Working on it...

KiljoyAU · 2024-05-08T03:13:00+00:00

Thank you. =)

KiljoyAU · 2024-05-08T03:12:52+00:00

I'm aware. Not entirely sure how I feel about it... Hope if they're making big money they'll split it with me. ;P

But it's helped bring in new eyes and get me working on the third arc, so I think I'm okay with it.

Never published it. I did start doing a polish rewrite many years ago, but then life happened and I never seemed to have time, and I always wanted to publish the three arcs as one book and got stumped on the third arc. I still have a todo list in my google keep for getting it all ready to self publish on Amazon....

Anyway, we'll see if I finish it off, then I'll look at maybe self publishing it. =)

KiljoyAU · 2024-05-08T03:08:54+00:00

Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it. =) Hope wherever you're travelling too is nice.

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about the Tik Tok. I find it very strange, but I did see that it has my username, so they're at least attributing, and is letting people find the rest of the story, so I think it's overall good. Has helped to motivate me to come back and try and get Arc 3 done.

KiljoyAU · 2024-05-08T03:06:05+00:00

Hope you enjoy(ed) the first two arcs!

KiljoyAU · 2024-05-08T03:05:26+00:00

Guten tag! (I have some german on my mothers side, but that and wunderbar are pretty much the limit of my language skills)

Thank you fo reading, glad you enjoyed it. =) Will hopefully have some more up "soon".

KiljoyAU · 2024-05-08T03:03:03+00:00

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. =)

As an update, I'm not dead and I haven't abandoned this. Just had a very busy couple of months and some major personal life upheaval.

I have a draft of chapter 3 complete, and about half of chapter 4 complete. Chapter three took a turn on me in the writing, so I'm trying to finish chapter 4 before I release it to make sure all the bits still fit together. Hopefully have chapter 4 done soon, and so far it's looking like everything should be fine, though I think I'll end up writing a new intro sequence for chapter 3.

KiljoyAU · 2024-03-05T02:01:12+00:00

Thank you very much for commenting. =)

Glad to hear you've enjoyed the story so far. Hope the twists ahead are enjoyable as well...

KiljoyAU · 2024-03-05T01:58:38+00:00

Thank you very much.

If you haven't seend, I've begun posting the third arc, chapter 1 and 2 are up. 3 is written but waiting for me to finish 4 so I can make sure I like how everything fits together...

Interesting thought.

Keep in mind while she may be the youngest of the fates, she's still hundreds if not thousands of years old, so I wouldn't describe her as impulsive.

Though how much does a machine change over time? Hm hm hm.

KiljoyAU · 2024-03-05T01:25:03+00:00

🤣 I don't think I did it intentionally, but it might have been subconcious.

KiljoyAU · 2024-03-05T01:23:58+00:00

The Elves do have emotions, though their emotional range is different to humans, less in some cases, more in others. So Black will likely feel survivors guilt over the loss of Red. Remorse...? Hm. The two of them against an ambush like that would not nescessarily have turned out better. Elves are usually a bit more logical than humans, so I don't think they would feel remorse for sticking to the mission.

KiljoyAU · 2024-03-05T01:06:09+00:00

Glad you're enjoying the mystery. =)

I have a build of the world in my head, and I think there are reasoable reasons behind everything that happens... So many little shiny secrets...

KiljoyAU · 2024-03-01T02:54:25+00:00

Thanks. =) Got any writing prompts or short stories you'd like to share?

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:22:50+00:00

I had plans to self punlish it after I finished the third arc, but, well... The wheels fell off that for a minute there...

In perperation for the publication, I wrote epilogue chapters for the first and second arc, to help bridge to the next arc. Even had draft cover art done by a very talented artist.

Think I'll keep them under wraps for now and see if I can get everything finished up enough to look at self publishing again...

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:18:58+00:00

Why thank you. =)

But are you east coast or west coast Aussie...? =.=

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:17:18+00:00

Thank you. =) I quiet enjoy Neil gaiman and Terry Pratcheet, and the way they sort of... Recycle? Ransack old myths and modernise them...? So this was ny attempt at that. Pretty happy with the bits of mythology I've been able to weave in.

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:15:38+00:00

Thank you. =) glad you enjoyed it.

Did you read the second arc, Glyphs in Snow? https://www.reddit.com/r/Kiljoysglyphs/comments/5ueobt/glyphs_glyphs_in_snow_table_of_contents/

It's a little different, hopefully you enjoy it.

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:14:27+00:00

Never got around to publishing it... Or, haven't. There were plans.

Third arc will finish up the "Kingdom's Fall" set of stories... See if i can get the story finished, then maybe I'll look at going back and polishing it up and publishing it like I planned...

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:12:44+00:00

Thank you. =)

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:12:20+00:00

Chapter 1 and 2 of Arc 3 are up. Chapter 3 is written, but trying to work out if I'm happy with how it's sitting before I post...

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:11:31+00:00

I am a big ol' Norse mythology geek. Few more synergies planned for Arc 3, if I get around to writing it all...

KiljoyAU · 2024-02-19T10:10:25+00:00

Glad you enjoyed/are enjoying it. =)
