Hey, how's it going!
My editorial work on Verse 3's Amazon release nears completion.
I wrapped up rewrites last week and am currently 50% through one last machine-assisted proofreading round, after which the full book is ready to be submitted. It is scheduled to go to sale between the second and third week of Augu...

Hi!
How's it going?
My work on the Amazon remaster of Old Empire has continued through June and while there's still a lot left to do, the finishing line is already in sight. I'm currently about 55% through the editing process, so I'm confident we'll have a new release still in July.

Hello folks!
It's gradually starting to look like summer's here!
But come rain or shine, our work must go on.
Next up on my list of tricks is, as previously teased, Amazon revamp of A Hero Past the 25th: Old Empire, the epic third part of the web novel saga, which I believe has brou...

Hello!
How's it going?
Some comics again this month. The troubled story of our heroine who gained martial arts knowledge from past life memories continues.
I haven't toned all the pages yet, so I'll be uploading this in patches of 4-5 pages as I get them done. There are 15 pages in total. So check back again...

Hello!
Some of you have already noticed, but I recently took it upon myself to merge the fiction pages of A Hero Past the 25th on Royal Road all into one.
Due to various circumstances, parts 1-3 were originally posted on their own separate pages, which became a source of a lot of unnecessary confusion ove...

Hi everyone! How's it going?
Days are getting longer, light's getting brighter. But here it's business as usual.
Earlier this year, as you may have noticed, I started an original fantasy comic project, to try out a bit different way of telling a story.
Of course, I also hoped that presenting...

Earlier in autumn, I mentioned how I participated in a writing contest hosted by a certain science fiction magazine.
An act of desperation.

Hello everyone!
Constantly bursting with story ideas, I generally tend to work on multiple projects at the same time. It's not about having ADHD (I don't), but has practical benefits too, such as being able to release works consistently with a relatively small gap in between, instead of years of silent grind with nothin...

Hello!
Last year, I posted a couple of casual fan comics on my website, based on the video games I played.
Today, I finally got around to finishing the second chapter to the comic about Final Fantasy XIV. Phew!
You can read both parts for free on my website, if you haven't yet:
Kept you waiting, huh?
The physical edition of Verse 1 is now officially available on Amazon.
Actually, it's been out for quite some time, but I had to wait to get my own copy and see if it looks okay. That ended up taking a while. Thanks to the global pandemic and all the other stuff going on out there...
