I could have built up the event in this chapter over an entire book, with groundwork pointing to it. I was tempted, honestly. But I'm gonna throw it at you as a twist instead, see how that works. There's too many other things happening this book to really build up to this Stephen King style anyway.


Edit: there was some formatting errors in the epub file. it's been reuploaded, and should hopefully be error free.

Early chapter!!!!

AniNovu

February and its 28 days are a pain in my ass. I have to work more to catch up, since I release a story every 10 days ideally.

I check my email every day and whenever I see the words "My Little Ventrue" I always get a big ol' smile on my face, no book has ever had this effect on me, it's like magic.

AniNovu

I was tempted to build up to it, drop hints, leave a trail that would lead to this event, like a horror novel. But in the end I thought it'd detract from MLV's more 'suspense' style.

Ooooo this chapter was good! It's like you just keep adding worms to the big ol' can of worms that jack has to talk about when he goes to see the wolves. This combined with the info revealed in the last chapter about Luna has me chomping at the bit for when jack and avery talk next!! Keep up the amazing writing!

Rogue

This chapter hits with feels 😭. I always thought Jack was the older sibling.

TeDureShi

Damn, my mans Jack really can't catch a break huh. Nice twist Novus

Constantine

I am getting Ocean House hotel (from bloodlines) vibes.

AniNovu

My favorite part of that game. :)

It might just be me, but there seems to be a lot of words that end in double LL's in the epub version that are missing the last letter of the word

AniNovu

Got an example sentence?

Adam B

Sure, in the first paragraph the last sentence shows as "time to take a trip through memory lane, knowing ful wel the hel it’d be." Here's an imgur link example: https://imgur.com/AwZF18d

I see it on my file too. Damn, that's weird. I normally create the DocX, then convert that into a PDF using a website, than convert the PDF into an epub using a different website. I'll have to check and see what's up.

Adam B

Yeah, tried the doc and pdf and they both seemed fine. There might be an issue with the site that converts to epub as I've also seen paragraphs that have random line breaks in them in the past few chapters. Example: https://imgur.com/b8CB4Ti

AniNovu

I'm seeing some of those. Damn, I'm going to need to find another website. Thanks for telling me.

MA

Oh yeah. I drafted a whole message to tell you about it but promptly forgot about it :/

TeDureShi

Crazy how scared little Jack, who jumped to in part 3 to save the pack. Can now mentality break all of them, eazy. Can't wait for that dialog between all of them man, especially Clara's reaction

MisterRex

Random question. Where on the map would you put Dolareido? What country? What region? Or is it part of an entirely separate world?

AniNovu

It's in the USA, but I haven't thought about it much beyond that.

One of the better chapters keep it up!

I really should be more accepting of ghosts in this world, but still something about it is so jarring to me. I'm mostly bothered that the first ghost we see is the ghost of our protagonist's dead sister. The phrase that comes to mind is "conveniently cathartic". I seem to be an outlier here though - most people enjoyed the shock. I did get super curious about ghosts, cause now I'm thinking, has Black Blood been eating all the ghosts, and that's why we haven't met one before?

AniNovu

Like when I killed Julias, it wasn't done for shock value. There are story reasons, triggers, domino effects, that I specifically planned for. There's also events that will occur because of these things that are rather important to the story. I did think it looked a little 'convenient' on the surface, but no worries, there's more to this than I've let on.

Malcolm

It’s a big revelation, so I’m glad you have something planned for it. I’m looking forward to seeing where the dominoes fall
