Evan writes Sci-Fi

Or something along those lines. I'm a hobbyist writer who enjoys every form of creativity, be it music, art, writing, cinematography... even though I'm incapable of doing most of them myself. Also a bit of a gamer. Actually more of an addict, to be honest. On this blog I'll periodically share my writing work, some music or just my thoughts. Sometimes there's random gifs I made. Welcome! Home to the Gaia Project trilogy, my main project. Check it out! The Twits | Notebook.ai About me

My second book is now on Wattpad!

Read it and its synopsis HERE!

So, quoting my FAQ

‘What’s your greatest dream?‘ If I ever receive any fan-art or something else based on my works, I’d probably explode into a giant fireball of happiness.

And guess what?

SOMEONE MADE FANART AHH I’M GONNA DIE IT’S AMAZING AHHHHHHHH

I can’t really show it here because I haven’t gotten the maker’s express permission but you can’t imagine how happy I am right now over this single drawing

I shall treasure it forever

My works are now on Wattpad!

Hey hey. I don’t know if you know, but I’m a writer. And I used to publish everything on here, which was... impractical. So I moved it. Check out my Wattpad page where the first book of my trilogy The Gaia Project is already out! You can read it for free online, mark your progress, even leave comments directly on the chapters. When you have the time, let me know what you think!

Thanks so much!

Anyone else who can never let go of the first big thing they ever finished writing? I love the characters from my first book to death and I’m not sure I’ll ever stop working on them.

[evanpikeisweird]

I totally forgot I promised to talk about the other thing I’m working on. So here’s a snippet from a yet untitled novel:

Samil jumped up from the rock she was sitting on and whipped around, her left hand bursting into flame. Monica looked up in surprise.  „What’s going on?“ she asked. Instead of answering, Samil extended her arm at a stick on the ground next to her. It zoomed into her hand. She used it to quickly carve a rune into the ground. It looked like a crooked letter W. She circled it with the stick, pointed two fingers of her right hand at the trees, aimed and stomped the sigil with her foot. A bolt of lightning shot from her hand and cracked across the clearing. It hit something in the forest with a thundering crash. They heard a scream as a blue light briefly lit up the surrounding trees. Samil immediately drew another rune in her mind and used it to conjure a ball of light, which she threw into the air. It followed her as she slowly advanced at the tree line. Monica caught up to her.  „What in the world are you doing?“ she asked.  „There’s someone out there,“ Samil said. She waved her hand forward and the ball of light zoomed into the trees. In the yellowish light they could see the silhouette of a person staggering to their feet.  „Don’t move!“ Samil shouted, making the fire in her hand flare up. The person slowly raised their hands.  „I’m not here to hurt you!“ a male voice called back. It sounded vaguely familiar.

This is the most unconnected bit of story I could find. I hope it gives you a little taste of what I’m working on. It’s a bit of a departure from the usual sci-fi pew-pew space battle theme, but I always wanted to create a universe that has magic. This book will, however, contain themes that are a lot darker than the TGP series or the still unfinished Fake World. It will tackle things like depression, loneliness and having to face the world when you are sure it wants nothing more to do with you. All packaged with a nice bit of modern fantasy.

Man, how do I come up with this crap?

Anyway. That’s what I’ve been up to. If you’re interested, you can check out my free sci-fi trilogy The Gaia Project or read more about me.

To whom it may concern,

I feel obliged to inform you that I am in fact still alive and writing (even if not kicking. Kicking is hard when you’re lying in bed with a computer on your lap).

I’m still working on the third book of The Gaia Project series. Proof? Have some:

TGP3 is coming along... well, not nicely. It’s coming along. If I’m not horribly blocked and working on something else to pass the time (like I am at the moment, tell you more about that later), I’m usually working on Singularity. It’s been a little tough. There’s a concept in my mind, but no way to get from A to B without cutting corners, if that makes any sense at all. Long story short, Singularity is coming eventually. Maybe I’ll share a few snippets of some other stuff I’m working on in the meantime ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you’re interested for some reason, check out my stuff!

If you’re interested in me, check out... me, I guess?

The Gaia Project: Renegade (Free download)

Hey! I know it’s been a while, but my second book is finally ready for release! Find the download (and more info) down below if you’re impatient or read the summary first:

When Alex and Judy are on their way home from a salvage run after having taken jobs at the Hub, they find an unmanned spaceship drifting in empty space. They go to investigate, not knowing that they have long been pulled back into the maleficent doings of Sirius Interplanetary. Suddenly Judy is nowhere to be found…

Download it here! (.epub E-Reader format)

More info about the series here

It’s been fun writing the sequel to the first book and I’m proud of what I’ve done. I’m already working hard on the epic finale that will be the longest book of the series.

I don’t have much more to say here, just tell me what you think about it if you’d be so kind. Thanks for being awesome!

(Cover art coming eventually. I don’t know when. Like, I wanted to make a proper book cover for this, but I wanted to learn blender because I had something specific in mind. That was two months ago. Maybe someday. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

I suck at writing publishing posts.

Writing is hard, man.

Full release (and download) of my first book!

Hey! Do you like sci-fi, adventure stories, space operas and the likes? Well, I got just the thing for you!

I have just finished reworking and formatting the first book of a trilogy called The Gaia Project. It has been in the works since June of 2016 and it has taught me a lot about writing. (Mainly that you are never really finished…) If you are interested in reading it, here is a synopsis: When mechanic and loner Alex crashes on the surface of a deserted planet she only visited to get replacement parts for her spaceship, the last thing she expects to find is another crashed ship. Inside, she discovers an injured girl named Judy, who proves to be so much more than just a shipwreck victim. A dangerous chase through the galaxy ensues, heading toward Judy’s home planet, Gaia…

Download it here! (.epub E-reader format)

More info here.

Tell me what you think, I’d love hearing from you!

Timezone reblog. Also, if you’re not sure how to open an .epub file, you need an E-book reader.

Calibre is just one example, but it works on pretty much anything. I can also recommend Lithium for Android devices. Apple devices come with iBooks pre-installed, which is pretty good.

Spread the love.

I just started up my super old laptop for the first time since I retired it in 2014. The thing still works. Best part is I found all my old stories that I had written years ago. They are giving me so many ideas...

The fbi agent who watches my webcam must be pretty amused at the faces I pull when I’m trying to describe a character’s expression in my writing.

[evanpikeisweird]

Ska time.

[evanpikeisweird]

Alright, so I usually love British english, right I usually think it looks a little more beautiful than American english But Look at the way they spell the word ‘manoeuvre’. WHAT IS THAT

[evanpikeisweird]

Man, writing in American english is hard when you were taught British english first. Good thing there’s spellcheck.
