Once upon a time, back in college, an 18 year old version of myself started chatting with a woman who went by Snow Tigra. Eventually, we started dating, and the way we would stay in touch since we were long distance was by roleplaying withdifferent anime and video game characters. After graduation, I moved up to Minnesota, and we began to live together.
About a year after living together, our apartment was broken into. Our laptops were stolen along with some other items, and we had to start our roleplay over. This is when the idea of the “Storyteller” was born.
The Storyteller is a creature that lives in a large library, and each book represents a person’s life. The Storyteller has the power to add things to a person’s story, or take things out, giving him completely control over someone’s life. With this idea in mind, we ended up creating different characters, each with their own motives and connections to one another. But the central question still remained: if you could change any aspect of your life, would you?
In “Seeking the Storyteller,” Alix Andre DeBenit would do anything to change one horrific moment of his life. However, it means that he has to push aside his beliefs and work with the very creatures he’s sworn to kill: demons.
It’s hard to believe that what once started out as a silly little roleplay with the girl I just met is now becoming a book series. The first will be available next week. Join the event and learn all about a world where you can change the past, but at what cost?
THE THING IS HAPPENING THIS IS THE THING I WAS ANXIOUS ABOUT TODAY!
AnonymousThese people said it best:
- Just take the day off. You don’t have a boss to tell you no.
- Bill is a common last name for writers’ bosses. Light Bill, Phone Bill, Insurance Bill, Internet Bill. The Bills are kind of jerky if they don’t get paid. Another common name – Deadline.
- Write about me! Writer about me! Write about me!
- Okay, but you need to know the accident will be so horrible your coffin has to be closed.
- It’s not like you have a real job.
- That one makes me want to give the person’s shin a real bruise.
- I wish my job was as easy as yours.
- Please, have a seat. Write something. Not much, just 500 words that are good enough to satisfy the Bills. I.Dare.You.
- How much do you get paid?
- Writers shouldn’t get paid. All you do is sit all day.
- You act like writing is a real job, like a job a man gets.
- That neighbor wonders why I don’t speak to her.
- Maybe you’ll have a life when you quit writing and get a job.
- It must be nice to be home all day so you can get your housework and laundry done while you work.
- I can’t use the keyboard and load the washers at the same time but thanks for thinking I’m that talented. Now go the eff away.
- You’re home all day so can you babysit for me?
- Sure, as long as you don’t mind me putting Junior in an empty stall in the barn so I can get my work done.

Reblogging for truth.
Puppet the Cat thinks she’s being helpful in my editing. She’s not. She’s not really helpful at all.
Yes I’m listening to random Sonic the Hedgehog music DON’T JUDGE ME!
“Maybe he’s right. Maybe I am the cause of this. Maybe you were normal before meeting me.”
When something tragic happens, you want nothing more than to close your eyes and make all of the pain go away. For Gable Peterson it’s a little more complicated than that. When detective Maurice Ashford shows up at his door with news that his boyfriend, Avery Blair, has been found dead, Gable is left devastated. Seeking some sort of comfort, Gable closes his eyes and imagines a world where none of this happened.
Only, when Gable wakes up, he’s surprised to see that Avery is still alive.
My second book is out now! The physical copy should be about a month away, but now you can get the ebook copy <3 Thanks for your support, everyone :) The third book, “Seeking the Storyteller,” will be available soon!

Cecil Baldwin (via psychosassic) This speaks to me in so many ways. I remember in college, writing a story about two women getting together, and a lot of the feedback I got was, “Oh wait she’s gay why didn’t you say it in the beginning,” and, “Why didn’t she come out,” and I was like, “… why does it always have to be like that?” Why can’t a gay character just, you know, be gay? Why does it have to be this huge ordeal and, more importantly, why does it have to be the main focus? Granted, my next book “Double Hue” focuses on a serial killer who targets gay men and whatnot, but I’d like to think that my main couple is more than just, you know, “the gay couple.” They’re a couple. They’re in love. One plays video games. He’s a geek. Yeah they’re worried about coming out to their parents, but at the same time its like, “There’s a killer on the loose o.k. and this guy is in danger,” and just… I want people to root for them because they’re a couple in love, not just because they’re gay, if that makes any sense. Like no matter who the couple is, you want them to make it out of this situation. The joint book with my wifey, “Seeking the Storyteller,” we have all sorts of couples. Straight, gay, trans (later), and just… the world is a diverse place. It’s so diverse, and vast and there’s so many different people. That’s what we want to show. The secretary has a female love interest, that’s cool, but there’s more to her then that. There’s more to think about in the book then the lesbian. That’s not the main focus with her. That’s like, 5% of her character. There’s no moment of “omg you’re a lesbian” and things like that, because that doesn’t always need to be there. She’s in a bar, the bartender flirts with her, she likes it, they hook up, yay. But the main focus is, “omg there’s demons to worry about gotta protect the city,” and all that. You know, that boy has a dragon that makes him use ice. That creature has a book that can be written in, and whatever you write comes true. This woman runs an entire group of dragons who can use fire at will. That thing is made of shadows. Just… “lesbian” is the last thing to think about. It’s just like what he’s saying about Night Vale. Cecil and Carlos are great, it’s wonderful, but how can you just focus on that when there’s this town that’s so bizarre? Like yes, there’s two men together, but there’s these hooded figures, and a dog park, and is that a dragon running for mayor, and what’s wrong with the wheat byproducts, and what’s up with the high school football team, and angels, and… yeah, so much more to think about. |
That moment when you finally finish editing your first novel!
Wifey finished editing, now it’s my turn!
She would create monsters just so he could feel human again.
—random line that popped up in my head about “Hunters.” It may or may not mean something later.
Late night thoughts going on.
So there’s this great 1940s yaoi webcomic called “Grave Impressions“ that I got the first book of at ACEN this year. The creators are great, and the story is really interesting so far. They’re hosting a year anniversary contest, so I thought I’d take a crack at it :) And you should definitely read the webcomic!
Summary: The most important rule of the one night stand is to not get attached to who you’re “standing” with. Unfortunately, Napoleon is never one to follow the rules.
Notes: I’m fairly certain it hasn’t come up in the actual comic, so I came up with a random story.
Warnings: Yaoi, sexy times
I wrote a smutty thing for a contest thing. It has been a really long time since I wrote fanfic so I hope I remember how to do the thing.
