One dick. Not sure whether I’m happy or sad about that. I guess it’s fine. I’m a dragon, not a ‘real’ lizard. I might not even be cold-blooded. I’m probably a scaly mammal. I don’t really know yet.
Continue reading“Oh my God, it’s so good~!” I bit down on the squirming giant fish and ripped out another chunk of meat! It was a perch, I think? Something shiny and silvery on the outside, but delicious and pink meat on the inside. It’s funny because when I was a human, I would feel bad about killing a cockroach, yet I was totally fine with tearing apart a living fish now.
Revenge clouds guilt and empathy. A useful emotion.
Continue readingA 32 year old author gets Isekai’d into one of his own stories… As a dragon. The problem is that it’s one of the many stories that he never got around to writing in his last life. Sure, he knows a ton of backstory, hidden lore and even secrets about Gods or Devils, but he’s not even sure what planet he’s on!
On the positive side, he’s a dragon now. That’s awesome. On the other hand, he might have some minor mental issues to deal with…
Very Minor.
Yes, very minor. Almost inconsequential. In fact, one might say that he was perfectly sane for a dude that just got reborn as a dragon in what very likely could be a Hell Dimension of his own design.
We will survive.
“Otherwise this is gonna be a pretty short story. And I hate short stories.”
Continue readingI initially planned to publish this way back in July, then got pushed to August, then I finally did it the other day, but then I made some mistakes… Like the paperback not having numbered pages or the hardcover’s cover art looking weird. As of writing this, the previews for both versions still look like they’re messed up in those ways. But as far as I know, it should be fine. The changes in review took a while, basically a day, but now they should be fixed. Hopefully lol.
Either way, I’m gonna do it. I’m gonna buy copies of my own book, again. For the first time in like… 7 years. Technically my brother bought a hardcover of The Diary of Destiny King and I signed it for him. My mother also signed as the illustrator. I took pics and stuff but I’m worried about posting them, because uh… Mysterious reasons.
Anyway, so the moral of the story is that I did it. I actually finally published Black Mithril after writing and posting it on Royal Road Legends like 10 years ago. Seriously, 10 years… 2014 feels like a lifetime ago, but I still remember it surprisingly clearly sometimes.
After Black Mithril, I’m going to be publishing Greenstone, Volume 1 of The Cursed Words, then 235, Volume 2 of The Cursed Words. At least I’m pretty sure that’s how I’ll do it. We’ll see what happens.
I’m editing HCOP to publish as well, but I’m not totally sure how I’m gonna do that. Might break it down into mini-books lol. Like Arcs, similar to how Manga do things. I mean, that’s how I originally wrote the story.
I’m not sure whether that would sell better or worse than big, chunky books, but the main reason for breaking up HCOP into smaller pieces is because of how ‘dangerous’ some of the content might be for Amazon Kindle. If you’re a fan, you know what I mean.
It’s the same reason I’m worried about trying to publish Danica’s Monster on Kindle, which is a smut that includes necro, loads of gore, cannibalism, uh… That’s it, maybe? I guess it’s not that big of a deal. There’s definitely much worse on Amazon, but I’m still always afraid of getting hit by random bans or whatever. Heard too many horror stories about publishing on KDP.
I also made a Barnes and Noble account, and a Draft2Digital account, though I haven’t published anything on either site yet. Still mainly working on KDP since I’m more familiar with it.
“So anyway~! I think I scrubbed away most of the rads by now. I gotta head home before my parents figure out I’ve been using the Asura Box without their permission again…”
Continue readingA huge black and yellow wasp was zooming through the complex and dark tunnels, occasionally it would crash into a wall and pass straight through. Other times, it would get stopped by the glowing green crystals inside or crash into random ghosts that were loitering around. Of course, normal spirits would be torn to shreds without even slowing the Legendary Entomologist Wraith down slightly!
Continue reading“Crystal of Verde Village, my granddaughter, I summon you to Jimmy’s Pawn Shop on West Baldo Street!”
Continue readingAside from that, I also signed it up for Kindle Unlimited or whatever it’s called. So if you have that, you can read the whole thing for free. If not, it’s three bucks, but I think I signed up for some uh… Discount where it’s gonna be .99 cents for a week? I don’t remember the week though. Maybe in August?
I don’t really know. I can’t remember. But that’s beside the point. I’ve been thinking a lot about turning my other stories into actual physical books lately. I always put it off because I had other priorities, still kinda do, plus it’s annoying to buy or create book covers. Not to mention the time and effort it takes to seriously edit some of my older stories like Immortal Soul and HCOP.
Also, the rules about offensive content and NSFW stuff on Kindle are harsh, so I’d be publishing those other stories on like Smashwords or something. Either way, I figured I should make a post here before I totally forget about it and get distracted by the next thing that happens(It’s always something lol).
“Aww~! How’d you die, Peri?! Was it Verna?”
“What? No, of course not!” Peridot snickered and scratched her messy blonde hair, the hardhat had already long since disappeared. Then she sighed and explained, “It was the freaking government! We were assassinated by a freaking Legendary Anthropologist! I mean, we killed him eventually, but Ollie was dying… So I saved him. I hope.”
Peridot looked at the golden coin in her hand. There was a skeleton head on one side and a mountain on the other. There were also words, ‘Greenheart City Gold Dollar’, ‘Greenstone Mountain Legal Tender’, ‘Property of Greenstone Mountain’, ‘Minted in 4187’.
