#Gratitoot 😁

I saw someone else celebrating their wattpad rankings here's The Last Philosopher: Part One 🎉

Not to brag, but it was once ranked 9th of more than 500 000 #Fantasy stories.

I think it's easy to forget the good things about our #Indie journeys, and wattpad was good for me at the start of my #Writing journey 😊

Score so far 😁

Dutch: 2
US: 2
Finn: 2

Ebook: https://books2read.com/EmergentConsequences

The painter of the universe, known as Life, just wanted to fulfill her reason for being, by creating a universe full of beautiful wonders and living things, but her twin brother, Death, exists solely to destroy her work, leading to an intractable argument about whose work should prevail.

(Left) The Cover of Emergent Consequences, by Owen Tyme, illustrated by Ryan Johnson.

Life and Death lay asleep in a the grass, the way they lay slightly resembling the yin-yang symbol. The tools of their trades are scattered around them.

Life is a woman with black hair, in a white robe. Behind her are the paint brush and palette she paints the universe with. She's rather short and has rosy cheeks.

Death is a skeleton in a black robe, which appears to be continually disintegrating at the hem line. Behind him lay his scythe and scroll of names.

Between Life and Death is the hourglass that serves as the source of time for the entire universe, an item that's most commonly carried by Death, but which is part of the work of both of them.

The artwork is cartoonish, with some bushes and a tree that has one red piece of fruit dangling from it. The scene is looked upon by the sun, which frowns at everything.

(Right) The background is an image of some green bacteria with the following quote over the top:

"I think I'll call it Ted."

"Ted? You want to name a micro-organism Ted? Are you serious?"

"Yes, Ted."

"Alright, I just thought Bob would fit better."

I've finished: There Are No Giant Crabs in This Novel: A Novel of Giant Crabs

John Dies at the End #5

By Jason Pargin
(a.k.a David Wong)

In Giant Crabs, Dave, john and Amy have to deal with accelerated civilizations that are trying to manipulate them into supporting their cause.

Jason Pargin is tackling the kind of philosophies spouted by the tech broligarchie. Sacrificing our humanity for a perceived grater good, or just building the fascist torment nexus.

It's great to spend more time with Dave and John and follow their shenanigans, but this novel is mostly about Amy and other more competent women.

Remembering that this poll led to The Last Philosopher with illustrations being available at my shop: https://payhip.com/NickEastIndieWriter 😁

As I was editing The Last Philosopher I realised I can add images to #ebooks 😁

I've added some examples of #drawings from my world. The question is, should I put them in the story? 🤔 And if yes how?
