ROUGH EDGES FULLY COMPLETE
With the sheer amount of time I’ve gone completely silent, I very much doubt anyone here still remembers I exist or that this project was a WIP for the past year or so lmao.
Either way, Rough Edges has been fully reworked and now sits at 95k words and 37 chapters!!! It’s basically a whole new novel atp ngl
Will be releasing chapter by chapter starting tomorrow!
Rough Edges rewrite.
Act 1: The Crow
9 chapters.
24k words.
Tomorrow.
Chapter 1 of the Rough Edges rewrite is OUT!!
Please note that although a large part of the plot has been reworked, the beginning and ending stays roughly the same. Hence, please don't be surprised that the first chapter flows almost identically to the original; the plot will start to go in its own direction soon, but not immediately.
ALSO! I credited a bunch of my OGs in the Special Thanks section. Do you see your name in there somewhere? Let me know if I missed anyone!
SO
I’ve just realized that with my current skill in writing, there is absolutely no way I’d be able to deliver my original ideas for Serenade and Fugue without it absolutely flopping. Unless I get some massive inspiration now, I might have to delay it until I gather enough experience.
I don’t want to be doing this either. The word document is already longer than Feux d’artifice. But I won’t allow myself to give up on making it perfect and uploading a half-hearted piece of crap, because you guys honestly deserve better.
I’ll do my best to salvage what I can from it, but chances are, it won’t come out until much later.
I’m sorry.
Hey!
I’m proud to announce that Serenade and Fugue, my most recent novel, is now in its final stages of development and will be ready for publishing in a month or two.
The first chapter will be published once this account hits 50 followers!
Also, several of my beta readers have asked about my decision to depict the characters as humans instead of furries in the upcoming novel.
This is because I feel like my writing has improved to the point where I want to try to promote it beyond the furry community. HOWEVER, the species of the main characters carries little to no significance to the plot, so if you guys prefer, I could make an alternate version of the book cover where they are depicted as furries instead.
Thank you guys for sticking with me in the early stages of my writing career, and I promise that there will be a lot more to come in the future! :3
As someone who has had in sights into the development of the later stages of the book, I can also confirm that this book is not for the light of heart.
I'm not gonna read it because I'll never look at KTSN the same again if I did
As one of his beta readers I think I should establish that this book is NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART
Like this was the first book I’ve read that made me genuinely feel queasy
Okay the fanfiction is out lmao
If you’ve read any of my stuff, there’s a good chance you’ve also noticed the furry novel named Cake, by Klondikehazel.
Well guess what?
On April fool’s, he announced an nsfw chapter for the story, later confirming it was intended as a joke, to which I replied “fine, I’ll do it myself”.
SURPRISINGLY, he granted me permission to do it, as long as all due credit is given.
SOOOOO!!
CAKE NSFW FANFIC BY KTSN_3 COMING SOON LMAO
Stay fucking tuned
@KTSN_3 OMFG LMAOOOOOO, I fucking binge read cake about a week ago and need to binge read the 2nd book if it. Cake has and is one of my favorite books of probably all time
Do you ever think you might make a full on sequel to "Rough Edges"? I absolutely fell in love with the book. It was an amazing read and I loved every bit of it so I'm hoping that sense you did a prequel (which I'm going to probably binge read in the next day or so) I'm hoping to maybe see a full book on a sequel. Once again, an amazing and beautiful story, in my opinion you have great talent as a writer.
@SomeNutJob Hi! I'm so glad you liked my novel, it was the first one I've ever fully finished. Looking back at it now with a couple years of experience, I realize how cringe it actually is in certain parts, so if I ever were to work on the series again, it would probably be to re-write certain chapters of the book, or to slightly alter the storyline so it flows a little more naturally. HOWEVER, you'll be pleased to hear that I do have SOME sequel material planned. I can't spoil too much since A) nothing is set in stone yet, I'm still trying to figure out how it would go, and B) you haven't read the prequel yet, and part of the basis of the sequel will involve new characters introduced in the prequel. Hope you'll enjoy the prequel! It's better than the first book imo.
Hi!
First of all, I'd really like to acknowledge everyone who enjoyed Rough Edges and its prequel. They was my first fully completed novels, and I posted it feeling really insecure and uncertain as to whether or not people would like it. And I'm proud to announce that, while limited compared to a lot of other furry novels on this platform, the feedback I got was largely positive. I got such a boost in confidence from you guys, so thank you!
THAT BEING SAID...
I am ALSO proud to announce a new semi-romance book currently in the works and will be released within the next couple of months.
It follows a violin prodigy as he finally achieves his dream of going to one of the world's top music conservatoires after a hellish time at his previous school. There, he meets new people, gets involved in exciting events... but he can't quite shake the feeling that everything is a little too perfect. His rationale tells him nothing is wrong, but his inability to trust says otherwise. Has he really escaped the purgatory of his former life, or has he simply gone out of the frying pan and into the fire?
I sincerely hope you enjoy my new, soon-to-come, standalone novel:
SERENADE AND FUGUE.
@KTSN_3 SERENADE AND FUGUE???? MAN THIS IS GONNA BE SICK, I can already tell from the title alone I've studied classical music in the past so I'm familiar with the structure of an introduction and allegro... so I'm guessing the title foreshadows the flow of the story. But a serenade as an intro and leading into a fugue? Under normal circumstances I'd assume this is a romance that leads into unexpected circular storytelling (considering the classical structure of a fugue) but then I also realized that the word fugue has a secondary meaning... Something tells me this story will be pretty traumatic.
Please, someone bring more attention to Feux d'Artifice LMAO
I've worked harder on it than the first book and it's much better imo because of how much I've improved
