Welcome to the Sharpesvale Chronicles, your #1 source for serial killers, mad scientists, and zombies!

This hugely detailed generational story is narrated by a foul-tempered, sarcastic, bleeding-heart narrator who writes better than you can and constantly gets into postmodern arguments with his own characters.

Expect black humour, random apocalypses, and about a hundred jokes per chapter. Unsafe at any work!

This is probably the fiftieth time I've posted about "fixing" the image hosting problem I've had since the beginning.

I've had my own webhosting for a while now, and I've also had a false memory of uploading all my images there, which in retrospect would have been a Herculean undertaking. What I actually did was upload all the adult images, so I could drop my hosting at the hilariously on-the-nose FileFap. What I'm doing now is slowly, painstakingly downloading all my images from Photobucket, moving them to gruglysims.ca, and re-coding every chapter to point to the new files. It's gonna take a while, but it's also gonna permanently consolidate my stuff at a source I have control over. Meaning? The Chronicles should always be up, either here or at www.gruglysims.ca, with no broken images at at least one of those two places.

We'll see.

I've started migrating the journal to WordPress using my own site, since I'm already using my own hosting for all the images. If you're thinking of starting the story for the first time, or starting it over (how flattering!) you should check it out at the source instead of here at shitty old unreliable LiveJournal - half the time the evil gnomes who run LJ can't even get my images to load correctly.

The new home of Gruglysims!

I'll still be updating my LiveJournal. It just won't ever be the best place to read my updates.

So far I've uploaded the first forty-two chapters. Working on the rest soon; LJ is so old and broken you can't export it at all, so I have to copy out the code for each chapter individually and make whatever alterations are necessary to get it to look good on WordPress. It's not exactly fast, but not exactly tedious. A sort of vaguely uncomfortable medium, I guess.
