Balance
Vs. Dracula

Steeplechase
Amnesty
Ethersea

Graduation
Abnimals

The gaps between the three tiers of seasons is intentional and vast. I had to put some thought into which Travis season I thought was worse.

How did you like the live show? I'm only half an hour in so far, so I can't comment. Actually, how did you like Vs. Dracula overall?

There's a reason a lot of people call Marche the villain of that game.

This is far from the biggest issue with this season, and it was nice hearing Johnathon Colton again after so long, but how could they be at "the height of their powers" if there's an exp system?

I both empathize and feel the same way. On one hand, I know you're way worse off than I am right now, and I wish I could do more to help besides Patreon money. On the other hand, I've written 12 novels and 5 screenplays! I'm in my mid-forties! I don't want to shout into the void anymore!

I'm slowly trying to work my way back to regular writing despite the whole ... you know, everything. No actual progress in fiction today, but I've got my genie wish down and ready to print!

Here are Natie, Buster and Chester. This is the only picture I got of them sharing the bed together like this.

I value you and all the work you do. Outside of your Patreon, please let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

Here's a question for writers doing pitches to agents today. Are you focusing on one project? I have another book I'm pretty proud of, but it's only on its 1.5 draft so far, and there's another book series I'm more focused on.

Infinity Test:
Seth never expected to be a hero, but when cosmic beings decided "Ehh, he'll do," and tossed him onto a ruined wasteland of a planet, he has to grow beyond the comic relief he thought he was and find help across infinite realities to stop a trillions-year old threat.

I'm sort of between book projects as I finish some personal stuff before writing book 5 of my main series. But the first book of the series is refined enough that I've pitched to literary agents before, so I'll give it a shot today.

Oh, right, duh. Of course, I should mention my own damn website. I'm still working on the "social presence" thing.

Though, for the record, of all that, maybe half of the novels and screenplays are ones I'd be willing to show anyone not in my immediate family. The early stuff before I found my voice was rough. I also have a bunch of video game design documents from when I wanted to get into that more.

Oh, there's that. For people who aren't my friends and thus haven't been annoyed enough about it from me, I'm a writer looking to find an agent and get published. I wrote about 12 novels, five screenplays, and a tabletop RPG systems.

I'm new here and still figuring it out. But with twitter dead and Facebook decaying, I might as well get started. I'll chat about my life and writing and whatnot here when something interesting comes up to say.
