Update (6th August 2017) and Goal 1 Reached!
Added 2017-08-06 12:56:59 +0000 UTCIt has been a while since I updated so I thought I had better. Basically this has been because of work and medical reasons. But for those who may worry about the latter, don't worry I am not dead (obviously!) and the story will be finished.
Writing has been going, but of course slow due to the circumstances. However I have noticed that despite my belief that I wouldn't get (m)any support on here the amount of patrons has surged and I have reached the first goal listed. I don't surprise easily but honestly you have all taken me aback, and that has helped bolster me a little to see the support and demand for the new story (and in a way that is not negative feedback!). That has really helped with the current situation so to all of you who have pledged (though of course no charged posts have been made thus far) I want to say thank you. Seeing your support really has made a difference.
So today I am officially back to writing full speed now and raring to go! (Hopefully the medical issues ease up a little now). But as promised on the first goal I am now considering creating a Twitter for ease of updates and future rewards for Patrons. Will likely implement those either when I have free time or post-submission of the new story.
Nothing major in this update except to say thank you. Really has made a difference in feeling motivated. So when the story is done, know that each of you helped me to feel motivated to write it.
One final comment. Everyone who has messaged me about the deleted scenes so far has really enjoyed them, so thank you also for that. Hearing your positive impressions of them has also really boosted morale. Glad you liked them and are salivating for more. Mia's worth it, I promise ;)
