Hi! We just posted an update on the Kickstarter page itself, which you can find here! I hope it answers all of your questions ^^ https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/greykinpress/in-the-neck-of-the-woods-a-camping-themed-horror-anthology

Hi, I am a young writer and have started writing a story that I hope becomes a book. I just wanted to ask if you have any tips for writing stories and books?

One thing I can say is write for yourself. Writing for others/market is a big cause of burnout. I mean what’s the fun in writing something that isn’t fun for you? I’ve had to literally force myself to write something before and it isn’t worth it.

Second, whether you’re a plotter, panster, or planster, I feel like it’s always good to have at least some plot notes written down to refer to. It’s very easy to get lost in what you’re writing and if you go too deep, it’s hard to find your way back to the path.

Third, don’t compare yourself to other writers. Everyone is on their own path, have their own ideas and methods, and work and their own pace. Find what works for you and stick to it.

Also, don’t push yourself. If something isn’t working, it’s okay to delete it and start again. It’s okay to rewrite a scene or chapter 15 times. However, a lot of people say not to stress too much about your first draft. Vomit words if you have to. That’s what editing is for. Get your story down first before you start obsessing over the way things are worded 😅

I hope this was helpful!

Alucard Aleksei Reiner

Learn a little about Alucard, one of The Numen Chronicles' main characters!

Grab yourself a copy of the dark fantasy gay romance book through Amazon or several other platforms, with shipping to any country! (Head to my website HERE for more information!)

Alucard (Aleksei) was born into the Diabolus, a cult of witches, humans and demons who worship Lucifer as their god. Alucard's mother, Charlotte Reiner, was a Meridian, a very powerful witch in possession of Numen ethos. His creation was solely for the purpose of freeing Lucifer from his prison, but Damien intervened, condemning Lucifer to remain locked away forever, and Alucard to a life of depravity.

Damien grew tired of Alucard, though, and after wandering Aegisguard for many years, Alucard eventually found himself a family. However, they were shortly taken from him by the Diabolus. Devastated and enraged, he sought revenge, and Janus, the God of Beginnings, unlocked a hidden power within him, turning him into Aegisguard's first vampire at twenty-four. However, Janus had a nemesis, who created Ada, Werewolf Queen. For their amusement, the two gods pit Alucard and Ada against one another, unleashing years of battle and conflict between their two species'.

Years later, Alucard killed Janus and withdrew from the gods' stage. He focused more on the 'Nosferatu', his globally-known organisation. He strived to make the world a safe place for his people and started by placing covens all over Aegisguard. He soon returned to his homeland, Dor-Sanguis, and dedicated his time to ridding the land of werewolves, creating a treaty with the humans, and ensuring his vampires were safe.

And then he met Zalith.

Check out this amazing comic created by fellow queer creators! Their Kickstarter has just over 2 days left, so if you want to support even more queer creators and snag and awesome grimdark comic, head to their Kickstarter page!

Found in the Forgotten: Issue #1

A Sapphic/LGBT+ Grimdark Fantasy Comic Written by Queer Creators. Featuring Romance, Horror, & More!

"Waking up with zero memory of who she once was, Theory finds herself suddenly thrown into a world where monsters lurk at every corner, and she might just be one of them. The Kingdom of Hollowcourt follows one simple rule: magic is no longer allowed. After the lands were ravaged by a war between arcane practitioners, survivors rebuilt society, practicing mundane science, technology, and invention. Though their feats are by no means mundane. Unfortunately, Theory has already broken this rule by simply existing. Gifted with innate magic of unknown origins, she must now navigate determining her identity while remaining under the nose of the ever-watchful eyes of The System and learning who she can trust amongst a sea of snakes."

Disclaimer: Found in the Forgotten is an 18+ comic. It will feature nudity, NSFW scenes, and mature themes!

Meet the Main Character + Her Love Interests:

Theory is a woman lost to this new and unraveling world. Her main goal is to find out who she was before this and why she has powers that have long since been both outlawed and eradicated by the land.

Nemmet is a woman of action rather than words. Naturally intimidating, both due to her sheer size and her steely gaze, Nemmet warns away anyone who might try to get close to her, and for good reason. The weight of responsibility and power falls heavy on her shoulders. But can Theory manage to see Nemmet for who she truly is beyond the walls she's built?

Qhysheifa is a woman who knows how to play the courtly game, and she plays it very well. She has a number of people indebted to her throughout the kingdom. She always tries to look her best to keep up appearances, but she's not above getting down and dirty if the situation calls for it. Unlike Nemmet, Sheifa is all too willing to lend a helping hand, but will it be for selfish reasons?
