November Update (Patreon)
Content
Hey everyone! You might've noticed that I didn't make an update post last month, nor did I take a payment this month. That's mainly cuz I wasn't able to meet my promise and finish the Once-Prince & Wildling chapter. (In fact, I still haven't met that promise.) I do have other writing that I want to share, though, and figure that skipping a month is quite enough 😛
September in Review
- Kikyu — 4,525 (2 chapters)
- Osier High — 1,207 (an extra scene in chapter 4)
September total: 5,732
As for October, I did some draft writing and some editing on old stuff, but didn't release anything new.
November's Writing Plan
This month I'm planning on mostly just working on a new story — one which is nearly entirely plotted out, and will probably end up being somewhere around 10 chapters long, and which I've already written three chapters of — called A Lot of Eggs and One Basket Case. I'll be releasing the first three chapters to y'all today.
One thing to note is that — because of a combination of the sheer number of you, and the wonderful Mercyque — we are now well-past the second Patreon goal and even near the third. The second Patreon goal is for there to be two guaranteed writing days every week, and, while I haven't had a payment yet after having met the goal, I'd like to start doing it anyway. To facilitate this, I'm now tracking my daily writing and will be able to show my daily word counts at the next update. I'll be doing my best to always do 2 writing days every week, and any weeks that I don't hit that mark, I'll make up for in other weeks.
The goal of a writing day, as always, is ~2000 words, which is ~1 chapter, generally.
November Voting
We're gonna do the voting thing now, but I'm mostly gonna just be using it to see what people want to see. I'm not going to make a promise that I'll be able to do another chapter of something specific bcuz I'm not sure I'll be able to uphold that promise. (I guess I can always skip another month's payment, though, if need be.)
Number of votes for each Patron tier:
- Tier Zero ($1) 1
- Tier One ($2) 2
- Tier Two ($5) 3
- Tier Three ($10) 5
- Tier Four ($20) 10
- Tier Five+ ($30+) 15
To explain again for anyone new to this: If you have 3 votes, you could assign two to one story and one to another, or put all three in one story, or spread them between a bunch of stories, etc. You can send me your votes in any way — In the comments on this post, in a PM, through Discord, etc.
Tell me what you want me to work on! Even if I may fail again, I'll do my best to meet your desires!
Thanks 🤍
As always, thank you all for being my patrons. I really, really appreciate you. I always knew it was maybe possible that I could hit numbers like this if I was really lucky, but I never would've expected it, you know? It's really humbling that y'all like my stories enough to stick around like this, even through content droughts and continued failures to finish much.
I hope you all are staying safe and healthy and — god forbid — happy. I know it's a turbulent and scary time, and, well, I guess I'll just keep crossing my fingers for everyone, okay? Take care 🤍
