      In which he will have to wait until morning, and the townspeople will burn him, and he spends eternity in hell, enduring writer’s block, or what considers hell for him.

      Or he dies from loss of inkblood

          Am sure he will bleed himself to death.

    Still curious where this is going. Is he just dying from blood-loss? Or one things leads to another and Hunter burns another town to the ground.

      Perhaps we’ll find our Damned Author years later, desperately hunting after some undead bounty hunter. 😮

    The art may be simpler, but the story is GLORIOUS!

      The art is simpler, but the art is not simple and fits the story so very well. In my mind the story is everything and the art tells the story superbly. I don’t think the art style Erin uses in Next Town Over would have worked as well on Genevieve. Excellent storytelling!

    I like the townspeople will burn him theory

    So in the end, this is a parable about microtransactions.

    New reader here! Highly enjoyed the story thus far – including this new poor fellow. I ate through your archive in record timing, I think. My compliments to the chef!

    I now realize: The writer and demon keep stressing that it’s only upon death that former’s soul is claimed. In need of ink and now cut, it looks like the demon will have him use his own blood. The writer is eventually but soon going to die of exsanguination. He’ll be able to pen his masterpiece but given the prolific writing and revision we’ve seen him do, it’s going to cost him enough blood to kill him.

      AND, since he’ll be publishing it posthumously, it’ll be a great success! Everyone loves a dead artist!

    Demon: “A light with a life as long as yours, even!”

    Yup. He had this planned all along. Get the writer to sell his entire soul while the demon doesn’t even have to be patient; he strings him up to hand it over sooner than what the writer thought.

    The burning question I have is whether or not he will literally breathe life into Genevieve as he drains his own… wouldn’t that be something.

      And the demon gets what he really wants – a consort made of blood, soul and dark magic?
