It’s been 3 years since I last did anything on Wattpad. Four years since I last wrote something and uploaded it. The characters of yesteryear have long awaited their creator’s return, to see the next sunrise in their harrowing tale. After all, what living creature doesn’t want to see the next sunrise?
However, the tales I told four years ago are no longer in the forefront of my mind. The story of the comically hard to pronounce Tangurple and his friends is one I have since put to rest, knowing full well I’ll never finish it, for one reason or another. It’s a shame too because that was two years of consistent writing and output at a level I’ve never been able to replicate.
However, not all is lost. My writing skills have not dulled nor rusted. Rather, I’ve been doing some casual writing, a paragraph here, a sentence there. My life is finally secure with a proper job and confirmed position security, I am financially stable and I have the free time to be motivated and the joy back in my eye to write again.
It’s been a long three or four years, depending on when you’re counting my departure. I return with a new story, still fantasy focused, but I’ve committed fully to the fantasy element, leaving out the more convoluted aspects of VRMMORPGs and sci-fi isekai-ing. This new book is called “Heart of Oak”, part of a new series I’m calling “Of Hearts and Minds”
To keep it simple, a very powerful creature of ancient times returns with no memories and a few friends. He must recover his memories and stave off the warhawk neighbors.
I’m glad to be back
