EDIT: Heard on the concerns regarding making the aesthetics of the series more fantasy! Keep the feedback coming. I need to talk to the interested publishers and adapters and the like, but I'll see about at least toning down the fantasy by like 50% hahaha
Hey all! For some reason this file just will not download at hi-rex despite the studio uploading it as such, so this is gonna have to be enjoyed "at a distance". I'll fix that if I can at a later point!

2024-05-27 17:49:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys! First, yes there IS a new chapter in this release! I just decided I agreed with a number of the comments from the last leak that the previous chapters worked better as one, so I've combined the (and added a little to them) for 14 v2. This chapter 15 is a totally new and hefty chunk of writing that has us getting into the meat of this Book 3 ;)
Second, sorry this is late in the day! I had a business trip last weekend and I spent Mon to Wed catching up o...

2024-05-14 12:50:28 +0000 UTC View PostTwo ultra-short chapters meant to wrap up this initial early-book conflict! Now we head into the high-octane stuff.
Also I 100% lost the thread on Chapter 15. Had a really good idea and it just didn't come together in the way I wanted it to in the draft, so a fleshed-out version of that will be the next thing you guys get I think. Need to sit on it and come back to it to find where I was trying to go with it initially. Yay the wonders of writing with AD...

2024-04-30 13:48:07 +0000 UTC View PostSo this is where I was planning to end the chapter from the start, but now that I've reached it I think it needs more. So, as much of a copout as it is, look forward to a v2 as soon as I figure out where that new ending point is.
Also sorry this one is slow. I AM working on it every day, but as you guys can hopefully imagine this is probably the most delicate emotional interaction of the series so far, and I really REALLY need to get it at least MOSTLY right on ...

Yall wanted more non-squad art, and I'm working on delivering that! Here's one for starters!
Obviously there are some canon elements that are different about this Dent, like having only 4 externals rather than 8, but we are having to simplify some things as we dig deeper into this secret project development sorryyyy!
Also, still grinding at Chapter 13, though it's proving tricky to get the conversation right, so it may not be out tomorrow sorry! Gonna do my best though!

we wanted to make sure there was a cute pin in with the Stormweaver pin project we have coming later this year!
what should we name him?
2024-04-24 13:41:44 +0000 UTC View PostDidn't love the wrap, so here's the new ending! I'll try to remember to include the v2 in with Chapter 13, btu since this was only a few hundred words of editing I didn't think it needed its own upload.

Obviously the earliest possible days, but I've been wanted to partner with my friend Ian at Geek Orthodox for LITERALLY 5+ years, and we're finally making it happen!
Hope this gets a few of you psyched!

In 2020, right after Iron Prince dropped, I had a pretty cool idea for a progression fantasy that I think I may explore at some point in the future, just as a change of pace. Maybe a serial, but more likely a weird book just to see wha...

2024-04-16 14:38:09 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys. Quick one because I feel like shit. I caught something nasty on the way home from family time in Montana, and there's no way I'm finishing Chapter 12 in time for Friday, I'm sorry. I'm going to work on getting back on my feet asap, and do my best to get the conversation with gramps out by Monday. If I can't, then this will be the first 3-week chapter gap, for which you have my apologies. There were only 2 for Book 2 I believe, and I was really hoping not to have any for book 3.

Final! Let me know what you guys think!
Also this scene dump happening Friday is even bigger than I expected. There's a new ending to the Viv visit, a 'local' scene after that, then two separate added scenes from other perspectives I think are going to add some good and fun story value.
Then... we begin!

Hey yall! First, check out this initial sketch for a really cool reimagining of Dent and Kestrel, from Aleksandra Alekseeva! If this turns out as well as I think it will, there will be more to come!
Second, and more importantly, a heads up about the next grouping of chapters, as there's going to be a writing split that may confuse people. On Friday, I will be dropping Chapter 9 v2 and Chapter 10 but each of them will be including a portion of the finished Chapter 9 v1 I dropped...
