New chapters will be FREE to subscribers.

Thanks for being there for me!

As I prepare to launch my current web serial to the public, I want to go back and do some serious retconning of the first 40 chapters. I will endeavor to keep posting at least one new chapter per week while I juggle these edits plus my other projects (MMO art, learning Blender, YouTube, podcast, day job, family stuff), but I know that’s an excruciatingly slow pace for any reader. And I might have to miss a week here and there.

This is temporary. When I launch this work as a web serial in 2026 (I don’t have a target date yet, but I am considering February), I will charge $3 or $5 for advance chapters.

Fantasy web serial work-in-progress:
MAGITECHNOCRACY

MAGITECHNOCRACY is a story about innovation vs. a wizard bureaucracy.

After surviving an angry peasant mob, Oag would gladly spend the rest of his life hiding in his liege lord’s library. He’s too inept to marry well or to make a name for himself as a knight.

But Oag’s bookish discovery of magic thrusts him into the crux of a brutal war between his medieval continent and an invading empire ruled by wizards with a rigid system of magic. Oag doesn’t know what stats and points are, but he’s hyperaware that princesses are begging for his help and promising him entire kingdoms. He’ll just have to push aside his feelings for the beautiful commoner who keeps saving his life and insisting that she’s a man in a woman’s body.

Entanglements aside, Oag really wants a tutor so he can level up his spellcraft. Too bad the foreign wizards keep inexplicably trying to murder him. Oag has no choice but to rely on terrifying peasant mobs.

The only way he’ll protect his people is by empowering his own warriors with magic, and always by learning more.
