《Sir Crabby (Progression Litrpg)》Author Afterword Book 2

Advertisement

And so the end of Book 2 has been reached! It’s been an exciting thing for me to write thus far. I wanted to answer a few questions I’ve received from various readers.

Question 1: This story gets pretty dark sometimes. How is this comedy?

A: In my humble opinion, there has to be stakes. There is no light without the dark, and so on. Otherwise it turns into something like the Simpsons. (Entertaining on its face value, but there’s not an emotional involvement with the characters or story because you know they’re just a vehicle for crass humor that will never end).

Question 2: There seems to be a melding of genres in the story/work, is there a point?

A: I believe I’ve alluded to this in the afterword of the first book, but each book serves as a parody of a specific genre, (in addition to working as a vehicle for the overarching plotline). So, the first book was a parody of a dungeon crawl, the second was a parody of the military, and the third & fourth books…. Will be revealed in time.

Question 3: The story format/pacing seems a little different than what I’m used to on RR.

A: It’s meant to be a series of books, not a web serial. This is not a story that will extend thousands of chapters for almost a decade.

Question 4: How many books do you currently have planned?

A: I’m not a huge fan of series that never end. (Looking angrily at you Rothfuss, Martin, Butcher et. al). I currently plan to wrap the story up with a total of 4 books, so we’re halfway there. That may change depending on what the future holds.

Question 5: So you’re teaming up with Ryan Rimmel to publish, what’s up with that?

A: Ryan has been a fantastic help with refining and developing the story. That being said, with the published version of the novel, the story is essentially the same, just with some pleasant additions. You won’t be missing out on anything vital (plot wise) if you continue to read here. An audiobook is also being made, so if you enjoy listening over reading, that is always an option.

Question 6: How can I support your work?

A: There’s always Patreon of course, though I am more of a manic writer that updates to the hilt, and then crashes for a week or two. It’s a flaw, and I’m working on it haha. But, pre-ordering or downloading/reading the first book when it comes out on November 8th would be incredibly helpful. Link here: https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0B6Q9THF2

If this does well enough, then maybe I can write for a living, haha.

Question 7: When is the first book being removed again?

A: October 25th.

Question 8: When does the next book start?

A: October 24th. (I’m taking this week to finalize some plot points and take a mental break).

I hope you all have enjoyed the journey so far. If you have any questions, leave them below and I’ll try to answer them as I can.
