Hey its the second page! This is where I'll put all my writing thingies! (If I was a better coder I would've made this nicer by now) I'm *technically* a published author and I'm currently working on the first book in a four-part series! The struggle is real. I'll post a couple of the chapters here when I can (in like 20 min probably) and maybe a few things I've been meaning to start and/or post!
Context:
God I hate this part
So the book series takes place in this world called Xilliv where there are four major continents where each books takes place. Utalia, Eleanor, Straton, and Ather. The first book, Crossfire, takes place in Utalia. The second book takes place in Eleanor. The third book takes place in Straton. And the fourth book takes place in Ather. Nothing's really different besides the different continents, it's just kinda important to know. All the lore exists in my head in various parts. I promise I'm sane :)
how i feel being a writer and getting myself into this shit
Book #1: Crossfire
Crossfire is the very start of the timeline, causing the sort of domino effect for everything else in the series. I've been working on it the longest now, and it's the one with the most progress and most in depth in the world of Xilliv.
The (very basic) plot:So there's this guy called Callan who is trying to survive in Utalia under the rule of the tyrannical king of Valor, but after meeting strange new people along his way, he eventually gets roped into a rebellion planned to destroy the very foundations of the kingdom. But little does he know, his actions awakened a once dead god, causing him to get sought out by the god's following in a prophecy meant to revive their lord. But in order to achieve this along with the rebellion, he must have to decide whether to sacrifice his life and his own humanity for the betterment of all those to come.
A little about Crossfire: I began writing it when I was in 7th grade, so it has been about 4 years since I first started working on it. This is the second draft of Crossfire because OH MY GOD was my early writing absoulte shit. Though I want to publish Crossfire, it isn't my first work. I'm technically a published author because of two summer camps I did called Badgerdog and Great Books, where at the end of each camp, we submitted one of our best works to be included in an anthology. Crossfire is also the first part in a series I'm making, though it's the only one where I've made most of my progress in. My dad has been encouraging me to submit Crossfire to a publisher, but I want to have at least half of it done before I do.
Book #2
Book #2 takes place about 100 years after the events of Crossfire in Eleanor. I'm still trying to find a name for the book that isn't ass so right now it's just called Book #2. I do have a basic premise on what it's going to be about, though I haven't refined it.
The (very basic) plot: So there's this guy called Judith living in Eleanor who's just trying to get through the day. Eleanor's major city, Vexa Verta, is divided into sections, with the center of it having the most power and all the other sections having less priority. Recently, there has been numerous blackouts in many sections including Judith's, all increasing in severity. On a seemingly regular day, Judith attempts to go to work but is stopped by the police and placed on house arrest. Their boss has been hiding protesters within the buildng and they've just gotten found out. After a week of house arrest, Judith begins getting letters from a mysterious sender giving them strange instructions like searching through a hidden crawlspace in their apartment's laundry room and attatching a home made radar on top of the building. Soon they're told to find a way into the subway system of Eleanor, and when they do, the mysterious sender meets them. There, they guide them to an underground society intent on uncovering the corruption of Vexa Verta's center district. Plans to find a seemingly infinite power source along with detailed ways how to achieve it, they suddenly have to bear the weight of a decision not meant to fall on just one, unlucky person.
That's what I have right now. I've got a ton of other ideas I want to incorporate into it, but I haven't found the time to really write it with how busy I am with Crossfire rn. Maybe in the future I'll have time to do it, but who really knows
Book #3
Book #3 also doesn't have a name yippie yay yayy hooray (RAAAHHHHHGH) It takes place around the same time as Book #2 in Straton. And just like Book #2, I really only have a basic grasp on the plot and what it's gonna be about. I should really get started on the two hmmm....... yeah like that's ever gonna happen :p
The (very basic) plot: So it follows this guy named Osian who had run away from home with his friend Luke and escaped to the border of Straton and Eleanor and had been living along the towns near the border. But a while after they had run away, Luke suddenly goes missing, urging Osian to travel back to Straton in order to find him. Once he arrives, he's greeted by family members he hasn't seen in far too long who have more information about his friend's whereabouts. After a wild goose chase and more encounters with old family, he finally meets Luke again in his childhood home where he's....perfectly fine? Despite his usual laid back demeanor explaining everything is fine, once he's out of Osian's family's watchful gaze, he explains to him that this was all just a ploy to lead him back to their home to settle a feud between families. A fight breaks out not long after, driving Osian away from the manor and Luke once more. In a dingy old subway somewhere in Straton, he's forced to face his thoughts and the decision before him. Run away and return to the nomadic life he's lived for so long or face the storm head on and confront the things he's always ran from.
ok deadass I kinda dont know what i'm gonna do for this one. it's mostly vibes tbh
Book #4
guess what?? chicken butt no name for Book #4 woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This one is going to be the last book in the series and is set in Ather. This is the one that I have the least grasp on and the one I'm kind of most worried about because of it. But since it's planned to be the last book, I shouldn't be too concerned with it really.
The (very basic) plot: It would be focused around this biologist named Samantha (filler name tbh) who travels to an island of Ather to research the wildlife there. As she explores, the geography of the island seems to get stranger the deeper she goes, finding species that she never knew existed, that were once thought to be extinct, and some that seem too strange to live on this planet. Little does she know that the island is inhabited by people who don't take too kindly to outsiders, unintentionally making herself a target for the island residents and the deity they worship.
see how this is so much shorter than the others? take a wild guess why
