@GeneralZarax
Happy New Years to you all!
Now I'm gonna crash so I'll drop some stuff tomorrow
@GeneralZarax Happy New Year! All the best for 2026! I'm sure it's going to be great ^^
Merry late Christmas everyone!
Been out of town enjoying life. So I haven't been able to do much here or otherwise. Certainly hope you all had a good Christmas. The year's end is just around the corner. I must say this has been quite a fast one if you ask me.
I will try and get an art post tomorrow. Along with that I'll drop the next overdue chapter.
Anyways I'm incredibly tired. So bye
@GeneralZarax Merry Christmas! Hope you had a great day! Our Christmas was pretty quiet, but nice. 2025 has definitely passed in a blur, can't believe there's only three days left! Looking forward to seeing what you post in your art book too! I got some fancy watercolour felt-tip pens for Christmas this year. Figured I'd try drawing Willow with them - it wasn't pretty! Still, I'm sure I'll have time to practice next year. I'll be wishing you a great new year too ;)
Hello, hello!
Alright so after waaaaay too long the next chapter is finally out. Too short for the wait behind it. So I plan to drop the next one sometime soon. Writing for me has unfortunately slowed down a bit.
Finals approach and I've been caught with way too much stuff to do. The stress is annoying and it plagues my work. That and other things have kept my mental state a little frayed. Nothing I can't deal with but nothing I can ignore.
Other than my wavy life patterns, I've been for the most part fine. Frustrated, but still sailing. If I can some up the last week or two in a word 'meh'
But I'm happy to say that the chapter I just dropped should bring my story to it's 100 thousand word mark. What a milestone! For reference the first draft of this story totaled at 77 grand. I'm still not near done!
I really never expected to get this far when I first started typing this story out. So I'm glad to all of you who stood by as long as you have. It truly means a lot to me.
Anyways, enough chit chat, it's late and I am tired. So good whatever time of day it is. I shall speak to you all again! Till then!
@GeneralZarax Looking forward to it! Glad to hear you got through your finals too. I'm sure you'll do great :)
@DragonsDwelling Thank you, I got many milestones on the way. Really excited for that 10K reads one. Finals ended today. And I'm completely fried from it. I haven't had my head throbbing like this since I whacked it on my desk! At least I did good on them. So the stress was worth it. I'm certainly looking forward to enhancing the writing behind these stories. As much as I pride myself in my first novel, it has its flaws. I love it regardless! I'll read your own story sometime tomorrow. Really wanted to today but I have been busy. Well, have a great one and talk to you sometime soon!
@GeneralZarax Congratulations on reaching 100k words! You've almost reached 10k views too! Good luck with your finals, hope it all goes well and you get a chance to enjoy the festive season. I'm definitely looking forward to where The Dragon Ring series goes from here ;)
I'm not dead guys!
Though I am busy. Life happens and some weeks are longer than others. Also I procrastinate a lot. A bad habit I am actively trying to break.
Anyways the next chapter finally dropped. It's a short one so I plan to drop another relatively smaller chapter in only a week. I have a few chapters of backlog. Though not much so don't expect me to start getting generous; as much as I would like to.
On another note I'm messing around with coding again! Albeit on that scratch site so it's not full credit (I'm NOT getting into that stuff). Writing books is enough, I don't need to write scripts. No clue if I'll go 100% with this little game thing. But if I do I suppose I will update you all on that.
Not much else to say. Hope you all are having fun out there.
Till next time!
@GeneralZarax Good to hear from you :) Good luck with your coding too, I'd love to try out whatever game you make! I think Littlebigplanet is about as close as I'm ever going to get to making my own game
I got some catching up to do
It's out at last. Chapter 32. The first glimpse into dragon society.
It took way to long to get this out. But know that I now have some resemblance of backlog and I'm writing just a bit more now. Cranking in about 500-800 words a day. Sometimes a bit more. The train is going once again!
On another note my internet has been driving me insane. It's been going on and off and on and off. That's why I release this so late (Where I am at least)
Not much more to say than that. Enjoy the chapter, the good stuff is coming!
Other than that, great days to you all!
@GeneralZarax Glad to hear you're good. Looking forward to revisiting Ardentis too. Hope your Internet settles down a bit XD
Chapter 31 is up and ready for reading. Nothing much too interesting. The good stuff is coming up real soon though.
However I make this announcement to say that I'm out of backlog. Which means chapters come out whenever I feel they are finished. And my schedule has less time to write than last year, so it will be a bit slow. I'm sorry to anyone who liked my weekly schedule. I quite liked it.
But alas. This is a very annoying year for writing. Know I still work on this book. Every day. Even if it's just a few hundred or so words.
On another note I'm gonna start updating the art book again. Figured out how to get some photos imported and very recently I went on a big drawing spree. So expect to see some of those.
Thank you all for your patience! You're truly the best
Have a great day!
Till next time!
@GeneralZarax Keep at it, you're doing great ;) Things are slowing down for me too since coming back from my holiday. I definitely don't think I'll manage more than one chapter this month... Looking forward to seeing some more of your art book though. And I hope you're having a great day too!
Ooooh happy late birthday to meee!
It was last Sunday. But I've been crazy busy this week. So after way too much delay I am glad to announce that A Man and a Beast is back in business! The first chapter of the third part dropped several minutes prior to me writing this.
As I thought, my horrid burnout is for the most part annihilated. That break really helped. So expect to see this book done. Sooner or later.
However, this time around I might not be doing my week by week schedule. I'm not really walking into this with 12 chapters of backlog. Currently all I got is two. So until I can build a safe foundation. I'm going to be updating the book twice a month. That's every two weeks. I certainly hope I can somehow squeeze in a third and maybe even 4th a month. But I really don't know with what life has been throwing at me.
So I really thank you all for your patience and kind words. I'll see you all around!
Great day to you all!
@GeneralZarax Happy Birthday again :) Hope it was great! Glad to hear that you've gotten through the last of your burnout too. Good luck with the rest of your rewrite!
tomorrow I have a very big announcement to make. While I would have liked to get it done today, or even on Sunday, I have been extremely busy as of late. And tomorrow I finally get some free time. So prepare yourselves. For it will feature the future of my book! (Which don't worry. It's a good future for those who want to see it's end)
Happy Birthday Zarax!
Hope you're having a great day :)
Thanks man! That means far more to me than you think.
While the day has only just started over here, I know it's gonna be a blast! And so I wish you a great day as well!
