This is not a chapter - 28 August 2022 (Patreon)

Please note this post does not announce a chapter.

Why, to think otherwise is utterly ridiculous.

Can you only think about such an improbable scenario, dear riders?

Me? Writing the colossal number of 45,000 words during August, one month not known to be particularly cold?

No, this number was absolutely drawn randomly.

No, your imagination is working too feverishly. Must be the hot weather, no doubt.

Anyway, I will take a short break, then go write a chapter of The odds were never in my favour.

Of course, before writing this post, the betas have not been warned that they absolutely don't have any work to do for September.

Now we're going to speak in the file below of this fabulous animal I love, the marmot.

What is not to love about this fabulous animal? The fur is superb, its first reflex when you dine in altitude is to imitate you and eat a lot of herbs and other food, while whistling when vultures and eagle are in sight.

Marmot are truly some of the cutest creatures on this planet.

Ahem.

Enjoy.
