As some of you may have noticed, I’ve released “The Ring–Bargain.” I’d penned this as a supporter-only short story last year, but they’ve agreed it would be appropriate to release such tales more broadly. While these shorter accounts have been available for purchase in Bookapy, they provide further insights into what may have or will be occurring outside the main Ring saga tales surrounding Aiden. As such, you can expect to see them release for free throughout the year. In a similar vein, any supporter-only short stories for “The Immortal” will follow this pattern, beginning with “Mi Finds a Home."
Future such adjunctive short stories will be both offered for free and sold in Bookapy for those of you wishing to support the site as well as myself. Frankly, they cost far more in time and effort to write/construct than any funds I would receive, so focus on the former.
And speaking of “The Immortal,” as I’d notified supporters earlier this year, I’ve begun updating his story once more. Of necessity, because of my work on several novels, the release schedule for each chapter will be loose as my intention is to maintain its format. It was my first story, and I scribbled it in crayon as a fantastical serial. It shall remain a serial. And quite fantastical. One day, when we all trundle across the finish line, a digitized leather-bound series of tomes may be offered in Bookapy. However, in the meantime, you may join me as I chronicle Iakovos’ meandering travels through his own personal encounters and the supernatural events occurring around him.
I’ve also submitted Chapter 12 of “A Fair Trade” today. When Kyle’s dad goes out of town on business, he’s left alone for more quality mother-son bonding time. Chapter 13 will go up on Subscribestar for you lovely supporters.
And again, I must highlight all those who’ve supported my efforts. Huge hugs and kisses from the muses. As a hobbyist, it’s never been my intention to make a living at skribblin’ o wirdz, but such generosity, either kind words or monetary or both, motivates me to share my stories with all of you. It also encourages me to improve. I hope to provide you the best writing I can rummage together from the screeching of the muses. You rock. Thank you.
