Viktor Athelstan's Desk

Just starting my thread for my desk. Right now I'm working on the Brother Cellanus rewrite and a collection of short stories for self publication. (Hoping to have that out in May 2026!)

Finally finished my second completed draft of Brother Cellanus volume I! It's at a whopping 102k words, more than the original 26k words of the webnovel. I am hoping with some revisions, I can get it under 100k words. I'm still deciding whether or not I will try to find an agent for it or if I want to self publish. But that is a problem for future me!

New YouTube video where I am doing a quick March (April) update.

I'm never sure what my next YouTube video will be, but I do plan to do a review of Love Habit and maybe do a folklore collection type thing like I did for my Halloween video. I might talk about some exempla. Idk yet, but I DO know I want to talk about Love Habit.

My review on Love Habit! Overall, I found this book enjoyable and well researched. An 18+ read though. I'm not one for a lot of smut in my romance though. (Hence the video title that some things in this book were not for me and that's okay!)

I think my next YouTube video will be a review of The Salt Grows Heavy. Or at the very least, I will make that video to have as a back up while I do research for my next video. I still want to do one on medieval demons.
