Returning to Patreon + Chapter E Cover

Hello, patrons!  I want to apologize profusely for allowing this place to get so quiet lately.  And I wish I had a better excuse than being an absent-minded fool.  What I lack in excuses though, I hope to make up for in content (which, presumably, is what a lot of you are here for).  :)

As you're probably aware, I am on working hiatus with Rain right now.  But what am I working on?  My primary objective right now is writing and drawing the bonus content for Rain - Volume 5.  If you're familiar with any of the previous books, the main draw are the bonus chapters: full-length one-offs which, while not essential to understanding the overall story, do add some context for things and can be fun and informative.  Usually, this is done by presenting some backstory for one (or a few) character(s).

In Chapter A: Ryan, we focused on Rain's childhood when she first came into the care of Fara.

In Chapter B: A Rose by Any Other Name, we were introduced to a younger Maria during her first relationship.

In Chapter C: True Family, we have all the main kids in present day hanging out talking about their family lives, with special emphasis on Ky.

In Chapter D: Before Rain, we focus on the students of St. Hallvard throughout the year before Rain arrived there.

This brings us to now.  Volume 5's Chapter E: Another Kind of Love primarily revolves around Jessica.  With the last two books, I posted a random page from each on the usual comic sites that could promote some excitement without giving away too much.  But there's a lot going on in this one, and I just feel like there's too much to potentially spoil.  So today, I decided to instead showcase the cover page (which may still raise some questions).  ^_^

Going a step even further though, Chapter E is actually pretty short for a bonus chapter.  It focuses on a short scene, does what it needs to do, and then it ends.  So as my second surprise for you today, Volume 5 contains not one but two bonus chapters.  I won't be talking about Chapter F in detail today, but you can expect to hear more and probably see an excerpt for it in the future as well.  ^_^ 

As a side note, I will be sharing this cover page and Chapter F's excerpt publicly as well in the future, but my patrons will get to see it first, and only you folks will see them in color.  :)

Apologies again for letting this go completely unattended for so long (oh god, eight months!?).  You folks are amazing for sticking with me here (I appreciate it more than I can put into words)!  I want to get back to posting something here at least once per week, and with a new book on the way and a new comic in the form of Moonlight Wanderers also coming soon, there's plenty I should have to show.  I'm also tweaking the specifics for a new tier that I'll talk to you about very soon. 

So hopefully, I'll get this place bustling again real soon.  Thank you again for being such amazing folks, and I hope you have a lovely day.  ^_^
