MBGSP Chpt 110-112

I hope everyone is having a good weekend! Here's chapters 110-112 of My Big Goblin Space Program

Chapter 110 - The Missing Beatle

The first thing Armstrong did on landing was press-gang several Huntsville goblins into the secretive service to make sure I had ample protection. The swamp had long-since proven to be a hostile environment—maybe even more-so than the badlands. We hadn’t conquered it so much as mitigated it, and we’d still only explored a small part of the ...

Update on War Horses advanced chapters

Hello, everyone!

With the newest War Horses book coming out on Kindle Unlimited at launch on November 20, it means I must remove the advanced chapters for Grand Melee from the Patreon.

They will, instead, be replaced with advanced chapters from the next book in the series: The Sunstone Imperative

This won't be a one-and-done dump. The chapters will come 3 per week until we reach the current level of advance chapters so that I have time to review and edit them prior to postin...

Two of Knaves chpt 101

I hope everyone is having a good weekend! Here's the latest advance chapter for Two of Knaves.

Chapter 101 - Muscle Memory

“No, no. Resist. Align your thoughts and present a tempered barrier. Invite the attack, then perform the reading.”

I sat cross-legged on the table in The Iron Tap, Daggertongue’s favored pub. His demon familiar slid across the tiles, bubbling and glaring with eyes that constantly ...

MBGSP Chpt 107-109

Welcome to the next update!

Chapter 108 can be considered something of a soft ending for book 2, though it's likely that the actual book 2 will end somewhere closer to chapter 116 for consistency of length with the first book.

I hope ya'll enjoy!

Chapter 107 - Birds of a Feather

<Your tribe has increased to 922 members>

So, what do you do when you successfully hunt a whistler near the end of the Stampede? You p...

MBGSP Chpt 106

It's coming up a bit late, but here it is! We're closing in on the end of Book 2, as well. We should be hitting it next week.

When the end of Book 2 hits Royal Road, I'll be taking a month or so hiatus to work on the next War Horses book, which has been woefully neglected in trying to keep up with 3x weekly updates to MBGSP and weekly updates to Two of Knaves.

I hope you enjoy the chapter!

Chapter 106 - Punch line

“Slow down,” I said. Even t...

Two of Knaves - Chpt 100

Wow! 100 chapters of Knaves!

This story has had a bit of a rocky start, seeing as a surprise deployment to Iraq and Syria ended up putting this story on hiatus for several months. But we've come back, and it's still growing and bringing in new readers. Thanks everyone that stuck around to see it get this far.

Chapter 100 - Double or Nothing

“Darcent, Darcent! We’ve got a doubles fight sponsored by the shrine!” said Annalisa.

I tr...

MBGSP Chpt 104-105

Hello goblin fans! Only two chapters this week, since I'm a little behind due to Dragon Age related events. There will be a third chapter coming Saturday.

This week and next week's update wrap up the Stampede arc. I hope you've enjoyed hunting along with the orc in their mad tournament of glory and bbq.

Chapter 104 - A Meteor Made Flesh

I ran back to the chopper with its engine still hot and running.

“What did she demand?” aske...

Two of Knaves chpt 99

Chapter 99 - Familiar Threats

“Your familiar?” I demanded.

“My bound demon,” acknowledged Daggertongue. He smoothed his vests and reclaimed his chair, whisking it upright with a snap of his fingers. “And you would not believe, nor condone, the price paid to gain its service.”

The demonic creature moved toward me, new mouths forming and wrestling with each other to chomp at me like fish competing for a morsel, until it recoiled in either shock ...

MBGSP Chpt 101-103

3 fresh chapters, coming in hot!

Some of you may have noticed the price of the Patreon has dropped. If you've got a recurring sub, you should see the reduced price when it renews. Also, I've enabled yearly subs for an additional discount.

The Stampede is heating up! I hope you guys are enjoying antics with the orcs. I've written orcs into quite a few stories, and I always try and put a new spin on them every time. These big game hunters are some of my favorite.

Also, the ma...

MBGSP chpt 98-100

Wow!

It's hard to believe we've made it to 100 chapters! This story continues to be a blast to write, and I had a ton of fun writing the Stampede. If you've some of my other books, you probably know how excited I get about monster fighting and hunting, especially when I have a chance to make the monsters especially strange. It should come as no surprise that I'm a big fan of the Monster Hunter games, and that Monster Hunter Wilds is my most anticipated title of next year.

Enjoy th...

Two of Knaves chpt 98

Chapter 98 – Cross Training

Fineous wasn’t a bad guy. And we had definitely inconvenienced him by summoning him from his office in the upper city all the way to the unsheathing in the middle of the night. I felt genuinely bad about that. But I didn’t feel bad about the forged Royal Arcanists seal, or the two city-issued undercity passes that arrived at the Mop three days later, just before I headed up to the upper city for a lesson with Daggertongue. Not...

Two of Knaves Chpt 96-97

Hello, knaves! Double update today. Unfortunately, 2oK has taken the brunt of the effects of the chaos over the past few weeks, including travel and surgery and various other goings on. I appreciate everyone being patient. I'm working to rebuild the backlog for the story (adequate lead-up is important to being able to foreshadow in a story about prophecy), and preparing for the transition into writing full time where I'll be able to dedicate more time to Two of Knaves updates.

Once I'm ...

MBGSP Chpt 95-97

Happy Thursday, goblin fans!

You'll be happy to know that my surgery went well, despite the anesthesia making me violently ill for the next several days (because projectile vomiting is really what you want with three abdominal incisions).

Monster hunting is something I always love writing about, and in fact I wrote an entire novel about an undead monster hunter a while back called Ought to be Dead, which you are welcome to check out. It's on Kindle Unlimited.

With the chaos...

MBGSP 92

Hello, goblin fans!

Sorry for the late upload, I thought I'd be able to get things squared away Friday night, but I had surgery Friday Morning and apparently I don't play well with general anesthesia, so I've spent the weekend in full recovery mode. I hope you enjoy the chapters!

Chapter 92 - Forging Friends

“Make hot the coals and put backs to bellows, my lads!” shouted Sourtooth. The old orc had swapped his blanket for a thick leath...

Next MBGSP upload 10/9/24

If you're following on Royal Road, you're probably already aware that this week there will be no uploads due to working on a short-term project and attending a wedding. Normal updates resume next week.

Thanks for your patience!

MBGSP Chpt 89-91

Happy Friday, goblin fans!

Hope you enjoy this week's chapters. It introduces yet more inhabitants of Lanclova, even if these ones are only here on retreat. Dig in!

Chapter 89 - Healthy Competition

“Regroup!” I said. Keep distance!”

I didn’t know what I was dealing with here, but we were not ready to be facing cavalry in the middle of a fight we were already losing. Armstrong pulled us out about the time the th...

MBGSP chpt 86 thru 88

Howdy, goblin fans! The story continues with a couple surprising new twists, leading into the meat of arc 2. Hope ya'll enjoy.

Chapter 86 - On the Prowl

Splitting from Taquoho’s group with a final wave, we pulled out onto the open plain, steering through grassland and bare, rocky turf while the sun beat down overheat. Armstrong was right about one thing: It was hot without the canopy cover of the forest. Of course, we were also ...

MBGSP Chpt 83-85

Ahoy, goblin fans! Hopefully you're as excited as I am to get this ridiculous show on the road and see some road goblins get ready to take the badlands by storm.

Chapter 83 - Flame Out

<Your tribe has increased to 369 very hungry members>

I didn’t want to try attacking the night haunts where they lived without at least 3 more airships and enough guns to take them on. If the night haunts followed suit with the other creatu...

MBGSP Chpt 79-82

Hello, goblin fans!

We're back and updating again after my short break. I hope you're all doing well and have had a productive couple of weeks. I wish mine had been more-so (though it was technically supposed to be something of a short writing break to avoid burnout, I got the itch to start again pretty quickly).

Here are this weeks updates for My Big Goblin Space Program, taking us up through Chapter 83.

Chapter 79 - Sequential Distribution

&nb...

MBGSP Chpt 75 - 79

Here's the second half of this week's updates, goblin fans! The Patreon is now, officially, rocking 12 advance chapters for My Big Goblin Space Program. With a three-week break from updates coming up at the end of the first book being posted to Royal Road, it just makes sense to have the Patreon three weeks worth of updates ahead. I hope ya'll are enjoying the change of pace and renewed focus on technology for a little bit in the absence of a piggy threat. It's not without its own challenges...

MBGSP - Chpt 71 - 74 (plus anouncement)

Happy Monday, goblin fans! This is coming a few days earlier than expected. But there's a good reason for that. Before enjoying these advance chapters, there's a quick announcement.

You guys are awesome.

Ok, so that's not really the announcement. The story has only been out a couple months, but Patreon subscribers have stepped up to support the future of the story in a real way and I really appreciate it. Even though publishers have reached out and I'm close to hammering out a dea...

Two of Knaves Chpt 93 thru 95

Here are the next 3 chapters for Two of Knaves! I apologize for letting the update slip my mind, but we're back up to the 4 advanced chapters on Patreon.

Chapter 93 - Daggertongue

With dawn approaching, I donned my robe and cravat and headed for the upper city. I passed Annalisa, slumped asleep at the bar atop a pool of frozen spittle, in which her cup, a handful of copper clips, as well as her face, were firmly lodged. The precipice ...

MBGSP - Chpt 67 thru 70

Hey there, goblin fans! Before we get into the chapters, I wanted to ask if ya'll had any opinions: Do you prefer getting the week's worth of chapters all at once like this? Or would you prefer daily updates like Royal Road gets? Let me know in the comments or the discord.

In any case, we're picking up right where we left off with last week's update, wherein Apollo learns that an extra 'N' can make a big, big difference. We also get our first look at one of the most dangerous creatures ...

MBGSP chpt 63 thru 66

Hey Goblin Fans! Coming in hot with 4 more chapters for this week to bring us up to parity +8. Sorry I'm a little late in getting these posted, the last couple days have had some pretty interesting developments that I'm not quite ready to make public yet! But since this is Patreon, I'm willing to let slip that I've been offered a multi-book deal for MBGSP, with additional competing offers likely coming soon. Please keep that knowledge here! I haven't accepted anything yet, as I'm still weighi...

MBGSP Chpt 58 thru 62

Big update for you guys this week! The end of Arc 1 wraps up midway through the update, transitioning smoothly into the start of Arc 2. MBGSP is still running full-steam and shows no signs of stopping. Patreon numbers have been going up, and a bit down, but mostly up. On Royal Road, we're still getting more readers hopping on the goblin train by the day, and we've maintained our spot in the top 50 stories on Royal Road - which is a result of you guys leaving good reviews, and I appreciate it!...

Two of Knaves chpt 91 thru 92

Hey everyone! Here are the next two early chapters of Two of Knaves!

Chapter 91 - With a Flourish

I stopped by the workbenches to borrow one of the old timers’ quill for a moment. The interesting thing about 6’s, is that it’s very easy to make them look like 8’s if they’re written as numerals instead of longform. Lady Pelladine had been in such a hurry that she didn’t even realize she’d be paying me an extra...

MBGSP - Chpt 54 thru 57

Here we go, goblin fans! It's not just iron in the bog, the dangerous wetlands hold something even more precious. This update takes the advance all the way up through the weekend on Royal Road, so sink your teeth in to a little bonus prior to the free version catching up.

Chapter 54 - Icky Slicky

It was actually somewhat marvelous, the way the boglins used their tesla wasp rods to zap the croc-knockers that came too close. A few of them still g...

Bonus art: War Horses Grande Melee book cover teaser

Viser Juste, Chevaliers! Coming in hot with a new splash art straight from Logan Espartero. This one is the cover art for Book 5, and no, it's not Destier and those red beams aren't an orbital bombardment. You'll have to read the book to find out what they are.
