Happy October, everyone! Crazy we're already entering the final quarter of 2024, been a year of change for me, to be certain. 
          
          Anyways, chapters 4 & 5 of Miracle at Mejanno are up, looking forward to seeing what ya'll think! I've been thrilled with the warm reception for the book so far, so thanks to all who have already been showing my new work some love! Have a blessed day, everyone <3

Wasn't sure whether I'd be making one of these announcements on Wattpad again, but today's a good day, because here we are! I've just launched a new book on here! 
          
          THE LAST PROPHECY is a new book series I'm working on, projected to be five volumes long, and MIRACLE AT MEJANNO is the story to kick it off with. If you're interested in a fantasy adventure set in an African-inspired setting as opposed to the typical faux-Europe that's so common, this is the book for you! 
          
          Follow the exiled prince Zakkai as he embarks on a quest to find belonging and home in a land troubled by old foes rebirthed, training with a grizzled warrior to fight for the very soul of the savannah. Fans of my Reformation Wars series should find this tale a fun read while also offering something different. Look forward to hearing what ya'll think!
          
          (Also, ignore my...questionable attempt at a cover made from shuffling elements in Canva; getting a real face for the book is something I need to do at some point, lol)
          
          Anyways, hope to see some of you in the (web) pages of my new book, and with three chapters posted today, I have two more scheduled for next week, and then it should be one per week until done. Link below, Falcon out!

@amayzed  Thanks! I honestly don't hate how this cover looks at all, just feel it doesn't have the sparkle an actual graphic designer could put on it. I also think a silver and red theme would work better with the vibe of the book; green and gold fits better with one of the forthcoming volumes. XD

@flamesword01 you can’t go wrong with a simple cover, it looks great in the meantime!

Random Falcon thought #367
          
          What're some fruits even thinking, having poisonous seeds/cores as a defense mechanism? Like "oh no, you ate me, absolutely demolished my flesh, but joke's on you, even though I'm dead now, I'm still gonna get my revenge on your insides!" Actual troll energy.

Should I look into entering the Wattys this time around?

@flamesword01 -  I'm debating that, myself. On the one hand, I like the way it looks like I can check multiple boxes for all the various ways underrepresented populations get representation. Also, it tickles me pink to know that something as fundamentally and extremely unmarketable as _Ancilla_ will be read by at least one judge, and that judge will probably find my work confusing as hell. On the other hand, I'm worried about my contest submission being used to train AI to write Wattpad "originals." AI screws us all over, even though it can sometimes be very helpful by providing writing prompts, giving us spelling and grammar checks, etc.
            
            Blast it, why can't Wattpad let us GRAMMAR EDIT our comments?
