YO!

3 min read

 *What if I told you that the world was gunna end? And you had Fifteen Minutes to spend with me or your friends? Would you take the first bus over to my house or would take the last plane over to the west cost?*


Hello everyone! <_<  I am Alive!  >_> I Think. Well I still think therefore I still am I suppose. I hope you all have been doing well! *nods*


   As for myself its basically like normal. I've been super busy and distracted. But this whole time I have been doing stuff. Promise. I typically use art now a days for gifts to family and friends. One thing I like to do is to well do Gla's think of Cel's but instead of Cellophane Paper its Glass Sheets. Granted as of right now it has been of other peoples characters. I don't sell them since they aren't really mine. I just reproduce partly because just like my writing I don't have a real style of my own. I'll show you a few examples of these soon!

On the Novel front I've shorten my projects workload (beginning last year) down to just Two Novel Series instead of say like 60 different ones hopefully I'll finish a zero draft for one of the two series some time this year. One series (Kazima Lament Series) has 3-4 novels in it as of this moment and one (Blue Skies) has only 1 but my focus is currently on the larger one. My mind jumps around so much so I work on different parts of the story over a course of the week. I'll eventually finish something. I have a general idea of what has gone on and is going to happen over the course of several hundred years (that's why there's 3-4 novels currently). I've designed several characters for that novel series and am continuing to do so.

You can expect some stuff from me here tho for the novel I may end up making a blog site for it that's solely focused on it but I'm unsure *_* who knows?

I'll make another update I guess if and when I do for those on here who want to keep pace with that series ( Kazima Lament Series).  I'm probably forgetting things here but ._. Ja ne!

"Can you appreciate the wind? And I won't care, I won't fight. I need you close[...] It's the same beginning, Gone Away. It's the same old [...] It's my whole life, in words. And I can't breath [...] But I'll be there to hold you tight. And I would Kill... I would fight, to keep you close." But it's my life, yet I can still feel you in the wind "Gone Away"


OI! Hello everyone. Sorry I've been a wreck and very busy <_<  >_> mhh. I still work on the gaming website- Theonsgaming.com and it's attached YouTube. So content rolls out there infrequent but still exists and takes considerable time. I've recently started working on a major writing project though. But I'm unsure the pov I should use. 1st person allows for a deeper connection tot he main Protag true, and I can make it have multiple pov's provided I make the characters well. I've written a zero draft of most of the beginning scene, which I titled chapter 0 it's not long but I wrote it in 3rd pov.

This major writing project is pooling a lot of my extra time resources, as well as many ideas I've been working on. Its a retelling/remake/finishing, fleshing out and expanding  (yeah its a lot of things.) of my Kazima Lament story. Originally Kazima Lament was a story dealing with a curse bloodline basically a clan in the Naruto world that was suppose to be short. I came up with the character and Bloodline for a hobby game I worked on (I've mentioned it Naruto: Cursed Bloodlines) Hmm Hmm but yes it was originally for Naruto, you all know? That anime with loud orange wearing NINJA... Dattebayo? Believe it~!~   No? Okay moving on from that...

The main character Zeff Kazima was one of the reasons I was here. For a time he was my Online persona as it were. Pretty much a dark moody cocky emotional mess who acts cool... So basically everything I am but you know cool! So original as well I KNOW. plz do not steal... But his story wasn't told... right. And I began to hate it. During the game I role played that character a lot, expanded his well character. But since the game didn't happen seemed all for naught. Then I started writing blog posts on the story but. Again I started not liking it. Sure the character Zeff is immensely powerful and there is a place for such fiction. But I want to tell his story in such a way that it moves people.

I've often felt if I leave enough written work behind that maybe I wouldn't be forgotten...and so I'd never die. Death... scares me it scares a lot of people. Sadly having dealt with deaths recently its on my mind. Anyways. SO I decided to re-re-redo Kazima Lament, but at the same time basically pooling ideas and stuff from other series I had planed or worked on for the last few years. Kind of as a way to well focus on this one.

Again I have a zero draft of chapter 0 so I will put that up here for anyone who wishes to comment. I have kept ninja stuff in the story but I will explain through time why that is. The world itself is OC and will take time as I only have a small area in my head currently but I will flesh it out with a world that's... plausible.




This is troublesome... Z-Z uh... what else... what else? *shrugs* I need to get back to writing. & posting that beginning part.

Heya Everyone

Hi everyone!, yes another state of affairs kind of journal. Again I haven't been here much but that's because of current projects taking much of my time. Considering I'm 1 out of 4 yet I do 3/4th's the work, you all can see why I'd be irritated with the other 3...but even still I'm only trying to push them to do more; and end up with them doing less for one reason or another. Circumstances of course happen and even I understand, in fact I'm the most understanding of the 4... and most understanding out of many, many people... least that's what others have stated.. All I want is them to do their 25% of the work. Fair right? Right. But enough of me complaining on that; considering I'm actually really happy otherwise lets get into whats going on:

-ONS GAMING-

I'm going to start here because well this is where I spend most my time when not sleeping or doing my "day job"; no true free time for me; ONS Gaming recently hit a few milestones: 20 subscribers to website; 21 likes on our Facebook page: facebook.com/theonsgaming , 16 followers on our twitter, twitter.com/theonsgaming ;and more impressive we hit 1,000 views on our website before the end of our 6th month. :D

Because of that I started working on content for YouTube. Its in its infancy and well I suck at video editing and my software hates hates hates hates hates hates...hates...(15 more hates later) Minecraft; the second one isn't as bad as first so I'm improving but yeah... I'll post links to them in a second. Because it hates Minecraft and they happen to be in or about Minecraft the videos quality is lesser than what I wanted them to be. So please forgive that as you watch them and I hope you do. Note I dont talk normally for the videos so... yeah ^^; That doesn't help them either because no one knows what I sound like normally so I'm currently working on some videos talking normal for people to be able to hear the real me.

      1st one:  : To Tell a Tale: A Pirates Life for me part 1 :


      2nd one:  : Creepus Explodus; HisSciChan:
 
On top of YouTube content I'm in "control" of the website and the tumblr (ONSGaming.tumblr.com) currently. For the website I update the pages... we are not just a blog!~!. As for the tumblr I post the majority of the content on there. :D

We kind of need help as we dont get interaction on any of the avenues/mediums currently so its hard for the other three judge if we are doing good or not; So if any of you see fit message us on any of the sites with questions, thoughts, etc ^_^.

-Non-ONS Gaming-

I have currently been re-working on how I work on non-ONS Gaming projects so I can better utilize the time I spend on such projects. I mentioned them in the last update on here, the only newest one is actually a trading card game based off video games that currently I'm working on the base rules. The arts going to be 8-16bit style but that's going to take awhile so working on rules than basics of cards before moving forward.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'll have a bigger update later on in the future :D

You all stay awesome !

So i haven't been on here for awhile so i should clue all of my awesome friends and anyone wanting to know more about me... on here in on everything's that's been going on with me. XoX

Where do I start though?

ONS GAMING-

For awhile now i have been doing art for the sake of ONS Gaming, because out of the 4 fathers of ONS Gaming, i'm the only one with both writing and art talent though the art talent is... well like a droplet of talent as I'm not that great of an artist and i know art is one of those in the eyes of the beholder kind of things, some people can say 3 red dots on a yellow background is beautiful art.... so I'm sure some people can like my crappy art, but compared to whats in my head the execution and final product i show is just... lacking... :( but yet i strive to become better, getting programs that can help me and that i can learn so what i see in my brain happens to eventually come onto paper or screen until then its all just symbolic of what i see i suppose.

ONS Gaming recently hit 700 views ~which for me who checks on it daily it is exciting~ shows the work i do consistently and the work the other 3 do, plus the assistance from our contributors (thank you), its all  paying off.

it would be awesome if we got a lot of views everyday but right now that's not feasible. :{

I've been working a lot on ONS Gaming, currently working on 9 reviews, including 2 that will eventually end up on the ONSG Youtube channel.

Sickness-

I recently came down with an illness that left me sidelined from doing anything that i love or hate. I couldn't go and do my normal job, i couldn't drive, could hardly walk. I also couldn't play video games or watch tv or movies, or read anything either. all i could do most of the time was lay down or sleep. sometimes i was able to watch tv but not over the volume of 8 which sucked horribly, this lasted little over a week and a half :(. While the majority of the issues steaming from it are going i still suffer minorly from it.

Writing-

While i write a lot for ONSGaming (approximately 35,000+ words (2,000 a week)) that only counts for my word count total, and not for my Fictional Words written since most of the ONS Gaming stuff is really non-fiction.  So i had been putting of my fictional work because of EVERYTHING dealing with  ONS Gaming because there's a lot and im proud of it its something i can easily go "Hey, check us out :3"

The Summer's Vale- A novel (the first of the 13k series) has been jumped back to planning as i can connect the middle to the end currently so i need to rework some things so it all makes sense, that ones over 45,000 words.

Feathers in Space- A novel (of the Falcons of Terra Firma Series) is currently being worked on, its planned half way, and only has 2,000 words though the first chapter is 'finished'.

Kazima Lament- Currently an online Short story series being posted in parts on my Writing Blog, the next part is currently being worked on though its only got 300 words on it. It will be broken up into a series of parts much like other portions of the story have been thus far.

Fate of Three Trees- Another one of my online short stories being posted on the blog, is also being worked on after a hiatus from this story a new post should come for it in a few weeks.

3-6-5- While the 3-6-5 Hell on Earth project is currently paused, 3-6-5 will see another project to come.

Various other short stories and poems come about as they pop in my head though many of them are put off to the side as i currently have way too much on the brain O>O


Other News-

I am currently also seeking another full time job to replace the one i have, though i dont think i will find anything in the short term, not till mid next year at the earliest, in an effort to garner more money for projects and moving.. again by 2015.
