I am of the opinion that this recent rough Chapter 6 of Stormweaver is possibly the worst chapter I've ever written. which is okay. that's what draft and writing roughs is for, and I wasn't going to NOT show it to you cause I didn't like it.

in fact, I've had an idea for a heavy rework 6 that I think (at least right now) is going to be so much better, and I'm psyched for it, which is awesome cause I usually hate cutting out writing since I prefer to move forward. this rethink is going to cover some holes I'm seeing on rereads (many echoed in your comments on Reddit) and I think will make the impact of moving into combat a lot better.

I'm also kinda excited to show you guys how drastically writing can change over the course of a creative period, as I've done 2nd versions before, but never what is basically a full rework!

looking forward to your thoughts! I'm gonna TRY to get it out Friday, but it's my birthday tomorrow (so I'm not working) and Amanda, Arro, and I going to the Adirondacks for a vaca weekend with friends, so I'll probably we working little on Sat/Sun (yes, I do usually work through the weekend haha).

regardless, looking forward to seeing what you guys think of the rewrite when it drops! i'm genuienly excited to cut this chapter out and remold it hahaha

I don't talk for no-one else. But I'll tell you that I don't care how bad you (or others) think it is. I'm here to read what you write, not bitch/crit/improve-with-my-two-cents about it (unless requested). And I appreciate that you put it out here even when you're not happy with it. All. About. The Growth. Happy cakeday.

Cynthia L.Lara

Love your candid response and your vulnerability in changing the upcoming chapter. It's your work in progress and I love it!! Have a beautiful happy birthday and a great weekend. Much love going your way.

Dougie Mitchell

Nice, anytime you've did a new version it has been much enhanced so i'm kinda stoked for what you've come up with 👍

Brandon King

First time I've ever really gotten to see inside the writing process like this. Greatly appreciate all of it.

Kory Leach

Happy birthday, enjoy the weekend away. Hopefully the Gatecrasher isn’t knocking!

Brandon King

Bro you've had me on pins/needles this week! 😂 re-listened to both books since Monday. Enjoying this as much as Red Rising. Hope the Bday went well!!

Maria Klein

First of all happy birthday! I always love reading a reworked chapter. It’s important to remember you lean more from failure than from success. I’m looking forward to see what you do with it!

Maria Klein

I’m listening to the books again right now 😂

Jordan Clark

happy birthday! Relistening to the series I was thinking of all the times we see Kestral talking to Dent and then I had the thought that if Shido and the devices its effected are progressing faster and showing higher rank qualities like helms earlier in the ranks, does that mean the devices AI or consciousness will awaken earlier as well? And does the S rank growth effect the limit of how smart Shido will be?

Maria Klein

I enjoy a lot of what’s written about Rei’s grandfather and of course the first date. You?

Brandon King

Grant's back story/catharsis and Rei's subsequent trust of Grant and Cash. They truly became a team there, Chills. And REI v Aria 1 & 2..

Melchisedec Bailey

This Patreon is starting to look like the next one to cut ngl.

Nikola Vadim

There is zero requirement to air your personal grievances with an author on their own public forum.

Maria Klein

Yes! That is a good part. I have no problems admitting that I cry every time I listen to it. The story so far with Reí his grandpa and sister has me on pins and needles. Reí thinks the whole family is trash but his grandpa and sister care about him and want him. I’m dying to see how it all unfolds!

Thomas Lelliott

Why? Because the author literally added a rough draft and then state that they are rewriting it so WE have a better experience? Come off it. He deserves better than your disdain.

Melchisedec Bailey

Would you rather I just quietly cut this patreon? Would you rather I not air a grievance? I'm sure the author that either supplements an income or has this as their entire income would probably appreciate the fact that I'm letting him know that delay after delay is starting to get old, and I'm not infinity patient. A grievance that I know for sure others share. You ever been to a class where the professor says "If you have a question, you're probably not the only one with that question, so raise your hand." Same type of thing here. And maybe those people don't have the confidence to express themselves thanks to people such as yourself. So before you berate me for remembering that patreon is actually a financial transaction, maybe ask yourself if the creator is holding up their end of the bargin?

Wraithmarked Creative

Hi there! We will certainly be sad to see you go, but it's also important for us to highlight that we say at the very start that the average chapter will release every 1 to 2 weeks, though there may be occasional delays. While we know that isn't the experience other authors provide on other patreons, that is the pace at which Bryce writes, which is why we are very clear about it from the top. If you aren't satisfied with that, we totally understand, and wish you the best of luck!

JD Hopkins

I cut it for at least three months, read and catch up, then unsub. I am supporting the author as much as he's putting into the book, is the way I see it.
