This novel is over a year old, I still have a lot to write. But I've been informed by my readers that I should update the synopsis. This is a FIRST draft, it is RAW, and it is UNEDITED. For the first 50 or so chapters, I as the Author wasn't entirely sure what direction I wanted to take the novel. So it is really convoluted at the start. Why haven't I changed it? FIRST draft.

Polyamory: the practice of engaging in multiple romantic (and typically sexual) relationships, with the consent of all the people involved.

You will see a lot of this in this novel. The MC and a majority of their lovers are not human. They do not have the same taboos and hang-ups.

This is my FIRST attempt at a story. There will be mistakes. The first 50 or so chapters are very messed up. Just work your way through them, it gets better. <<less

What defines endgame content? Is it raiding epic dungeons to take down the strongest bosses there are, or is it facing off against other players to climb the ladder and become the top PvPer? Is endgame content gathering materials and crafting the strongest and most exotic equipment that there is, or is it all about playing the market and amassing more wealth than everybody else? Some people even argue that fashion and minigames are endgame content!... more>>

Ryouta has already done all of that. Having spent most of his life playing MMO after MMO, he now finds himself wanting to live a virtual life that is far more relaxed and casual than what he is known for.

To Ryouta, the true endgame is fishing.

The game of the century, [Satisfy], something thought impossible to achieve in the past era, has now blessed the enthusiastic public desiring to escape reality or explore a new world, and so a new Era was born.... more>>

A World of Magic and Monsters, a World where people have to compete for every single gain they would want to achieve in this new journey.

Guilds and individuals alike, regardless of inclinations have this in mind, to be free and explore the world at their own pace. And, while some are hurrying to stare at the rest from the Pinnacle, others simply have their own unique game styles that rarely would make sense with the rest.

Mathias was such a person who invested everything in his own unique gameplay, and even though many had questioned his choices as a waste of time, he still plans his ascent toward the Pinnacle, finding support in an old fragment of the past that granted him with everything one would wish.

Power, Prestige, Looks, Intelligence, one could say he had too much, but only his followers would know how much he invested for everything he had to this day.

There was a saying in that family, a Saharan needs the power to rule over the Empire.

Modern Age Online is the hottest new Full-immersion Superhero Virtual Reality MMO. Millions have dived into their Immersion pods to experience the life of a Superhero or Villain in a simulated recreation of Austin Texas. Join hands with other players to do battle with Mutants, Aliens, Wizards and other various denizens of the first Superhero VRMMO.... more>>

Follow the Mutant Werewolf, Shaggy, as he and his friends try to become some of the biggest Villains in the underground city of Under-Town. Using nothing but their limited wits, semi-decent gaming skills and a dream, they will try to create their own crew in the already gang-infested streets. Join Shaggy, Vlad, Ren, Slink and others as they gather a few Lackeys and go head to head with mobsters, failed science experiments, and other players in this story about how the other half lives in a game of Superheroes, Aliens, and Mutants.

A Werewolf In Under-Town is a project I started when I was stuck on the fourth book in my main line LitRPG series, Modern Age Online. It started as a sort of pallet cleanser and grew from there. Where Modern Age Online follows The Professor and his Superhero friends, A Werewolf In Under-Town takes a few bit villains from that series and follows their trials and tribulations in the underground city of Under-Town.

I don't personally think you need to read the original work, (although I won't complain if you do. It's on Amazon's Kindle Unlimited, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CMDVXM2) but I'm sure someone will disagree with that statement. But I would sure appreciate if ya gave it a try.

VOW, Veil Of Worlds. Merely another game in the industry, just that it's the most advanced technologically, one that gives you much more freedom than any other. That's the mindset a seemingly ordinary student takes when logging in for the first time, and that's the mindset he... or maybe she very quickly realizes to be too simple, too lacking. Because the feelings and changes she herself experiences and sees in others might just make a part of another, much greater truth.... more>>

A story placed in a world of VOW, a new game made with full dive technology, and the world hundreds of years after Earth became but a reminder for future generations and humanity found their new homes among the stars. And where far more than desolate systems lie, even more so behind the veil that is the fabric of reality.

Story mostly from one POV, first person perspective.

The cover art is a cut from original work that doesn't belong to me. If you have an issue with it, contact me and I will take it down. It is though what was originally the base of Helia's appearance, so I'll keep it here until I get a proper artwork done. It will also be in the glossary (careful of spoilers there). <<less

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if gaming returned to a simpler time? A time when you didn’t get nickel and dimed the instant you booted up the game?... more>>

Jim found a nice solution to this little problem. He's the ace researcher at a state of the art technology company that is very close to unlocking realistic virtual reality. Not only sight and sound, but feel, taste and touch! It will be just like the real thing!

But being the epic nerd that he was, Jim had recently figured out the key to unlocking full simulation VR. Not only that, but he figured out how to install software inside his own head. Too bad he got fired because he locked himself in his office for the past two weeks without talking to anyone while on his discovery spree. Whatever, it's vacation time!

What should he do first? Make his noggin into the ultimate computer? Develop the next generation of VR games? Make the next VR-MMORPG to end all VR-MMORPGs?

Nah. Jim decided to revamp an old classic 16 bit RPG and see what his state of the art equipment will transform it into. Jim is going on an epic journey through his own special 3D new game plus version of his favorite old 2D game. It was time to kick some formerly pixel butt and install his new but old game right inside his head!

After all, what could go wrong with installing a video game straight into your noggin? <<less

Nikola is an NPC in The World of Wills, a video game where players can feel sensations as if they were truly there. She leads a life of bloodshed and murder - that is, until one day she wakes up sapient. Just as she begins thinking real, non-scripted thoughts and making connections, she and the players in the game are told that if they die in the game, they die in real life - and it's time to get killing.... more>>

But what of Nikola, the emerging AI consciousness? How does she win in a game that can only end in her being wiped from existence at the end of it all?

Updates once or twice a day until the story hits the same chapter on all platforms.

----------------------------------------------

Cutting to Life is a slow-burn LitRPG with a villainous (later anti-hero, or maybe still villainous, haha) female lead.

It's told from the perspective of Nikola, an NPC within the World of Wills who's become sapient and is now mysteriously able to play the game as a PC. It's quite light for a LitRPG, but the system and stats become more of a focus later when Nikola herself can access them.

The story gradually builds into a Battle Royale where the players' lives are on the line (if you die in the game, you die in real life), and only one party of savvy adventurers can win. They'll have to spend their time and stats wisely as dungeons promising rare gear float down from the sky - but is a legendary sword worth killing someone for, knowing they'll stay dead forever?

- This story is told in third person, past tense.
- This is a slow-burn LitRPG that spends a lot of time establishing its setting and characters, because I believe this will make for a better payoff in the end. As such, the Battle Royale doesn't start until chapter 30 or so.
- Chapters are anywhere between 800 words and 3000 words long.
- Book cover by Vixeona.

Cutting to Life is also being posted on RR, SPB and Tapas.
Thank you sincerely for reading. <<less

Shesmu wouldn't.

He always forged ahead, damn the odds. He was proud of what he'd accomplished—captain of the most legendary team in Ashes of Gods. But, most importantly, he'd found a loving wife and daughter—until he hadn't.

One morning, Shesmu woke up ten years in the past. His friends and achievements were gone. His beloved Sophie never knew him. Worst of all, leaving him drowning in an ocean of despair, his daughter Eva was no more.

With the memory of her laugh haunting his sleep, Shesmu received a letter, sender unknown—an invitation to meet in Ashes of Gods.
