《Daggers》author's note + a proposal
Advertisement
hello hello!! seeing as it's been literally three years since i wrote this, i figured it's time to have a little chat with y'all.
first of all, THANK YOU for the support you've shown me. i am so lucky that this story reached so many people and brought smiles to so many faces. it's brought me so much joy to read y'all's comments or see that someone else has taken an interest in daggers. when i started writing this, i was thirteen years old. i'd just watched les mis for the first time, and after noticing a shortage in stories about my favorite pairing, i decided to write one myself. it was something fun to unwind and practice writing without the pressure of holding it to professional/publication standards.
well, i just turned seventeen, and i don't think i would believe myself if i told my younger self how successful this story's been. i love you all so much.
on that note, i wanted to propose a little idea to you all. my writing style's evolved considerably since i wrote daggers, and i was wondering if any of you would be open to the idea of a rewritten version. don't worry, the story you've grown to love won't change. it's just that going back and reading this, i know that i could make it a thousand times better if i were to rework some of the dialogue and edit some of the descriptions. would y'all be open to that, or would you prefer i leave the original version intact? please let me know!!
xoxo, anna

A Canopy of Stars
Arden, planet of a billion souls, has been destroyed. A solar body, known only as The Dark Star collided with the world, shattering it. Through the actions of ancient heroes, and the sacrifice of the Gods, life found a way. Floating through the black sea of space, orbiting the destructive beauty of The Dark Star is Shatter, a coalition of continental rocks, surviving as best they can. Through magic and technological advancements, the fractured remnants of the planet have been made halfway habitable. In addition to shattering the prime material plane of Arden, The Dark Star’s destructive force also fractured the planar system, collapsing ancient barriers and forcing the wild elemental and chaotic magics of the planes into conjunction. The Kingfisher, helmed by the enigmatic and powerful Captain Thunder and her miscreant crew, do odd jobs to survive, operating outside of the law. One such job takes them to the shard of Evergreen, a fragment of planet covered in brilliant forests and the capricious and deadly faerie folk who call them home. Unfortunately, while the job seems simple enough from the outside, it quickly embroils the crew of the Kingfisher in a dangerous storm. Can Thunder and her crew keep to the sidelines when war is brewing around them?

War Beast
The future is savage. Jenny Summer is a news reporter who hates her job. One day, an accident sends her through a time portal, straight into the distant future. A future of warring Beastmen tribes, deadly monsters, and magic from beyond the imagination. When the savage world is full of many threats, how will the average modern-day girl survive? Author's Note: This is a rewrite of my fiction with the original title. Instead of changing my chapters in my other draft, I made a copy with a different beginning and a few new chapters. The beginning will move straight to the fantasy world like most Isekai light novels. As usual, each chapter will go between 500 and 2,000 words. I deleted the other draft since this draft will be my focus. Enjoy and let me know what you think of this new draft. There may also be grammar and spelling errors too. This series is still in development.
