Well, this is my first time stubbing a fiction on RR. We almost got through 6 entire books before I stubbed it, so I count that as a win. 1.1m words, the first ~50 of which just got nuked from low Earth orbit. (I just pressed a button a few times, but you know).
This whole thing has been super-duper weird. N&D was written as a way for me to get away from writing dark fantasy and romance. When I first started, I said to myself "I want a story where nothing happens. This guy just makes potions." I know that's not where I ended up, but a lot of other things have changed. N&D hit Rising Stars just as I was about to stop writing it. The readership grew and some people said they really liked it. (There's even some fan art, if you can believe it). Even further down the road, I was ready to close N&D out at Book 4. An individual (who knows who they are) told me to hound a certain publisher about picking the book up, and they bought 7. freewebnøvel.com
The past 2 years have been a blur, I'll be honest. N&D is very hard to write.... in bursts. Which is how I normally write fictions. Block out two weeks, and make as much as I possibly can. But maintaining my 3 chapters every week schedule helped me learn how to switch between projects at the same time. I've learned even more about setting expectations, the importance of selecting a narrow cast, how to design a system that makes sense from Level 1 to the cap, and my desire to always have a goblin-like character in every story (cough cough, Tresk).
If you encounter this narrative on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.
I like writing. I'm gonna keep doing it. Even as I'm trying to learn dictation (it isn't going very well at all) to relieve some hand pain, I'll always find a way to write. And then I'll dump it here or Amazon.
Perhaps you've noticed, but I've always removed "Summon the Great Spirits" from my page. While I thought that story was interesting, I only had like 30 chapters and the realization that it could be a better story. I've rolled that into another story that I'm going to release here... once I rewrite some stuff... Yeah.
Anyway, thanks for coming along for the ride. If you're new here, or if you've been riding shotgun for two years, thanks for reading.
