Funday Monday!

Hey all!

Monday update is out, and it's the last chapter of The Festival Of The Dead. It is one that closes a few loose ends, and allows us to work towards the finale of the series. It shows what happens to Damien, and shows us the path Laurence intends to walk for the rest of the series. The rest of the chapter is the nature of the final strike of Laurence's maelstrom hammer. The fallout was pretty big.

What have I been up to? Not much really. All I can really say about the weekend is Pride happened, which was cool, My bar did an event for it, and we were rammed until 6 in the morning, which was... interesting. I'm also slowly catching up with season 2 of the Flash too, which is cool. The Flash is my favourite DC super hero, so I quite enjoy the series. Either way, here's the chapter:

Chapter 73 - The Festival Of The Dead (9)

Have fun! And if you want to throw me some support on my Patreon, I would appreciate it a lot.

Countrywide Hokey Kokey

Hey all!
New chapter is out, second last chapter of the ongoing arc, and the midpoint of the fifth floor. There's only one more arc in the story to go, and I cannot wait to finish it. Then I can start work on publishing the book and writing book number 2!

What's been going on since Wednesday? The EU referendum happened, and that... Well that was interesting. The UK has now left the loving arms of Europe, and we have NO idea what will happen in the future. The pound has weakened as a currency, Britain's economy has gone to shit, and there are talks about the UK as a whole splitting up. This is all a little awkward. So instead, have a chapter:

Chapter 72 - The Festival Of The Dead (8)

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting a poor writer, who is stuck on an island that may have just fucked itself, drop me a bone on Patreon.

Midweek Madness

Hey all!

Midweek DOUBLE BONUS chapter, because I felt like it. The Festival Of The Dead is coming to a close in the next couple of chapters, which will usher in the FINAL part of the book, so get ready for that. I included a short story I wrote a while ago in this week's update, showing some of the more monstrous beings that live in the tower, something that I have hinted at, but not actually explained in detail. You might see them in the next 100 chapters, but you might not. I dunno yet. we shall see.

What have I been up to since Monday? Sweet fuck all. Work. That's about it. Sorry. Not much to talk about here. Either way, here's the chapters:

Chapter 71 - The Festival Of The Dead (7)

Side Story 3 - South

Have fun! And if you want to support me, drop some clicks on my adverts or put a dollar down on Patreon. It won't mean much to you, but it would help me immensely. Plus you get access to all the other random shit I write when I'm not working on Babel.

It's Pissing It Down

Hey all!

New chapter is out. It's a shorter one than normal, but it's rather reminiscent of an earlier chapter in that respect. I'm probably going to do a release of a bonus chapter on Wednesday, with a couple of bonus short stories to boot. They are stories I wrote a long time ago, but lead to ideas that permeate through the Babel series. I might also release a chapter of another series I'm writing. But I have yet to decide on that.

What have I bee up to this weekend? Work. Work. Work. Lots of work. Other than that, not much. It rained a lot, so I might have a cold now. I don't know. Either way, here's the chapter:

Chapter 70 - The Festival Of The Dead (6)

Have fun! And if you can, drop me some money on Patreon. It would really help out.

Getting Swole

Hey all!

New chapter is out, it's a little bit of down time from the brutality of the last chapter, but by the title you can tell the festival isn't over yet. Not for a few chapters at least. I will say that the first half of the last arc will be finished either next Friday or Monday, then we move on the the LAST PART OF THE BOOK Wooo! We will break 70 chapters this Monday, so I might just release the end of the arc then and there to celebrate, but I don't know. I'll see how I feel.

What have I been up to? Well panicking about my computer being super old is one thing, but I've also spent the last few days getting back into a training regime. I'm not fat by most standards, but I'm not in as good shape as I would personally like, so I've decided to work on it. My hope is that by getting into better shape, I'll also help myself focus more, which will allow me to write more, better and more quickly. We shall see. Here's the chapter;

Chapter 69 - The Festival Of The Dead (5)

Have fun! And if you want to support me, I would really appreciate you donating to my Patreon. There are a few little rewards if you do, including your own ideas being added to the series (within reason, I'm not going to add a poopbutt material or something) or even your own namesake character. Check it out.

Not For The Faint Of Heart

Hey all!
New chapter is out, and damn this one is... Rough. There's a lot going on here, but it sets a few things in motion, and gives you a greater understanding of Jim's powers. I really wonder how people are going to react to the end of the chapter, as it is honestly one of the most visceral things I have written in the series so far. The over the top brutality of it is something I really enjoyed adding, because it makes you squirm like nothing else. Also Jim is pretty bad-ass in the situation. A lot more human than Laurence, but that's intentional!
What have I been up to this week? Well dealing with CPU issues mainly. My computer is old, and it's slowly approaching the end of its cycle, so I really need to get a new one. I am slowly upgrading it, but the most expensive parts are what I need to replace. So that's fun. Here's the chapter:

Chapter 68 - The Festival Of The Dead (4)

Have fun! And if you'd like to support me with my computer issues, or just thank me for writing, check out my Patreon and click some adverts. Every little helps.

It was supposed to be four...

Hey all!

Sorry about not having a chapter out on Monday, I was swamped by life. To make up for it I am releasing 3 chapters today! It was supposed to be four chapters, but I am only half done before I have to leave for work, so I can't do more than this. Either way, It's a big event, and is building up to the final half of the arc. WE ARE SO CLOSE TO THE END OF THE BOOK, BUT NEVER HAS IT SEEMED SO FAR AWAY. GODDAMMIT. Peter makes a return, and we go back to Laurence's POV after a few chapters of separation. I hope you like it.

What have I been up to this week? Well I kinda just put my head down and wrote for some of it, but other than that, it's just been work and Overwatch, through all the things. Seriously, that game is too good, and Tracer is a beast. Anyway, here's the chapters:

Chapter 65 - The Festival Of The Dead (1)
Chapter 66 - The Festival Of The Dead (2)
Chapter 67 - The Festival Of The Dead (3)

Have fun, and if you like it, give me a donation on Patreon, or click on my adverts a few times. It would help a lot!

Getting Popular

Hey all!
New chapter is out, it's more build up. There's a lot of that over the next 10 or so chapters, because everything is coming to a head in the series. This chapter is the first POV chapter from Jim, the THIRD protagonist of the series. There will be a couple more, but they aren't around yet. We're so close to the end of the book now, I can feel it!

What have I been up to? Overwatch, work, writing... Same old, same old really. The big thing for me is that this week we broke 30k views on the website! That's massive! Especially as it took 5 months to get to 20k. anyway, here's the chapter:

Chapter 64 - Paranoia

Have fun! And if you feel like giving me a birthday present, drop by my Patreon page. I would much appreciate it.
