2025-09-09 15:42:49 +0000 UTCThank you so much and thank you for the support here on Patreon!! I will definitely be writing more books after Nova Roma. I have a whole new series burning in the back of my head that I'm super excited to write, and then after that I might do a standalone book in either the Nova Roma world or the Jake's Magical Market world. Not sure yet!

2025-09-09 15:13:53 +0000 UTCWhat I will probably do is finish my first big edit (which will take a few months for both books) and then send out the complete books to Patreon supporters in their entirety. That way you don't have to read one chapter at a time and I also can't really filter through all the comments/feedback chapter by chapter very easily with how my process works. I prefer getting it all at once when someone has completed the entire book so I know they saw the entire story before pointing out flaws/issues/giving feedback.

2025-09-09 15:12:08 +0000 UTCThere are no words that can express the level of happiness I am feeling right now. I howled like a wild beast. I hope and pray that you’ll continue writing books even after Nova Roma ends.

2025-09-09 15:09:41 +0000 UTCJ.R., only the birth of my three children and wedding can overcome the happiness I feel right now. So looking forward to next year now :D
