    Discord Server

    So I FINALLY got a Discord account.

    I'm making a Discord server run by me for the purpose of helping each other out with stories. At least I'll try to. Me vs. technology. -__-

    Anywho, message me if you'd like the address.

    Hugs,

    Sorry all

    It's been too long since I've posted anything here. I apologize. Short explanation is that I have had a severe set back with my depression that caused me to go in partial hospitalization and quit my job. So I'm very much floating along until I can find something that works for me.

[TCARW Update]: Been a While, Folks! · 4:32am Nov 25th, 2015

Howdy there! I hope this blog post finds you lovely folks well.

I know my hiatus has been frustrating for some, but I want to let you know that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. Read on to find out what I've been up to.


So, as you know (or may not know) This Cruel and Random World's series is my baby. It's my favorite story I've ever written, and I'm very attached to it. As such, it's not going anywhere. I won't let the sequels sit around unfinished. From the last bit of TCARW, you should have noticed that it is only book one. I plan on writing four books for the series. Disillusion is the second shortest, followed by the fourth. The third, Regarding Draconequus will likely be the longest and it will also be an adventure instead of my typical SOL.

I have finally decided to give a name to the series as I can't keep calling it "TCARW Series." Talk about cumbersome! Sheesh. Sooo, I've come up with a good one I think. From now on, all my blog posts with this will be related to the series. So don't freak out, it's still the same, just got a fancier name. The series is now called . . .

Aberrant Harmony

Mmmkay. Now that that's cleared up, other news.

We still need voice actresses/actors and artists for the audio book. PM me or Nerf if you're interested. We'd love to have you!

I am writing a lot for Disillusion actually. You can't see it, but I swear it's there and it's good. The reason why it's taking so long apart from RL stuff is that it's going to be a much higher quality than TCARW. My writing is constantly improving, and though better from a readability and enjoyment standpoint, it does tend to "bog down" my process somewhat. Half of my writing consists of re-writing the same freakin' sentence 6 times until I'm happy with it. Sometimes I delete massive chunks of text (like over 1k words or more). I have to finagle a lot with Disillusion as the mystery aspect is being pumped up and my tapestry just got a heck of a lot more intricate.

Believe it or not, I'm striving to have Disillusion finished sometime in January. No promises, but I'm aiming for that. Best part about my finishing it beforehand is that you won't have to wait for updates! It'll update regularly. Woo!

I NEED a solid, reliable pre-reader and editor for Disillusion. You will be answering a boat ton of questions a BOAT TON and helping me work out where to put certain scenes etc. You must be able to keep quiet about what you're reading too as I don't want any spoilers creeping out. I can pay you in showers of praise and donkey points, that's about it. You will however have my extreme gratitude for it. PM me if you're interested.

I can't thank you all enough for being so patient with me and continuing to read my story. I can't tell you how impatient I am to show you the finished product! It's going to be a beautiful work of literary art if I do say so myself. Okay, that sounded egotistical. But in all seriousness, I think you'll really enjoy it.

Hang in there, have a wonderful rest of the week (holiday if you're in the US /celebrate Thanksgiving) and God Bless!

Which story was Disillusion? Is that the name of the sequel to TCARW?

Hmmmm...
