James Howlette: Blog

Hello all,

I am happy to announce that Book 4 has been completed. This weekend I will be posting a complete copy on my Patreon page and Sunday I will post an extra chapter, putting Patreon 3 chapters ahead of Storiesonline.

I am also happy to say I have already jumped into writing Book 2 of Would you like to play again - The Champion's Challange. I look forward to sharing this journey with all of you.

Again I would like to thank Robin Pentacost for his awesome work. His help makes my work better. I would also like the thank all of you for taking the time to read my work and sharing both Davik's and Pathios' journey with me.

I have to say I am surprised. I never thought that a story of mine would reach that number, but you readers have proven me wrong. First steps was a big thing for me, as it not only increased the amount of people reading and following me, but it also was a different form of writing. With Davik I just let thing naturally evolve in regards to how he spoke and reacted. A "I think he would do this" approach. With Pathios, I have come to write it as if I was the person reborn there. It has made me that much more attached to the character.

I am happy to say that soon I will break ground on the next book and look forward to sharing it with you all. Thank you again for your support and encouragement. It means a lot

Hello all,

It has be brought to my attention that the scene transitions are not as they should be. I will be going through the posts this weekend and adjusting them so it is easier to follow. I apologize for the confusion caused by the unmarked changes of focus.

I am pleased to say I am in the final chapters of book 4 and hope to be through them soon. Once that is done I am going to hop back onto Would You Like To Play Again. In the case of Pathios I may change my format slightly. I think in his case I will make it one continuous posting, but break up the chapters by book. That way it is all there and available to the reader.

I had been worried that doing a serial could be problematic if writers block occurs but I have found a few methods to bypass that over the last few years. I look forward to continuing his journey with you all together.

Thank you all for your kind words and messages, they have all been appreciated. I will endeavour to continue to work hard at my craft, so that I can give you stories that we all can be proud of.

For now, keep safe and thanks for reading.

Hello and thank you everyone,

I never really expected to hit that number when is started and I am shocked that I have. I expected it to slow or even begin to decrease, due to my change in postings. I appreciate the kind words and support you all are giving me and I am working hard to continue to produce at the levels I can at present.

I am over 2/3 through Book 4 and hope to be done it soon. Once I am, I am hopping straight into book two for Pathios' story. For now it seems that it will have to stay to once a week. However, unlike before I do not seem to be stuck in writers block so I might change things up a bit.

I have a story or two still bouncing around in my brain and if I can manage it, i may be posting two stories at a time. We will have to see how things go and I will let you all know closer to the end of blood moon.

Book 4 will end Davik's quest for justice against the voguel. That does not mean I will not return to the world at a future date.

I do want to thank all those who still support me on Patreon. I know that times are tough on everyone right now and I have understood that many may end up not affording to continue their support. I still thank you for your contributions and i wanted you to know that it has helped me during this crisis. I hope all those who are following my work are keeping safe.

Have a great week and keep safe everyone.

Hello all,

I am happy to say that everything is now fixed, thought it required uninstalling and reinstalling office to do so. Both posts have been completed, with the chapter for here posting as soon as the webmasters process it.

Thank you everyone who messaged me to help with the issue, it was very much appreciated.
