You know, it’s jarring to see your book on Goodreads.

Anyway go review it on Goodreads

You ever have multiple ideas for stories but you know you should be focusing on one in particular since you jut put out a book about its setting but you just figured out how to smoothly continue the other one?

Thats me right now. Please help.

Question for all of you. If you’ve done it in the past, what’s your favorite part of building a magic system?

To go along with my book release, I and a friend put together this graphic to explain the main power system of Soul Burst, the Soul. Thanks again @sudmensch.bsky.social !

Welp

Got the test copy and while it’s bigger than I was expecting, it’s good.

I’ll be posting the link soon, but it’s almost here and I am so excited.

Text heavy, but if you're a diehard Star Trek fan it's HILARIOUS! I look around for this thing every few years, and keep thinking I should FRAME it 😂

tldr: Aliens don't understand that the movie "Back to the Future" is a comedy because Doc Brown is how ALL Starfleet Engineers behave
Post by prokopetz Random Headcanon: That Federation vessels in Star Trek seem to experience bizarre malfunctions with such overwhelming frequency isn't just an artifact of the television serial format. Rather, it's because the Federation as a culture are a bunch of deranged hyper-neophiles, tooling around in ships packed full of beyond-cutting-edge tech they don't really understand. Endlessly frustrating if you have to fight them, because they can pull an effectively unlimited number of bullshit space-magic countermeasures out of their arses - but they're as likely as not to give themselves a lethal five-dimensional wedgie in the process. All those rampant holograms and warp core malfunctions and accidentally-traveling-back-in-time incidents? That doesn't actually happen to anyone else; it's literally just Federation vessels that go off the rails like that. And they do so on a fairly regular basis. Post by writebastard So to everyone else in the galaxy, all humans are basically Doc Brown. Post by prokopetz Aliens who have seen the Back to the Future movies literally don't realise that Doc Brown is meant to be funny. They're just like "yes, that is exactly what all human scientists are like in my experience". Post by roachpatrol THE ONLY REASON SCOTTY IS CHIEF ENGINEER INSTEAD OF SOMEONE FROM A SPECIES WITH A HIGHER TECHNOLOGICAL APTITUDE IS BECAUSE EVERYONE FROM THOSE SPECIES TOOK ONE LOOK AT THE ENTERPRISE'S ENGINE ROOM AND RAN AWAY SCREAMING Post by roachpatrol vulcan science academy: why do you need another warp core humans: we're going to plug two of them together and see if we go twice as fast vsa: last time we gave you a warp core you threw it into a sun to see if the sun would go twice as fast humans: hahaha yeah humans: it did tho vsa: IT EXPLODED humans: it exploded twice as fast Post by froborr I love this. Especially because of how well it plays with my headcanon that the Federation does so much better against the Borg than anyone else because beating the Borg with military tactics is nigh-impossible, but beating them with wacky superscience shenanigans works as long as they're unique wacky superscience shenanigans. Post by megabeeprime Yeah, I love this. Post by underscorex Reminds me of the thing I wrote a while back about Humans in high fantasy realms - they're basically Team Fuck It Hold My Beer I Got This. Impulsive, passionate to a fault, the social structures they build to try and regulate this hotheadedness ironically creates even greater levels of sheer bull-headedness. Even their "cooler" heads take action in months or weeks. All their great heroes of the past were impossibly rash by galactic standards. Humans Just Go With It, which is their great flaw but also their greatest strength. Post by roachpatrol klingons: okay we don't get it vulcan science academy: get what klingons: you vulcans are a bunch of stuffy prisses but you're also tougher, stronger, and smarter than humans in every single way klingons: why do you let them run your federation vulcan science academy: look vulcan science academy: this is a species where if you give them two warp cores they don't do experiments on one and save the other for if the first one blows up vulcan science academy: this is a species where if you give them two warp cores, they will ask for a third one, immediately plug all three into each other, punch a hole into an alternate universe where humans subscribe to an even more destructive ideological system, fight everyone in it because they're offended by that, steal their warp cores, plug those together, punch their way back here, then try to turn a nearby sun into a torus because that was what their initial scientific experiment was for and they didn't want to waste a trip. vulcan science academy: they did that last week. we have the write-… Post by dragon-in-a-fez you know what the best evidence for this is? Deep Space 9 almost never broke down. minor malfunctions that irritated O'Brien to hell and back, sure, but almost none of the truly weird shit that befell Voyager and all the starships Enterprise. what was the weirdest malfunction DS9 ever had? the senior staff getting trapped as holosuite characters in Our Man Bashir, and that was because a human decided to just dump the transporter buffer into the station's core memory and hope everything would work out somehow, which is a bit like swapping your computer's hard drive out for a memory card from a PlayStation 2 and expecting to be able to play a game of Spyro the Dragon with your keyboard and mouse. Post by dragon-in-a-fez you know what, I'm not done with this post. let's talk about the Pegasus. the USS Fucking Pegasus, testbed for the first Starfleet cloaking device. here we have a handful of humans working in secret to develop a cloaking device in violation of a treaty with the Romulans. they're playing catchup trying to develop a technology other species have had for a century, and what do they do? do they decide to duplicate a Romulan cloaking device precisely, just see if they can match what other species have? nope. they decide, hey, while we're at it, while we're building our very first one of these things, just to find out if this is possible, let's see if we can make this thing phase us out of normal space so we can fly through planets while we're invisible. "but why" said the one Vulcan in the room. "because that would fucking rule" said the humans, high-fiving each other and slamming cans of 24th-century Red Bull. there must be like twenty different counselling groups for non-human engineering students at Starfleet Academy, and every week in every single one of them someone walks in and starts up with a story like "our assignment was to repair a phaser emitter and my one human classmate built a chronometric- flux toaster that toasts bre…

Ok so here’s a weird dream I had.

I had a power washing battle with Augustus from The Perfect Run and he finished it with the orbital laser.

I think I need to stop playing Powerwash Simulator and listening to Audiobooks at the same time. #booksky #book

I found another good quote:

“So… you’re in?” Oliver asked.
“After you tell me everything you know so we can come up with an actual plan besides back alley oral surgery,” Lan nodded.

Here’s my second favorite line:

“I don’t think you’re that impulsive…” the wolf went on. “I have too high of an opinion of you at this point for that.”
“Lady, we’ve had three conversations so far and two of them involved me trying to maim you.”

Ok have my favorite out of context line:

“Then don’t stop us and let us stew in our failure?”
“You assaulted the Alpha and shot me in the chest!”
“You got better.”
“AAAAAAGH!”

Ok have another:

“Shut. Up.” the mouse snarled, still glaring. “You think arson is ok, stringbean?”
“About as ok as breaking someone's arms and legs and locking them in your broom closet…” Oliver said, jumping back into the conversation.

So have a raccoon instead

Here’s another out of context line from #SoulBurst, and it’s one of my favorites:

“That… doesn’t sound healthy,” the raccoon pointed out.
“Is de-limbing him any better?”

Here have another line:

“Sean,” Lan cut him off, crossing her arms. “You’ve been looking at him like you expect him to rip your arms off any second since you brought him in.”

“A better explanation would have been nice—” Oliver started, before being cut off.
“Its name is THE DEATHBLOOM.” Lan reiterated, slamming her fist into the table they were sharing. “I felt the danger was implied!”

Here have more out of context lines

“I was in a cage for I don’t even know how long and you think I have—”
Sean watched as the raccoon that helped Oliver out of that predicament by pulling a long sleeve shirt out of his stomach, offering it to the former prisoner.
“You look like a medium.”
