2023-24: The Year I Burned Out
The last post I made on this Patreon was January 2nd, 2024. In that post, I talked about Cultivation Novels and how I was looking forward to talking about them in the next post.That next post never materialized. A lot of 'next posts' didn't.The year 2024, and to an even greater extent, t...
I love Cultivation Serials.
Hey there, readers. It's me, Klokinator. Long time no talk. Once again, months have passed since my last Patreon post. Time flies when you return to working a day job.As of TCTH Part 532, I have begun introducing a really important new power system and concept to the Cryoverse: The Art of Cultiv...
What's coming next for the ol' Klok Patreon?
March. I haven't made a post on here since March, FFS. Time flies so fast, and my sense of it feels like it's getting less and less connected to reality. Sometimes I swear a day has passed and it's actually been five. Maybe that's just the result of growing older, I don't know.We...

Umi AI: The Ultimate Character Creator
This is a followup to my previous post, the official launch of Umi AI!I was really tired when I wrote yesterday's post, so I didn't have the energy to actually discuss Umi AI's unique points. Why bother using Umi? Why not just make your own prompts? What the heck is a 'wildcard syste...

Klok Blogs: I love Isekais! (Pt 2: Soft Isekais)
Hey guys, Klok here! I put off this month's Patreon post in the hopes that Mangadex, the site I use to source my lists for manga reading, would come back online. It did not. I am sad. So, I will write this post while mostly relying on my memory.This is part two in a three-part series focusing on...

Klok Blogs: I love smart readers!
I had a discussion on Discord a few weeks ago. The topic involved a bunch of plot points in The Last Precursor, and how a few readers were trying to guess events that might happen in the future.That discussion inspired today's post. I have written before about Reader Levels, which I included in ...
Klok Blogs: The current mysteries of The Last Precursor!
Hey guys! TLP and Cryopod are both pretty long. For my sake, as well as yours, I thought it would be cool if I did a short little writeup about TLP for today's post, focusing on some currently running mysteries in the story. Cryopod's mysteries are much more involved, so I will probably writ...

Klok Blog: Should I rewrite Cryopod Refresh? (The answer may surprise you!)
Hey all, Klok here! I know I just posted the start of my Klok Blogging schedule, but it occurred to me that having this post ready BEFORE I got back to writing Cryopod this week would be a good idea. Then I can link it in those posts....Ahem.(Quick TL:DR - I will NOT rewrite Cryopod Refresh. The pos...
Cryopod's Final Artwork (And the new Blog Posting Schedule!)
Hey everyone, Klok here. This post is all about my new blog-posting schedule. As many of you may know, I've decided to drop MWTX for art. It seemed like his art wasn't that popular, and I'm too poor now to keep paying him what I was before. I definitely wish him the best of luck, and to ...
