Save Scumming - Chapter Twenty-Three
Magic!So... yeah, we see the foundations of magic here. I think that this is a pretty cool system? But I'd love feedback on it. Obviously, MC is gonna test things out at home in the next chapter. Probably won't learn too much, since... well, no teacher or guidance except for some text documents, but still. A fe...
Save Scumming - Chapter Twenty-Two
I am soooo tired.Nn. More... idk, more about magic next chapter? Or I skip past that and don't explain anything. idk. We'll see how I'm feeling.Chapter Twenty-Two“Ah, everyone, this is... well, you can present yourself,” Damien said.“Hello, everyone,” I said before bowing slightly. It felt like the ...
Fluff - Volume Four - Chapter Thirty
Chapter ThirtyThey spent the night scouting, for a certain definition of the word. Emily was just happy that they made it back without being caught.Still, it hadn’t been a fruitless endeavor. She’d gotten the opportunity to walk all the way around the base that the HRF were occupying. Not from too close, but from n...
Save Scumming - Chapter Twenty-One
This chapter ended up a smidge short, but it was covering something kind of boring, and I didn't want it to linger too long. Anyway! MC ranked up~ Almost? She's on the cusp! Now... let's meet some of her new coworkers and maybe learn a little more about how magic works!Chapter Twenty-OneI woke up bleary and...
Save Scumming - Chapter Twenty

Next chapter will be MC's first day on the job! Progress time!Chapter TwentyJane bent over the side of her bed and fumb...

Dead Tired - Volume Four - Chapter Three
Chapter ThreeThe preparations for the Grand Tournament began slowly and quietly. There were several meetings, but these were private and out of sight of the common person. Then, the announcement came.Handed down by the newly crowned Empress (though there hadn’t really been a coronation, which certainly got some tongu...
Save Scumming - Interlewd - Not-So-Plain-Jane
Contains Jane having a clothing fetish, some cunning linguistics, and the MC being hella pent up.

Save Scumming - Chapter Nineteen
More Jane! I like her, she's goofy to write!Chapter NineteenI walked into the MommaPops and blinked as I discovered the same zit-faced boy behind the counter. For some reason, that felt very funny to me.I... may have been a little more tipsy than I had previously thought. That, or the taxi ride over to here hadn’...
Save Scumming - NEW Chapter One
Rewrite! The old prologue wasn't doing it for me. Too much information that was fluff, not enough angst and action. Lemme know if this one's better?NEW Chapter OneIt was widely accepted that magic was complicated.It was one of those ‘no duh’ kind of facts that people just took for granted because it was so ...
Stray Cat Strut - Volume Eight - Chapter Fifty-Seven
Chapter Fifty-Seven***I got back home a bit after Lucy and discovered her slumped back on the couch, looking exhausted.“You good?” I asked.“Hmm,” she replied before cracking one eye open. “I gave a speech.”“Was it good?” I asked.“It was great,” she replied.I smiled. “I wish I was there.”“Nah,...
Save Scumming - Chapter Eighteen
I hope my regular readers aren't annoyed by all the chapters of this coming out. I... imagine it's a LOT of emails. Chapter Eighteen“Hey, you’re... you never gave me your name, now that I think about it.”I paused mid-push, then slowly lowered my arms down, taking the weight I was pressing upwards with the...
Sporemageddon - Book Five - Psilocybin Two
Psilocybin TwoGoing from the pristine Academy back to the slums was always disconcerting. First, the city didn’t make any efforts to make it easy.The trolley system through the city didn’t lead into the worse parts. It, in fact, made a point of going around. I’d seen one stop simply be removed from the map when t...
Save Scumming - Chapter Seventeen
Poor MC... Deadline won the name. And I think we all liked 'Coda' as a family name. Which makes her... Elise Coda? No, that lacks Gravitas...Elise Anastasia Coda?Elise Octavia Coda?Elise Genevieve Coda?Chapter SeventeenI woke up feeling like I’d slept for an entire day, and that wasn’t too far from the trut...
Save Scumming - Interlude Mizu the Angry Flame
Heeeere's Mizu!Interlude Mizu the Angry FlameShe hated this kind of low-level work.Not that it was beneath her, exactly, it just chaffed. She had ambition enough to see this entire shithole city burn, and yet she, like all the others, had to climb the ladder one rung at a damned time.The anger simmered in her slow,...
Cinnamon Bun - Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-Seven
Chapter Five Hundred and Forty-SevenApparently I’d ‘captained’ too much for one night, so my friends and crew told me to take a day off.That wasn’t to say that I could just lounge back and do nothing all day. Though it was certainly so warm that I felt like I might just melt. It was so warm that my ears weren...
Save Scumming - Chapter Sixteen
Okay! Art's done~ Look at this! Now... one chapter from Mizu's perspective, and then one more from the MC's, and this early 'arc' is done! I hope it was a fun read so far? Chapter SixteenI was pissed off, obviously. So many runs, so many loops, wasted.Was it because I was too slow? But no, I’d tim...
Save Scumming - Chapter Fifteen
Got to use a weird weapon <3 Also, poor MC... Uh... we still need a name for her, lol! I think her next few loops will be all about perfecting the run, then she'll learn how to fight the real boss. That is, a team of D-rankers!Chapter FifteenThe seventh loop proved that I didn’t quite have what it took to take on...

Save Scumming - Chapter Fourteen
I did a lot of reworks on the Gdocs for the early parts. The MC needed more personality. So... I made her more of a (horny) punk! Highlights include: I stood up with a bounce. I was feeling twitchy, and it felt like my adrenaline was spiking even though I wasn’t doing anything.I had always been an underachiever. I wo...
Stray Cat Strut - Volume Eight - Interlude Lucy - School Days Part Three
Interlude Lucy - School Days Part ThreeShe was here thanks to Cat.At the moment, with a knot of stress forming in her stomach, she wasn’t sure if she was pleased about that or not.No, she couldn’t think that way. Her beloved might not usually be able to think more than a few days ahead, but Cat did always think abo...
Stray Cat Strut - Volume Eight - Chapter Fifty-Six
Look, a chapter that isn't the new story! Hope no one was too bothered by all the chapters yesterday! I was trying to beat my all-time 'most words in a day' record... and I did! It's now up to a whopping 9346 words!Chapter Fifty-Six***We rejoined Gomorrah at the same cafe, and I discovered a fresh drink...
Save Scumming - Chapter Thirteen
Not a bad number of chapters! I might consolidate these for the final release? Squish them together? Or maybe not? Who knows!Anyway, that's all for today! 9346 words! New record!Chapter ThirteenI succeeded!I was on the ground, breathing hard and staring at the ceiling. There were two dead kobolds next to me, and a ...
Save Scumming - Chapter Twelve
I feel like I could spend a long time just exploring the dungeon, but that... eh, it's not that fun to write? How many repetitions do you think our intrepid MC will need to get good? Hopefully not too many, because high-octane fight scenes suck to write after a while.Chapter TwelveI paced before the space the porta...
Save Scumming - Chapter Eleven
Minigrix coming back with some colour~Chapter ElevenI made it home, flung those damned shoes off, then swore to myself that I’d never wear them again.I had a few hours until that portal opened, which might as well be forever for me, but I didn’t want to risk being mentally tired. I was certain that I wouldn’t suc...
Save Scumming - Chapter Ten
Our girl is down horrendous.What'd you think of the magic talk? I'm not revealing how it all works in one go, but am spoonfeeding it as I go... because I'm still figuring it out too! Chapter TenI had nothing to worry about. The meeting proceeded more or less as it had last time. It started with the ‘tell ...
Save Scumming - Chapter Nine
Thanks to my job as a writer, I haven't had to sit in on an interview in a long time.Thank goodness. Anyway, gonna skip ahead in the interview to the point where they test her abilities, then show the differences from 'last time' even though we didn't see last time. More fun that way! Hmm... how should ...
Save Scumming - Chapter Eight
I have the day off! So, my all-time record for most words written in one day is 7.6K, from like, a year and a half ago. Let's see if I can't beat that? A new story with lots of inspiration is the best for that, yeah?Also, the premise of this story lends itself really well to lewd side-stories, and if I'm go...
SCS TTRPG - Update Nineteen
Been a minute! Only have some small, minor updates on this one. Mostly I've been fixing up as many typos and small mistakes as I could. I think I'm happy calling this one a 'mostly done' project.Could it be better? Yup! If I gave myself another month I'd love to draw up art that explains how differe...
Save Scumming - Chapter Seven
EZ dress-up chapter is ez. Plus Jane was fun to write! She comes off as strong and obnoxious, but that makes her fun and easy to play with!Chapter Seven -Not-So-Plain Jane was rather... a lot for someone who may or may not have been a criminal.“So, what’re we talking here? Some B&E, you gonna merc an ex-lover? You ...
