Author's Note

Hello, everyone! Thank you for reading my story. It really means a lot to me.

This is my first official novel. I've been writing stories since I was a child, but I never actually finished most of them. I only ever completed one story, and that was rushed and ended after less than ten chapters. Back then, I used to make up the story as I went along, so the plot was messy and chaotic. I'd get bored of them after a few weeks because I had no idea how to continue the story. I planned absolutely nothing, so I'd sit down to write and become frustrated because nothing would come to mind, so I just abandoned them and went on to a different project. But now, I plan every little detail so that I can write more efficiently, and I complete the entire novel before uploading even one chapter.

As some may already know, HellBorn began as a comic. I wrote the script for it three years ago, but the planning began much earlier than that, when I was about 13. I drew and uploaded it for three years until I realised the story needed major improvement. I wasn't enjoying creating it anymore, so I cancelled it. I decided to rework the plot and make it into a novel. This is the first book of that novel. There are two books in the series.

HellBorn is pretty dark. There are themes which could be triggering to some, such as abuse, suicide and murder. Mental illness is also a major theme, and it's a topic that means a lot to me. As a person who suffers from psychosis, anxiety and depression, I wanted to address this is my works, so a lot of my stories feature some kind of mental struggle that the characters must overcome. On an unrelated note, I think it best to warn people that this story, as well as all my stories, heavily feature LGBT characters and themes. This story also has mentions of mpreg, but it's not a major part of the novel. It's definitely not for fetish purposes or anything like that. I just wanted to have my same sex couples having children of their own who are biologically both of theirs. I've always been a little saddened that same sex couples, especially when they're both men, are unable to enjoy the same types of family moments as straight couples can, such as scans and feeling the baby kick for the first time. I wanted my characters to have those experiences, even if it's not directly shown in the actual story.

Anyway, enough of my ramblings. I'll let you get onto the actual story now. Once again, thank you so much for reading my novel. I hope you enjoy reading it just as much as I've enjoyed writing it.
