Wandering Fortunes Chapter 36: A Top Team Escape

The penultimate chapter! While Top flees with the princess, Ropak distracts King Eintandus from following. Even if he can avoid being turned to dust from Eintandus’ huge weapons, he and Alden still gotta get out of the castle–and past a hoard of guards along the way!

By the way… what’s that new section in the top menu ribbon? Be careful around there… you might get lost…

Yeah so the website I’ve been putting my romance/erotica on kinda sucks now so I copied it all over to here. I’m not gonna post about updates here but if you’re interested or happen to like it you can check out my Twitter for updates. It’s almost all SFW and non-lewd or whatnot, there’s only one story that veers into NSFW territory but it’s on the edge.

Now up, Chapter 35: Flight of the Guardian

Chapter 35 of Wandering Fortunes is up. We’re in the final stretch–Top is fleeing the Thraundlus Kingdom castle, escorting Princess Serani out (inside themself). There are still plenty of soldiers fighting throughout the castle, though, so Top will have to be quick on their feet and quick in the head to get through! They’ll have to be even faster than Top’s Pizza’s promise of a pizza to you in 30 minutes or less!

NEW! Wandering Fortunes Chapter 34: Courage Now or Forever No Peace

Chapter 34 of Wandering Fortunes is here! Alden barges into the Thraundlus Kingdom throne room with intention to stop the sham wedding, but unfortunately the king has a lot of guards. Alden just has one Guardian. He’ll have to think fast to deal with the king, but help from friends is always good to have.

It’s hard to tell if what Top does is actually help sometimes, but it usually is.

Wandering Fortunes Chapter 30: A Friendly Deed

Here we are, the beginning of the climax. Alden fell in love with Princess Serani, but now she’s been captured by an enemy kingdom. He joins the Salenth Kingdom’s military to try and save her, with Top taking up distraction duty. But Alden will find more than the princess here. He’ll have to juggle his goals until he figures out a way to make up for things.

New! Wandering Fortunes chapter 27: Fools and Love

Chapter 27 is now up! Alden continues to bemoan his falling in love with an unattainable princess, but hope springs eternal when he learns she’s hosting a party soon and Top’s Pizza is doing some catering! He now has an in to meet the princess. Will he woo, or will he choke?

I’m charging into the final main edits for Wandering Fortunes–all I have is the final chapter. There’s more editing to do after that but that’ll leave me ready to post the rest of this story over the next year. I have a lot of work and a lot of projects, so I’m always busy.

And hey, if you want to help ensure I actually have the time to work on all these things, check out my Patreon! It’s a service where you can give a certain amount of money each month (like $1 or $3) and maybe get stuff from it. I’m gonna be posting chapter 28 for patrons later today, and I give weekly updates on what I’m doing, too. I also plan, if I reach a hundred patrons on there, to make Cloudy Cuckoo Cosmail a regular thing. If you can’t or don’t want to give monthly, I also have a Ko-fi where you can give a one-time donation of $3. Every bit helps!

New Wandering Fortunes Chapter 22: The Pearl Kingdom

~ Duth Olec ~ Leave a comment

About a year and a half ago our protagonist friends arrived at New Zhopolis, and discovered a seedy hive of wretched folk out for no one but themselves. (A few months later they found some good folk though.) Now we’re now and they’ve arrived at a new kingdom on a new planet. What will they find at their new home? It’s as big as New Zhopolis, but warmer, shinier, more colorful–but is it nicer? Join them as they explore their new home in Chapter 22: The Pearl Kingdom.

If you want to read the next chapter in a hurry, they go up a month early on my Patreon, which also has weekly updates of what I’m currently working on and other behind-the-scenes odds and ends for people who give monthly pledges. You can also give a single donation at my Ko-fi and get the next chapter early.

Now up, Darmenzi Chapter 17: Final Challenge

~ Duth Olec ~ Leave a comment

The not-quite-tournament is under way with chapter 17 of Darmenzi! Numer faces his fears, Pocerni shows his experience, Cherry gets some punches in, and Sawn gets a bad deal. Will Conrad finally get his day and destroy his nuisances? Who will take the final orb? The answer may surprise you!

We’re in August now, and I’m expecting this month to be called back to the day job. When this happens my social media presence will probably have to die until I can get out again, probably in February. By then Darmenzi will be finished and a new story will begin. I’ll keep everyone posted.

Darmenzi Chapter 16: Ending Maneuvers

Chapter 16: Ending Maneuvers

We’re in the final quarter of Darmenzi now! To start it off, we check in on someone we haven’t seen for a bit, then dive into a fantastic setting that gets broken into by another old “friend”. I’d have to say I particularly like this chapter, as we get to see some things we haven’t had a chance to examine too closely before, and the character interaction is amazing. When I get silly, I hold no punches from oversized novelty punching gloves.

On a side note, Slubes ebook is still free until… Wait, hold on… Smashwords is doing a sale this month. Okay! It’s free until the end of July, whee!

In other news, I’ve gotten work started on editing the third novel, Wandering Fortunes. I’m primarily combing through it right now for what major things I need to edit, but next week I’ll get underway on that. More on that near the end of the year!
