Save Scumming - Chapter Twenty-Three

Magic!

So... yeah, we see the foundations of magic here. I think that this is a pretty cool system? But I'd love feedback on it. Obviously, MC is gonna test things out at home in the next chapter. Probably won't learn too much, since... well, no teacher or guidance except for some text documents, but still. A few hours of prac...

Fluff - Volume Four - Chapter Thirty

They spent the night scouting, for a certain definition of the word. Emily was just happy that they made it back without being caught.

Still, it hadn’t been a fruitless endeavor. She’d gotten the opportunity to walk all the way around the base that the HRF were occupying. Not from too close...

This chapter ended up a smidge short, but it was covering something kind of boring, and I didn't want it to linger too long. Anyway! MC ranked up~ Almost? She's on the cusp!

Now... let's meet some of her new coworkers and maybe learn a little more about how magic works!

Dead Tired - Volume Four - Chapter Three

Chapter Three

The preparations for the Grand Tournament began slowly and quietly. There were several meetings, but these were private and out of sight of the common person. Then, the announcement came.

Save Scumming - NEW Chapter One

Rewrite! The old prologue wasn't doing it for me. Too much information that was fluff, not enough angst and action. Lemme know if this one's better?

It was widely accepted that magic was complicated.

It was one of those ‘no duh’ kind of facts that people just took for granted beca...

I got back home a bit after Lucy and discovered her slumped back on the couch, looking exhausted.

“You good?” I asked.

“Hmm,” she replied before cracking one eye open. “I gave a speech.”

“Was it good?” I asked. 

“It was great,” she replied. View Post

Psilocybin Two

Going from the pristine Academy back to the slums was always disconcerting. First, the city didn’t make any efforts to make it easy. 

The trolley system through the city didn’t lead into the worse parts. It, in fact, made a point of going around. I’d seen one stop simply be removed from th...

Apparently I’d ‘captained’ too much for one night, so my friends and crew told me to take a day off.

I did a lot of reworks on the Gdocs for the early parts. The MC needed more personality. So... I made her more of a (horny) punk!

Highlights include:

I stood up with a bounce. I was feeling twitchy, and it felt like my adrenaline was spiking even though I wasn’t doing anything.

Thanks to my job as a writer, I haven't had to sit in on an interview in a long time.
