Chapter Three of Tiya and Deuce up on Royal Road!

Tier 7 has finished Book Four!

Ten issues of Epilogues finishing things off, and they start on Book Five!

View Post

Tier 7 is into the final arc...

Then onto the epilogues, and the first chapters of Book Five! Fret not for attention, I'm 115 Chapters in on Book Five and moving along nicely.

Also note that when Book Five opens, the Public Chapters will include ALL the Versatile Mage chapters that I helped edit, which number over two thousand. Most of those are behind a Webnovel pay window now, so if you want to save a lot of time, they'll be available!

I started a short story on Royal Road

I started a short story at

Tiya and Deuce

if you all would like to read it. 

It's for the Royal Road magazine contest, and has to satisfy the them of 'uncharted waters'. So, I started the story of Soul Shard Deuce.

It will go for about fifteen chapters? And maybe occasional updates. It would work out in the actual timeline to Book Eight or Nine. 

I will post t...

A full-year subscription gets us over the $1500 limit!

Donations way down for November...

:/  The holiday season grinding on everyone, I'm assuming. Down to $1200 for November, so below the 5 bonus chapters threshold.

They are all still there and waiting for an uptick, however!

Also, I completed Dynamo at 500 Issues + Epilogues, and have started work on Book Five, which has a special bonus for Patreon People when the time comes!

I really wanted The FIrst Week out for Christmas, but Fluffy Goblyn isn't optimistic. It's all written and ready on my end, just ne...

Important Changes to Payment system! Please read!

Hey everyone! 

So, down to business. Patreon now offers 'Subscription billing.' This means that any **new** subscribers/patrons will be charged each month on the date they join, rather than the 1st of the month.


For those of you already with us, nothing will change. Patreon will still charge your subscription amount on the first of the month.


**This will only affect new or returning patrons.**


If you guys have any questions, please...

We hit $1500 mid-month last month, so 5 five bonus chapters on the way for Patreon people!

Let's see how much farther Ael can run in five more chapters now that he can't really cast spells, shall we? :)

Missed out on the $1500 level for September by $200.

No bonus chapters this month. :/  They are all in the queue waiting, however!

The $2000 level raises that level to 10 chapters a month, if my readers need something to shoot for!

But, baby steps first!

We hit the $1500 contribution level for August

Which is one of the goals, so an additional chapter a week.

As this is a Patreon-financed goal, for this goal it will be a Patreon-only contribution. What I'm going to do is post Five Chapters per month from the First Decade, the portion that precedes books Three and Four, following Aelryinth as he goes through his own story recovering from the Curse that started this whole process, getting back to full strength, and heading back home while finding out what his Soul Shards have been up ...

Leahcim pointed out something in The Human Race Ch. 154...

So I had to go and quick edit something into it.

To wit, the first guy to receive Raise the Dead is Sergeant Mulligan, dying due to Axiom treachery and returned to life.

So, 'taking a Mulligan' took on a whole new meaning after they found out the name of the first guy to return from the dead...

So I played some Diablo Immortal...

I'm an old Diablo fan.  The original game, I played all the allowable classes up to 38 or so. Diablo2... I gave up when I couldn't get my Barbarian past the three honor guards on Nightmare, and I wasn't willing to grind the hours and hours needed for the right gear.

Diablo3 I've got 1200 levels in, and it's an easy way to blow off some mindless hours of clicking. Even with a few hours, you can level a few times, make progress, and improve a character, clearly able to plot out what ...

Late Addition to things...

Go up out of the folder you have permission to, and you'll see a list of all the folders and tiers. At the bottom of them is the Public Folder, for chapters released on Royal Road.

Chapter 500 of the Human Race is in the appropriate folder in the Public Folder. You can read it there, or I am posting it on The Human Race on Royal Road.

Hey Everyone! Bonus chapters will be tomorrow.

93aa and 93b. They'll pop up in the folder of posted chapters. You get them tomorrow because Royal Road gets them Thursday.

No extra chap on Friday, to balance things out.

Bonus chapter 90a in folders!

Comes in the time period before the Assessments. Tier 1 will get theirs tonight.

Short, sweet, Dealer's first phone call from Sama.

Your Friday Bonus chapters for Feb/4 are in the Public Folders, Patrons mine!

They will be released on Royal Road tomorrow, so you are getting them today.

We've hit the First Goalpost! Thank you, everyone!

The Patreon has hit $1000 per month devoted, which means extra stuff! Thank you to everyone who is supporting us!

There will be one extra chapter released on Friday as long as the monthly donation level is above $1000, starting with Friday the 21st.

Also, it was pointed out to me that noon is VERY popular time for a lot of novels to update, which means Dynamo is hereblinkgone on the updated novels list on Royal Road. With that in mind, we'll be moving the normal release date on Ro...

Hi Everyone! I did another goof on the story...

For those of +15 chapters or more ahead, there was something in the story that I missed covering, which I've written up as two bonus chapters. 

So, there's a 59A and 59B in your folders now you have to go back and read. They'll be bonused to everyone else and to RR in time, too.

First Day of Winter. 4 days before Christmas.

Feels kinda weird from an intellectual standpoint, and I'm sure everyone is enjoying it, especially those of you from below the equator celebrating the start of summer :)

Another All Patrons post!

I just finished writing the Gratuitous Final Stats chapter for the end of the novel. You can either read it on Royal Road (it posts at 12:15, 15 minutes after the last chapter), or I am adding it to the Posted on Royal Road Chapter Folder now (seeing as you all are now buried in Dynamo chapters!)

All Patreon People!

The utterly huge spreadsheet that I used to track Traveler all through The Human Race is now in the Published on RR folder (way at the bottom of the main page, NOT in the THR file). It's read-only, and there's something like two dozen pages to it, covering multiple screens.

I am NOT swearing by its accuracy (seriously, updating those is VERY technical!), and especially towards the end I was getting a bit loose on stuff, especially spells. But it let me know where she was at, what she wa...
