I think I'm going to discontinue the main story I've done for awhile. As it's been going on, the scope and vision I have for it is way to big for me to do right now without fucking it up. I want to do it right and I'll probably do it over again and hopefully better some far off time in the future, maybe a couple years from now. I plan on doing more subject based pieces for awhile and maybe some shorter stories to try and get better. That's about it, thanks.

I'm doing another work as well as the story I already have be cause I wanted to. It's going to be random shit I think is interesting, written in a incoherent stream of thoughts. I will still be doing my other story but I will occasionally write in the other when I feel like it. That's it, thanks.

Yo, I said I was going to get a chapter out every month and then followed that up with nothing for the month of December but I do plan on getting that done. I had the holidays then I had to go to Mexico for a week and a half to see my dad and then I got sick for like 6 days and he gave this fucking awful drink that had like honey and and onion and lemon and oh my God it was fucking nasty. That's not important but I feel I had to mention that. Anyways I was busy and sick for a bit but now I'm all good and I just got 500 words down. It felt pretty fluid when I was writing it and it looked alright when I read it so it's shaping up to be a 10/10 masterpiece and will brick whatever device you read it on because it totally won't be a 200 terabyte zip bomb. That's about it, thanks

I haven't posted anything new in a minute but I got finals week coming up soon but once I get to winter break I'll get 2 parts out at least. I remember when I used to get a chapter out every week but now I'm busy all the damn time so its been harder to get any sort of schedule. I'm gonna try to get at least one chapter out every month from this point forward. That's about it, thanks.

Yo, I moved like last month an hour away from where I lived and ive been busy with school again so its not like I forgot about writing or anything. I actually have about half of it done but I'm not really motivated right now so it'll be a while before I can muster up the rest of it. Also basketball is starting up again so imma be hella busy. I'll try to get the next part out in like 2 weeks or something idk I dont really have a schedule. I think I broke 140 so thats neat. Anyways that's about it, thanks.

Hey I got an idea for a short story. It just came to me right now and I'll have to do it sometime in the future. Probably once I get chapter 1 done on the current story but it'll happen eventually. Also since I know you'll probably comment on this JT you got any ideas for the name of the story since I basically got you writing this thing with how much you've helped with me out? Also if anyone else sees this give me an idea for a name. I doubt the once I got right now is a real eye catcher. That's about it, thanks.

@JTNestman I'll keep that in mind. You're right about it still being young in its development and although I know how it goes I still didn't give it much thought. Once I get the next part done I'll look into what to name it based off plot, thanks dude.

Well the name should probably have something to do with the main conflict or driving force behind the MC going through this adventure. Seeing as the book is still pretty early in its development, I mean chapter wise, it’s difficult for me to really know what would be fitting.
            My story, Hunting Darkness, is named what it is because I plays into the main plot. My characters are hunting down a cult that operates in the shadows.
            My other story, Fields of Ash, is titled as such because the world is in the middle of a war very reminiscent of WW1. There are no-mans-land lined with trenches and blackened earth from constant artillery barrages.
            Pick something that plays into your books theme. If you want to message me with options you’re considering I’d be happy to give my opinion on them. Best of luck!

You know, despite how small my story and and account is I have a lot of hope and aspirations for the future of whatever this turns into. I think that if I really stick with this I might be able to break 1k in reads one day waaaay down the line like a year or more but definitely possible.

I really like the ability to be creative, and yes I know that fantasy isnt exactly original but its my story and that makes it feel important to me. I really want to make stuff and create stories in any form because I always get like small ideas that kind of mesh into one bigger one over time from different places and experiences and I really hate the idea of those ideas not being acted upon or let die because they are forgotten. Even if I dont have the skill to execute these ideas to their full potential, I think it's at least worth the effort of trying. As I get a little older I want to try everything I like out while I still have the time and liberty to do so. I just felt like ranting but I'm not gonna do the thing that announces posts like these to followers because I dont necessarily want anyone to read this or anything I just want for it to exist. Im not sure if other people agree but I feel like interactions with other people on what I make or say is the most nerve-wracking part about making shit, not even wether or not what I made is good but rather the reaction to it. That's probably not a good mentality to have with this stuff but I do. As I mature and get used to writing it'll probably mean less to me what the reaction is. Anyways this is too long imma stop.
