Hello followers… over the past few years I’ve been working on my own original story and it’s been formatted like an actual novel. I did kinda give up on traditionally publishing it as I realized life has other plans for me. I’ll still be writing. My original story is where my heart is at. That, and my relationships, career, and of course my future endeavors. I just want my work to be read. Not by my girlfriend or friends, but by random people on the internet. Idk, it makes me feel good. Traditional publishing is a huge headache and pain in the butt I heard. My story is supposed to be huge. A million words or more. Harry potter length, grim-dark genre, has heavily mature themes, but I’ll lack the time to actually work on it after the summer of 2025. Going to get a full time career, I’ll be an adult, my own man. Another thing I wanted to say is the reason I haven’t been updated the fics is because I’ve been so busy. Last year of college and my schedule is just booked. I’ve had no free time, and when I do, I hang out with my gf. My priorities come first yk. But once thanksgiving break comes around, I’ll work on grown to hate. I haven’t updated that fic in a while. Also, lmk ur thoughts on if I should post my original story on wattpad or not. I might just make a separate account for the original story tbh. I did post a small snippet of what the story is like, so check it out if u feel like it. Thanks for ur time!

New chapter for burdened by strength is out. I know I’ve been afk for a WHILE now. End of the chapter has an author’s note explaining the situation. It’s not even serious, just a reason why I haven’t updated anything. It’s summer vacation, gf’s out of state, I have no job atm, so I have all free time. Can’t make promises for consistent updates, but I shouldn’t be afk like how I was. That was too much, man.

Don't make julius turn into lucius in burdened by strength. I like the licita x julius ship you created. You might be able to create a little sister for asta and make julius his stepdad. Please try your best to not make julius into lucius.

I can neither agree nor disagree the Lucius part because I don’t want to spoil it. As for the sister part, you kinda read my mind and you made me backtrack on the spoiling part so there’s that. Keep in mind that all my work is supposed to be like pretty dark, so expect some sad stuff. Thanks for reading and actually reaching out though! Gives me a lot of motivation.

Health update! Been feeling great so far. So some of you smart fellas/fart smellas may have noticed that I did update “Grown to hate”. Nothing special about it, just wanted to let yall know. One thing I wanted to tell yall tho, next story I’m gonna update is “Burdened by strength” Unfortunately, for many of my “The boy without magic” fans there will be some time for the next chapter. Reason why is because I got too invested in “grown to hate” and then my drive for tbwm -“the boy without magic” sorta died, so I’m just waiting for ideas to just pop up in my mind. To add on, tbwm is not so dark, while my original story is ridiculously dark. “Burdened by strength” and “grown to hate” are both dark stories so you can take a guess why it writes comes these fanfics comes easy. I enjoy writing these fanfics though. I will not lie, tbwm got me into writing in the first place. So uhh, yeah.

“Why writing comes easy” made a typo

New chapter for grown to hate is published. Sorry for the wait everyone, I’ve been busy as hell. Summer is almost here so more time for my hobbies . Should I work on burdened by strength or the boy without magic now? I sorta want to work on burden by strength because The boy without magic is too wholesome for my taste. Need some edge.

@Xsponge1997 tbh updating burdened by strength would be better you gave a good opening for that story but never updated

Is there going to be an update for Grown To Hate?
          I’m curious if Liebe forgives Asta, if Asta goes mad dog at the nobles and royals at the banquet, and inches away from beheading Solid for dumping water on Noelle’s head only to stop to fight two magic knight captains to fang and talon (tooth and nail)

There will be an update. I’ve just been hella busy with my own original project and school. New chapter is halfway done and I might work on it this week.
