News about the works of AbyssalEros – Stories, images, and more
As these days are traditionally a time when gifts are shared, I want to share mine with you and give you my first published story “The Abyss” for free.
You can now download it from the Stories page.
I hope you will enjoy reading it.
Merry Xmas to you all!
Sincerely yours,
AbyssalEros
As you know, I started last year to render images with DAZ Studio, and because I thrive for quality in everything I do, my works typically take around 10 hours to render.
This is not alone because I use – some would say – insanely high render quality parameters, but also because my computer rig is, although good, quite old.
Continue reading “Gifting myself”Recently I found a bit of time to play one of the myriads of games I bought or crowdfunded in the last score of months.
Honestly, I was only able to play for exactly 99 minutes, then death struck my avatar down, and I realized it was already very late in the night.
As you can see, I was totally spellbound by the story and the game mechanics of the game.
Continue reading “Talking about Games: Tainted Grail Digital”As you know, I submitted last week my story “Circle of Life” to Renderosity’s annual Holiday Contest.

I just submitted my entry for Renderosity’s annual Holiday Contest.
The theme for this year’s contest is Lost Holiday Toys.
As you know, I wrote this week a sweet little story for it and did yesterday a thumbnail image for the entry.
I named the story “Circle of Life,” and the word count is 993.
To not spoil your reading experience, I will not tell you anything about it in advance, so just take a look at it and the other entries.
All I can hope for is that you like my story enough to vote for me as soon as voting starts on December 19 at 10:00 am CT.
In any case, you deserve my thanks already for just reading it, and as usual, you are free to contact me about anything you want to tell me.
Sincerely
yours,

Yesterday, as planned, I finished the translation of the new contest story, remaining shortly under one thousand words. I also managed the first run of proofreading too.
I have given the story for additional proofreading to my two muses; the English one to Farra Triss and the German one to my girlfriend.
I expect both of them to finish tomorrow.
Normally, I
am game-mastering every second Friday our roleplaying evening; however,
tomorrow evening, it might be called off.
If that happens, I will make the final changes after my regular office day and submit
the story at the contest.
If I am out tomorrow to harass my players with monsters and villains, I will do
it on Saturday.
This time it is allowed to do promotion; therefore, I will tell you more as soon as I have submitted my story at the contest.
Sincerely
yours,
AbyssalEros
The last two evenings, I wrote a short little story for a contest. In fact, I only spent Monday evening on it, while yesterday, I did the proofreading and made some minor adjustments.
Naturally, I wrote the story, which still has no name, in my native language. At the moment, it counts 998 words in German.
This evening I will translate the story into English.
Wish me luck that I will still be under the allowed word count of one thousand words after finishing the translation. If I exceed it, I need to rephrase a bit; if I am far under the word count, I have already some passages I would like to add.
Aside of that word count issue, I expect to finish the story tomorrow evening with proofreading.
I will keep you informed.
Sincerely
yours,
AbyssalEros
Welcome to my very own website and my very first post.
I will use this site not only to offer my stories and images in a similar way as I do at my Patreon but also to keep you updated on more mundane stuff.
Here you will find from now on my ramblings about what I am doing, not only what I am working on, but also what books or visual novels I am reading, what games I am playing, or what I am learning at the moment. And much more.
To be honest, I have not had time lately to do anything but learn, improve, and work on several projects at the same time.
However, as now one more of my secret projects has come more or less to a fruitful end, expect soon more of me.
Sincerely yours,
AbyssalEros
