Also spent a long damn time finding all the old covers, just because I thought it would be kinda fun.
Let’s start here, I kind of included this so you could see how many different covers this book had. It has only been published with the three first, the large one, the smoke one, and the distorted face. You can still get this from my Amazon page.
This was supposed to be the next in the series of stories for the antoholy to be published, but as you can read in this entry, that is just not gonna happen the way I had envisioned. And this story is officially on hiatus until I figure out what to do.
To stay on theme, this is probably the next in the line of the originally planned stories that will be published, this underwent many changes as you can see on the covers. But finally I settled on a less complicated thing, but it works! Of course it also works not being limited to the original premise of these stories, that would be a huge lie to say it’s not a relief in some backwards way. Because I was honestly bummed out by it back then when I had to just throw in the towel because nothing worked like I wanted it to, and I was sure those stories could be much better if only I could change this little thing….
knowing me, this little thing, turned into a complete re-write…
This is the last surviving, only half written story that was supposed to go into the collection. I still have high hopes for it.
And then there’s this… it’s already a huge project, and what I am writing these days. It’s technically a sequel to ‘heart shaped tattoos’ and is about Early’s younger brother. I know there’s inconsistencies in there, but I can’t solve it, unless I want to pull the published work and redo it. I am more inclined to make some sort of bridge work, or just deal with it in my authors intro.
As you can see the cover i ended up using for Outpost Lazarus, was originally made for this, but I decided it fitted better with the Lazarus story, and also I did have another ‘core’ idea for this story. As in much more paranormal stuff, but for some reason it want to be like the first, where the paranormal is sorta in the frame, but not what it’s really about.
The reason for the two identical front pages, is because I haven’t decided on the title yet, but I think I’ll go with ‘Moon Jay’, which is the main characters name.
And so here’s the collection, this will of course not be made until I am done. And I am also not quite sure it will be like this if it makes sense. Because the collection is originally both the three works from me, and three works from Anne. But the last two versions the front page went through only have my name on it, and I also made a collection on Amazon named this. I’m just not sure about it.
I mean ‘maybe we were the monsters’ ought to include Anne’s works.
Otherwise I did think of collecting my stories in something like this, because they all ‘happen’ the same place, but not at the same time at all.
And that is what I originally made that front page for, but I just don’t know man… Time will just have to show. The other cover there, is made for the stories which I wrote ages ago, like the precursor for the whole ‘cold hollow, murky mile, blackthorn’ universe.
I would not add them to the collection at all, but I was showing it to sorta showcase the idea to name the collection after the stories in there, or the places they are set. But it gave me sort of a second wind to decide on setting all the stories in the same ‘universe’ if you will. And that is perhaps why the ‘sons of caina/bedlam lullabies’ doesn’t work, because that is clearly not set in the same universe at all. Which was the original premise (among other things), but the original stories I went to great lengths to set in different fictive areas, and times.
But I really don’t want to stress Anne to deal with some 10 year old stories. Perhaps it’s better to write something new? I don’t know, and something tells me she just can’t find the time.
This story is a old mashup of a fanfic I never finished, and an original story I also never finished. Actually that original story was supposed to be one of the stories for ‘maybe we were monsters’ but it just flopped around like a fish on water. I redid it and mashed these concepts together, and did tons of worldbuilding for it. I don’t know if I feel like publishing it ever, I think it’s much too complicated, and I’m kinda afraid that I didn’t worldbuild well enough, and the plot is dumb. But personally I enjoy writing it, so it’s filed under ‘passion projects’ and what the fuck do I know.
I made a blog for it here, but nothing much is there yet.
And the reason for the empty frontpage, is because I simply don’t know if I’m gonna change title for it.
These are the stories I had on Wattpad, they will be moved to sites here, so you can read them directly on this blog. Two of them will also be on my authors blog. I will get back to you on that one, because downloading my shit just got complicated.
The site is down too, this means the only way I have of actually downloading my own shit as a pdf, is to pay. And fuck that. So I have to find the motivation to copy paste it, goddammit.
And this, my little baby… I opened a blog for it, much like Nocturnes, but I did delete most I had up there, because I did… And I will be reintroducing the original gen-AI artwork I had in my own file, just because I decided not to cater to fuckwits, and I want it this way. This is my vision, and so this is how it’ll be.
I had originally not thought to release this as a written project but had started making it into TTS files, much like Cacophonies. But it’s a huge undertaking to make semi decent TTS, and dude, I can’t be bothered since I can just listen to it myself from my phone.
This is however also why it’s not uploaded to any archives.
This is a fandom project that I planned on revamping, because the universe I made which is a crossover between mass effect and dead space, is actually pretty fucking cool, and with a little edit– Mama can do an EL James, which wouldn’t be the first time. But It’s not a project that I spend time on right now, mostly it’s just on my bucket list.
And much like Cacophonies, it’s a story that performed terrible as a fanfic, and I think I just can’t do fanfics anymore.
Now this is a half written story, it was meant to be another Mass Effect Big Bang story, but I am just not sure I can be bothered anymore. Clearly I can’t write fanfiction anymore, and because it’s not finished, it won’t be that hard to swap some names and expand. But that is like the lowest rank on my to do list.
I don’t know if it’ll keep the title, and the cover was made for this post, I mean..
I am not re-releasing Kryos but I found the artwork made by HeavenonFire, and commissioned to me by Anne as a gift. This was supposed to have been the frontpage, but we got clip art guy with birds. So I figured, least I could do was to give it back the front it was supposed to have.
