12/8 Short and Chapter 6 Progress Report

Hey everyone! I've been sort of swept up in work and a lot of other stuff right now, so it's all kind of chaotic. With the holidays and everything, I didn't get to a short last week and I've also been trying to play catch up with chapter 6

Firstly, here is this week's short. It's a glimpse ...

The Halloween Event Is Live

Hey everyone, I realize I've been radio silent and I apologize. Good news, the Halloween Shorts are now public on itch.io

For my paid members, you can access it here if you've donated at least $1: 2024-11-24 20:49:46 +0000 UTC View Post

Author Check-in 11/7

Hey everyone! I'm so sorry about the radio silence this week. It's just been a lot between dealing with the insurance and my anxiety going through the roof. And when my anxiety is acting up, game's over, I can't focus on anything. Now that things are settled with the insurance and all that nonse...

Personal Update/ This Sucks 10/23

Hey everyone, I posted this to tumblr already but I just want to cover all my bases. I don't have the energy right now to go into a full explanation.

So, short version: I was in a car accident earlier today and my car is possibly (probably) totaled. (I swerved to avoid someone who had gone ...

Author Check-in 10/16 - Halloween Side Story

Hey everyone. I'm really sorry that I'm so inconsistent here. Generally when I'm on my laptop, I'm working on public wifi, so I'm not comfortable logging into Patreon.

Anyway, reposting this from Tumblr with a few added notes:

So we're doing the side story. The vote was pretty overwhe...

Halloween "Event"? 10/2

Hey everyone, welcome to spooky season.

I didn't have any intent to do anything holiday related really mostly because I've been focused on shorts and chapter progress. However, it occurs to me that I might be missing an opportunity if I don't do something Halloween related. Especially since...

Boring Progress Chart 10/02

Copy pasting this from Tumblr, so ignore if you've already seen it there:

So I don't know how accurate I'm being here, so if the math doesn't math don't be surprised. I was an English major.

Anyway, the overall chapter has been broken down to 7 main parts. There are some parts that ar...

9/29 Patreon Short

Whoops, totally forgot about this. I posted this link in the Discord earlier and then promptly deleted it from my brain I guess.

9/26 Author Check-in

Hey, guys. I'm sorry for the radio silence this last week or so. After the public release of chapter 5, I've been letting myself veg out a little so I can recharge. I do have a short finished that I'll release this Friday or Saturday (I'm not sure). It's another Carter short, but don't worry the ...

Personal Update 9/17

I'm posting this everywhere just as a heads up and also a thank you for you guys' continued support and enthusiasm.

I'm currently experiencing financial struggles (as are we all) and I have several pre-existing health conditions which make those problems worse. These conditions don't make w...

9/7 Author Check-in, Weekly Short, and Chapter 5 Early Release

First things first,

This week's short is one that focuses on Carter and reveals something about his past as a young man.

Secondly, I'll be releasing the full version of Chapter 5 at 3pm today (9/7) for my Agents.

8/31 Author Check-in

Well, it feels like it's been a while since I did one of these. I'm sorry guys, shit's been hectic.

Anyway, chapter 5 is in the editing process. It didn't take nearly as long as I thought it would to get it into twine, but editing will be a bear as the word count is something like +20k and...

8/18 Author Check-in

Hey guys! Quick update today. I would have posted last night but it was my birthday and all I wanted to do was sleep. So I did.

Anyway

Chapter 5 is going well. We're now about 4/5 done with the last route. So we're getting close.

And this week's short is very short indeed, sorr...

8/10 Author Check-in and Weekly Short

We got an R short this week. There is a "blink and you'll miss it" reference in the first chapter to a quilt on the MC's bed made by "Mama Jude". This was originally meant to be edited out because it's a leftover from when this story was a novel, but it was never cut. So here's a short expanding ...

Chapter 5 Demo (finally)

Hey everyone! All right, I've probably promised it about ten times, but the chapter 5 demo is finally here. It will take you through the entirety of the "common" route.

This is accessible only for people who have donated at least $8 at the "Friend of the Court" tier.

(Since Patreon is...

7/28 Short

Hey everyone! As you might know, I posted this earlier on my tumblr but did not have the time to do so here.

Here is this week's short:

Author Check-in 7/20

No short this weekend guys. I've quickly lost track of time and I've been focusing on chapter 5, which I feel takes priority. Good news is that I have written something like +3000 words the last few days here. So I have been productive in that at least.

I do have an idea for a short to come...

7/13 Check in and Short

Hey everyone! It's been a crazy first full week of work and I haven't had a ton of oomph left when I get home, but that's just me adjusting. I'll get the hang of it.

Chapter 5 is slowly, ever so slowly moving along--I keep saying the demo will be out soon, which is true. I've just been deba...

7/5 Author Check-in

Hey everyone! I am plugging away slowly at the next chapter.

For now, this week's short: A quick, bare bones take on the first case Carter asks the MC to help with where welearn just a smidge more about Carter.

7/3 Thoughts, updates, etc.

Patreon is still feeding me an error message whenever I try to upload a large attachment to my posts, so this seems to be a permanent "thing". I was hoping it would resolve itself, but I might have to get hold of support.

That said, I think it'll ultimately be easier to just upload the shor...

I'M BACK-- 7/2

UGH. Okay a frustrating 48 hours later and I have internet again.

So, patreon is still being a major dick and won't let me attach a large file, so, we'll have to do the shorts in a different way until that problem gets fixed.

6/30 Author Check-In and Weekly Short

Hey everyone! I'm sorry for the radio silence lately. I just got back from my road trip last night around midnight and today has been a crazy day of unpacking. I even forgot I had a short ready.

Since I start a new job on the 3rd, the irregular schedule might go on until I've adjusted. In t...

Author Check in 6/23

Hey everyone! I'm sorry I've gone MIA. As I said, I've been on a road trip with my sister and I haven't been able to find time to do much of anything computer related.

I'm sorry for the missed short on Friday. I'm going to do my best to get one finished this week and I can't, I will try to ...

6/15 New Carter Short

6/14 Author Check-in

Hey everyone! It's hard to believe that it's Friday. This week has been super hectic.

First things first, I got a new part time job. I don't start until some time in July, so I'm not quite sure how it'll affect my writing. But regardless I'm still excited.

Secondly, my sister and I ar...

6/8 Patreon Short

This week's short is a short moment between MC and R.

6/7 Author Check-in

Nothing really to say as far as the next chapter goes. I've hit a bit of a bump, but I blame a little bit of burnout as I haven't really given myself any kind of break. I plowed through the 14k in chapter 4 and went straight into chapter 5, writing another 6k in just a week or so. I think I just ...

6-1 Kestrel Short

A short interaction between MC and the Kestrel.

5/31 Author Check-in- Chapter 4 and More

The Chapter 4 public update will be going live today, so that's always exciting.

This chapter gives you a few more opportunities to flirt with R than it does Z if only because we spend at least half the chapter with R. I'll try to balance out "screen time" more in the future.
