《Long War》Small Announcement 2: Electric Boogaloo
Advertisement
Alright, so... I'm sorry for the delay xD
I was suffering from serious anxiety (almost to the point of nervous breakdown) over my marriage, fell into a rabbithole of obsessively reading of fanfics for certain anime/manga franchise, then started writing them myself due to most of the ones I found being not quite to my standards, aaaand...
... here we are. Something like 16 months, 1,5 million words and six TV Tropes pages for my fanfics later. Because from some point onward I was on some weird emotional level scarred of checking my RR account to see people being CORRECTLY angry at me.
So, once again, very BIG apology to everyone.
Good news is that my writing improved significantly in the meantime AND I got to meet a significant number of very cool people in the process that my worldbuilding ended up inspiring to write their own things. In short, things are much better, EXCEPT I still need to finish the few fanfics I'm writing.
Three are already finished, three or four need some more work. Since I went so far with that already, I kind of feel the responsibility to finish it before finally exiting the fandom. Yes, I do feel like a bit of a hypocrite over the RR and Long War, SORRY.
My top fanfic writing speed approached five chapters per day, which equated to about 22 thousand words ;_; I seriously needed help back then, but it's much more managable nowadays, at least when I'm not sick or overworked at my real world job.
Before I return to writing Long War (probably will end up with another rewrite, because I already have ideas how to make it MUCH better with my improved skills and sharpened worldbuilding), I need to do that. On a sidenote, I'm writing a bit of a spin-off for the universe, titled Villain Academy, which I plan to start publishing today (it's already pending acceptance). Consider it to be a proof that I got better.

I'm just trying to use it as a gateway back to writing original stuff.
STILL, LONG WAR AIN'T F___KING DEAD AND THAT'S THE MAIN POINT OF THE ANNOUNCEMENT

A Fantasy in Time
Once World War III had finished ravaging the world, a greater, more technologically advanced civilization began to flourish. Humanity believed that they had endured their last great war and spared no expense in their new found freedoms which had opened up their advancement into the Virtual World. Violence and terror seemed a thing of the past while the idea of being able to live out your wildest dreams unrestrainedly had become the new sales pitch for living.As the lessons of the past were forgotten in a time when the world believed the past was outdated, the quiet seeds of corruption found fertile ground and new powers by which to accomplish their goals.All of this was hidden from a world so caught up in their own advancements. Yet there were those that weren't so convinced that everything was over. And so they refused to stay caught in the world of virtual reality and instead sought to make a positive difference in the real world. But what happens when the path they had chosen leads them back to that which they had discarded.This material is copyrighted © by David Baughman.

The King of Desires
Escana is a world where war is but another round of a game, the Reign of Chaos, a game that the Gods have been playing for eons. On Escana, war is merely a form of entertainment for the Demon Lords to sate their hunger for destruction and their thirst for power. Escana is a place where peace is but an illusion, a calm before a storm, and the short breaks between the games. All mortals, human, dwarves, elves and the other races living on Escana, they are consigned to live inside that living hell from the moment of their birth.It should be just another unspectacular round of The Reign of Chaos. It should be just another dulled war among the great many that have been fought before this. It should be just another day and another year. And yet, in this newest round, appeared a prince who is prophesized to bring about an end to everything. Fearless is his name, a man of many identities. A jokester. A charlatan. A lover. An Ender. He is a self-proclaimed the-world-biggest-fool among the most foolish. He is the Prince among princes.
