Update
Hello all! As stated in the last announcement, I have entered a story in a contest on Reddit. The contest moderators have said I have to wait until after the contest ends to post the entry, or any subsequent parts, on here. However, here is the link for those who just can't wait, https://www.reddit.com/comments/ah6au3. In the meantime, I will continue to post other short works. Thank you all for your continued support!

Upcoming Work
Happy official New Years! As some of you have seen, I have posted 2 new stories since the short hiatus ended. I am a little slower to write than I have been (between happenings in my personal life and lack of prompts that catch my interest.) However, I will be continuing to write as long as I can and as long as you all enjoy reading. I have just found a writing contest on Reddit that I am going to participate in, but it requires the work to be previously unpublished, so it will come onto this blog either after the submission period or the whole contest (whatever the mods allow.) The contest is also such that submissions should be the first chapter of a theoretical book, so depending on feedback this may end up as another serial. On the topic of feedback, I am still looking into the best way to get yours, so bear with me and feel free to contact me my other means if you already have one (for those who know my Facebook, phone number, email, etc.) Other than that, stay tuned, and thanks for your continued support.

New Years
Hello all, I hope everyone is having a fantastic New Years! As you can see "The Bound Eye" is finally finished! A huge thanks to everyone who has been keeping up with that story and supporting the blog. With that said, the serial and deadline took a lot out of me, so I will be going on a short hiatus to recharge and take care of some personal stuff. I don't know exactly when I'll be posting new stories again, but I don't expect it to be much later than the 2nd week of January. In the meantime, please hit that subscribe button, as it's the best way for you all to see when I do start posting again. I've tested it with my own email and promise that you don't get any spam and no one else has access to your info. Again, thank you all for sticking with me through this and I will see you all in the new year.

An update on "The Bound Eye"
I hope all of my readers have had very Merry Christmases or Happy Holidays for whatever you celebrate. I have just posted part 3 of the serialized story and hope you are all enjoying it. I know this work has been a bit of a slow burn and hope that part 3 starts to pay off some of that building tension (at least a little bit). I appreciate your patience through this process, as it is my first time doing such a long piece. I find myself adding a lot more detail than I originally expected and thus I cut off parts earlier than I thought I would for dramatic effect. That being said, I have the rest of the plot a little more planned out, and so I can say with relative certainty that there will be two more parts posted (for a total of 5). I promise that it will be done before the new year, and thank you all again for your support and patience. I am working on a way that you all can leave feedback for me as well without having your own blogger account, so stay tuned for more updates on that. Keep up being awesome!

New features are here!
I've been playing with the blog setup for a little while and have made some edits to the layout and available options. First, announcements like this one will now be made here on this separate page accessible through the page tabs on the top of the home screen. This is to keep the home page posts streamlined to just stories. Second, email subscription is now available. Click the subscribe link at the top of the home page, put in your email, follow the on-screen prompts, and confirm your email with the link sent to you (be sure to check spam or promotion folders for the link). Once subscribed you will receive an email once a day whenever I make a new post, and if I don't post anything you don't get an email that day. No spam or cluttered inboxes (as far as I understand and have tested it). Finally, the side panel now includes a translate option for those readers who prefer a different language or are perhaps trying to learn one. The translation is powered by Google translate, so I can't fully guarantee it's accuracy, but it's the same feature as translating a Google search page. That's all for now, I hope the new updates are helpful. And I do plan to upload part 2 of "The Bound Eye" in the near future, so stay tuned.

Greetings pack members!
I apologize for the lack of writing over the past few days and hope you can all bare with me. In the coming week I have a lot happening in my personal life and will likely continue being a little slow to post. To make up for this, I am trying something several of you have asked for; a longer piece that will be serialized in several posts! The first part is currently up, so please let me know what you think about it in the comments. I don't know exactly how many parts there will be just yet, or how often they will be posted, but the goal is to have the full story finished by the end of the year. Thank you all for you patience. Hope you enjoy "The Bound Eye- Part 1!"
