Hello dear readers. It's been a while. I hope you all are doing well.
I'm doing quite well as well and I'm here to discuss on the future of my projects and also update on my situation since many of you were concerned regarding my health.
So let me start by thanking you all for being worried for my sake and thank you so so so much for your kind words and well wishes.
And yeah I know I missed a chance on being isekai-ed by lol haha. Better luck next time-actually. No, just no. I'm not gonna even gonna tempt Murphy.
So I'm well, recovery is slow and several complications come up each time I take a step forward to push me by three backwards but I've been doing well. I can walk now, (with the help of crutches granted, but I can move around on my own). My girl and my family has been very helpful and kind to me and have helped me balance my mental state a lot. I still have nightmares and wake up in cold sweat and even after these many days.
Sometimes I just wish I had died back there on the cold asphalt road and that my suffering would have died short with me but those thoughts go away as soon as I look at my family and myself in the mirror and remember just how not ready I am to die yet.
There are things I wanna do, animes I wanna watch, stories I wanna read, games I wanna play, friends I wanna make, family I wanna have and so I coach myself out of that state of mind and it's not easy. It's hard...
But I'll be well haha.
My back hurts a lot (insert the 'My back' meme lol)
That's probably due to the torn muscles and my strained spine.(I'm so lucky that I haven't been paralyzed considering how fragile spine is against physical trauma) But doctor said it's nothing to worry about so I'm just living well and resting well now.
I've paid most of my debts by selling some assets I had in my name but there's still a good chunk left to pay off. And I took your advice to consult a lawyer and see if I can get the firm I was working for to pay a part of my medical bill but sadly it didn't go anywhere. India doesn't have the same laws in place to protect the rights of working class people as the States or other first world countries have and so working class people get bent over and fucked each day. Just like me.
But that's alright. I have a plan but that all depends on my recovery which I pray goes well and without any serious complications.
So, with the chatter out of the way let's talk about my projects.
Now like I said, I wasn't satisfied with how 'I Am Peter Parker' was shaping up to be, the inconsistency with the character, the morality shift etc, etc so I decided to rewrite but I didn't have the same flare as I did before so I was considering just giving up writing and just enjoy the life as a reader but as it turns out, there aren't a lot of good stories on Webnovel (heck even fanfiction. Net and other sides) and the more I read the more pissed of I became.
With lack of good media (in any form) and shit products bloating the internet I realise it's just a bad, bad time. Plus with the sad state of the world rn, Im need need if something to distract me but nothing scratched that itch of mine. So... I was like fuck it.
Fine, I'll do it myself. (Meme check)
So I've started working on two projects (even though I should be resting) and I'm really happy to say, that the flare hasn't gone anywhere. Apparently, I just needed a change of pace, and it's working. So here are the two projects I'm working on.
1. Solo Leveling : Infinite Path (SL x Multiverse)
2. I Am Bruce Wayne (DC x multi? Maybe.)
I've written the prologue for both projects but I won't be releasing them now. I'm planning on writing at least 10-30+ chapter before I start uploading them. I've also made book covers because I was excited. So let me know your thoughts on it and if you have any questions, do ask and I'll try to answer them to the best of my abilities.
Solo Leveling has your typical transmigration prologue where a ordinary but not-so-ordinary individual gets killed and is transmigrated into the body of Sung Jin-Woo. My Sung Jin-Woo is going to be quite different than the OG one but I promise you, he's going brandish the same level of badassery that's associated with the Shadow Monarch.
Batman one is a bit different, I've taken inspiration from Christopher Nolan and Matt Reeves movies and a lot of comic series and I've come up with something I hope you'll find interesting. So, when Bruce gets roughed up by Carmine Falcone's thugs he hits his head and he experiences a moment of strange euphoria as he receives parts of memories of an unnamed bud from our universe. Yup, that's the premise and I know it's rough but I'll have time to flesh it out considering I plan of going underground to work on my projects.
No, I won't be following DCEU since let's be honest, it's fucked and there's no saving it. But I also won't be strictly following Nolan or Reeves instead I'll Integrate a lot of comic plots plus the games and this will be the tale of the Cape Crusader who's not willing to take the chance with nutcases that are beyond saving.
I will rewrite I Am Peter Parker and will conclude that story since I'm so vested in what I've created that I want to see it be laid to rest in a satisfying manner but I won't be working on it just yet. I'm sorry if that disappoints you all... I'm sorry but I can't work on it without giving you subpar, fodder stories.
So, if you leave I understand.
But for those who sticking around my weirdass I have an additional announcement for you.
I'm planning on (maybe) setting up patreøn or Ko-fi... maybe both. I know jackshit about it except that it has tiers lol. So, for now I have 2 tiers in mind.
1 dollar = 10 chapters in advance
5 dollar = 30 chapters in advance, plus various perks (I need help with suggestions on how to set it)
Now it's not mandatory for you to support me, it's free media and I plan to entertain you all regardless, the patreøn might not even happen and I'll just end up chapter dumping everything on Webnovel who knows.
But I'm in dire need of money and I'm desparate but I'm not willing wanna beg for it and I don't want you (or me) to feel like I am robbing you of your hard earned money.
So as desparate as I am if I don't find a financial alternative, I plan to offer good stories and entertainment in exchange for your time and support, if you are willing to help me shoulder some of my burden, that is.
If you do so, then I'll forever be grateful to you and if not, I still love you all regardless haha. We all have our circumstances.
Also, my laptop was trashed in the accident, so I need to buy a new one, so the patreøn would also help me gather funds for that since typing from the phone is kinda... rough. (If you have any suggestions which one would be the best, let me know.)
Anyways, that's the plan in my head rn. It might change or not, everything depends on how my life take turns in future but it I live and I hope I do... I wanna entertain you regardless of anything else. It something that makes me happy.
Anyways, I'll stop with the peachy stuff and take my leave haha.
I'll see you legends next time.
I love you all, thank you so much.
