I Added A Queue

Hey all!

So I'm late, as usual. I'm about half done on the next chapter, but over the next 10 days I am going to be VERY busy at work, because over the Christmas to new year period it's insane. I will try to keep as up to date as possible, but I am just dropping a warning for you all now. This time I might not be releasing not because of anything going on in my head but rather because I'll be working solidly. Now that I've covered that, I have three chapters to release! I'll be releasing the three I owe (2 Babel and 1 From Ashes) as soon as I can, but I've not had the best couple of weeks. My head has not been in a great place most of the time, but when it has been in a good place it's been really nice. Anyway, I'm sorry about the lateness and here's the chapters I owe!

Chapter 9 - Going Home

Chapter 10 - A New Target

Chapter 11 - Misty Peaks

Have fun, and as always if you like my work then talk about it, hit me up on Amazon or buy someone my book for Christmas!

-Seth

I Exist To Be Late

Hey all!

My point is in the title, I'm running late on everything today, but I would not be running late last night if my PC hadn't needed to update for an hour and a half (thanks Microsoft). Either way, I'm doing the two Babel chapters I owe for Monday and will be releasing the Wednesday chapter when I get home. Gaaah.

Chapter 7 - Departing The Haven

Chapter 8 - The Lip Of The Well

As always, have fun and if you feel like supporting me then spread the word about my book or buy it or review it or drop me something on patreon! I will get better at this eventually ;_;

-Seth

Swingdown Town

Hey all!

Sorry about being AWOL with the chapters over the last week. It's not been intentional, in fact the Wednesday update WAS on time, I was just knackered and forgot to post about the chapter actually being released. I know, so smart of me.

Either way, you have two new Babel chapters for your perusal and one new part to chapter 1 of From Ashes! I'll try and get two babel chapters out on Monday to make up for the missed chapter and then we should be back on track. The next update will have a milestone attached to it by the way. It will be the marking point for 10% of the story, so we should only have 70 odd chapters to go from that point on! Woo! Anyway, here's the chapters:

Chapter 5 - Potential

Chapter 6 - Discourse

From Ashes Chapter 1.5

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me then check me out on Patreon or Amazon. It would help me out a lot!

-Seth

Midweek lateness

Hey all!
Late release, and a little fixing up of my site. Did not realise that all the links for From Ashes were broken, so I've fixed them. Should be cool now. I've also released the fourth part of chapter 1! So enjoy that for your midweek release! It's still coming. Have fun!

Chapter 1.4 - Rebirth (4)

As always, if you want to support me then check out my book on amazon and my patreon!
-Seth

On Time? On time.

Hey all!
I got some good news! I finally actually decided to release the first FOUR parts of From Ashes! You'll be able to find it in the From Ashes TOC on the sidebar. I'll probably do a mass release once the first chapter is out in its entirety, but I'm splitting it up into 1000 odd word sections. That still means you've got about 5000 words worth of story there for your perusal, and that will only grow!
In other news, the next chapter is out! It's a slightly shorter than average one, but it's pretty important. It gives some hints to the past and the future of Laurence's story, so you can have some fun with that. Finally, I've moved the short chapter of the Vermilion Sovereign to the new 'scraps' section of the site, because I've not really got much more than the written stuff out there. Anyway, here's the new chapter!

Chapter 4 - The Letter

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me then hit me up on Patreon or buy my book on Amazon!
- Seth

WHY DO I SUCK?

Hey all,
Gonna make this one short as I have to rush off to work (Like usual) I don't know why but I suck at posting chapters now that I've got out of the habit of it. I'm going to work on that. The important thing is that I am getting on top of it and I will be overcoming that as soon as I can. I will be releasing the first three parts of From Ashes tomorrow as a dump instead of chapter by chapter in order to make up for the tardiness, but here's the two Babel chapters I owe you for this week! I hope you enjoy them, this part of the story is a little bit more introspective I think, but there are callbacks that I have been planning since CHAPTER 2 OF BOOK 1 IN HERE, so enjoy~

Chapter 2 - What Madmen Do For Love

Chapter 3 - Mementos

Have fun, and if you like what I do, then buy my book or hit me up on patreon!

-Seth

I'M BACK BABY

Hey all!

I return, and will be posting something tomorrow to make up for me disappearing for way longer than I intended to, but jeez, I needed the time off. I'm going to work now, but I wanted to release at least one thing before the end of this week. Today I am releasing Chapter 1 of Babel 3, and tomorrow I will be releasing the prologue of my new series From Ashes! I have a good base for that, so I will be sticking to releasing one of From Ashes and 2 of Babel a week until whenever I finish editing Babel 2. Anyway, here's the chapter:

Chapter 1 - The Man on the Mountain

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me then buy my book or drop me something on Patreon!

-Seth

Two Down...

Hey all!

Sorry about the radio silence yesterday, I've been a bit frazzled the last few days for various reasons. Most of it is done with now. If I hadn't been so messed up I would have had the release ready for you yesterday.

THAT'S RIGHT. BOOK 2 IS COMPLETE! You can read it in its entirety now, and experience the journey of act 2 of Babel in full, but now onto act 3! As you all should know, I'm giving myself a week or so off to prepare for book 3 and to chill out before I start up again, and will be releasing two other stories simultaneously at a slower pace. 1 chapter of each a week at 1000 word intervals. This should allow me to write to my heart's content without being worried about being either hemmed in by short chapters or the constraints of releasing something every day. I've done one set of experiments and now want to see if it will turn out better or worse if I try a slightly different path. I'll still release Babel regularly, don't worry! either way, Here's the chapters:

Chapter 74 - The Valley of Kings (11)

Epilogue 1 - The Web of Time

Epilogue 2 - Yoth's Diary

Have fun, and I hope you've enjoyed the ride so far! As usual, you can get a copy of my first book on Amazon now, and you'll be able to get the second book in a few weeks, once I've done the editing and changed a few things. I really screwed up a lot of interactions between Law and Cleo in the early parts of book 2.

-Seth

Bugger This Week

Hey all,

You know when you have those weeks where nothing you plan goes the way you want it to? You're late to work, you burn your mouth on your dinner or you cut it open on some food that should not be as sharp as it was, minor stuff. Minor stuff that keeps happening and stacks up until you're a fucking mess and everything feels like it is falling apart? Well I've had one of those weeks. Nothing I've planned has gone the way I wanted it to and because of that I am behind on chapters, behind on everything and it's infuriating. I have the chapter that was supposed to be out on Tuesday done, but nothing else I have written has been worth keeping, not even stuff for my side stories that I don't publish. It sucks! I didn't want you guys to go without the chapter though, because I should have finished Heaven this week, so I'm going to try and write it over the weekend, and do a double chapter release with a chapter of the story I am writing at the same time as Babel, something I've tentatively called From Ash to Diamond. This is my present to you guys to make up for flaking. Either way, here's the chapter:

Chapter 73 - The Valley of Kings (10)

Have fun, and if you want to support me, then tell people about my amazon stuff!

-Seth

Little Late Monday

Hey all!

New chapter is out, a little later than usual, but on the day for once! Things are really coming to a close now, I think it's two more chapters of the story then the epilogue and book 2 of Babel - The Path To Ascension will be over! As I said last time, when I finish I'm going to be taking a week off to write the start of book 3 and to begin editing book 2. Unlike last time, I don't want book 2 to be in editing purgatory for a year so I'm going to be releasing that ASAP. Anyway, here's the chapter:

Chapter 72 - The Valley of Kings (9)

Have fun, and if you want to support me, then check out my book on Amazon and tell your friends!

It's Friday!

Hey all!

New chapter is out and the combat is happening! Fights are happening all over the place, but I'm hoping you all enjoy the next few chapters. There should be three to go excluding the epilogue! I hope you're enjoying the journey because it's about to take a turn for the final book! Either way, here's the chapter:

Chapter 71 - the Valley of Kings (8)

Have fun, and if you want to support me then buy my book on Amazon!

-Seth

I Did a Silly

Hey all!

So I missed a day yesterday, much apologies about that. It was not my intention, but I kinda fell asleep before the chapter was complete. I spent most of this evening making up for that, and starting the combat that we have been working up to for the last two weeks! I'm pretty hyped in all honesty, because there's really not too long to go until I'm done with book 2. It's pretty exciting! Once I complete book 2 I'm probably going to take a week off to edit book 2 and write a couple of chapters to start book 3. Once that's done I'll likely be sinking down to 3 chapters published a week, on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. 

I'll still be writing 5, but I want to start publishing my second and third series' respectively. I am thinking of releasing them on Tuesday and Thursday in 1000 word bursts. One is a more classic fantasy story, with wizards, knights and cthulean monsters. The other is a cyberpunk LitRPG that I started writing recently. Don't worry, I'll still be focusing on Babel, but this way there's a little extra on the site coming out regularly. I do really like writing and releasing daily, so I want to keep that up. It's healthy for me! Anyway, here's the chapters:

Chapter 69 - The Valley of Kings (6)

Chapter 70 - The Valley of Kings (7)

Have fun, and if you want to support me then buy my book on Amazon! Tell your friends and have a good day!

- Seth

Soon...

Hey all!

The battle is about to begin! It's so soon! I reckon that by Wednesday week after next the second book will be done. It'll end a bit abruptly, but I have to say that I'm happy I'm 2/3 of the way through the story. I'm going to be happy when I complete it. Either way, here's the chapter:

Chapter 67 - The Valley of Kings (5)

Have fun, and enjoy! If you feel like supporting me then buy my book and tell your friends about it!

- Seth

Beyond Up to Date

Hey all!

New chapter is out, and with the chapters that have been released so far, I believe I am actually up to date once more! Woo! The new chapter is a bit short, but this is the final non-MC POV chapter before the end of the book... Okay maybe there's one more in the work but I am not sure about including it. It's only really worth a paragraph, but it explains the cause for the end of the book.

Either way, my knee is feeling better this week. I slept a hell of a lot yesterday and am on form once more! I wonder how long it will last :x Here's the chapter:

Chapter 67 - The Valley of Kings (4)

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me, then buy my book or tell your friends about it!

- Seth

Skipped a Day

Hey all!

Sorry about skipping a day but I have crippling knee pain. I've had it since I was a child, apparently when I was nine my bones were growing too quickly for my muscles to keep up with and it screwed up my knees. I went through physio and you'd never be able to tell now, but I occasionally have knee issues because of it. No biggie generally, but yesterday was a little rough. Anyway, here's the chapter for you!

Chapter 66 - The Valley of Kings (3)

Have fun, and if you want to support me, check me out on Amazon and tell your friends!

Fortnite-ly Early Post

Hey all!

chapter is out earlier today, because I feel like it and because I want to play the new Fortnite battle royale game before work. It's pretty fun. New chapter revisits something that Laurence has not done in a while, potion making! But he's on the track to the end game now. I think the entire final section should be around fifteen chapters long, so enjoy the end of the ride! I hope the ending is a goodun!

Here's the chapter:

Chapter 65 - The Valley of Kings (2)

Have fun, and if you want to support me, tell your friends about my book or buy it on amazon!

-StormEater

Midweek Madness

Hey everyone!

New chapter is out! Woot woot! It's the beginning of the end for book 2 of Babel! The next ten chapters or so are going to get a little crazy, so I hope you can keep up. I'm going to focus on them, but I have a feeling that within about two weeks, the book will be done. I might be wrong and go a little over, but soon enough book 2 will be released :D Either way, here's the chapter:

Chapter 64 - The Valley of Kings (1)

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me then check me out on Amazon!

-StormEater

Soon (TM)

Hey all!

Quick update and a shorter chapter today. Running late for work, but I wanted to get this out. An old face returns, and things are heating up everywhere. Plots are twisting and turning, and soon the conclusion of Heaven will be rearing its ugly face. I hope you all enjoy it, as I'm excited to get it out of my head.

I started writing another new story while on my way to work yesterday, and I'm enjoying it. I may announce it when I reach the end of the first book, because after releasing Babel, I never want to write something without a decent backlog again. This has been hellish when I have fallen behind, so I don't intend to do it again. Either way, here's the chapter.

Chapter 63 - The Holy Daughter

Have fun, and if you want to buy my book, you can on amazon! Check it out!

- StormEater

Week 3, and 150!

Hello everybody!

New milestone! 150 chapters! Who'd have thought I would have actually reached that? (Especially seeing how I disappeared for 4 months... Oops) I'm back though! And back on track roughly! (I was about 16 chapters behind and I'm 2 behind now. It should be complete in 3 weeks I think, which is pretty solid IMO. I'll be done with writing the book before November and editing it so it's out by Christmas at the latest! Woo!

New chapter is out, it's an okay one, but there's an important couple of lines in it. It's all building up for the finale in the third book. I hope it's a fun journey for you all! Here's the chapter:

Chapter 62 - Stealth

Have fun, and if you feel like buying my book then you can here! Spread the word! I would much appreciate it!

-StormEater

Skipped A Day

Hey all!

Sorry about skipping yesterday, I was kinda everywhere yesterday and couldn't post. Here's yesterday and today's chapter to make up for the miss! Gotta run to work now, so here's the chapters:

Chapter 60 - Third Heaven

Chapter 61 - Arid

Have fun, and if you want to buy my book check it out on Amazon!

-StormEater

History Repeating

Hey all!

New chapter is out, and I'm bingeing on an album while I write. It's from 2014 and is called History Repeating by a band called the Megas. It's pretty great honestly, and while was not something I was 100% into when I first listened to it, I quickly grew to LOVE it. It's an amazing album if you're a fan of megaman at all. For some reason I had never really looked into the album at all, even though I'm a pretty big fan of the series' myself. How silly of me.

Anyway, new chapter is out, and I kinda phoned it in with the next two chapters, but I promise, the finale is coming soon! SOON. Here's the chapter:

Chapter 59 - Drained

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me then buy my book on amazon and tell your friends!

AHHHHHHH

Hey all!

I would have actually had this chapter out about an hour ago if I hadn't nearly had a panic attack because I discovered one of my notebooks had had the ink washed out of it somehow. I spent the first three hours I was awake today repairing it and rewriting the planning section of EIGHT books (that's right, this note book is VERY important to me) through the impressions left on the page by my pen, spy style. It was horrifying and I'm pretty sure I only made like four mistakes.

Either way, the chapter is out, and I'm about to leave for work. It's a little chapter before an important set of about... four chapters, then the finale will begin! It's been building up for a long time, and at the pace I'm going I should actually be on track for the release I would have had if I hadn't disappeared off the face of the earth for months. I'm going to try and not do that again. It was not cool. Anyway, here's the chapter:

Chapter 58 - Family Reunion.

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me then buy my book on amazon!
-StormEater

Start of a new week!

Hello everybody!

How's it going? New week, new chapters, new times. I'm gonna release 5 more chapters this week and I hope to have a proper buffer by the end of the week too. Should be fun. Next few chapters are the last character building ones before I write the finale. I hope you like the ending because it's something I've had stuck in my head since the beginning of my writing. The original image and line that made me write will soon be out in the world and I'm so happy. Here's the chapter:

Chapter 57 - Thinking With Portals

Have fun, and if you want to buy my book, then click here!

-StormEater

It's been one week!

Since you looked at me, cocked your head to the side and said you're angry.

I kid! Hello everyone! Happy Friday! Chapter is out, it's a decent one though I think the next couple are going to be a bit blah. They have to be done though, they lead to the finale of Book 2! I seriously reckon that book 2 is going to be a shorter novel than Book 1, which I think is fair enough. Not much shorter, but shorter by maybe 10 chapters? That should mean that Book 2 should be out some time next year by my previous record. I intend for Book 2 to be earlier than that, and for Book 3 to be out in the summer. Maybe it won't be, but I can live in hope :P

Either way, here's the chapter:

Chapter 56 - Dannan

have fun, and if you feel like buying my book, then here you can!

-StormEater

Day Four

Waddup!

I always seem to be running late, I swear, but new chapter is out and it's a little bit of relaxation in comparison to the tension we've kept up for the last fifteen or so chapters. It should make for a nice change of pace for you all, so enjoy it!

Chapter 55 - A Momentary Respite

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me, swing by on Patreon, which has a working link now, or buy my book on amazon! Also no, I will never stop pushing my book.

-StormEater

Bed Time

Oh my god it's late for me. I have been running so late today, but I've done my writing and can finally sleep!

Here's the chapter, and I'll make sure it's not late tomorrow!

Chapter 54 - Lust

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me then buy my book!

- StormEater

Day Two!

Two days in a row! Wooo!

Can't say much about it as I have to leave for work again, but hey. The chapter is out!

Chapter 53 - Ascent

Have fun, and if you want to read my book in a different format, you can buy it on Amazon!

Sticking to it!

First day of the new publishing challenge and I had writers block for most of it. Good going Seth, good going. Chapter is released, no worries, but I need to do some more work! Gotta get to work though, so here's the chapter!

Chapter 52 - Malkuth

Have fun, and if you want to support me or are just interested in getting hold of the first book in a better, more portable form than wasting your precious internet you can buy my book on amazon!

- StormEater

Daily Double!

Hey all!

On my way to work, but I have another chapter lined up for you all! I'm trying to go for weekday releases until the end of Heaven because it is a target I can attain if I push myself, so here I go. Here's the first release for this! Hopefully I can last a week @_@

Chapter 51 - Shade Across His Heart

Have fun, and remember my book is now on Amazon! It's worth it, I promise!

- StormEater

What's That Rising From The Grave?

Yes, I am not dead!

I am back, and I intend to stay that way, all the way until the completion of the third book and beyond! Sorry about my 4 month disappearance, to cut a long story short I have something called bipolar disorder and can be rather erratic because of it. I know it doesn't excuse me from disappearing but it is an explanation.

Either way, I'm back now and with some pretty massive news! First, you can now buy an edited and fully compiled version of the first book on amazon! I know it's rather late, but it was something I could actually focus on doing while I was dead to the world. I've also got a MASSIVE present for you, that of 9 chapters tonight and another one tomorrow! WOW RIGHT?

Also if you feel like chilling with me and chatting with me while I write, I'm going to be streaming my writing during the mornings my time. I know it's not the best time for all of you, but if you feel like popping in and saying hello I would much appreciate your feedback! You can find me on twitch here. Anyway, here's the chapter dump!

Chapter 42 - Seal

Chapter 43 - Pillar of Trial

***

Chapter 49 - Tiphereth

Chapter 50 - Samael

Have fun guys! If you've enjoyed the story so far, grab the full edit on Kindle and read it through properly, it's actually a surprisingly different experience to not read it chapter by chapter.

- Stormeater

What TUESDAY?

Hey all!

I'm a little bit of a moron this week, as I forgot to publish the update on Friday, and yesterday, even though the chapters were ready. So congratulations to the eight people who discovered there were chapters and read them, you are the real MVPs. Here's a full release of the last three chapters, so there's that. Also, thank you to all the people who are coming over from Royal Road now I am updating there again. It's heartening to see the traffic of the series increase because of that.

What have I been up to this week? Well mainly work really. It's what I do most of the time, but I've had more shifts than normal and that has been rather tiring. It doesn't help that I've just spent time getting over the fact that I'm ill and also I am going to be moving house in the near future. Makes for a tired and grumpy author. I'm happy we've passed chapter forty though. It's a pretty big milestone, especially as the chapter I will be releasing on Friday will be 130 of the series as a whole, which is CRAZY in my opinion. I can't believe I've written so much so far, and that I actually have people to read it. Thank you everyone, seriously. Anyway, here's the chapters:

Chapter 39 - Loss

Chapter 40 - Grief

Chapter 41 - Wrath

Have fun, and as usual if you enjoy what I'm doing please support me by clicking some adverts and upvoting me on reddit if you come from there. I really appreciate it.

- StormEater

I Hate Being Ill

Hey all!

So I've been ill for the last couple of weeks and it's been a real drag, but I'm finally getting back into form with things, and have a triple release for you to make up for it! I'm going to try and get back on to things, so Monday WILL have a release, and it could even be the double release that I promised. I just really don't want to be ill anymore @_@ It sucks.

The new chapters are building up to the first major twist of the current book, I hope it terrifies you, because I'm really not sure how people will take it. More to come soon! Either way, here are the chapters:

Chapter 36: Escape

Chapter 37: Hod

Chapter 38: Collapse

Have fun, and if you want to support me, click some adverts and upvote me on reddit!

Bah Humbug

Hey all!

I suck at this. I said I was going to release two chapters on Monday, but I failed, and instead am releasing one on Tuesday. Better than nothing, but I need to work on my consistency. It's a bit of a problem for me in life, at the moment and in general I find. I'm running late for work, so I won't talk much, but the new chapter is out and it's showing the group as a whole in a little more detail than I usually do. I've been thinking of how to improve my writing and I've decided to add more conversation into my text. It may make the story longer as a whole, but I think you will appreciate it in the end. Here you go:

Chapter 35 - Trap!

Have fun, and as usual, clicks and upvotes are much appreciated!

-StormEater

Well This Is Awkward

Hey all!

So I missed a few releases, and I'm a chapter or two behind where I was supposed to be, but I'm back on track and managed to write a lot I'm actually happy with over the last few days, which means that I have four chapters to release, and I'm trying to get two out on Monday and two out on Friday to make sure I'm actually up to date with chapters again. I've been writing two chapters a week for over a year now, so I should be a little better at releasing on time by now. Oh well.

Either way, there's four chapters out today. We're finally moving on from the eleventh floor and I cannot believe it! It's taken forever, but we are finally out of the frying pan and slowly moving into the fire of the main plot of book 2. I hope you guys like it, because it's going to be pretty crazy. Either way, here you go:

Chapter 31 - A Discourse In Arms

Chapter 32 - Repercussions of Successful Plans

Chapter 33 - Twelfth Floor Intermission

Chapter 34 - The Monologue of a Madman

Have fun! And if you're feeling like supporting me, click on some ads or upvote on reddit. It would go a long way to spreading the word about the novel.

-StormEater

One Day I Will Arrive On Time

Hey all!

New chapter is out, sorry about the delay, I wasn't happy with the chapter so I rewrote a massive amount of it before releasing. The story is going in a slightly different route, but it will get to the same conclusion either way, so I'm fine with it. Next chapter will be out on Friday, and I hope to have no problems with that, but if I miss it, I will make sure it's out on Saturday. Anyway, here's the new chapter:

Chapter 30 - Fear of Failing

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me, give me some ad-clicks and upvote me on the reddits.
-StormEater

Getting Back Into A Routine

Hey all!

It's magic, it's incredible, it's a chapter that's ON TIME! Surprise surprise. I know, I can't believe it either. Anyway, the new chapter is here and we will soon be moving on from the kingdom of Biqiril and Yun's new realm to the next floor of the tower soon enough. I hope you like it.

As for me, I've got work in a bit, so I'm going to be leaving now. If you're enjoying the series why don't you click an advert or upvote me on reddit. It would be amazing to receive your support. Either way, here's the chapter!

Chapter 29 - The Absolution Codex

Have fun!

-StormEater

I RETURN FROM THE DEAD

Hey all!

Well this is a surprise, it's been two months since I last updated and I'm really sorry about that. I've just been super busy with work and being sick. It's not been fun, but I'm back with several chapters to boot, and hopefully a regular schedule to get back into shape with. That should be fun.

So there's four whole chapters coming out today, with another coming out on Friday. I'm not just dying, and I WILL be finishing Babel no matter what, so don't worry about it being dropped. I just took some time off. Anyway, here's the chapters:

Chapter 25 - Ascension
Chapter 26 - Running Down The Mountain
Chapter 27 - The Golem Returns
Chapter 28 - Heaven

Have fun, and if you feel like supporting me or celebrating my return, check me out on Patreon or click some adverts. It would really help.
