Discord Server and Plans

As of now I have a Discord server, if you want to chat about the story.

The invite link is here: Discord

I haven’t added special perks for Patreon members yet, but I’ll probably get around to that sooner rather than later.

FUTURE PLANS

I have at least three books worth of stuff planned for Neophyte World Builder, but the pace will slow. Current plans are...

Move to 3/week posting. This will only be done once Patreon is 10 chapters ahead of RR release.
Finish Book 1. This will wrap up the Tastka arc and tie up some loose ends with the Orpheus metaplot, to launch us into more high stakes stuff. Currently, the Admin has managed to keep head above water enough to never be in real danger. This story isn’t about big fights or mortal danger, but the stakes will go up.
Take a short(1 week?) break before starting Book 2. I’ll probably post some bonus Patreon-only chapters so you’ll all have something to read.
Possibly stub for KU - this will be a while later, and Patreon subscribers will probably get some Patreon-only content, if I do this. I may just release ‘wide’ over Kobo and Kindle, which doesn’t require stubbing.
Second serial. I may not have the focus to do a second serial. If I can get it off the ground you’ll get preview chapters and advance chapters here.
More Tiers. If I can increase the buffer I’ll offer some higher tiers with goodies, but I’m comfortable with the $5 tier right now. If I add something bigger I want it to be something that seems worth the money. If I get the second serial going, I may make single-serial Tiers that are cheaper, and a combined ‘get everything’ Tier that’s for both. Point is, the $5 Tier isn’t going anywhere.
