The Color of Steel - postapocalyptic animu shipgirl noir
« on: September 01, 2020, 07:26:58 pm »

Hi all, figured I'd shill my latest thing here. I've been working on a book for several months now and I had the genius idea of publishing a chapter at a time on Wattpad. It's a sci-fantasy story consisting of most of my favorite settings mashed together into something that is (hopefully) new.

The link is here.
FictionPress link if the above doesn't work.
To copy my blurb. . .
Quote
In a world where cities sit atop mountains surrounded by deathly fog and the soul is a unique resource to be exploited by the owner, a grizzled veteran forced to retire by the march of time heads for an unexpected meeting. A girl with broken mind and body awakens knowing only what her mission must be. The past and future both pursue a young man, while the weary king rests his iron fist upon them all from afar. Peril and chaos lie in wait along the path to freedom and glory for all, and danger awaits in the most unexpected of places. The world asks only one question: can you keep walking forward?

Still talking with some artist friends about a cover. If you like it, please do check out the patreon link in the description.

Chapter 2 of 224's story has been posted. The story is also mirrored on FictionPress for those having issues with Wattpad.

...wew, seeing this when it was posted would have done wonders for my motivation

anyway I haven't been publishing for some time but CoS is not dead and I will definitely continue in the future, I'm just hoping to get settled in at a new job among other things like overcoming a bit of a block I've encountered. The story of 224 and Suvorov shall continue.
