"Entitas ipsa involvit aptitudinem ad extorquendum certum assensum."
That's fancy Latin for something. The theory is that some Patreon readers might not click on this post. They'll just see the pre-order bit and thing 'oh, pirateaba is working on Gravesong Book 2 like I thought' and skip over the actual reading. Just like people who don't want to read Author's Notes, which is perfectly fine.
In which case I've got them and they'll not realize the pre-orde...

I FORGOT TO WRITE A SCENE. I have written and added it. Few hundred words.
Refresh the chapter or scroll to the end if you've read it already. This is all. It's small...but important.

The last interlude...well, maybe. Are they even really interludes? I dunno. Get me a better word and I won't use it because I've used 'interlude' for 9 volumes. Hope you enjoy! Poll's out. Better vote. (22,000 Words)

This is the poll of ‘the’. Because it needs a stupid theme and this is what I have. But lest you think I’m being silly—I am. And I am also telling you something.
Gather up. Sit down. Have a drink. Not the alcohol. Not yet. Maybe coffee. Listen.
We’ve had a nice Volume 9, haven’t we? After Volume 8, the volume where the latter half was all movement and action and so much outlining and planning—I am proud of it, but that was an intense Volume 8, wasn't it?

I feel like the virus is still hitting people. I'm still sick. Probably a cold in my case but here's my last chapter before break! It's short, but hopefully it keeps you for a week!

I am hungry. So I post the chapter and then can relax and eat. I feel like there might be something Pavlovian about all this but I think it works. Plus, I get snack breaks if I need them. Lunch, dinner, too. Actually, I should probably just have made food before posting but here we are. (36,700 Words)

Yeah, I may be sick because these are some weird options. Let me tell you just enough to make your choosing hard.
Kingdom of Gnolls TTRPG (Background and setting) - So the idea is a tabletop setting you can play a board game in. This would just be me writing a hook to a tabletop adventure. I have some books I’d try to copy from. I doubt I’d do statblocks, but I’d write out as much as I can in a single update. With the ‘experimental’ stuff, I’m jus...

I’m not late. I’m just…okay, I forgot the poll, and I was working on Volume 1. So here’s a flash-poll for probably Tuesday’s chapter? I dunno, we’ll see.
I’m tossing in some weird options here because…I want to offer them. Ask for the $10+ spoilers for context or just guess.

I have completed my chapter. After the time I took off to finish and edit it--it is ready. There are two parts though I consider it one 'chapter'. It is broken up due to length.
Part 1: 37932 words.
Part 2: 37115 words.
I am sick. I am going to rest, and I hope it is worth the wait. See you later.

I think I've done this less than ten times so far, for big chapters, and for bad ones. And that is invoking my right to delay updating the story because the chapter is not ready.
The simple truth is that it isn't good enough. I have 'today', which is the day in which I post to edit. But I cannot see a way in 8 hours where I'd be able to fix all the issues in the part that is written--and finish writing what I have planned.
As it is, I would release a mediocre chapter at best...

I'm back...just in time to go on my monthly break! No, but I have been working hard. Here's a chapter and wish me lots of rest! Editing...is hard work. But I edit every chapter now which is good. The 1st draft of this one wasn't the best. (29,300 Words)

Hello again. You want context? This is context. I also forgot to do at least 2 food POV's which I might tie into next chapter. Centaur food. Anyways, enjoy! Chapter out in an hour or less I think.
Orjin's War - This is one of two action-based narratives. But it’s not all about war. Pomle has been in the background a while and if it doesn’t win the poll…it might be for more time.

I have come bearing polls! Vote and wait for that chapter...these polls are competitive. I remember when I had like 23 votes total. How times change.
Poll ends on Saturday. Also, Book 9 is up for preorder! I'm a bit scattered today. Back to work on the chapter!
