As nervous as I was feeling, I was prepared for today. Finally, I was going to see Isaiah for the first time. Shit, I didn't even know what to wear. We ended up texting all night and things just seemed so right. There's hope here and I'm definitely going to keep going after it. We decided on starting things over again, it's for the better anyways.
Right when I finished flat ironing my hair, I felt a rush of throw up at the back of my throat. I accidentally dropped the flat iron onto the pink plush rug and ran into the bathroom — heading straight for the toilet. I emptied out the pancakes and grits I had ate for breakfast. Once I was finished I walked to the sink and brushed my teeth before looking in the mirror. Pregnancy was amazing but at the same time it was draining. It felt like all I do is throw up constantly. And, that's what I hate the most.
Walking back into my bedroom, I picked up the flat iron that had burned the rug. "Fuck, I'ma have to just get a new one." I shrugged, unplugging it and placing it back down on the black towel. "Now what to wear." I sighed, rumbling through the full sized closet.
Ten minutes into looking for something, I just decided on a basic black sundress. With some matching sandals of course. I would've did more but, I don't think that's necessary. I grabbed my phone from my dresser and went to his contact.
TWO RECIPIENTS.

After that long ass ride to say I was tired was an understatement. I was exhausted and I haven't even did anything yet. Stepping out of the car I quickly made my way into the restaurant. From the side I could see Isaiah sitting at a table all alone. I'm not sure why but, seeing his face again in person made me want to run out. It's not like the last time we seen each other ended on a good note, we both had anger in our eyes. That's the last thing I remember. It's stuck with me for two months.
Swallowing the lump in my throat, I walked over to him with a smile on my face. "Hey."
He looked up at me and returned the smile, standing from his seat he embraced me in a hug. "Hey, baby. I've missed you two so much."
We pulled away from the hug and I sat from across of him. "I missed you too. What's been upAnything new"
"Remember I told you I got signed yesterdayLater on tonight I'ma actually go to the studio and put some shit out. See how people respond to it and shit."
"Ahh, that's amazing. I know how much you love rapping, I remember the first time I heard you spit some bars. That was our first date."
He chuckled. "Yeah, I remember that. You threatened me and had an attitude that whole night. Shit was smooth then."
"And then a couple weeks later I end up pregnant. You think we were moving too fastI think we really should've used protection constantly until we really started to know each other."
"Oh yeah, we definitely was. Everything just happened in the heat of the moment but now things are getting fixed. We have a child to raise and we'll be doing that together, ain't nothing ever gone come in between us."

"You say all of this now." I sighed. "Are you sure about thisYou really done with all them other bitches"
He reached over the table and grabbed onto my hand, looking me dead in the eyes. "Yes, baby. I'm sure. I'm done with all those other girls, you the only one I'ma ever need and more."
"Okay. I believe you."
There's those words again. Those words that always find me in trouble someway, somehow. Hopefully things are on the start to being different.

Domonique and I been with each other on the low. It was for the sake of her father not finding out we were together. Plus she she said she didn't want to be in the spotlight of me being an official rapper. So, I had to be very careful with everything I was doing. Although, I have slipped up and posted her sometimes. Besides all that we finally had some time to spend together today.
"IZZYYYYYYStop, you bout to make me pee on myself" She screamed in between laughs, trying to catch her breath.
I kept tickling her until I felt like she had enough. "Aight, aight. I'm done, I don't need you wetting the bed up."
"Shut upAnyways, we you shooting the video for That's the only shit I been hearing on the radio and you only released that shit last week."
"Soon, don't worry about that though. We gotta figure out how this Christmas shit gon' work."
"Well since I'm doing the early gender reveal on Christmas Eve, why don't we just go out of townWhere nobody knows us and we can get some privacy"
I nodded. "We can definitely do that ma. Anywhere you wanna go, we going and I mean that shit."
"Ah, Ah. What I tell youWe're taking things slow again, rememberSo, don't be saying none of that just yet."
"You be ruining all my fun but, you right we taking things slow." I agreed with her, moving closer to her on the bed.
She sat herself up and just stared at me. "You so fucking fine, yo." She blurted out.
I laughed. "Thanks, baby."
"You know what... we might have to break the taking things slow rule for right now."
"And why is that"
"I want some dick."
The way she said it just made me laugh, it was so straightforward. "Seriously
"I'm so serious. Ain't nothing else can happen, I'm already pregnant."
"You right. Bring that ass over here."

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
