Novel: The Underachiever

I’m excited to announce that my novel The Underachiever has been published by the New York-based publisher Spuyten Duyvil! Synopsis: A critically acclaimed author who has already published two successful novels finds himself haunted by dissatisfaction and paralyzing self-doubt. Desperate to match the literary brilliance of Cortázar, Pynchon, and Nabokov, the unnamed writer embarks on a creative…

Hello!! I just played mushroom oasis today and I must say I'm a big fan of the game! I think the banter between Mychael and the mc is so charming, the development of their relationship feels so natural (despite maybe the uhhh. manipulation that may be happening) but yes I find it all very enjoyable!! I'm excited to see what more you have planned 💖

Aaa thank you for the kind words!! Having it feel natural is always important to me, especially with it being a slow burn so that means a lot!! Since I'm done with the recent game jam I'm excited to get back into continuing development for Day 4 once I get my ducks in a row!!

can’t currently afford the print copy of the fabulous @lackadaisycats work?

maybe your local library will buy it in the meantime! hand for scale.

reading a hard copy of what I found years ago on the internet is cool in its own right, but the over 20 pages of bonus content are what’s really tempting.

note about the back cover: this is what was facing out as I carried the book in my arm out of the library and into the streets. certainly didn’t make me look like a psycho I’m sure.

Chapter 7 + Ash Hangout Public Update is now live! 🎉

The Chapter 7 and Ash Hangout update is finally here 🔥😁 I'm sorry for the slight delay, I had something urgent to attend to today and I just got home and I just basically went straight to my computer to upload this update.

Finally, we are starting to get into the ROs' first hangout sessions. Of course, to start us off, we'll have Ash's hangout session 😁This update adds around 31K of new words, bringing the total word count so far to around 356,701K words!

Anyway, this update also brings quite a lot of changes in the coding, especially for the skip chapter function, so I'm going to strongly suggest you guys play with clean save, either from the beginning or using the skip chapter function.

I have recently added another skip-chapter checkpoint, which is Chapter 3 in addition to the already existing one on Chapter 6. There is also now an autosave function at the beginning of every chapter starting on Chapter 2, so you'll be able to replay any chapter you're currently reading and try out different options in that chapter.

Anyway, enough of the technicalities.

Here's what you can expect in this update:

The set up to the ROs'  first hangout sessions

Ash's first hangout session

Go down the memory lane and see snippets of MC's most cherished memories.

Some more Viktor 😔

A mix of angst, wholesome, and even potential fluff 🤭

🔥🧡😉

Ash/Rin poly route is not yet ready for this hangout and it's still work-in-progress 🙏

New stuff added to previous chapters:

Added autosave/reload function for Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, and Chapter 5.

Added another skip-chapter point to Chapter 3, in addition to the already existing Chapter 6.

Also, little news that I'm going to make a post of tomorrow, I'm about to open both the Side Story and Spicy Side Story ideas and suggestions for this month on both Patreon and Ko-Fi, so if you're interested in supporting me while also getting some exclusive stuff, please do consider checking out my pages and subscribing 💖

I hope you guys enjoy the update! Oh, and also, feel free to send asks about the new update, but I'll probably hold off on answering them until a few days have passed to make sure a lot of readers already have the chance to check out the update and not accidentally spoil them 😊

[novella-november]

Someone told me a prompt for anyone who would like to practice writing during Novella November, but doesn't have the energy or idea to come up with an original story to write:

Find a Public Domain movie on this wiki page you like, and novelize it after you've watched it at least once :D

You can practice your writing by just novelizing the scenes as you go through the second time, its really good practice for dialogue and descriptions!

This is actually how I started my very first creative writing lol.

When I was like, twelve I think I really liked this one show and wanted to be able to "watch it in my head" while I was at school, so I had a little notebook and I just kept rewatching the first episode in the new season, novelizing it before I even knew that was a *thing*

So, if you want to practice your writing this November but don't want to deal with the pressure of coming up with your own completely original idea.... try *Novelization* November ! :D

The best part is, these movies are Public Domain, which means you can do anything you want with them! If you like the movie but you want to make some changes to the plot or characters, you can freely do whatever you want with it, because it belongs to no-one and everyone :)

Glenda herself was reading one of her cheap novels wrapped in a page of the Times. She read the way a cat eats: furtively, daring anyone to notice.
