Status Update:
I'm currently making revisions to Grim Inquiries and Pale Riders, while also preparing an entire series plan for Grim Journeys! I really appreciate your guys' patience, I'm really almost there - back to writing and posting new stories. Just a little while longer!
I'm posting concept art for Grim Inquiries to Tumblr! I was going to try and illustrate the novel, but it would've taken too much time. However, I really enjoyed making this art and I hope it stokes some imagination for my readers!
Hey, Soul Readers! I just started an account on Medium. If you'd like to read my first article, here it is! It's a quick dissertation on Homestuck as it is today, with some fan-theorizing and opinions and stuff.
Change Incoming: 'Ghost Reaper' is now 'Soul Reaper'!
I've been doing a lot of work, pretty much non-stop for the last few months after moving. I've got SEVERAL books in the works, which I'll be uploading as soon as they're finished. Then I'll rework the ones I've already written, if I don't rewrite them entirely. Everything I've done so far can be considered a "draft run", because this is going to be a more complete envisioning of what the story of the Soul Reaper was meant to be. I'll even be taking the little thumbnail art and replacing it with chapter numbers, but then I'm going to use that art as a rough draft for in-book illustrations! One every couple chapters, maybe. Anyway, please look forward to it! I'm expecting to have the first book ready to air this Autumn.
Heads up: To keep Ghost Reaper in chronological order, I'm going to take down the books previously completed, and re-upload them once it's time. If you'd like to read them as they are, check out my Wattpad!
I am currently hard at work writing four novels that will take place before Grim & The Vampire! As well as one that takes place right after. This will take some time, and I will likely begin posting content as soon as it's finished. I am taking extra time to do research and make the story as good as it can possibly be. Then, I'll move on to the next one, and the one after that, until we're caught up.
CURRENTLY WORKING ON:
- The Gold Point (Egypt, 1870's), April 2023
- The Grim Edge (Israel, 1880's), July 2023
- The Fabled Fountain (France, 1890's), September, 2023
- and more! To be completed by January 2024.
Thank you for your readership so far, and for your patience! Please look forward to the new stories.
Sup, readers! I have good news: I bought a new PC (from a really nice old man I met on a buy-n-sell) and I now have the equipment to:
- Post to Tapas and Wattpad from the same computer
- Illustrate large files without CLIP Studio crashing
- Manage word-processing/note-taking tasks much faster
- Use the computer standing up (I have my monitor on a bookshelf and the tower on a cabinet next to it) so I can put my easel on my desk again, and use the easel for writing
All of this means that I'll be able to post Ghost Reaper updates as soon as they're ready, with little to no hassle!
STORY STATUS:
I am 75% done the synopsis and will be writing the script as soon as that's complete. The script will take me about a month and a half once I start, or possibly less. It's a long story with almost a hundred characters, and a lot of ground to cover. It's been a labor of love, that's for sure! I just need to make sure all of my threads are in order before I start weaving, to make sure there are no loose ends.
Please look forward to Ghost Reaper O: Moon Wards!
Sup, readers! I'm starting the Ghost Reaper canon fresh with the VERY first story in its chronology, #O: Moon Wards. That's not a zero, that's the letter 'O'. Wild!
It's about American tourism in Hawaii, the 60's Hollywood scene, sci-fi, and more! I'm posting it to the novel you're already subscribed to, so it won't be hard to find. :P
After this, I'll post books -9 to -1, and then spend some time reworking the existing books (0-7). After each one is rewritten with a new draft, it'll get pulled through the loop, so to speak, and re-ordered in its proper place. Until then, the old stories will remain as they are for your reading enjoyment. I'll be sure to save them, and put them in a draft collab, in case some of y'all are still attached to them.
But worry not, Ghost Reaper will still have everything you love and more, but this time a little cleaner. Enjoy!
Hey readers! Slight change of plans. I'm going to work on GR Roots #-9, post it, and go forwards in the chronology from there, back to #-1. Then, every single book in Ghost Reaper will be receiving a new draft. The backstory being developed and the changes it brings have sort of outdated what's there already, with some concepts outright getting their own books and being replaced by another idea, and some characterizations being so far off they might as well be handed off to another.
Ghost Reaper has always been a "post the first thing you write" project for me, and that's helped me get content out, but it won't hold up going forward. So, please consider the coming changes to be a wave-based release of the true Ghost Reaper story!
Anyway, #-9 will be a reworking of a concept I once drew an entire graphic novel for in sharpie markers. It looks kinda bad, and I can't really post it again except as bonus content for diehard fans. So I'm going to adapt it into a script! Please look forward to it. I'll begin posting as soon as I have something completed.
