Hi all!
Not much to say this update, but I like this chapter. It is the first proper pubstomp you get to see in the story. Hope you like it!
I've been ill for the last couple of days, and so I've been a little drained so I haven't had a chance to write much, but I will be sorting that out soon. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be ready to start publishing Lazarus as soon as I am back on form, so there's that. I will give you guys an update when I know more. Also the site broke 4000 views on Friday! Thank you EVERYONE who is reading my work. It's really awesome to know I have a reader base.
Have fun!

Madness? A DOUBLE UPDATE?
Hi all!
As you can probably guess, today is a double update. One part is a relatively short chapter and the other is a side story. It's a bit of lore that tells you about a part of Babel we have yet to see. I like it, and think that it's a solid piece, but IMO I like the release chapter more. I hope you do!
What have I been up to this week? Well apart from working and job hunting I watched the first episode of The Expanse, which is a new show from SyFy. It has a budget and is actually pretty fucking good. I will be enjoying it. As for everything else, I caught up with Gravity Falls (It's pretty much my favourite cartoon ever). There's only one more episode until the end D: This makes me a sad writer. Either way though, the last two episodes were EXCELLENT, and Bill Cypher is my favourite villain in just about any series. I cannot wait for the 1 hour special episode to finish it, it's going to be EPIC.
In other news, Coiling Dragon finished this week. Most of you know about it, but if you don't it is the series that got most people in the community into Xianxia and the like (Mine was Duolou Dalu), and we are so thankful for Ren and all his hard work. He pretty much blew the translation scene out of the water with the one chapter a day publishing schedule and I wish him the best of luck in translating Desolate Era and anything else he wants at a much slower pace.
Chapter 16 - A Storm Approaches
Side Story 2 - The Legend of Bloody Gus

The Big Red Book
Hi all!
New chapter is out, it's a longer one, but of the next three chapters, two are around 2k words, while one is only about 700. I hope you like it. It tells you more about the nature of the Books, and gives you a few hints to the future as well as giving you some build up to the point where Laurence eventually gets to Heaven rank.
Now on to more important things. First, holy fuck does blogger hate copying things from google documents. I had more trouble sorting out this chapter than I have any others, and I am dreading the moment where I have to make them all uniform D: Anyway, shorter update this week as I have some chores to do! (Plus I have a nasty cold so I want to get back to bed).
Chapter 15 - The Book of Creation

Walls, Pills and Writing.
Hi all!
New chapter is out! It's a short one, but over the next three chapters at least you are going to have two longer than normal ones, and one short one. I like this series of chapters because it explores a bit more into the lore of the clan of creation, and it tells you a little more about the Book. Fun fact, the next part was originally meant to be one chapter, but it's become four. There was a lot more for me to go into than I thought there was so it bulked more than I expected.
What have I been up to this week? Mainly the job thing on Monday (which I should find out about some time today), looking at houses and reading ISSTH. I Shall Seal The Heavens is incredible at the moment, and the most recent chapter (Chapter 291) blew me away. Er Gen is an incredible writer, with a flair for the best dramatic reveals that keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time. Many thanks to based Deathblade for allowing me to experience it!
Oh yeah! Quick mention to the fact that if you want to ask me about anything to do with Babel, then just contact me via Twitter @BabelThePath
Chapter 14 - Damascus
Have fun!

Speak All Evil, Hear All Evil, Cie'Awll Evil
Hi all!
Little bit later today than the last couple. I've been procrastinating like a bitch while job-hunting rather than writing, so I could have done a lot more if I had put my mind to it. New chapter is called Cie'Awll, and it gives you a small insight into the nature of the people in the worlds of Babel. This one is more medieval than anything else. You see some side characters, some who will stick around, some who might not. You can never tell! This is also the first chapter that you will encounter the 'old tongue' of my series. Don't worry, it's not going to be used often, but anything old enough will have an alternate name in this as yet unnamed language. Also, the chapter is pronounced See-All jsyk.
Saw Spectre last night with some friends, and I have to say, the new James Bond film was... The most Bond-like of them all since they rebooted the series with Casino Royale. It had everything you would want in a Bond film; action, explosions, bizarre twists of plot, things that don't make sense in retrospect, stupid reasons to escape from the bad guy that is supposed to be a Chekov's Gun, pretty women who Bond sleeps with, and even a little bit of chauvinism! So yeah, if you want to just chill out to an action movie with a bit more style than Expendable, but not as good as Die Hard, then watch Spectre.
Anyway here's the new chapter!
Chapter 13: Cie'Awll
Enjoy!

The Flag With Three Streamers
Hi all!
New chapter is out, pretty early today. I wanted to get it out so I have more time to write my quota and to write my side project, Lazarus. I'm going to mix it up a bit, because I'm missing some good solid Sci-Fi in my web novel mix. It's going to be first person, longer chapters and probably only released once a month, but I'm enjoying writing it too.
Today's chapter title (and post title) has a small reference to ISSTH. If you get it, great! If you don't, seriously read ISSTH. It's incredible. We will be seeing the capabilities of a Saint in this chapter, at least a little, so people should be able to get a hold of the power scale of this series. POWER CREEP WILL BE RAMPANT BUT LINEAR. Speaking of the series in general, I am so happy I am subbed to the user Lindybeige on YouTube. He makes my job of making the crafting accurate much easier, because yeah, the crafting for everything so far has been as accurate as I could make it, minus the glyphs and soon the enchantments.
Anyway here's the chapter, enjoy!

A Shorter Chapter For A Shorter Gap!
Hi all!
So I am pretty happy this week. Last Friday the site reached over 2000 views, which IMO is incredible. I've also worked out that the first book is likely going to be around 50 chapters long. It might be a bit shorter, or a bit longer, but that is the estimate. Anyway, not much happens in this chapter, but it does introduce another B list character, and preface the next challenge. The four or so chapters after chapter 12 are going to have a lot of world-building in them, so I am having fun with that and I should be ready for them. I will also hopefully be releasing the first part of another side story after chapter 20, which is going to occasionally run alongside the main story and be about the nickname of a character who has not been formally introduced at yet. I hope you guys like it, because it's going to be... bloody to say the least.
What have I been doing this last week? Well apart from reading my list, writing and working, I have also been watching Bob's Burgers. I love H. Jon Benjamin, he is an excellent voice actor. Anyway, here's the new chapter!
Chapter 11 - Preamble

Yunning About, the big 10!
Hi all!
New chapter is here and it's the first double digit one! And it names Laurence's first companion. I like Yun, he's a simple character who is going to be a badass for the entire series! I really need to write more. My Xianxia reading list and job hunting/work is taking so much of my time up that I am finding it difficult to keep up to my plan of getting 5 chapters ahead. I seem to constantly be stuck on 3 chapters D:
Now, I know people don't like parting with their money so I have been putting this off for over a month now, but I would like to offer people the chance to donate if they feel like it. I'm not saying GO DONATE OR ELSE but if you feel like supporting me in this, and making my life easier I will be setting up a link to my Patreon page HERE and on the site in general, where you can donate to me if you feel like it. I would set up a Paypal donate button too, but Paypal hates my bank account and I have had god knows how much trouble with them since I was about fifteen years old.
Chapter 10: Yun And The Codex

Saints Fighting and Job Hunting
Hi all!
Early chapter today, as I am pretty busy looking for a new job in my area. I still have my old one and all that, I just need a new one to cut down on travel a LOT. I like this chapter, it's a lot more visceral than the most recent others, so people should enjoy it. It also ends that two chapter cliff-hanger and proves once again that my twists are visible from a country mile. OR ARE THEY?
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the chapter!
