Updoots and Future Plans!

First off thank you, everyone, for your support! I'm fully moved into my grandmother's old house! No more homelessness! The inheritance included the inconvenience of the remaining balance on the mortgage, and it took some negotiating with the bank. They were nervous about my income being from Patreon since it is unconventional and not well known in such a small rural town, but they finally agreed to let me take over the note as long as payments are made on time.

As those of you who hang out in the discord already know, it's a bit of a fixer-upper. But it's a roof over my head, and the internet access has been sorted out, so now i'm getting back on track with Skyclad!

And on that note, I need yall's help making some decisions. Book One will be wrapped up in a few more chapters. Memorial Day is coming up on Monday, and that's an unplanned coincidence because the chapter this weekend is a battle. I know some will grumble about it not taking place with Morgan, but we really do need to set the stage for the next book which will heavily center around the Deskren War and the actual campaign, while Morgan and friends try to make their way out of the wildlands to help stop the slavers. We'll be going back to Morgan & Company for one last chapter before the end closes out the book.

As for decisions: Book 2 will have a different title than Skyclad, and i'm stuck on the overall name for the series as a whole. I'll be putting up a poll sometime in the next month to see what you guys think of the options, but i wanted to give my patrons and friends time to chime in with ideas. What was originally three outlined books has grown into at least five or six, and possibly more!

So far i have two possible names for the series. "Anvil of Fate" and "Forge of Stories" both seem fitting. But it seemed wrong not to give yall a chance to put some ideas out there too! Just reply here with your suggestions, and i'll save the names for the poll i'll put up here in a couple weeks:)

If this is your main income dont mess with the formula. I'd keep the Skyclad name for branding purposes. You want to grow the audiance and make it as easy as possible to find your work.

Hmmm not sure how I feel about book 1 ending when only half of the stories told so far link back to Morgan. Like zizzzy, you have quite a few chaps about her then her death???? With nothing linking her back to morgan. You have introduced quite a few chars already and most I've already forgotten why should i as a reader care for new ones or even deskran as a whole when half of what has been introduced doesnt link back to the protagonist.
