The day has come!

　　Hello everyone, and sorry for being late. This chapter is the very last update on Shades of the Moon; I just came here to announce that I have finished writing the first two books of Synergy, the so-called rewrite of this story. I`m now working full force on the third book, and it`s fair to say that it`s an almost completely different story by this point. (Same same, but different, but still the same!)

　　If you enjoyed Shades of the Moon, I highly recommend to check Synergy out; it`s basically a more professionally written version of this story, better in every aspect. Even if you worry about "already knowing the story" I`d still recommend reading it, since there are enough unique twists and deviations from this novel so that it ought to feel exciting.

　　Blurb:

　　The story of my new life began when I woke up on another planet. Not the strangest thing I`ve ever experienced, but definitely in my top five.

　　Sometimes I still dream about a world without magic, a world where I don`t have supernatural powers, where I`m not regarded as an expendable test subject. A world with coffee and internet. Oh, what a beautifully boring world that would be!The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

　　What to expect:

　　--> Guaranteed updates at least twice a week. (Book 1 and 2 are already written.)--> No filler chapters. (Story structure is already plotted out.)--> GameLit, one that`s a little bit subversive. Don`t expect pages long stat tables and number crunching.--> Slow buildup. Although the Strong Lead category applies to the story, this is no power trip fantasy.--> Some romance, though it will never be the main focus.--> Humor and dark elements in equal measure, but not to the extent that I`d label this story as "Comedy" or "Grimdark".

　　... and lots and lots of "Author`s Notes". See you on the other side of the portal!

　　Oh, and I haven`t deleted the previous chapter ("Afterword and end notes") yet, so if you`d like to know more about why I did the rewrite feel free to check it out! Its main conclusion is this, however: I have learned a lot about how to write stories. Synergy is going to be a story that stands on a way more stable foundation, and so I would be able to continue writing it for much longer than Shades of the Moon.

　　Although Shades of the Moon was quite long too (1200+ pages), the worldbuilding and the story structure were all over the place; it had way too many unnecessary scenes and dangling plotlines. At this rate it would have taken me forever to reach a proper conclusion. I`ve learned that when writing a web novel a surprisingly lot depends on good planning, especially because I can`t go back and edit already published chapters. SoI believe that having written Shades of the Moon gave me excellent ideas for the world and the story I actually want to write --- it was basically a great big setup for Synergy. Now that I know what I want and how to do it, I`m confident that Synergy will turn out to be a much better novel than Shades of the Moon could ever be.

　　So, this is it.

　　The end, and a new begining.

　　Thank you for reading my novels, and thank you for following me along this journey!
