Patreon Update 1-22-25 (Patreon)

So, big items. Kickstarter #2 has a landing page up! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/brucesentar/dragons-justice-4-6-special-editions 

RD 3 Ebook is on track for 2/9 after some final edits. The timeline needs a little patching, but that's most of it.

I am just seeing some of the DD 203 Audiobook files get uploaded today. Proofing and scheduling still need to happen and there’s not enough time to get everything done by 2/9 so that’ll come out 3/9.

The recording of the prior books are complete and are with a proofer.

This book was interesting, I usually avoid large time skips. However, I started this series with the promise of an apocalypse and at the pace we were going it was going to be far too many books before said apocalypse. To me, that feels a little like I lied at the start, so I did hurry it along.

Really from the comments, I gleaned that people were just a little antsy for Bran to progress more. Him holding the fruits for a big upgrade at the end made sense from a story and a Bran perspective, however I’m aware that it tends to make Patreon a little disgruntled when the power progression stalls for a bit of the book.

It is an interesting thing I’ve learned in recent books that I’ve written, but I had started along this path and I wasn’t going to back down.

We get to start the Rapture next book after a touch of reintroducing the characters and giving Bran a mission. Excited to have Bran get to be OP as shit against the first wave of the demons and set a course for a better outcome this time.

I felt Bran had gotten too far ahead of his environment and we had some of the other catch up this book and a little more next book while Bran gets to be OP and just level armies before we throw him into more challenging situations.

Next up is Dungeon Diving 204. I have some mixed ideas on where to take this one. Part of me wants to try and rein the story back into an academy setting, yet I know that every academy book will inevitably free itself from its starting point and lose it’s school focus.

Ken also needs some OP time, I’m excited to see him step back on earth, all of the students are to be taken seriously now. But then he needs to get back to adventuring through the dungeon, this time without all of the CID and UG guidance. They’ll have to figure things out a little more on the fly.

We also get some new races and conflicts to become a part of.
