Another excerpt from Ilmora, I really wanted to...
So that’s one reason why Ashland is evil and I fear that there are insane demonbeasts lurking in the shadows, the other is that those 36 of the 100 that die? They die in absolutely goddamn horrifying ways. One article I read described a man found dead in his apartment. I’m sorry, half a man found dead in his apartment. His lower body, his legs, were found shoved into the toilet. The...

An excerpt from Ilmora (Coming Soon)
Also, regarding the geography, I assume Ashland is built upon the mouth of Hell, or Erebus, or a dimensional rift that leads to a land of eldritch horrors, because this town is evil in just the most absolute and sinister way. The premature mortality rate in this town, that is the rate of people who die due to unnatural causes, is 36 percent. In a room of 100 citizens of Ashland, 36 of them will...

Update on the Final Chapter of Oktober
It was due out on the 11th. However, I didn’t update. Quite simply, it’s not ready. I was without a computer this weekend, so that delayed it a bit, but the true reason is that I’m having some difficulty writing it.
Well, that’s not exactly accurate. I’m loving writing it, it’s probably the most fun I’ve had with Oktober. The problem is making sure it...

Did I say tomorrow?
I totally meant Tuesday. Anyway, here is Chapter 9: Smith, and here is Chapter 9: Matthias. The only two entries in Chapter 9! So that’s exciting, I guess, on to Chapter 10, which should be the last chapter.
Yeah, the absolutely last one.
Like Oktober will be done after it.

Vroom, vroom.
So I passed my driver’s license test. Finally. I really slacked on that one. But hey! I have my license now! And tomorrow, I’m going to pick up my Dad’s old Saab. It’s a 900SE convertible, and we took it to the shop, well… yesterday, to assess the damage on it.
See, the Saab was my learning car, and I did not treat the poor thing well. I shattered a headlamp, wrecked...

Chapter 8: Smith
Author’s Note: Look at that, two updates in like, under an hour or something. Unprecedented. Chapter 8 is the third to last chapter, however Chapter 9 will consist of only two entries, and Chapter 10 will consist of only two aswell. Each character has one entry left before the end, however.

Regarding the Disappearance of my Website
VAKinc.com has disappeared into the aether of the net. Technically difficulties is about the best way that I can describe the issue. My host site is transitioning to a new system and it would seem that until they finish that I will be unable to renew my hosting subscription. Which is infuriating to say the least. As it is currently, I can’t even access my control panel.
So, to show that I...

Chapter 8: Natasha
The End of the World
The beasts had scored the Earth. The wound plunged deep into the skin of the world, it cut to the bone. The molten core of our planet was exposed, yet it did not bleed, the world is no living thing. Cut it and it does not gush. No, the tragedy here was not the death of the Earth, but the death of the Earth’s creatures. The world was ending, and that process could no...

Oktoberism: On Realism →
Fallacy of straw man, slippery slope, and ad hominem, not to mention he seems to have misinterpreted my attack on the perceived literary merit of “realism” as an attack on the honorable men and women of the United States armed forces.

Wow, what a legitimate argument. In fact, maybe we should just screw nonfiction literature and media in general. All news casts should...

On Realism
Let me take a moment of your time to discuss the blight on our culture that is slowly sapping away and life and vibrance from our literature like some vile, cancerous tumor. The loathsome and ever-popular concept of “realism.”
There is a film, Act of Valor, slated to be release at some time in the near future, that champions the fact that their characters are portrayed by active-duty...

thespookiesattack asked: Hey there! I just wanted to pop in and ask if you were still working on projekt oktober or if you'd abandoned it, I finally got up to date but I see you haven't updated it in a few months~ Either way, it has been an utterly amazing read, I can't believe it was your first attempt at a novel! I absolutely loved the presentation and the story itself, it sort of reminded me of House of...
