Syl Break Update
Added 2025-02-16 07:40:25 +0000 UTCTLDR:
Syl paused until March 17th.
Bookbound Bunny continuing.
Billing paused for 1 month.
Please Note: It's come to my attention that you cannot upgrade your pledge during a billing pause.
Had two people reach out to me about buying the $5 tier to read 10 chapters ahead and then being unable to upgrade to the $10 tier.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
Hey everyone, I hope you're having a great weekend.
First, thank you so much for the overwhelming support in the poll. Frankly, I was a little afraid to even put it up and thought there would be a lot of backlash, but it was entirely the opposite. Thank you!
Many of you suggested I don't pause the billing during my break, and while I'm grateful for that, it wouldn't sit well with me. There's no opt-in/opt-out, and I don't want anyone silently disagreeing with the comments suggesting I do so to feel slighted.
As mentioned before, Bookbound Bunny will continue to post during this break. Saw some people still asking about it, so I thought I'd reiterate it.
In the future, I'll give far more notice if I plan to take any breaks and for much shorter periods (I'll probably take a one-week break from posting BBB between Books 1 and 2, for example, but keep Syl 4 going if that makes sense.)
So, I hit the pause button today, which means billing is paused until March 16th. Here's the screenshot:
Which means: Syl will return on Monday, March 17th, and the start of Book 4! Which, for some behind-the-scenes info, was originally the midway point of Book 3 in my original head planning. Oops.
Special thanks to all of you who have already preordered Book 2; it blew my mind to see Syl 2 rise in the ranks of preorders. Also, just because I saw this getting asked, the physical and audiobook will also be released on April 7th but are not available for preorder; unfortunately, that's just how Amazon works.
So yeah, that about wraps everything up. Thank you so, so much for the support.

2025-02-16 13:58:56 +0000 UTCYeah, for some reason, bbb just doesn’t interest me like syl does. But then, jonathan brooks is a prolific author, and he has some banging books, and others i find just wiff.

2025-02-16 12:54:34 +0000 UTCDude, you do know we don’t need a screenshot proving you’ve paused billing, right? Otherwise, you’ve got some damage you need to look at. And you do know that breaks between books isn’t that unusual? You could even say upfront, that going forward, you’ll officially be taking a break between each book release. Just announce the upcoming ending of a book and then take a month long break.

2025-02-16 12:52:47 +0000 UTCHah tricked me into thinking this was another Lily chappy! I was excited to see if Arakil managed to gather extra mana lol! Have a good break from Syl and thank you for pausing Billing while continuing with BBB :)

2025-02-16 12:46:33 +0000 UTCDamn that must be nice... I just moved into my mother's flat with a mate recently because she's taking care of her parents at her home. And I am sitting here probably hundreds of books of my own and the only dedicated bookshelf in this room is full already lmao!! One of the big reasons I read online, not enough space anymore at home XD

2025-02-16 10:38:56 +0000 UTCI’m waiting for the physical release. I’ve got my own bookshelf now, and (while full) it can certainly store a few more good stories :)

2025-02-16 08:48:14 +0000 UTCHaha very true, but not everyone is reading Bunny and there's definitely some people only here for Syl. It turns back on automatically, so no worries there! Thank you.

2025-02-16 08:01:19 +0000 UTCI'm not too sure anyone would have been very upset without the billing pause. You would still be providing the service everyone signed up for, which is afvance chapters for your stories. Bookbind Bunny is included in that category! But, easing your conscience is understandable, and if you wanna pause billing, that's entirely your choice. Just make sure you don't forget to switch it back on! Lol
