A glimpse into the future

Good evening my dear patrons. I have a plethora of projects planned, some of which I'm currently working on right now. Though I cannot offer exact titles and a synopsis for the time being for most of these projects, I still wish to show you a list of things you can expect from me in the future. Some of the stories on this list are going to arrive sooner, while others will make their debut later. What do they all have in common? They excite the spots out of my cheetah self!

So, here is what I plan to improve my portfolio with:

Illustrated stories

At the moment, I'm really digging these illustrated stories. It feels very special to me, to be able to capture a pivotal moment of a story in a painting. It can either bring color to the enrapturing fantasy the story already had conjured in your mind, or it can give your imagination a clear representation of details/character features that you might have missed during the initial read. 

Comic collaboration with The_Secret_Cave

The first comic I did with Secret Cave called Hidden Desires was a resounding success. Lots of people liked it, but few know the struggle of getting those done. Holy crap, I will never underestimate the speech bubbles in comics ever again, and how carefully you need to choose your words to fit a designated space. The next comic we have in store is going to be available to everybody, but after that, we wish to do a Patreon governed by the same "Early access" rule as my current Patreon. Paying patrons get an early view of the goods, while everybody else savors them at a later time. It's the best way we can keep churning out these comics regularly while making sure nobody gets left out. 

Bonus content for my existing novels

These were a bit tricky to handle for me, but in the end, I decided that I do want my supporters to get something extra that the rest of the world can't. These will be available for the 40$ tier pledges! Before you start thinking how unfair this is, keep in mind that it is called "bonus content" for a reason. It doesn't influence the plot of the novel in any shape or form. Rather, what this bonus content refers to are short stories done in the same universe, and/or artworks/illustrations. This type of content is left to my discretion, for again, it's just an added bonus. Consider it very similar to the deluxe version of a game. The game is the same, but the deluxe version buyer just gets additional cosmetic stuff that doesn't give them an in-game advantage. 

Novels

I really love writing novels, but they are soooo time-consuming! I will try my best to keep at least two of these going at the same time, but my current plan is to finish "Fated scales" followed by "Where Snow Never Melts" as far as personal projects go. I also have a commissioned novel in the works featuring an anthro dragon protagonist in a rather futuristic/dystopian setting, which I plan to finish and post it in full before the end of this year. 

Rewriting/improving orphaned story commissions

I have waaaaaaaaay too many of those lying around, stories with very promising plots/characters that enthusiastic commissioners gave me plenty of creative freedom, promising they will come back for sequels. They didn't return, of course, but for some of these stories, I had spent as much time building their world as I spent writing the actual story. Most, if not all of these stories, range in the 80 to 90% creative freedom when it came to writing them, which is why I wish to slowly make them mine by reinventing their characters, rewriting certain segments, writing additional content, and so forth.
