Writing news: Patreon is gonna be LIT this month. We've got a ton of action and surprises happening in The Wings of Shattered Fire (TWOSF). Also, this month's AU is a combination of learning more about Linyive (Serill's sister) and getting a look at the moon temple! There are new bonuses in the tiers (including signed books, book boxes, and custom stories) so take a look! You get some really incredible insights into my books, AND YOU CAN READ TWOSF before release!

Just so you know, Patreon exists for the benefit of YOU. This is here because you make doing what I love possible. That's why I make sure there is bonus stuff there every single week. Because YOU as the reader are the most important part of my writing. Without you, paid patrons or not, this is not possible.

Employee of the Month:

Just look at her eating her blueberries! She loves them. She got her 15m shots and needed a good cheer up.

Disaster of the month: Parky ended up in Violet's crib and she was not so happy that he didn't want to stay in and cuddle with her. Let's just say it was a challenge to get her down for bedtime again...

WIP - The Wings of Shattered Fire:

How about I tease you more with that Patreon AU with this opening bit?

Due to a series of unfortunate events which were entirely her fault, Linyive found herself standing on the fifth story ledge of the moon temple’s East Wing with a bottle of very expensive and rare whiskey in her grip. To her fortune, summer session had just ended so no students were loitering this late at night to see her predicament.

To her misfortune, she was not wearing any pants.

Sending you love, kindness, and peace for wherever you are right now.

P.S.

If you were to subscribe to an author or artist on a platform such as Patreon, what sort of benefits would you like to see? Signed books? Physical gifts? Getting inside looks at their WIPs?

The reason I ask is because this month, Kindle Unlimited payout was one of the lowest it's ever been - because there was an influx of AI generated books that watered down the market. That's a huge bummer, but the benefit of Patreon and subscription services is so I can make a better experience for you without catering to an industry that eats so much of the author revenue. Subscriptions are for the benefit of the reader, and I want to make the experience as enjoyable as possible for you over there - hence new stories every month, reading chapters before publication, and getting your feedback and votes on stories so you have a say in how the book polishes up!

FYI, this is not a note that I'm leaving KU. I understand that my readership is primarily there, and I know that it's a very affordable way for people to read my stories.
