Hey all!

This week has been a trying one. Do you ever have periods where you wonder what you're doing with your life, and whether you're any good at it after all? It's been one of those for me haha. Some pretty negative feedback on my writing has me in a bit of a tizzy, and I won't lie and say that hasn't affected how this week went for me. 

That said, I've managed about the same amount of progress. I'm not done with the Hades and Hekate scene yet, but I've started on edits and adjustments for Chapter Four nevertheless, and now have the entire first branch of the investigation done (the one where you wander around the marketplace with Pyri). I plan to keep moving forward with Chapter Four while getting the last scene in Chapter Three wrapped up this week.

Additionally, I've started work on the Hekate POV bonus content, which is actually going to be of the scene I'm currently working on, with her hand Hades. I think, for certain PCs, this will be the moment where she is first intrigued by the PC, which could be the foundation for either a friendship or a romance! (Or just an incidental thing that happened once, if you don't end up getting along). 

I'm glad I'm giving the characters more screen time, even if that seems a bit absurd in a game that's already this long. 

Anyhow, that'll be posted on Wednesday, and then I'll be back the following Monday with my last weekly update before the BIP comes out on the 29th. 

I hope you all have a good week. I'm going to spend mine attempting to remind myself that there are plenty of people out there who love FoA, and that not every story is for every person.

Hi! I'm sure it's obvious just by the fact that I am here, but I love your writing, your characters and your stories (including Diaspora). I'm hoping that a little positive reminder will stay with you longer than a negative one. I'm looking forward to Wednesday and I wish you the best :)

Seems like a good time to throw out there that your writing not only helped me get a diagnosis that changed my life for the better, but has also been a major source of comfort for me when everything is blowing up. You can't please everyone, but there are plenty of us here who have been very positively impacted by your work, and I personally am grateful to have found you and your writing.

Thank you both so much; I really do appreciate the support. Sometimes I get tunnelvision, but I really am glad to be doing what I'm doing for people who enjoy it. :)

Hey, dropping by to send you and your writing some love. There was a post last year at some point on one of the IF subreddits that asked what WIPs/sequels readers were looking forward to. At the time, I said FoA was my number 1, because the first draft was almost done and I was so excited to see how everything panned out. Now that the edit is happening, I still feel the same. This story is such a comfort to me. I love that you added in stimming for our characters, I love that your cast is diverse and interesting, and I love the stories you tell with those characters. Truly, I cannot thank you enough for FoA. I can't even remember how many times I have played the first draft through. There are so many things that I adore in your writing, so it's hard to say 'that's it, that's the reason why it resonates with me', but I know it does. So thank you. Your writing makes my brain happy when it forgets how 🥲

Hii, I love your writing, this is actually one of my favorite IF ❤️. It is simply not possible to write or create something that appeals to everyone, we are all too different for that. But please remember that there are people out there who love your writing ❤️

You're all going to make me cry haha. But seriously, thank you so much. I had a rough week in a lot of ways, and I think maybe this was just a bit of a 'last straw' situation, but you've all made me feel a *lot* better. Your support means the world, sincerely. :)
