slanting surfaces; unplumbed voids - 23.3 (Patreon)

Chapter wanders through the marshy mists, legs thick with mud and clinging algae, sharpening its claws on slimy rocks.

This week's password is: den

Epub version is also attached, as always!

(Chapter link and password will be at the opening of the posts from now on, like above! Patreon has apparently changed the way they send emails, which has been breaking the way some readers access the chapter, and this should fix it. Let me know if this causes any new problems, or if it doesn't work somehow!)

Arc 23 is well underway now, as is Heather's slightly confused heart. Nothing left to do but seek comfort before the expedition out into the most inhospitable of places, and make sure those safety harnesses and anchors are well cared-for.

But also! I have a little bit of scheduling news: there will be no Katalepsis chapter on the 30th of December. Katalepsis will resume as normal on the 6th of January.

If you read my other story (Necroepilogos) then you've already seen this once, because I'm putting both stories on pause for one week. I've got some serious obligations over Christmas which have completely disrupted my usual editing schedule. I'll still be writing and working like usual! But rather than risk posting a very mangled chapter, I've decided to tap out this week to ensure quality rather than speed. Katalepsis will be back as normal the following week! Thank you for your patience, and, as always, thank you so much for all the support. I could not do any of this without you.So! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, dear readers! I hope you enjoy yours, whatever you're up to, and Heather will be back to shoving her head into a giant Eyeball very soon indeed.
