For the second year in a row, I completed NaNoWriMo on 28 November, two days ahead of schedule with 50k words scribbled in “Aiden Ascending’s” rough draft. Better news: yesterday I finished the rough draft at 58,533 words in 24 chapters. It’s now in the freezer for 60 days (-ish) until I begin the second draft. "Aiden Ascending" should amount to c.70k words when you see it in Spring or Summer 2023.

Today, you should find Chapter 6 of “A Fair Trade.” More mother-son bonding in this one, along with Kyle’s new nightly visitor.

Update to the ever-tightening screws on adult content providers. My last blog’s note: “The free Follower tier grants the ability to view progress updates” is now incorrect. Subscribestar has changed their policy and the Follower tier will only receive an email that content is available to the supporter (paid) tiers. As such, I’m afraid this blog will be the only source of information on upcoming content for non-supporter tier members.

My thanks to those providing such positive feedback. You’re amazing and every comment helps drive me forward. The muses sing for all my Subscribestar supporters or those kind enough to purchase my works on Bookapy.

As I close on the end of November, it’s my traditional time to review the year’s activities. In this case, I focused on my writing related pursuits. After careful consideration, I’ve dropped Subscriber-only shorts, as they’re too time intensive and I’d prefer to share my stories with everyone. Furthermore, I’ve deleted my Discord server. From now on, subscribers can track my progress and preview upcoming material via Subscribestar posts. The free Follower tier grants the ability to view progress updates. Doing that has simplified my efforts, and thus I’ve more time for writing. Likewise, my nascent Instagram and Facebook accounts are no more.

Now, on to the future. NaNoWriMo is ending soon. I’ve already completed over 44k words for “Aiden Ascending’s” rough draft.

Today, you should also find Chapter 5 of “A Fair Trade.” Even more strange occurrences shake Kyle’s world. WARNING: I didn’t want to tag the entire story with it since it’s rare and of a very specific/limited variety, but this chapter contains a quasi-bestiality scene.

Again, your feedback is much appreciated and those of you supporting my efforts via Subscribestar or Bookapy are truly amazing. My profound thanks.

As of this morning, I’ve scribbled 32,879 words into the first thirteen chapters of “Aiden Ascending” for NaNoWriMo. In addition, I managed to update and post Chapter 4 of “A Fair Trade.” As he witnesses more change, Kyle’s world continues to alter.

Once more, your kind words and/or generous support via Subscribestar or Bookapy this week have continued to amaze me and drive me forward. Thank you all.

No. Although this is the final installment of “Aiden and the Ring,” I’ve been pounding out words in the sequel, “Aiden Ascending” for NaNoWriMo this month. His continuing adventures, set over a decade in the future, are exceedingly fun to write. If all goes according to schedule, as I noted in my last blog post, you should see it sometime towards the middle of Summer.

In addition, I’ve posted Chapter 3 of “A Fair Trade.” The story continues to twist, and an additional layer of strangeness enters Kyle’s life. More madness, much more, is in the offing.

Hugs to my Subscribestar supporters and those aiding my efforts by purchasing my works on Bookapy. And thanks for the continued kind words, they mean the world to me.

As leaves swirled down around me, I kicked off NaNoWriMo with the rewrite of “Aiden Ascending,” the second book in The Ring Saga. Despite herding contractors and other things that popped up, I’ve completed just shy of 7k good words and three chapters. Now, to be clear, my intent is to complete 50k IAW NaNoWriMo rules before the end of the month. The story will most likely end up being longer, but that’s on me to complete in December. After which it’ll sit in the freezer until at least February, when I will process the rough into a second draft. Then comes another bout of freezer time before final edits c. May. All of which means you should see it in the Summer.

In the meantime, I will continue to release chapters of Kyle’s story, “A Fair Trade,” as they leave final edits. Behind the scenes, I’m focusing the rest of my efforts on final edits for two stories you should see in Spring.

And, as we draw to close with “Aiden and the Ring,” I’ve submitted Chapter 35 for posting. Gina and Aiden seal their bond. The final chapter, Chapter 36, is now available on Subscribestar.

Once more, those of you buying my works on Bookapy are genuine heroes. Thank you all. And for those kind enough to support my efforts on Subscribestar, you know how much the muses love you. In addition, from the bottom of my heart, I thank you all for your kind words of encouragement.
