The Novel
Plot: The plot focuses on an unnamed depressed apathetic writer experiencing writer's block. After the success of his critically acclaimed debut novel, The Novel, he runs out of ideas to write for another masterpiece. He goes on a journey, even having to do things he wouldn't normally do just for the sake of getting ideas, just to reclaim his lost creativity, and he also reflects his experiences in life and love. The novel is part satire, part philosophical, due to its existentialist blend inspired from the works of Camus, Sartre, Dostoyevsky, and Kafka with a mix of my trademarks—surreal and dark humor, violence, parody, satirical commentary, horror and shock value, depression, and nihilism. Genre: Transgressive Fiction, Absurdist Fiction R-Rated. For mature readers only. (as usual)Complete
The Eldritch Trials
Mac has to save the world and complete the Eldritch Trials to prevent unspeakable horrors from escaping the netherworld. That's going to be complicated considering everyone thinks the Chosen One is his cousin, and he's already dying from at least three curses. This is fine. Magical fantasy/satire. This is kind of a parody of chosen one/fantasy genre's. Basically if you want a Harry-Potter esque magical world, but narrated like the Percy Jackson books, not unlike What We Do in the Shadows level satire, then this is for you. Trigger/Content Warning: a character experiences severe suicidal ideation through first person narrative. Adoption issues are discussed at length.Complete
