This week was another challenging one and I’m sad that I only have two chapters to post. These chapters reveal some secrets that were foreshadowed many books ago. In addition, the chapters explore some of the emotional impacts Ruwen’s decisions have created. I’m not completely happy (honestly I never am) with how the chapters wound up, but I’ve run out of time to fiddle with them. I’ll pay attention to your feedback and comments and take them into consideration in the next revision.
Thanks to your support here on Patreon, I am taking time off from work next week to focus on my writing. My hope is to make massive progress before a disruption occurs at the end of this month. I’ll talk more about that in a couple of weeks.
Another reason for the push next week is that I plan to release book six in mid-March. That means the manuscript needs to be done mid-February to allow time for all the proofing. The bad news is I’m only halfway done. That means I need a massive effort to meet my deadlines. Fingers crossed everything goes smoothly.
Speaking of book six, I might have the cover by next week. Assuming it is close to what I’ve pictured, I’ll be able to reveal that soon.
I hope the new year has started out well for you. The cold weather has kept me indoors and I’ve been using the treadmill to try and lose some of these pandemic pounds.
I’ve opened up chapters 30, 31, and 32 to Root.
I’ve opened up chapters 33 and 34 to Harvester.
I’ve added chapters 35 and 36 to Step Master, Blapy’s Favorite, and Divine.
Enjoy!
Your support impacts me every week, but this coming week especially, as I take time off from work to focus on the story. That means the world to me, and I thank you so much for making it possible.
Take care,
AFK

2022-01-14 17:52:14 +0000 UTCThank you! I can't imagine not finishing. We are six books in and I still feel like I did during the first book. But your advice is sound and I will try and find a balance. Thanks again!
