The serial fiction series Mere Immortal has been publishing for over six months now. Season One is nearing its final story arc, and there have been many twists and turns along the way.
It has been a challenge sticking to weekly releases, and a few times I’ve had to take breaks. But I’m happy that I decided to write my first serial. I learned a lot, and soon I’ll have a post explaining my process and what I learned about writing a web novel.

What is Mere Immortal?
In 2022, a meteor strikes Earth, leaving behind mysterious matter that can cure diseases and grant immortality. Eight individuals undergo a procedure to become immortal, but two children are killed during the experiment, and the government forces the scientist to destroy the remaining matter. Two decades later, only six immortals remain. Until one is murdered by an anti-immortal activist named Zella. The world is in shock at the death of one of the test subjects they thought to be fully immortal. And now enemies of America’s evil regime, the Cover Operations Group, know that there is indeed a way to kill an immortal.
The remaining immortals band together, forming a secret order led by Hubert Quinn. Meanwhile, Zella's anti-immortal group seeks to expose and eliminate the immortals. The story unfolds from the perspectives of Zella and Hubert Quinn, delving into the complexities of morality and blurring the lines between right and wrong.
Mere Immortal is a serial fiction series, where chapters are published each week. At the end of the season, the full volume will be available for purchase.
