You know, I'm wondering if I should do a regular weekly update? Seems like sometimes I posted several thigns back to back to back within a short timespan, then suddenly go quiet for a week or two at a time, heh. Might be good to just set a reminder to post at least once a week on a certain date. Hm…
So at this point, I'd estimate there are roughly 3-4 chapters left of In the Shadows of Kryckwood, and that's including the one I'm working on now. I've pretty much decided to do another kinda short episode with some bonding time and smaller adventures kind of like Quality Time next. I already know…
So I just realized that, as of this latest chapter I uploaded, MHO is officially over 500k words. That's long enough for a 2-3 proper novels at this point! XD Woo! Sure didn't think it'd end up this long, but hey, I'm enjoying writing it. I just hope my readers are still enjoying following the stor…
Just back into town from that week-long trip. Had a pretty nice visit to the Smoky Mountains with my family. Unfortunately... I don't have a finished chapter to upload just yet. Sorry! T_T; It just didn't go how I planned at all. I ended up having very little time to just sit down and write each da…
Just for fun, I decided to make a random poll. For those that have been reading MHO, which episode is your favorite so far? Vote here! Posted using PostyBirb
Just a little reminder, I do in fact have my own Discord server. I don't have a public invitation link though, so if you're interested in joining, just let me know and I'll send you a private link! Posted using PostyBirb
Figured I'd give another update on a couple things. First, I AM writing that scene extension I talked about for the end of the last episode, though I have a strong feeling at this point it may be left non-canon, so it'll be posted separately. I'll just have to gauge peoples' reaction and see how it…
....ooookay so this last TCotCI chapter has grown well beyond what I planned and I'll most likely end up splitting it in two. But hey, they should be uploaded pretty close to the same time, so I'll still be starting the next episode soon! Posted using PostyBirb
You know, it's funny how often random "bit"/"side" characters grow in my mind after I finish writing the scenes they're initially involved in. They're only supposed to play a small roll, then be out of the story, but I end up giving them more personality as I write them, which is a good thing sure,…
Don't worry, no real spoilers here! This is pretty general stuff, and I'd appreciate feedback. I'm hoping to wrap up The Cult of the Crimson Isles sometime within the next week or so. I'd originally planned on it being done over a month ago, if you can believe it! But you know how things go, stuff…
So for those that follow MHO, you know I love to tease how Lykou and Kuna definitely are developing feelings for each other but just haven't come to grips with it yet, and keep playing off their sexual/romantic tension as just "messing with each other"/their "fluster one another game". Fact is, the…
Soooo now comes the tricky bit. In the next chapter I'm going to be going into a bit more lore about demons in this setting, which is going to be a little tricky in itself. But luckily I think I've got it worked out, at least as far as this particular kind goes. The really tough thing I have to wor…
I all too often find myself looking at the view (or "hit" or whatever) count for the writings I upload on the sites that I do so, and wonder just how many of them represent people actually reading them. I know at least a few are bound to be bots, just indexing the page for some search engine or som…
Sooo... I'm doing my proofreading for chapter 4 of The Cult of the Crimson Isles, and it occurs to me I'm kinda bad about making certain dialogue-heavy scenes a bit... overlong, perhaps? @_@; As it sits now, I'm about halfway through proofreading it, and it's sitting at 8.5k+ words, and at least ha…
So yeah, after more consideration, I'm strongly considering swapping the position for Terrifying Tribulations and Deep Dark Wonders. I think it'd probably fit a bit better, and it'd put the creepy scary one a lot closer to October. The outline puts that at between 7 and 11 chapters between now and…
Hey everyone, I just wanted to give a little extra update blurb about MHO overall, especially since I'm planning to wrap up episode 4 with the next chapter. I have a whole rough outline for the coming chapters, for up to part/episode 12 so far (roughly), with a few general ideas for short adventure…
I decided to open up my server a little more, so here's a general invite if you're interested: https://discord.gg/PgVcCXYx Note that this link is good for one week only! If you do join, make sure to read the rules and follow the directions for gaining access to the rest of the server beyond just th…
I'm sitting here obsessively thinking about a shorter MHO episode/pair of chapters that's a couple adventures away yet. Also it'd be best saved for around Halloween time, but no way I'm gonna wait THAT long for it. (With any luck I should be nearing the end of the story by then, but who knows?) Gue…
Well, I finally done did it. :B I went and made a discord server! I just finished (mostly) setting it up. I still need to pick out some bots for role-assigning and such, but in the meantime, if you're interested in joining, let me know! (Note that I'm only taking people I know first, so if I've nev…
So for the next chapter or two, I thought I'd try a little something fun with anyone out there who's reading it. Without giving too much away, suffice to say there will be plenty of chit-chat/bonding time between the boys in the next couple of chapters. I already have some conversation topics, but…
So there's this music site/platform I used intermittently for yeeears (seriously, going all the way back to the mid-00s if not earlier, IIRC) that's called Di.FM (or Digitally Imported, as was its original full name). It's full of interesting channels for different genres and sub-genres of any kind…
Thinking about doing some tweaking to the way MHO is presented. For one thing, I do still plan to go back and clean up the first couple of chapters some, and add a prologue to give a bit more info about Lakefire, and the folks in Lykou's life. I'm uncertain about whether to do something similar for…
....so I can't remember the exact day I stopped, but I know I haven't played a single PC/video game since the early part of March of this year. That's about three months of no gaming of any kind. This coming from someone who's been gaming to some degree or other, at a bare minimum a few times a wee…
Lots of action and violence in these two. It was originally going to be one chapter, but it got way too long for that. Heck, even after splitting it, 35 is a pretty long one. But hang in there past the fighting! If Kuna and especially Lykou seem more aggressive than usual, you'll see there's a reas…
I just wanted to give folks a heads-up about this next MHO chapter. It's a doozy. Not only is it the longest yet, but it's also fairly violent. Mostly no worse than anything previously encountered, just a lot more of it. Hey, I told you action was coming! There are two short parts I'm slightly worr…
I hope I get the results from my sleep study back soon. I'm so tired of being exhausted all the time. I did find out from the hematologist the other day (after fainting from another unanticipated blood draw, wheee...) that I have low iron, which I honestly should have expected, given my diet. So no…
(Please excuse and disregard my vague-posting vent. And don't come looking to start an argument with me based on speculation about who and what this is about. Again, this is just a vent. I'm specifically posting this on mostly sites where I don't really have much of a following anyway.) Of course T…
And now all four sites I upload MHO to are officially up to date! Hope you enjoy reading it! Feedback is very much appreciated. ^^ Looks like I may have to tweak the way I do uplaods though. I wish Postybirb had a direct-text upload option for literary works, since each site has different preferenc…
So I finally broke down and decided to try Pandoc to batch-convert all my odt files into md files so that it'd play nice with more sites It was wayyyy more of a pain in the ass than it should have been. And to make matters worse, it didn't even work correctly! For whatever reason, it's only reading…
This is just a test to see how Postybirb works out. If all goes well, I will begin updating on multiple sites more regularly. Posted using PostyBirb
Hello, Weasyl! So I've had this account for ages, but it's been mainly sitting here gathering dust for most of that time. I figured I may as well start using it. For those that don't know me, I've been poking around the online furry world since '01 or so, although I mainly lurked until about '02 or…
