Happy Monday!
          
          Chapter 1 of Book 2 in my 9th Arms series is posted!
          
          This 3 part series is complete, and it took me two and a half years to write. It has gone through many revisions and iterations, and I think, in the end, my intention was simply to leave something of myself behind. It is dense in places, I’ll admit, though the original draft was far longer. I’m rewriting it now, chapter by chapter, tightening the structure while expanding the lore.
          
          This story may struggle to find its audience because it moves across genres. It sits at the intersection of sci-fi, speculative fiction, fantasy, and psychology. If you’re unsure where to begin, I recommend the expanded universe short stories “Other,” “The River,” and “Conjugal Upgrade.” They offer a clearer sense of the worlds and ideas that shape the series. Structurally, the narrative is divided into three books based on setting: Earth, Nyxoria, and Sunsire. Because of that, the tone and genre shift with each environment. Even choosing tags has been difficult, so I ask for a bit of grace and a willingness to follow Stoker where the story leads.

I’m excited to announce that Book 1 of The 9th Arm, Inamorata, is now fully published.
          
          If you like the grounded, character-driven depth of Game of Thrones, layered with elements of science fiction, slow-burn love stories, and the inner psychology of men unfolding beneath the surface, this series was written with that in mind.
          
          It follows Stoker across Earth, the utopian world of Nyxoria, and the medieval realm of Sunsire, where each setting strips something away and forces him to confront his past, his humanity, his sexuality, and his limits without illusion.
          
          If you’re looking for something immersive, deliberate, and a little unsettling in how closely it examines human nature, give it a chance and share it with your friends.
