Tunnel Rat Chapter 398

The path back was quicker for Hecate, able to take long strides that brought her again to the crossroads of the ancient dwarven city. She was at Milo's side after that, hoping that she was in time ...

TR 388,389 and BoG 479,480 Available

Now that the new single-story tiers are up, I'm going to do things a little differently for this Tier. At the start of the week I'll move two chapters of each story to the Butcher of Sedgewick Tier...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 489

I am deserted by everyone but my faithful dog, Auggie. He got my attention the first hour and then there was nothing to do but write another chapter.

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 488

Any smart mercenary wants to observe the battlefield before a battle starts. Marceline was no exception. 'Meet the Butcher at the corral at midnight.' was not something most people would f...

Time for a little world-building. Pun intended.

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 487

Tunnel Rat Chapter 396

Hecate had barely sat down by Milo, cloaked and hidden, when a large female ratkin came to check on him. She looked around, then scowled and spoke softly.

"I know that you're here. Quit snea...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 486

Vernon woke up with the dawn, a mechanical rooster call playing loudly in the speakers placed in each bedroom. Typically, he ignored it by putting a pillow over his head, but today, he managed to g...

New Patreon Tiers

I've been working on the Patreon Tiers the last couple of days and have added two new tiers that cost 5.00 each for 20 chapters ahead. Many people indicated they liked that and were only reading on...

Tunnel Rat Chapter 395

In a dark, abandoned city, a brave lizard was carrying out an important mission. Georgie roamed the ancient city until he found a spot where seven roads came together at a circular courtyard. Flick...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 485

"Having fun yet, Mr. Vernon? We can get closer to the big one if you want a better look, or should we get a little further away from it? Looks like she's about to breathe out that acidic cloud agai...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 484

Ben and Rolly listened as Ozzy and Suzette explained the problems they faced in getting Vernon ready for Billy's plan and to get him out of town.
The Butcher ticked off the challenges on his fin...

Tunnel Rat Chapter 394

There was no signal to begin the battle, and no orders were given. As the Chimara moved from the throne room into the large courtyard and they got a better look at the monster, every gun began to f...

Tunnel Rat Chapter 393

Preparations began in earnest for hunting the Chimera. While he had a wealth of information about the city, little more could be gained from talking to Carver, who had purposefully avoided the crea...

Tunnel Rat Chapter 392

The statue simply stood where it was, unmoving and not speaking further. Milo examined it carefully, sure this was the statue he'd seen standing in the water fountain. He stepped closer to it and s...

Tunnel Rat Chapter 391

With the incentives of curiosity, frustration, and aged whiskey, it did not take long for the Deep Rock Engineers to construct a bridge across the chasm. Bridging small fissures and leveling out th...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 483

Layla looked at Diego and said deferentially, "As loyal nobles who take their responsibilities to the Empire seriously, of course, we are open to considering requests from His Imperial Highness." B...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 482

Still not kicking this flu, but sleeping now. Too much, about 18 hours a day. But I managed to write for three hours. Might be some oddities in here, I'm a little loopy.
=======================...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 481

Smythe sat at the small wooden table, his following the interesting whorls of the wood and how the woodcarver had delicately added their own touches to create a lovely duet. Each of the chairs and ...

Tunnel Rat Chapter 390

Sort of sick, sort of needing very badly to write. I started this chapter and wrote for 5 hours. Felt good. Might be a bit rough.
========================
"Fire in the Hole!"

Tunnel Rat Volume 2 is out!

If you can spare a moment, a review/rating on Amazon would be greatly appreciated. And if you have KU, every page you flip through with a re-read sends me a sliver of copper. But it adds up.

...

Tunnel Rat Chapter 389

Somewhat better. Fought a high fever all night, then slept most of the day and could eat again. Feeling good enough to write. Hopefully, that's the end of this.
=================================...

Lacking Energy, in so many ways. Back soon as the lights come back on

Small delay in uploading. I have a Milo chapter almost ready to go and two more plotted, and a few Butcher yards thought out. Lights have been out for two days, and ETA is 1:30 am (which they said ...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 480

Sick with the flu for two days, and tomorrow isn't looking good. Getting a little writing done. Sometimes it's a choice of being miserable in bed or miserable at the computer. I'm not going to post...

Butcher of Gadobhra Chapter 479

Rolly had never had a time sense that lined up with normal hours. That had only gotten worse when he became a Shepherd in Genesis. Pregnant animals didn't give birth on a schedule and he would answ...

Stubbing on Royal Road

I wanted to put out a reminder about Tunnel Rat Volume 2 coming out on the 19th from Amazon and Audible: This means the chapters in the second volume will be coming down from Royal Road a few days ...

Tunnel Rat 388

Milo had been tired and injured when he'd first seen the eyes. He didn't know what they were, but he knew they were more than magical items or parts of a corrupted copperhead.
The snake had been...
