WIP - [Raiden] Dawn of D.R.U.
(enjoy this collection of random art I did of my MC because I don't have a cover yet)
Plans:
- Write 10k words this month.
- ”book” cover for Raiden
- Edit/finish Raiden intro video.
- Begin companion videos for upcoming chapters.
- Write audio logs for each chapter.
What’s done?
Planning of plot events, characters and character involvement, and some art for the story has been finished!
Story Info
I am currently in rough draft mode and 2k words into my story thus far. I am considering this a rough closer to “arc 1” of a continuous story I have been working on in the background with the outline of stories I am currently releasing.
This includes…(in timeline order)
- (FINISHED,not posted) - World of Maga
- (FINISHED,posting in progress) - Plague of The Desert
- (FINISHED,posting finished) - Shattered Gravity
- (FINISHED, not posted) - Architect of Control
- (FINISHED, not posted) - The Council of Terras
- (Current WiP) - Dawn of D.R.U.
Like all my other stories, I usually create a cover for my works, this is still in the works, but know I am pretty close to finishing!
Thus, I am trying to make this bigger and better than previous projects! I have a parody-like intro for my series that I have become quite fond of, but I wanted to update some of the art, so that encompasses one of my goals.
I also plan to have some chapters that lack any written portion, and are instead videos that I either film in live-action, or try to do a rough storyboard of. (Live-action video is much more in my wheelhouse in terms of expertise)
I also have some audio logs to go along with these stories adding some worldbuilding. I plan for there to be a short audio log narrated by one of my characters at the beginning of every chapter.
Of course, the #1 goal is the writing portion! Realistically, all these other goals are more *sub* goals. By the end of the month, I would like to add 10,000 words to my WIP. This would mean I should’ve reached about 12k words by the end of the month!
About the story
Elevator pitch
Raiden, a girl who was born in a space in between dimensions, is found by the Dimension Regulation Unit and registered as a “glitch”. Glitches are the trash of the dimensions, with no real place or home. Raiden is assigned to a team of other glitches to keep the dimensions under DRU’s watch safe from danger, where she discovers her place in the struggle for control over dimensions is deeper than she expects…
For those who frequent my account, this will mean the main characters from earlier stories will essentially become side characters in a “team” of four characters that takes place in my verse. Don’t worry, prior reading is not required, because plot elements that are important are always explained for the reader!
Additional info
I may keep plot info a bit lax because I do plan to post this later after I am finished, so I likely won’t be sharing any big twists or plot spoilers, however, I am still early in the story process, so that likely won’t be much of a worry.
I don’t know if there is a “proper” way to do Camp NaNo, so I think I will stick to weekly updates on my progress and such. (I may share multiple times a week if it’s a busy one!)
