February Update
Hello my friends! I wanted to thank all of you who have read my stories, but most of all those of you who have read Conquest and Glory till it’s end. I had a few—that I know of—loyal readers who read every chapter and liked them, as well as my other stories, so thank you very much. And thank you to anyone who has subscribed and has read my stories, I appreciate it.
Conquest and Glory is done. It took longer than it should have, but I am satisfied with its current state, and I wouldn’t have been if I had forced myself to go faster. It feels weird being finished but it had to happen, and I was looking forwards to it. While I didn’t dislike writing it, I am looking forward to working on my next project which will, when finished, be posted on here chapter by chapter, and I am about to give you some sneak peaks at what I am about to work on and what my schedule here will look like in the future.
Since Conquest and Glory is done, I consider my two week window done as well. I will be now posting new stories more infrequently, but I will continue to post them as well as updates and maybe some reposts of older stuff that many of you have not seen. I won’t give any set day expect that new stories, posts, ect. will continue to be shared on Saturdays for ease, maybe some exceptions here and there.
Now for the good stuff, what to expect. I hope you liked Three, Vinn, and Asuka as much as I do, as well as Galin, Michael, and Rosie, for they will return. Three shortly, and Galin sometime when I can finish the idea, but I don’t want to rush that. Also along with with my next stories will be a table of contents for Conquest and Glory, (I know, that should have been done when it was finished) and one for Fragments and Pieces, gathering all of my pieces of fiction, into one place, to be pinned on my home page. As for what my longer project will be, it’s about Vikings, and I’ll share a description of our Heroine.
Her name is Astrid Ulfsdotter. She is tall, taller than most women and many men, and so great is her beauty that she been given the title of Daughter of Freyja or Freyjasdotter, but it is a cold and hard beauty. Her fair hair is long, and kept out of her eyes with a leather band. A shieldmaiden, Astrid wears a hauberk of scale mail, with steel scales smithed in the shape of the scales of a nidhogg, some say that they are the scales of a nidhogg. Upon her brow is a helm that shines like the full moon, and is winged like a Valkyrie’s. She wields great spear with a deadly skill, able to stand her own against many of the best warriors, and at her side is her shield. To her enemies she is cold and ruthless, but to her friends she is true and loyal, willing to fight and to die for those she loves. Her brother Ivor, is the village smith, and he is strong, though not as warlike and thirsting for battle as Astrid might be.
As I said before, I am not leaving substack, but I won’t be posting as regularly or frequently for a little while. Good day and my friends and readers, hopefully this wont take me too long.
God bless
