Writing Schedule and Christmas Prep
Added 2017-12-20 05:14:36 +0000 UTCOnly 1 chapter today, and it sorta ended like a filler chapter, but... well, I have my reasons.
Wednesday: 3
Thursday: 1
Friday: 1
Saturday: 3
Sunday: 3
Also! There will be... 3 big announcements coming on Christmas? Unfortunately, don't expect extra chapters, those are going to RR. I have no buffer chapters for you. But I think you'll like some of the things I have to announce.
I've been pretty bad about keeping up with the promises at the upper end of the donations and goals, and I'll be reworking them as well. But I'd like to hear from you guys things you would be interested in receiving. I really appreciate the support, and would love to give back some to show how much I appreciate it.
I can see individually how much money each of you has given me, and it really means a lot to see how much you care about this story. It's frustrating IRL to talk to some people who just don't get what I'm doing, and it's nice to feel supported here.
Anyways, happy reading! Just... 3 more months until the 1 year anniversary? Oh god, I started as such a bad writer, hahaha.

Puddles you are doing a great job! Remember we are all giving you donations for you to be you. Don't ever feel obligated or pressures by the donators. How you want to run things is how you should run them.

2017-12-20 17:16:36 +0000 UTCYes, Puddles don;t burn-out and don't keep investing in too many failed characters.

2017-12-20 16:47:21 +0000 UTCYes haha RRL is a great website but a lot of people there don't understand how much work goes into a story and only know how to complain. But great website to preview an author and story and come here for more right? I mean it's how I found this story :)

2017-12-20 16:43:18 +0000 UTCI think it's worth mentioning that the system where you have a bulk of chapters available here but not on RRL is a premium incentive to be a Patreon supporter. I don't pledge to most authors because if I'm only a chapter or two ahead it doesn't feel that it's worth it. For me you don't really have to do anything else to make the higher tiers worthwhile, but I would appreciate a Q&A every month or so. Also, I hope you will stop worrying about the amount of chapters. Christmas is around the corner, only write the amount of chapters that wont make you miss the celebrations.

2017-12-20 16:42:37 +0000 UTCM8 I see a great story here and an author that is going somewhere ^_^ you'll have my support :) just wanna say though, don't worry about releases as much as making sure you don't burn yourself out or rush the story and lose quality. You haven't lost any quality in your writing despite your speed :) but just wanted to make that statement that if you ever feel like you are rushing, slow down and screw release dates. And if someone doesn't understand that good things take time then screw them too haha. Anyways good work.

2017-12-20 16:40:16 +0000 UTCPuddles, this is IRL. We are not fictional. Anyone outside this group are people who will either get in or stay out. The ones who stay out are not in your RL - we are. Welcome to your RL group of friends, clients and consumers of your work... maybe even some fans. Ultimately, we are paying for you to entertain us. So, keep dancing, try to occasionally shit some brilliance and enjoy our applause when you do good (Shal World Arc). Also, we don't really care about the bulk of RRL readers: those are the freeloaders and it's only a feeder mechanism to bring them here in search of more fun.

2017-12-20 12:13:18 +0000 UTCI would love some chapters from other pov's like you did with simon, maybe some from donnytown ? viewing how it went when ghosthound went missing, the choas and confusion maybe, that would be nice Also, you are an amazing writer!, i've been following you since when u were writing tower, its been a jolly good ride
2017-12-20 12:02:14 +0000 UTCWhile I would certainly encourage Puddles to publish his works, they need to pass through a professional editor first. I hope it's a long-term project :) The way I see it, supporting this Patreon is a good first step into making this possible.

2017-12-20 07:46:13 +0000 UTCFirst comment here. Just wanted to say I donate for the great writing. All I ask is don't burn out, keep the story going and release as many chapters as you can.
2017-12-20 06:28:49 +0000 UTCIf i time travelled back in time to invest in bitcoins, this story is what i would miss the most.

2017-12-20 05:58:14 +0000 UTCPublish on Amazon and you could supplement your income and expand your readership. i am thinking at least 4 books worth here if not more.

2017-12-20 05:42:54 +0000 UTCI have definitely seen an improvement in your writing style, keep it up! The skills can have images right? Why not set up a higher tier on Patreon and hire an artist to create the likeness of some of Randidly's skills? I would definitely pay for a poster of an imagining of The Spears Advances, Ash Trails or Phantom's Embrace. Even a shirt if it's really good.
