    New chapter update tomorrow

    It's been almost nine months but Night Terrors should be seeing an update tomorrow morning. This is a story that I feel has been underperforming a lot throughout its run, and there's a good chance it'll be my last long story for the foreseeable future. That said, it's still one that's very special to me, and I hope people will stick around to the end of it. I've wound up altering the outline I

    April chapter updates — an update about updates

    I’ve been running into a road block while working on some of my current projects lately and thought I’d write out a little status update for where I’m at story update wise for this month. This is going to be a mixed bag in terms of update timelines, but I always like to share where I’m at with my work anyways, even if it’s the kind of content that maybe one or two people actually enjoy reading

    Odyssey Chapter I is out

    Because of how I'm working on this particular rewrite, the reworked chapters will not appear as "new" chapters and the story won't appear as "updated". So what that means is that I'm going to have to work harder with every update to get the story out there. This chapter shouldn't be unfamiliar to longtime readers, however, it will have some very subtle yet significant lore changes towards

    Relaunching "Odyssey"

    You might have noticed, I rebranded and did some tweaking to "Odyssey". The first "prologue" chapter is up, though I guess it's not technically a true prologue, but rather more of a lore-filled intro. I don't want to get people's hopes up yet, so I'm not going to commit to a full structured release schedule yet, but expect infrequent updates that are made up of the original chapters but

    Unsure what to do with "Odyssey"

    So I'm going to preface this by saying that the point of this blog post is to gauge interest on whether this story should continue or not, and how that should go if I do. If you like the story and just want to see it continue then please let me know below. If you want to read into more of my thoughts on it and get an explanation for *why* it's been on hiatus for so long, then feel free to read

New chapter tomorrow · 4:18am Oct 17th, 2021

I know that the story's seemingly an updated version of something I had originally written a while ago, but while it retains the core story at least in the beginning, a lot of the content has been overhauled and updated, and the last part of the story is almost entirely new content. The chapters up until now have a lot of old content, but also a fair chunk of new content as well that better ties things together, gives better perspectives on what the characters are doing, and lines up with my original creative vision in a far better and more coherent way. Tomorrow's chapter starts the penultimate arc, and it's the first real part of the story that's entirely new, with no reworked pieces of what was there before. It's one of my favorite parts of the story, and hopefully you'll all enjoy it soon. As of tomorrow, there will be nine chapters left, including the epilogue, so the story should be wrapping sooner than later.

As of right now, I haven't gotten any feedback or comments on the story, and any that show up are just ghost comments from a very outdated iteration of the story that doesn't necessarily represent what exists now. If anyone's been following along, I would definitely love to hear your thoughts on the story, while a lot of it is similar to what was there before, the context and overarching narrative is entirely different. That's going to become very noticeable in the next leg of the story, and in it's follow up story which I'll possibly be posting in the near future depending on how things go with this. I still have stories to tell with these characters, and I'd really love to hear what people think of them, so please don't be afraid to share your thoughts, they genuinely mean the world to me.
