Hi Everyone,

Hope you enjoyed today's chapter!

I'm really excited to share some news — my very first published novel is now live on Amazon!

It's called Averix: Call of the Everloft, a Dark Fantasy LitRPG featuring:

Brutal, fast-paced action

Deep worldbuilding and lore

Character-driven storytelling — survival, sacrifice, and the cost of power.

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

It's a story I worked on a year ago off and on that I decided to take this plunge with. It's darker and bloodier than Demon Hat, so it won't be everyone's cup of tea. But if you enjoy LitRPG with high stakes and progression at its core, I think you'll find something to love here.

This is a milestone for me — my first step into publishing. If you do check it out, an honest review or rating on Amazon would mean a lot. Early reviews help new books find their audience.

Don't worry — Demon Hat will continue as normal. Averix is me expanding into new territory while still keeping up with the story you know and love. Demon Hat itself will be published next February and will be getting audiobook treatment.

Thanks for being here and supporting me. You're the reason I was able to take this step at all.
