Sorry to get your hopes up, but this is not an official post.
As I've just informed my P-atreons, I began writing this series as a way to gain some experience, improve my writing, and try out a few different concepts for my own story. For the most part, I’ve accomplished everything I originally intended, and I’m now ready and wanting to begin writing my book.
Unfortunately, I don’t have the time to balance my personal life and write both this and my personal piece, and I’m not willing to spend another 2+ years writing this instead of focusing on my personal creation. Still, I don’t want to stop this half-way like so many other fan-fictions.
As a compromise, I have decided that from this point on (Book 7 Chapter 32 on the P-atreon), instead of writing it in the standard chapter to chapter format, I will condense the contents of each book/volume into a detailed plot description. The length of each post will still remain the same – 1500 to 2000 words – but it will be broken down into Book … Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 etc.
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
Now I know many of you will be sceptical about this style, but this will not only allow me to shorten the amount of time I spend on this story, but it also has its benefits for you as the readers. It will mean you, as the readers, get to spend less time reading what is essentially fluff and instead absorb just the nitty gritty, which I’m sure, if you’re anything like me, is what you’re really interested in. I've made sure to keep in as much detail as possible whilst getting rid of all the fluff that goes into making it a proper story, and I think I've done quite a good job (even if I do say so myself).
For those of you who are interested, I have just released the remainder of book seven - in full - on the P-atreon. Feel free to head on over and give it a read! XP
This won't affect any of you for who read the book on here, at least not for quite some time, but I just wanted to give those of you who're considering going over to the P-atreon fair warning.
I hope this doesn't dissuade any of you from heading over to the Patreon, and for the future, I hope all of you will give my original story a try - I'm really excited for it!
Thanks again for all the love and support!
