1.34 Growth (Swiss)
Again, sorry for the delay on this chapter. After struggling to get 1.35 right I probably should have just moved on to write a different scene then come back to it, but that's hard to do when I never know exactly how things are going to play out within a chapter until I actually write them. :)Writing struggles aside this wasn't the best week for me, which certainly doesn't help. Things...
Yes, I'm still alive!
Hey all, just an update to say I haven't disappeared. My writing time this week hasn't been very productive. Still working on 1.35.-KEdit: New ETA is some time Saturday. Sorry for the delay folks.

1.32 Baby Steps III (Swiss)
Sorry for the delay on this one, folks! Had to take care of some stuff the past few days.Google DocsPre {Changelog {1.32, Governing Attributes:Initially I just listed these in a column beside some of Silas’s Skills as a personal reference on the spreadsheet I use to track his progress and generate the Status tables.

1.31 The Dark Tides (Swiss)
I had some difficulties getting chapters out this week, for reasons both internal and external. Don't really want to talk about it beyond acknowledging it happened. I hope to get more chapters out next week, but I've learned my lesson on trying to promise a set number of chapters per week, namely in that I'm not at the level where I can churn out five or more chapters a week I'm ha...

Seeing page dividers and margins on text not intended for printing just annoys me.)Pre {Changelog {1.29:Where were his shoes? His clothes?? "Dangit Eve!

1.29 Baby Steps (Swiss)
Rather than unlock old posts, I'm going to make new ones for you guys. I think that's easier for me, and I know when I was a lower tier patron of another author I didn't always get notified when they unlocked posts for that tier, which can get annoying.If I haven't said it in a while: I'm thankful for all your support! I didn't expect my story to gain the quick popularity t...
1.28 Perspective
"Should have no big interruptions today. Hopefully I'll get 1.28 out tonight or tomorrow and I can finally be 2 chapters ahead!" -me, on May 3rd.Why do I tempt Fate so?(I even edited in the 'or tomorrow' shortly after posting, already thinking I would have been better off to just not say anything.)Barely got any writing done after that, and Star Wars day didn't go much bett...
Minor Tier Tweaks, for less sales tax
Not sure if anyone was being charged a sales tax before, but I added the benefit "General Support" to all the tiers, to make it clear each tier is about supporting me, with the advanced chapters being something I am providing as thanks for that support.With this new General Support benefit weighted for 100% of the tax value, it should limit what taxes anyone has to pay.Apparently, otherwis...
1.27 Sacrifice
I'm pushing 1.26 to Royal Road. Should have no big interruptions today. Hopefully I'll get 1.28 out tonight or tomorrow and I can finally be 2 chapters ahead!Here's the chapter:Google Docs link.1.27 Sacrifice{Pre note: Thanks for reading! Here's today's chapter!}73.

A slight schedule revision...
Instead of promising a chapter a day Monday through Friday, I'm going to aim for five chapters a week right now (for cheddar), a slight but distinct difference. I need a buffer chapter or two written before I can have a more reliable release schedule for you all.Didn't have time to write much today. I have half a chapter done, should be able to finish it in the morning.And, yes, it does an...
1.26 Glory
Going forward, to build up some advanced chapters for patrons, I'm going to try to release chapters Monday through Friday on Patreon, with the occasional weekend bonus chapters, while releasing a chapter every other day on Royal Road. I considered posting only MWF on RR, but with the momentum I'm gaining right now that feels like a bad idea, having a two day posting gap every weekend.Once ...
1.25 Like an Automaton
Hello patrons! Thanks for supporting me this month! I'm not sure I would have made it this far without knowing I had people out there who liked my writing enough to offer me a bit of financial support!As thanks, here's my first true advanced chapter! Everyone gets this one, as I'll round up when determining how many chapters Swiss gets, not down.Pasting his status here turned out to no...
1.20 The Moose and Fox
Figured I should give you guys a little something, as thanks for being my patrons!Here is 1.20 a bit early! I'll post it to Royal Road in a couple hours, after I eat and give it one more editing pass.Ideally I can write two more chapters before Monday, so you're all at least one chapter ahead, but I hate to promise something I'm not sure I can deliver on, so... No promises.As I said el...
Welcome!
Glad to see you made it this far!I decided to make a Patreon page, because if I can get enough support here I'd love to be able to write full time!If, somehow, you're here and don't know what words I write, check out The Laptop Hero here.I don't plan to promote my Patreon page until I have ten or so extra chapters built up here for the Cheddar tier (thus five for Swiss), something ...
