    Its been ages

    I did not have anything on my mind for the new chapter that was just published. I'll be honest, its been years and I forgot about this place a lot. I've been busy with life and its many ways of screwing with me so writing was the last thing on my mind. Then when I actually found some time and was cleaning out a lot of files I found the unfinished chapter and decided to work on it for whatever

    Where have I been?

    I'm still here. You'll see me on now and then or practically everyday and the reason for that is the fact I have my page up in the browser at pretty much any given time. I'm still writing here and there when I have time or can't sleep but, I still have school as well so the scheduling is hectic at most.

    Life so far and Scheduling

    So I've not been updating as much as readers would like and I base this off of my feelings as a reader. I'm an avid reader and just a fledgling of a writer so I can say with confidence that when a story I'm currently reading takes quite a while to update, I start having mixed feelings about it. I understand that people have their circumstances and there is nothing they can do at times but it

    So many stories. So little time.

    I'm finding myself with very little time to write due to things such as classes and life. So I need to put my focus on one story at a time. Which brings me to the point. I want your opinions on which story should be my focus until I find the time to work on the rest. For those that are curious, Dimming Flame is one I'll work on in between the one that'll be the focus since that one is going to

    Paradox Ending

    Paradox Scholar is the very first story I really worked hard on and helped me improve my writing bit by bit. The ending to the story was left in a very ambiguous way due to my thoughts on the future of the story itself. The thought came to me as I looked at the statistics of the story. Not a lot of people actually read it and I get that it was because of it having a lot of editing errors. I'm

Inspiration · 6:42pm Jun 18th, 2016

So the quote "If you only write when you're inspired you'll make a decent poet, but you'll never be a novelist" is something I'm burning into my mind. I can't say it or write it enough, the more I read and hear it the more I understand that I'm doing this for more than just a hobby. I'm trying to be a writer, but I didn't understand what being a writer meant. It means that I have to keep writing regardless of whether I have ideas for a story or not. I need to write short stories about things that don't interest me and things that do interest me. I need to write and attempt novels on bad or good ideas and finish them. This is the only way I see myself getting started on the road to being a writer, it's one that I'll be starting by practicing on this site and with all you. Please look forward to an increase of work as I attempt to reach the starting line for something I would otherwise have left as a hobby and possibly abandon.

As always, thank you for taking the time to read any of my stories or blogs. Have a great day!
