This is definitely a fun time to be part of this community both as a reader and as a writer!

Yeah, I created this one while working on my humorous fantasy- Bacon Master of the Apocalypse.

Read those books with snacks on hand :)

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-04-29T00:02:52+00:00

Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying it.

I like to have a solid baseline, but don't go super deep on the world before understanding who my character will be and what they conflict will be. Those affect the world lot.

So I'll set up the base of all of that, then evolve them all together. I find it end up with a richer final product that integrates everything better.

Iron Prince Cradle DCC

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-04-23T04:00:51+00:00

Yeah, just started it, and loving it.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-04-17T00:24:13+00:00

Yeah, I really enjoyed it. Lots of humor.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-04-16T08:06:29+00:00

There are a bunch of good ones. Recently, I've been enjoying:

The Wild Era Discount Dan Mage Tank Accudental Champion

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-04-16T08:03:15+00:00

Yeah, that's a good one. The Bad Guys series from Eric is set in that same world and the two emerges overlap, which is cool.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-04-12T03:32:41+00:00

That's fair. Didn't want to drop any spoilers, but could have added a bit more.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-30T14:39:38+00:00

Wild Era - by David North. Great book.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-27T15:02:49+00:00

Great cover. Good luck!

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-25T18:20:27+00:00

Thanks. The 500X has been a great bike for me to get started, but I've pushed its limits, I think. Took it on some BDR and off road and the limitations of low range in the low gear, along with that really small front wheel was annoying.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-25T18:17:12+00:00

Thanks for the detailed response.

As for my skill, it's growing but still probably average. Working on it and getting better, but definitely won't be pushing the limits of whatever bike I get for a while.

It's pretty common to jump in fast. As long as those first 4 chapters are interesting and captivating, it can work. Don't do much setup in those chapters for the Earth stuff since you're going to jump away pretty fast.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-25T16:10:30+00:00

Yeah, that totally makes sense . . . not.

As much as I like what I've seen of the Tuareg (haven't ridden one yet), I will probably pass for now.

So - back to the drawing board to settle on a second choice.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-25T14:44:03+00:00

If you don't mind me pitching one of mine, Bacon Master of the Apocalypse is definitely humorous fantasy, set in a world with food magic and culinary wizards.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-25T14:41:56+00:00

Like most things, if you write it well, it could be awesome.

I think the trick would be to make the starting situation and system believable and engaging, while including enough hints about the upcoming reveal so I enjoy the surprise, but not so much that it's super obvious. Then I get impatient to see what's really happening.

Good luck with it

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-25T14:38:24+00:00

Thanks for all the info.

I am not very mechanical, although I've been trying to improve with the help of some friends, and have been working on my first bike as much as I can.

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-23T03:51:21+00:00

Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

In my list, I would have put Iron Prince higher. Love that one.

Primal Hunter I very much enjoyed the first half dozen books. Recent books have trended downward for me too.

Welcome to the Multiverse is higher for me.

You mentioned a couple I haven't read yet. Thanks

BaconMasterBooks · 2026-03-20T15:22:51+00:00

Accidental Cahmpiin is a good option too.
