We Interrupt Your Viewing for an Announcement

Hi, everyone. I know I don't usually post on Mondays, but too bad. Deal with it.

Today, I will begin 'Last Stand', the final two chapters of the Heroicits adventures. That may not sound like much, but it really is. After these two chapters, the Heroicits adventures will be officially finished after three grand years of chapters, threads, and Rayon being cool.

Far Fetched and Beyond was the first series out of three. Honestly, I never planned for that series to last more than one book. I never expected those first four chapters to become a book. I never expected my writer's block over a simple school assignment to turn into successful free write.

It did.

Far Fetched and Beyond didn't just spiral into a enormously successful series. It allowed me to meet people, including one very special person I wouldn't have met otherwise. It did this when I set up a thread (several, in fact) advertising the series.

The first thread was called 'Story I'm working on'. I changed the name the following year to 'Far Fetched and Beyond'. I have records of the second 'Far Fetched and Beyond' thread saved in a notepad document on my computer. Third and fourth Far Fetched and Beyond threads were started on different sites. Eventually, they all had to be ended for various reasons. However, I did back them up on my computer.

One screenshot remains of the final Far Fetched and Beyond thread:


After all of those threads vanished over time, this blog was born, christened 'Far Fetched and Beyond' in honor of the others.

Of course, I'm not about to forget the purpose of these threads- the chapters.

My work got around. This stuff was good. It soon brought me a small ring of friends, all drawn together by the Heroicits chapters. In the golden era of the threads and chapters, I was writing chapters like mad and advertising them on the Far Fetched and Beyond threads. People would ask to read them, then beg for more.

Eventually, the activity did lessen. People got busier, including myself, and I removed myself from activity on the sites where the threads had been. I still sent chapters out occasionally, but not nearly as often as I had before. I was now writing Heroicits for only one person, myself.

Heroicits was not alone. While their series was blooming, so was the other I worked on- the Magical Kingdom series. I had to increase the amount of Magical Kingdom chapters to better rival Heroicits. At the end of 2011, both series spat out 500-page books. Between those, three NaNoWriMo novels, another novella, graphic novels, and a play, I knew I couldn't keep it up. This was proven to me in 2012.

Ever since January 2012, I have been jugging my freshman year of high school (I still have no idea what I'm doing), Seminary, two huge series that both demand attention, a stubborn novel that took far too long to complete, NaNoWriMo, two sessions of Camp NaNoWriMo, girl's camp, a second play, graphic novels, and much more. It's exhausting.

Between all this, and the fact that the Far Fetched and Beyond threads are dormant and no one reads the chapters any more, I have decided to end the series. So, ladies, gentlemen, aliens, robots, and other intelligent life forms... I present to you Last Stand.


Oh crap, I just remembered that's a spoiler.

-LE, the official Writer of the Heroicits Series

EDIT:

I am looking for so many ways to avoid starting these two chapters. Ugh.

Ooh, kitty!


EDIT 2:


It has begun.

EDIT 3:

It is now eight thirty at night, and the first half of Last Stand has reached 8 pages, double spacing. This is very good progress.

...

I'm a little less scared now. I think.

EDIT 4 (8/21):

I finished part one. Now I'm staring at part two. I know exactly what to do next and where this is going. I just don't want to write it.

I think I'll go watch Doctor Who.

EDIT 5 (8/23):

Okay. Sorry about my utterly forgetting to update any graphic novel pages. I was busy, well, killing people off, saving the planet, plotting downfalls, bla bla bla.

Last Stand has been finished, and I'm not telling you if Rayon lives or dies. Sorry.

*deeeeeeeeeeeeeeerp*

Annnd We're Back!

"Sir, you were found near the site at the time of the event. Mind offering an explanation as to why there is a huge crater in the middle of the suburbs?"


"Yes, I know what happened. My friend LE and I were there. She has this temper, you see. Well, she had the day off, so we were tromping around in the woods. We wanted to see if there were any pears on the tree yet."


"All of the sudden, LE winced and looked down. We both saw a large bumblebee sitting on the ground next to her sandal. It had stung her foot."



"Remember how I said she has a temper? Well, the literal stinging pain must've set her off, because...."




"And that's why there's a big crater."


"Can I leave now?"

"Get out."

Hey everyone, Far Fetched and Beyond is back from it's hiatus! You will see the next graphic novel page this coming Tuesday. Thanks for stopping by!

Slurpee of the Gods

Come August, things will be very busy story-wise. I will be starting and finishing my tenth novel, 'A Random Adventure 2', for Camp NaNoWriMo.


To reward myself, I am planning on buying Owl City's new album, which comes out then. 

Later that month, I will be finishing up the one and only Heroicits series. For good. To help cushion the blow, I'll be walking down to the local CitGo to buy a slurpee and some sort of snack. 

There's just one problem. I'm almost broke after a wild trip to Hershey amusement park. So... I have to work so I can reward myself for working on something else.

......

Now I'm sitting in my computer chair, nursing an aching wrist and hurting back. The lawnmower took its toll on the final hill. If I so much as get up, my back aches with a piercing pain. My wrist threatens to render me unable to type, too.


That is all.
