Outside the door, her female colleagues were swooning over his chiseled abs. Just a thin partition away, he locked his arm around her willowy waist, seized her delicate hand, and guided it to rest on his taut abdomen, his voice dripping with a sultry allure, “Thought you could slip away? It's far too late for that.”

"Shall I tell you a little secret? But I have to warn you, you won't like it." No one likes spoilers, therefore, I present this to you. "Is it a book filled with spoilers or a book specifically about spoilers?" Read between the lines, that is what you do when you are eager to find out. To figure out a secret, to interpret and keep note of what there is to come. "It is kind of like that, but I would rather refer to it as a compilation or a series." "Or an outline, a note, reminder for what'll end up happening, whatever sounds right to you." A story that has only one plot, universe, and meaning is not how you would describe this one. Spoiler though, you'll never be satisfied. /Extra/ "One more thing... None of this is real. Unless you know what exactly is going on."

I'm not sure exactly where this story will go, but if you want a story that isn't one of those harem, power fantasy type stories, then you've come to the right place. The only hope I have is to bring a story to life; not just about fireballs and whatnot, but also about the life, scenery, and people of a fantasy world. Idk if that sounds cliche, but that's the general idea I have for this story. I'll modify that statement to better explain this whole shebang as we move along. I'll also be developing the world, too; it'd be pretty awesome to have something on the side, like a bestiary type list of creatures and plants and materials, people, cultures, and whatnot--something along the lines of a fictional 'The Travels' by Marco Polo. My minimum word count per chapter is around 1,200 words. Of course, word count will vary between chapters, but 1,200 is just the minimum I've created for myself. That number will probably grow as my writing skills develop and I find my 'writing voice'. This is a complete passion project I've started again in the midst of a very busy time of my life; I can't promise any scheduling, but nonetheless, I think it'll be a fun ride for all of us, if a bit bumpy lol. Thank you for taking the time to check out my book! I hope you enjoy it :)
