A few days ago, The Bright Room hit 7k, and today, Reap The Whirlwind hit 5k views. 12k across my finished novels, yay!
          	
          	When I have a free moment, I'm gonna add an official playlist to RtW to celebrate--stay tuned for some old-school metal :)

I decided to take a shot at ONC. Maybe two shots, if I find enough time for wrapping another idea, still this February.
          
          The first one is already a bit of a letdown for me, personally, because I intended to finally write something else this time (well, it was a good start -- it bears some resemblance to a billionaire romance, in a very tone-deaf reading of the very beginning at least), but will be the same familiar combo of sci-fi, social commentary and weird erotica (less of that than usual, unless I get carried away)... with a little Die Hard and a little heist on the side.
          
          Oh well, maybe I'll manage completely different with the other ONC entry. 
          
          But for now, drum rolls...

I just watched Tron: Ares.
          
           It's a pretty mid movie, but there are some strangely familiar elements. Like a hot AI that loves 80s music and saves a nerdy action girl against its orders, and the simplistic but still valid messages that following orders is evil in itself, and relying on AI doing things for you will  bite you in the ass. Familiar? Well, it seems that Reap The Whirlwind is not such an oddball after all, more like hitting the Zeitgeist.
          
          Though Tron: Ares was a flop, and my book did not exactly take off either, so maybe not :)
          
          Of course, the movie is  PG and my book is a hard R; it is optimistic, while the book is bleak as hell; and it is quite badly written, while my book.... does not have Jared Leto in it.
          
           Though now I kinda regret that I didn't give Marvin a face :)
          
          Status update: Working on possible ONC entry, so my more permanent projects are still temporarily on hold.

@LemonyFrank Oh hi. Interesting, I'll check it later. I was actually starting to think about it, but I had no idea where to start. This is a great starting point!
            
            Thanks and see you soon! <3

@paleverse Hey, sorry I pop up so randomly on your board, I have an awful lot of work this month and am hardly on Wattpad. I came across a website that lists and ranks literary magazines (scroll down the page) and I thought of your short stories. Maybe you should try to submit to one of those places too: https://www.brechtdepoortere.com/  (me pushing Haute Cuisine again) See you soon <3
