Hey folks,

It's been a bit. Sorry about the comms blackout. I don't have a wordcount for you today but it would just aggravate you.

It was a pretty frustrating few weeks for Jade Phoenix. I made little forward progress on words, because I had to delete a bunch of content. I had to completely delete half the prologue because of a change in the story. Then I had to delete and rewrite a flashback. And then delete some more elsewhere.

Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.

While I won't say it was unproductive, because these were important changes, I will say that from a wordcount perspective, it would be pretty disheartening for you all. So I'm not telling you numbers. It's for your own good. Trust me.

Invasion was put on the backburner while I trudged through all those JP fixes, so no change there. However, there is good news. With those things done, I think I can move forward again on both now.

I have no art for you this week, mainly because of time. But also because I wasn't sure what to make. Any ideas?

Thanks for your patience and understanding.
