《Empire of Night》Quick Letter from Sven

Happy Valentines Day!
I hope you lovelies are doing well!
I wanted to give you all a quick update regarding my unintentional hiatus. Long story short - life happened. All is well now though! I’ll be back on schedule as far as posts go come March 1st. I have a few kinks to iron out as far as the story goes and I’d like to figure out some issues on RR’s side. I’ve been reading a lot lately, mostly outside of RR, and I’ve noticed certain narrative mistakes in other popular novels that I’d rather like to avoid. I want to share the best story possible for you guys.
This year, I’m going to take my writing much more seriously. As such, I started up an instagram for those who are interested: @svenwritesbooks, where I’ll be sharing art, the new cover for book one, as well as some fun world building tid-bits and such. If you’re into that sort of thing, follows are always appreciated! If not, no worries at all :) As far as Patreon goes, I’m going to tweek things until book two. I’m thinking of just having a single, three dollar tier for those who are interested. I can’t in good conscience promise advanced chapters at this time, so I’m going to remove those tiers all together. However, I’m trying to think of some good incentives for the basic tier, if anyone has any suggestions!
Love you guys!

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.
