The Battle of Taillte

by John Creel

It all ends on the Hill of Taillte. One last battle to decide the victor of an age-old conflict. Human and fairy will cross blades in a cataclysmic struggle, a final outpouring of hatred and madness that will leave ashes and tragedy in its wake. The war, terrible and senseless, has finally reached its end, and no war has a happy ending. Rated T for violence and language.

10. Author's Update

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the fusillade of necroposts (I don't always necropost, but when I do, I necropost for a relatively good reason). I just want to notify my current followers of something. I will not post in these stories again after this, and therefore not deluge the front page with old completed works. I apologize, on my knees, with the utmost humility.

As some of you may know, I have been working on a novel of my own for a little while. I actually finished the rough version a year ago, and after having a few people read it I tackled making a good copy for publishing, which was very time consuming. My intention was to publish it sooner, but it is my first book and as such there were many things that I needed to do that I did not originally anticipate, naturally there being setbacks and vexatious little roadblocks. Now it is published, albeit self-published, and it felt only right to share such information on this site. This is a community of writers and readers, and it is where I started writing fiction, so I see no harm in sharing this information here with you, my readers.

I understand that this is blatant and shameless self-promotion, but it is also my understanding that such is rather necessary these days. Subtlety doesn't work very well. You can completely disregard this update if you want, throw tomatoes at me, etc, that's perfectly alright. I just want to inform those who may be interested. I am offering the eBook variant of it for free (on Lulu), pro tempore, so no this is not for my profit (So mods, please don't outright eviscerate me). That version is a lot more simple in its looks, as in less fancy text and other such decorations due to the whole epub conversion process (There's also a print version though).

Go to my profile if you are interested (there is a link to my website, where more info is present). Regardless of what you do, I would like to thank you for reading this, and thank you even more for reading my fan fictions. Without this place, and without you, I would have never started writing. So once again, thank you, and all the best!

Regards,

Spencer (AKA John Creel)
