A little bit behind on my week 2 update. Last week was intense with first week back to work after the two-week break but managed to get a good chunk done on Saturday (10k+)! Expecting this week to be a little slower but progress is progress #amwriting #writingcommunity #CampRevPit #CRPNightcrawlers

I'm Working on Chapter 7 (and maybe 8) tonight. These are mostly already written -- from my partial draft last October -- just need to tweak it slightly to fit in with the current draft.

However, as the story has changed over the last 4 renditions, his role has also changed and he is now the reason why millions across the globe have died and the reason why Arauthia stands and works as it does. The apocalpse started because this guy wanted free reign to be his most villainous self.

But at the heart of it all is the puppeter, the "Vamprie Master" and the "middle son" in the "family" of Death-Gods; Martius. Originally he was going to just be a vampire master in the "real world" who was a serial killer (fun right?!)

#CRPNightcrawlers #CampRevPit The theme of the monsters in my MS is vampiric and more specifically things that "feed" off of humanity. Which goes from your average typical vampire, to the Starved Ones and the death-gods. But it also includes the system that these monsters thrive in. 1/2 🧵

My MC's greatest fear is the monster that erased her gods from existence and has hunted her kind into extinction. But to her... he's the SOB that made her an orphan. 🥺
