Update, announcement, future plans

You may have noticed that the Carnival story is building towards it's finale. I had planned to stretch it out longer but I honestly felt that it was getting stale. I had also written myself into a corner with the system allowing for exponential growth so I'm working on the final section of the story. There is a ways to go yet but the final chapters should be released here in the new year at the latest.
So what does the future hold for my scribbling?
At the end of the month I will pause payments until I'm in a position to launch my next series. If Carnival hasn't ended by then I'll continue to release the chapters for paid subs until it's complete.
I'm very excited about the new story. In addition to writing a chapter of Carnival each day I've also written nearly 40k words of the new story since last Sunday. I anticipate it being in a position to launch properly on here and on RR sometime towards the end of January. I need a cover and a much deeper backlog before I am happy to commit to a release schedule. I haven't even written a blurb yet but I've got a third of a novel written in less than a week so the backlog and blurb should come together before Christmas!
When I pause charges at new years I'll also be changing the Patreon tier system. I'll add a $1 tier, $5 will be two weeks advanced chapters of the new story and $10 will be 4 weeks early access. I might stick some crazy tiers on the top for anyone with more money than sense that will offer chats and character/story idea suggestions.
I'll also release the early drafts of the chapters for the new story that will be dumped on the first day of the RR launch with the first one going up in a few minutes and available to anyone. I really hope you enjoy it as much as I'm loving writing it. The working title is The War Of Six Souls. It's a gritty isekai story written in first person POV.
Hope you'll stick around and have a great Christmas and New Years break! All the best!
Chris
