This is actually now published under the title “Five Years Dead” pen name Alex Irving. But you can private message me for more information, if you’d like.

I feel it necessary to note that the server may not be the AFF that you desire. That aside, the MODs are responsive.

I know people have asked about this for several years and I’m finally getting on the ball and getting things moved! Adaptation was first published on AFF years and years ago. It’s been through extensive edits since then and will launch in January 2020. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07XZB146M Thanks for your patience!

Adaptation’s publication was put off due to conflicts with the pen names I had. After much consideration, I’ve considered a third. Alex Irving, where the ‘wordier’ books will be published like the Haven series (including Adaptation, the half-completed Foundation’s Promise and completed but unedited Wanderer, along with two or more unwritten books) Court of the Youngest Son, and an unpublished sci-fi story called Seed4. Possibly another whose working title is Cloud. All are m/m besides Cloud which appears to have no romance, smut, or the like, but it could do with this pen name’s style, I think.

Crazy is really based on perspective. What’s ‘crazy’ for you? Tentacles? Incest? Incest with tentacles during an apocalyptic orgy involving underaged sex slaves? Cannot help you with that suggestion, if that’s what you consider crazy.

Yes, it’s still being published. Having a little struggle with some edits but I still have plans to get this done. Maybe I should do that since the words are dried up and I have no other story to work edit...

I’ve got half a page of almost squat. Yay… slowest writing time ever.

my spoilers aren’t quite spoilers anyhow. So there’s that. Mr. Beard is off getting drunk because it’s St. Patty’s day so I don’t even have him to talk to.

I saw you posted a chapter. I posted my chapter, went to make certain it showed up all right and proper and your story was above mine *pouts* I’m kidding, of course. Apparently, I enable AFF forums to push notifications to me, so for me this is kind of better than Babble. I can tell when someone posts, it pops right up on my screen.

I’m trying to write angels and I’ve been stuck on page one for … about two hours. Because I’ll get stuck and wander the freaking internet instead of just bouncing between the work and Babble.

We should make a forum thread to wander into in the mean time, I just don’t know where it would go…

ah, see I just made an assumption. It’s apparently been out for 24hrs. Or at least, that was the last post.

I actually thought it might be down for repairs.

I’m trying to think of alternatives in the mean time to give DA some of that good chat drug she needs, but all I’ve got for ideas at the moment is making a thread in miscellaneous or something and “chatting” away there. So I’ve tried on my mobile phone, not certain of the browser as it’s just titled “internet” and then on my desktop with Chrome. Both just pop up with that cannot connect to node, I saw no bug report button. I tried the pop up window through Chrome and nothing changed besides having a new window telling me that there was no connection.

I just discovered the same problem, then I saw the timestamp on DA’s last response was at 19hrs ago and I figured it must be an all over problem, or they had pulled the node to do bug repairs. The error that I got on the mobile version is the same one that pops up when I try to send two messages without refreshing, “Babble cannot connect to the node, contact the administrator.”

Think I'm doing this wrong, but… Samsung S5 neo Screen resolution 1080 x 1920

Sounds like you’re talking about my story, Partner: Mik is in a government program to care for a creature of the Sidhe race, an intelligent species they share the world with who appear to be going extinct because of the intervention of Mik’s human like race. (the story expands into a universe where they actually meet humans). Stuff happens, a popsicle is involved and stuff goes so very, very wrong. It’s massively long and there are something like twelve other stories from that world, including Companion, which was sort of a flip on the Partner idea.

The delve into Romance/Erotica has begun! A big thank you to Chrissy for her help with the covers. Isabella Martin was born a hundred years after an economic crash, which changed the whole world. Countries fell, and others rose up in their place. Debt is now genetic. There is no escaping one's family without special dispensation. With the help of a few patrons, the government began a Program which oversaw private contracts between the rich and the poor, contracts that would pay off chunks of debt, or even allow a person to remove themselves from their family and hold a private debt. Each contract has very clear terms dictating what is to be expected of those who sign it. Each one has several escape clauses. The government employed private workers to check in on the contracts to prevent abuse of power. Isabella was a tomboy. She worked as a labourer alongside her father and brothers until she was hurt in a workplace related accident. The other skills she developed in the slums were not exactly marketable, leading her to the Program building in search of a contract to bring her family's debt down any way she could. She was presented with a 'blank slate' contract. No rules, no guides, no escape. This is her story. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LAEH2W8

Uh, this one doesn't sound like mine (but thank you for that!) Five Years Dead: A group of six people travel from eastern Canada to a small city in northern British Columbia that they were told is abandoned. They have all sorts of plans but upon arrival everything starts to unravel in unexpected ways. It centres around a shopping complex, has 'rats,' two organizations, one crazy hillbilly family, but sadly no twins. Then again, the only surviving siblings anyone can list are Net and List, and mainly because they're just too stubborn to die.

Apparently it took two minutes for all the prizes to be claimed. Live and learn. Once I get all moved and settled in I can do another giveaway, they're kind of fun...

And in the time it took me to post that, they were snatched up by everyone on Twitter. In a few weeks I will run another just for AFF and my favourite readers.

I'm doing a giveaway for Trouble, Seat of Magic Book 1, on Amazon! Four copies available! Click here: http://tinyurl.com/o9wwwb5for a chance to win. Unfortunately it's only available to those in America... I'm hoping to do one for those of us outside of America but it will take time. Some rules and regulations apply, no purchase necessary, etc, etc. (Possibly) win a free book!

Congrats!

I know there have been questions through the past couple years as to what happened to my story "Adaptation," a post-apocalyptic tale of six people who travel across Canada to set up a secondary base for their organization five years after the world ended. They had a plan, but it all went down the drain when they found a young man who had been in hiding since the end. Well, it's been through some edits and re-writes and adjustments, even a new chapter, it's name has been changed to Five Years Dead and it's now part of the Haven series, with books two and three almost written. Five Years Dead has now been scheduled for the editor, and will be published in early 2016!
