Hey everybody,

Hope you're all doing well! First off, book 2 has been outlined and I've written a few chapters. My main focus has been on marketing and editing Book 1, but please know that I haven't given up on telling the story :).

As a result of the work we've been doing, book 1 is set to release on March 1st!

I wanted you all to know that there were 16000 revisions made by my editor, but the general storyline has remained the same. So, that means you do not need to read the amazon version if you do not wish to do so. My editor's goal was to make sure the writing is more active and grammatically correct, while mine was on clarifying components that you all had comments on during the royal road release (e.g. making the stupid decision a little bit less stupid by: clarifying what is being wagered and making sure Claire doesn't go inside with untested Skills).

The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.

I enjoyed the first version, but going over your work with a fine-toothed comb is always an enlightening process haha.

My plea to you all: if you can, I would be immensely grateful to anyone who could leave a review on amazon. Reviews help, a lot! As such, if any of you enjoyed the book, I would love for you to add a review prior to the release on March 1st. If you don't feel comfortable doing so, no problem, but thank you to anyone who can.

I hope to have news for you all about book 2 mid-year. Until then, wish me luck on the release, and have a great rest of your month!

Thank you!
