Hello everyone. This is a but of a bittersweet announcement but I think it needs to be said. Some important news to break the silence.
Sad news first, until further notice the Mortance series is to be discontinued, as well as any other creative writing of that kind from me. It's been great writing in that world with all those characters, and I'm really proud of what I was able to create and that some people even somehow enjoyed reading it, but that era has come to an end. All the characters, especially Aurora, mean so much to me, and I'm sad not to be writing then anymore, but it's just faded for me. That energy is elsewhere, for better (hopefully) or worse.
That brings me to the better news. If it wasn't obvious in how I wrote Aurora, I'm a musician. I play guitar and a few other instruments. During spring of this last year, my creative energy shifted to writing music and I kinda wrote an album which may have saved me from going insane. I plan to have it recorded and released sometime in 2024 (recording is expensive, but I'm working on it). While that's in the works, I'm dropping music with one of my bands very soon. Shoot me a message on here if you wanna follow up on any of that please, would be neat.
Anyways, last part of the announcement is an actual announcement. Before I wrote the album, I wrote a little short story that takes place in the extensive lore of Ert, some twelve-hundred years before the events of Mortance. Personally I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, and I thought Wattpad might be a better place for it than my google drive. It's in two parts, and I'll be dropping part 1 later this week so stay tuned everyone. There's a good chance that short story will be the last we see of the world of Ert, so thank you all for reading and giving my characters a space in your mind, even if they never got to finish their journey. I apologize to anyone who was invested. Stay tuned for Steelborn.
