Alright. I'm just going to start by saying I'm probably not as pretentious as my posts will make me out to be. I'm a college student working on a book series, I can get verbose and ramble-tastic sometimes.
For one I'm a fairly massive nerd, Internet culture is my culture, even if I don't venture into the darker parts of the Interwebs very often. I play a lot of games, dabble in coding my own games, write, draw, etc.
This Blog is for me being random, and writing about whatever I'm doing, usually progress on my books, on the game, on my college education or whatever I find interesting at the moment. I mainly made this profile so I could reach out to people. A certain kind of blogger known as Slenderbloggers. The people entrenched in the war against the spindly devil himself. I have not been savaged by him, I have never seen him, I've watched most of the main videos on youtube and done some reading on here. I know full well the danger of jumping in but at this point I know too much with or without this blog. I don't know what I'll be able to bring to the table, I'm rational and good under pressure, as well as being almost completely neutral in everything I do. For now, I'll just keep uploading random accomplishments from my life, until things start going to hell like most every other blog relating to... construct? It? SlendyMcGoAway? I suppose he'd have to be after me for that last one to work.
Regardless, that book series I'm working on is probably going to be the main focus of this blog. Here's what I've got for the moment.
Rebirth: Angel of Origin - The first book of mine, it was written back when I was about 12-13 and hasn't been touched since. It's about 140 pages typed and needs some serious work to fit into the rest of the series. It is the first part of the Trilogy but as it is now... about 80% of it isn't actually considered canon. Mainly due to the fact I was 12, didn't plan ahead, and just kind of meandered for 15 chapters before hastily finishing the thing. I am working on a planned revision right now though. Revision here meaning completely rewriting the thing from scratch.
Life and Death: Angel of The Fallen - The second book I've written, 3rd story I ever finished writing. The first version I wrote right after finishing the first. I then hit the point where I woke up and started taking writing seriously. Planned everything out and then rewrote the whole thing. As it is now it's about 340 pages, I finished it around January-February this year. However this also needs another revision because I changed my mind on a trait most of the main characters share so... the first 13 or so chapters need to be completely reworked to include this. I've gotten the first 3 chapters revised as of now, working on the fourth, about half way done. I have a list of things I need to do to every chapter. It's set 2 years after the events of the first book, the characters develop lightly through the gap but not as much as they will in...
Destruction: Angel of Fragments - The final volume of the trilogy. This has not actually been written out yet, but I have outlined it completely. I couldn't decide how I was going to end the thing so I plotted out 2 endings, a "Good" and a "Bad" ending. I'll decide which one to go with after I've written them both out. It's set 15 years after Life and Death and naturally concludes the adventures of my assorted crew of characters. One way or the other... Due to the huge gap there are a few large character shifts that take place due to a few of them having grown up, a few having children, and generally settling down.
Journals of The Ancient One - A companion work to the first and second book. A set of journals written from the perspective of the mentor character who will go unnamed as of now. It's really my only chance to give this character a past, and explain why he is the way he is. He largely acts in the now, and only for the betterment of others. Not really dwelling on his sorted past. I've written about 70 pages of this work so far, and I'm going to use it as a sort of Alternate outline for Rebirth. I've grown kind of tired with the outlining format I've been using, so this is an opportunity for me to work from a different angle.
Those are the big ones, I was planning on doing a prequel that does much the same as the Journals do, and explain the mentor's past, but I doubt it would be necessary anymore. I'll write more about plot and characters later, I don't want to go on too long about these things on my first post.
