX6
8 165The Magi Magic Games
The planet of Vextel is home to Mana, an essence that can be harnessed and be used as Magic. Not everybody can use Magic, however. Only people born with Stigmas can wield Magic. People with this unbelievably amazing power are referred to as “Prophets”. Prophets from across the world are gathered into various schools to learn and master their acquired arts. Then the best students from these schools compete as representatives in the annual Magi Magic Games. The winners are then sent to the Zone, to fight other magic users from the planets: Craynax, Skyria, and Oeria. The winner then gets their deepest desire granted by the Beings; all-powerful creatures that created the games, and life. Elenore Magnus, a seventeen-year-old girl, a Prophet, dreams big. She wants to participate in the Zone Games to get her deepest desire granted. What is her deepest desire? To have her brother set free, who has been accused and branded a traitor for supposedly rebelling against the Beings. She wants her brother back and the truth. But first, she must win the Magi Magic Games.
8 82Saga of the Jewels VOLUME ONE COMPLETE
Prefer to listen to rather than read Saga of the Jewels? I'm also releasing it as a free audibook serial podcast on iTunes here! Epic YA JRPG-influenced GameLit progression ensemble-cast steampunk romance fantasy! When Ryn’s hometown is destroyed, will he be able to gather together the twelve Primeval Jewels in order to defeat the evil Emperor and save the world of Mid? A fan novelization of an amazing Final Fantasy game that doesn’t actually exist, that currently releases at least one chapter a month. Epic in that this will be very long. “It’s a marathon, not a sprint!” (-Kandaj) YA in that this should be enjoyable to~13-year-olds and upwards. Some gore, some swearing, some sex, but nothing more than PG-13. JRPG-influenced / GameLit in that it uses lots of JRPG tropes, particularly from Final Fantasy. I’ve read a lot of fan Final Fantasy novelisations and you can basically think of this as a fan novelisation of its own Final Fantasy game that doesn’t actually exist as a game... Progression in that the characters level up over time (though not with visible litrpg stat boxes). They grow in ability through training and experience, gain new skills, individually and as a party (think Chrono Trigger) and spend time discussing and stratgeising about how to defeat their opponents. Main protagonist from book three would definitely be able to defeat himself from book one! Ensemble-cast because we've got quite the roster of misfits here. The first volume is all from the main protagonist's POV, but it starts dancing between his and different POVs thereafter. Steampunk in that we’ve also got airships, steam trains, pistols and ambiguous ‘amber bars’ that function a bit like artificial lights… Romance in that there is lots of shipping here, a few love triangles, and you may be kept guessing as to who will actually end up together... Fantasy in that we’re in a vaguely pre-modern setting. We’ve got swords, magic, dragons, dungeons, monsters, all that good stuff. * "This story captures that Final Fantasy quality perfectly. Kiddy but also grim. The characters are great... Severely underrated and needs more favorites/follows. I look forward to seeing how this story will unfold." -Gilgamesh9999 "Starting at the end and jumping backwards is not a writing style seen every day. I'll admit, I was a bit skeptical at first, but you've executed a fairly crazy idea very skillfully so far. Overall, a strong start to what could be a very strong story." -RandomFF.netUser "You definitely have my interest piqued. It'll be interesting to see where the story goes... It definitely has an 'old school Final Fantasy' type feel to it, which I appreciate...Good job! I am glad you are going into more details about the story you laid out in the prologue...of course the big burning question is 'You know they lose in the the first chapter, so how will they end up winning?' That of course, is the story you're writing...so we'll see how it goes! #Following." -KyleQuicksilver (quotes are from reviews on other sites) * If you enjoy it, don’t forget to boost Saga of the Jewels on topwebfiction.com!
