Later this year, I'll start serializing my urban fantasy series Hunting Midnight to the Scholar & Scribe writing community.
It will work much like The Childseeker's War did, with about 1,000 words per post along with regular contests to encourage readership.
This story is much longer, with over 200,000 words planned (CS War was just over 60K). So it should last a good while, something like a year if I do 2–4 posts/week!
📚 Before I start posting, I'll run a little readlist event / giveaway. This will encourage people to join the readlist, which means you'll get a Hive notification/mention on every part. Readlist members gets all sorts of bonus prizes on top of being informed about new parts :)
Here's the synopsis for the first part of Hunting Midnight:
Impossible phenomena and a chaotic stalker lead her to a grandfather clock with backward numbers. The ghost inside believes she's there to help it escape, and offers to show her the world through its eyes. With one fateful glimpse, Alena ignites a journey that becomes much more than a trade of sanity for safety, and enters a long entrenched battle for the sovereignty of the soul.
The Ghost in the Clock is the inaugural episode of Hunting Midnight, a paranormal adventure series that shatters genre expectations by delivering as much charm as it does creepshow, as many smiles as it does spooks, and an unforgettably unique cast of villains and heroes.
Contains strong language, sexual themes and scenes of violence
I believe I've sent all the Hive token-based prizes to folks. There may be a few people who still need to claim, so please do so in this thread if that's you!
NFTBooks still need to go out, and I need to mint the 1 of 1's still. I am bit behind schedule on that, but it's written down on my to do list and it will happen once work and life allows :)
Appreciate everyone's patience in that regard! Any questions or concerns, please leave a comment or ping me on Discord ~ jfuji#0169
