Back from the dead!?!?!? (January 20, 2008)

So I still haven't updated in a couple centuries, whoops, my bad. Only been five months. But Shades of White is almost done, after writing 99% of it during NANOWRIMO... but it will be done at some point in January, or February, yay.

WOW... haven't upadted this in a while.... (September 5 2007)

yes. well. sorry about that. I've more recently started working on Shades of White again.... nice progress there. also working on the synopsis for Midnight Sun.. finished it last night (18 pages -- needs to be shortened )

also been working on Kathmandu Can Do and Ebony Cross.... but those are just for paradox

Shades will be my next book after midnight sun, then possibly I will actually get around to finishing The Gate. maybe I will work on that.

Yo, dawg, czech it out! (April 21, 2007)

So um, I guess I haven't updated in a whiel..... :(

Shades of White is [slowly] being written. Also the synopsis for Midnight Sun.

 

PLus more stuff.....

Shades of White! (February 3, 2007)

I added a page for my next novel, Shades of White. Also, its in the page count section too*.

*Keep in mind that it may be a bit innacurated, because as per Claire's suggestion I am re-writing the prologue in a different style.

And as of 10:56 PM today, I am more that 5/7 done with part 5 (the last one) of Midnight Sun. So I am overall 33/35 done with Midnigth Sun. I've come a long way since last november when I started it. So look for a party this month. I'll probably combine it with a Christmas party and a few of my friends' birthdays.

Finally, I made a trailer for Midnight Sun incase it ever comes out. check IT out: MIDNIGHT SUN TRAILER

Happy Two Days After Thanksgiving (November 25, 2006)

We lost in bowling today .

Should be getting a Wii tomorrow or the next day.

Updated the page count for Midnight Sun (getting close to the end).

Also made some small changes to the forum. I gave Sabutilnik a "Loser" ranking on my forums. That'll teach him to link to a drug website.

Vote yes on 296! (August 11, 2006)

I just hit 296 pages!! Yes!!! But it's so close to 300. I am going on vacation (without a computer ) so I won't be able to update. But I will most likely still be writing the old-fashioned way (in a notebook!). So when I get back, expect a 300-page party!!!!!1!!!!!

Happy Birthday! (April 24, 2006)

Today's my birthday! I'm 14 today. Yay!

Now, for the updates part of this update... hmm...

I haven't added any of the stuff I said I was going to on the 22nd, but I'll get around to it.

Also, if anybody actually reads this, you should go to my Forums, register a new account, and vote on the poll in the messages from rcduggan section. So far we only have 3 votes.

I also updated the page count for Midnight Sun, which is the only book I'm working on right now.

Update!!!!!!!! (April 22, 2006)

Okay, this is the first update in a while. Nobody has said which excerpt they want... :(

Anyway, I will make a poll on the Forum. Vote on which excerpt you want.

Also, I might be adding some stuff to The Devasia Files, such as information about:

  • Characters that got taken out (Hawkie, Sal Varna, Chaos)
  • Ideas that got cut (Corra and Enzo were brothers born in Devasia, Corra was the Lord of the Devastas)
  • Old book ideas that crashed (Green Fire)
  • Other Miscellania (Old character names, etc)

Plus, I'm working on this really detailed timeline for Midnight Sun in the Project Mazun section. It covers from 2024, when the Midnight Sun plant melts down, to the 2700s. I'll post that eventually.

Also, there is a new layout.

I might post more later, but that's all for now.

AN UPDATE! (April 7, 2006)

I know, can you believe it?

Anyway, to buisness.

I haven't been working a HUGE amount, but I've done some. You can see my progress in the Page Count section.

Also, I was thinking about adding an excerpt of one of the chapters of one of my books. If you have reasons why I should, or should not, do this, (and if you have a preference for which book, right now I'm leaning towards Midnight Sun) either email me at ryancduggan@comcast.net, or post it on the Forum.

Guess that's it!

Nothing (February 11, 2006)

  • Only update is a page/word count for each novel I'm writing or have written. Go to "Page Count" Section                                                                                                          
  • I still haven't heard from Mundania, but any day now...                                                                                                                                    
  • Soon I'll be submitting it to other publishers, if they don't email me back in the near future.
  • UPDATE: I also added some stuff to the Project Mazun section.

DELETED! (January 28, 2006)

I deleted the "Anti-Reality Room" and the "My Game" pages. The Anti-Reality Room because it was just stupid, and the My Game page because im not working on that game anymore.

In other news, STILL HAVEN'T HEARD FROM MUNDANIA YET!

In other other news, I'm thinking of maybe possibly making a collection of short stories written by me and some other people (my friends etc). If you want a chance of your story being in the book, email it to: ryancduggan@comcast.net. Or if you can't email it for some reason, you could always post it on my forum in the "The Gate" topic.

Midnight Sun (January 19, 2006)

I added a synopsis of Midnight Sun to the Project Mazun page. Go check it out.

Also, I find out if my book gets published in three days. I can't wait!

More Bios! (January 11, 2005)

I added the bios for Krasen Ingerson Pteran, Pyrnia Valance-Vasquez, Arska, and the Commander.

Also, I added music to the intro page.

Update (January 10, 2006)

Not much. I just made an intro page, as you can see. I also updated the Bios section with quotes for One through Nine. Lastly, I added more to the Terra Map.

Terra Map (January 4, 2006)

I am going to try to scan a map of Terra. It will be in the Devasia Files Section.

Also, I added an Archived News Section. I don't  want any ads on the page, so I will move news into the Archive every once in a while.

'Tis the Season for an Update! (December 25, 2005)

Merry Christmas. I hope you all got a lot of good stuff. I know I did. Anyway, a bunch of updates. I added the synopsis for Monolith. Also, I might be scanning some stuff soon if I feel like it. Lastly, there is some big news! I have finished the chronology for Monolith, Terra War, and The Gate. Check it out in the Devasia files.

Christmas Update (December 22,2005)

The Gate is coming along nicely. Also, I will find out if Monolith gets published in about a month.

Merry Christmas, Happy Chaunakah, Happy Kwanza, and for all you PC people... a general HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Forum Up (December 5, 2005)

The Devasia Forum is now up, although it doesn't have much stuff on it yet. Click on the link on the NavBar to go there.

Also, an update on my books. I have finished the first, Monolith, finished (except for editing) the second, Terra War, and just started the third, The Gate. I am also working on a totally unrelated book, Midnight Sun.

Also I am getting high-speed internet soon, so I will try to update more often. One thing I will do is add more to Project Mazun so it actually makes sense.

See ya.

Character Biographies (November 25, 2005)

I added the biographies of characters. It's in the Devasia Files section.

Project Mazun and more...

I've added a bit to Project Mazun. Also I will be uploading a page with a short bio of a lot of the characters from my novels. Monolith has also been sent to a publisher, Mundania Press LLC. I expect to hear back from them by late January.

Welcome!!
