Everyone is their worst critic, and I think I am simultaneously the best and worst thing ever. Hopefully, I lean more towards best than worst.
I've been writing ever since I was a wee little pup, and have only recently begun to put some of my work out for people to read, what better to put forth than some ideas and concepts I've been toying around with?
Right now, I'm starting slow, learning the site and getting used to people actually seeing my work, hoping beyond hope that I get some actual criticism and not just, 'I like it, it's good.'
My ultimate goal, aside from improving my skills, is to deliver genuinely entertaining stories that everyone can enjoy.

Update: Hello, everyone. Apologies for the lack of updates + lack of update for over 2 months, I hit a really hard depressive episode that made it hard to do much. It's not gone away yet, but at this juncture I'm just forcing myself to at least get some episodes of LoT up for you to read, as well as getting more scheduled.

You'll be getting a chunk of episodes up over the course of the next few days, assuming I'm not able to power through it. (Mainly the ones that would cover the time spent not updating.)

To those who have been patiently waiting, thank you.

Hello, all! As of today, I've unlocked Ink Support! If you've wanted to support me in the past, but were unable to, that option is now available.

I want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you who has supported my web novel these past few years, and even as I reach the end of the novel (on my end at least, I've still got content to spare in the year(s) to come), I know that with my other projects sitting on my back burner, I will continue to have more stories to tell, and perhaps even more stories from Amanria for those who have fallen in love with the setting.

Sorry for the lack of update.
To keep things brief, I'm currently dealing with the reality that in half a year I have to figure out living arrangements due to a lack of income and essentially being forced to find a means to support myself.
Thank you for your support through reading LoT, if you're interested in helping me out, the best thing you could do is share the story with your friends, on your social media of choice, anything to boost it. Getting to 100 subscribers so I can start earning would help me in the long run.

Here's to 75 more.

MAGE is at the time of this posting officially axed. At the time I started writing it, I wanted to create a story that, in my mind, could fix the issues I found in one of my beloved childhood series, Harry Potter.
I wanted to do the base concept- a story about a wizarding school- justice by doing it better, by building a functional world that at least addressed some of the root issues (having themes of inclusivity and solidarity in a world that simply has neither for no particular reason, themes regarding racism and sexism while simultaneously subverting those same morals)and actively worked to show how even with legitimate concerns and fears, it could be done.
Between not really having a solid plan to begin with, directly referencing a work that I was learning was increasingly problematic, and relying on power structures I knew very little about as part of the narrative, along with a genre I wasn't experienced in that was rapidly changing into something more comfortable to me, and J.K. Rowling's own problematic views coming into the forefront, anything I could do with the story would simply be a disservice to the memories I had, and would be a disservice to the people reading.
I don't know if I'll ever reuse the concept, I feel like there could be a story in the lives of Matthew, Allison, Graeme, and Edgar, but as it stands, I can't in good conscience use a problematic story as a base without a deep understanding of my own personal views and how they relate to the morals of that story, because whether out of laziness or ignorance, or lack of tact therein, my story would only ever be either an inferior product riding on the coattails of a much more successful work, or a scathing diatribe of an unpleasant woman's flawed masterpiece.
Look back only to understand why you are here, let it teach you who you are now, and press onward, ever onward, toward a better and brighter world.

If you have any questions about MAGE, I would be willing to answer them, even if only to provide closure to anyone who was getting invested in the story, or wanted to know my thoughts at the time.

I took a moment to count all of the chapters I have for LOT, and with 188 episodes available, counting short chapters, I have three and a half years worth of content doing a weekly schedule.
Guess I didn't want to have any more unnecessary hiatuses.

I've decided after much consideration that I won't switch LOT's schedule from a weekly to bi-weekly schedule.
