Yo!

it's me, author-dude. Just wanted to make a quick post to say that I'm still writing and that I'm cooking up a new story in a similar vein to Lost Loop. It's called Super Villain System(cue the dramatic music) based around I funny idea I had floating in my head that stayed somewhat funny when I started writing. It's supposed to fall in that strange mixed ground of being a super/adventure/comedy novel, similar to the two books I got the idea from: Perfect Run and Industrial Strength Magic.

I was planning on posting it about a month ago, but I have encountered a conundrum. If you weren't aware, RR has a system by which books are marketed after they reach a word count/chapter/engagement threshold. Rising Stars is the most obvious example of this, and it can make or break your book depending on whether the algorithm judges you worthy or not.

This is relevant because I feel my writing is much more whole in bigger doses, meaning that my natural chapter length is not exactly meta on something like RR. Not a problem, because I can just build up chapters, but that's going to take a hot minute and I'd like to at least get some eyes on the book before then.

So, where does this lead us? Well, I've made a Patreon. A free Patreon for the time being that should have all but the chapter I'm still working on available to read. The chapters are so raw and unedited and subject to retcon that I figured I may as well just let anyone that wants to read them, read them until I've sorted it out. They are there now and should be open for anyone that browses to see. I'll link it in the author's note below.

Unauthorized content usage: if you discover this narrative on Amazon, report the violation.

I hope you do take the time to read it or at least give it a skim. It may be rough around the edges, but I think it's tense, goofy and overall fun to read.

anyway, I'll leave this off with the synopsis. No pressure to read as I know this isn't the book you're following me for, just thought I'd let you know.

Something is really, really wrong with the world.

Beyond the eldritch horror encroaching from beyond and the invasive species of man-eating aliens, something about the Federation of Man just isn't right.

Super hero's aren't much of hero's anymore and super villains... well they just aren't super. Sure they have power to tangle with the best of them, but where's the pizzazz! Where's the I.T factor? Where are the red buttons of weapons of mass destruction and catchphrases? Where are the bowler hats and patting cats?

The Federation of Man is desperately lacking a proper Super Villain.

Luckily for them, there might just be one on the rise.

Because Luke's was fine with being a cashier, watching Villainy be made a mockery of by amateurs.

But after being robbed, electrocuted, robbed, beaten and then robbed again all in the same week some screws might've gotten knocked loose. Because the state of Villainy is not fine and Luke's bored, crazy and stupid enough to believe he can change it.

And apparently, some mystic jackass named the Architect thinks so too, planting a system on Luke that only wants one thing from him.

Evil... done right!

So yeah, if you wanna read more of my Shiz. It's there.

Just waiting.
