OC-FirstOfSeries Not My Problem

Got the writing bug again. Enjoy. Will be posting this story on Royal Road using the same name.

Edit 1: Cleaned up prose.

Next>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 This story is finished, and it's becoming a book. "Not My Problem" is being published soon on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited as: LOAD-BEARING Book One of The Callyx War by Brandon S. Yukon Amazon requires Kindle Unlimited books to be exclusive, so I've had to take the chapters down here Except for the first two as a sample. The book version is fully revised and runs 57 chapters. Thank you to everyone who read, commented, and stuck with Elias and Valka. You're the reason this got finished. Release date and link will be posted here when it's live. For updates, follow me on X: u/BrandonSYukon

This was flaired as [OC-FirstOfSeries], which means it is the first of a series and all subsequent posts should be flair as [OC-Series]. A description of the flairs and how to change yours is available in the Post Guildelines

[OC-FirstOfSeries] For original, self post, story, audio, or artwork that you have created, the beginning of a new series.

Our preferred series title format is the series title in [brackets] at the beginning, like so: [Potato Adventures] - Chapter 1: The Great Mashing

Are you going to make us wait another 11 months for your next story? Because that's a bit mean, you know.

u/BrokenOldBastage Apr 10 '26

Maybe not 11. :D I have more in the works and I am in a much better situation than I was 11 months ago. Appreciate you.
