I think I'm finally content with my story synopsis. Hit me in a bit of inspiration as I was reading volume one of Berserk.

>Hress Dunter is handsome, devil-may-care, and known as a bounty hunter of monstrous beings known as Accursed. After saving a woman from a dark fate, Hress is placed on trial with his very life hanging in the balance. From this first falling domino Hress's own fate will be turned towards the great and mysterious WISH MOUNTAIN, where the most dangerous Accursed find their origin.

[Chapter 8 released today!]

On the surface Hress Dunter is every bit the handsome young man one would expect a hero to be. After saving a seaside town from blood-drinking beings known as Accursed, Hress planned to spend the rest of his days living off his folk hero status and the small fortune he was paid for a job well done. However after accepting an invitation to a royal ball, a crucial decision lands Hress as the prime suspect in a murder.

Wish Mountain follows the adventures of Hress Dunter and his companions as they journey up a mysterious mountain. Legend tells whoever reaches the heart of Wish Mountain will receive one all-powerful wish, but nobody in a thousand years has been able to get there.

The series will run for a long time. Many arcs and chapters ahead.

Morning lads.

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/37998/wish-mountain/chapter/609878/the-trial-of-hress-dunter-chapter-one

Six chapters out at the moment. Next chapter ends the episode one arc.

If anyone has questions about the story, or about the writing process, ask away. There's 70 pages worth of story to be read with more on the way, just needs to be edited.

>progress on novel

Quite a bit. Episode one is only one more chapter away from being done, then on to Episode two.

There's a solid arc of events that happen in the current six chapters that have been released. The remaining chapter is focused on wrapping things up and moving into the next ep.

I've put a lot of work into getting this story written to a standard I'm happy with. One thing my story has which you won't often find in web novels is word economy.

>Yeah so Wish Mountain is about a guy called Hress Dunter -- yeah yeah sounds like 'Dress Hunter' lol, he's accused of murdering the Prince of Rose Kingdom, and the first episode of the series delves into whether or not he's an innocent man or not. Also there's vampires in the story with big tits like yours. Can you go get me a hotdog?
