Northward has made it to the short-list. I'm so surprised oh my goodness! Yay :D

IT'S FINALLY COMPLETE. I have now finished Northward, my ONC entry for this year (it almost hit the word limit lol). Anyways, this story is a dark fantasy story set in a broken world (maybe more literally than you think) where things are...not quite what they seem. If that sounds interesting to you, feel free to check it out. I can now collapse and relax now that it's been submitted before deadline xD

          It has been a while since I have seen such an interesting, unique, and heart wrenching setup for a story. It's got a sweeping mystery held balanced by some very real, very human interpersonal relationships. And the worldbuilding I would say is top notch. Terms and places that might seem confusing gets slowly unraveled as each perspective adds something new, an additional context, a piece of history. I won't spoil much but I will say that it is definitely worth the read if anyone is interested in the fantasy genre, especially its darker aspects. Also, there's cats, sandcats, a term that conjures up some very cute, very heartwarming images. Overall, I can't wait to see where it goes!

Whelp. Time for me to jump onto the ONC train and this time, writing a fantasy book. A shocker coming from a mostly sci-fi writer I know but it's new and fun. My aim is to write a non-romance based fantasy and maintain a focus on character development and world building :D

WOOO I have finally finished my ONC novella! It's 19 chapters long and honestly, a piece with the most amount of symbolism I have put into it.
          
          If you are interested in a story depicting the regaining of intelligence by a rudimentary AI in a broken camera, a post human setting, explorations of grief and cats, feel free to check it out. I will be working on a few more announcements as time goes by which addresses Indisposable Trash and maybe another story idea so watch out for those.

Hi, I know I've been a little absent. I've decided to see if I can participate in the ONC. It's a sci fi story in a post human world where there everything is in the perspective of a camera. A little strange right?
          
          As for my other projects...I feel like I need a little break. Life just went sideways and busy all at once and the ONC is basically a concealed rant about grief lol. 
          
          Anyways that's about it. I have some things to do for indisposable trash but I'll announce that later

I should probably notify people here as to why things suddenly stopped. There were two factors: 1) I found that deadlines are not very motivating for writing regularly and most importantly...
          2) On the 22nd of December 2023, my grandmother passed away. I'm currently on break as I help organise the final parts of the funeral. I am not sure when I will come back but I'll let you guys know. At this point in time, writing isn't possible. My apologies in advance and thank you for your understanding.

Hi all. I have started my NaNoWriMo project, since I need a break from my mains and since this was something I wanted to do for years but never had the time to. If you are interested in horror and sci-fi given flavour by time loops, this may be a story for you. Warning though, there are some...disturbing depictions of well...being infected by a cosmic parasite so if that does not jive with you, do not read the story.
