Hi there!
I hope you're enjoying Dream's journey so far. I'm excited to share an announcement and provide you with an update on my writing progress.
First, the announcement: On October 7, 2023, I'm thrilled to let you know that "They Who Slither through the Stars: Ethereal Breeze" has gone live on Kindle and is also available on Kindle Unlimited. This might not seem like a big deal to some, but for me, it's a significant milestone. I can't stress enough how much effort and time I invested in editing this book. Writing, as challenging as it sounds, doesn't hold a candle to the exhausting process of editing. Editing makes me feel like one of the random characters in my novel, just waiting for an inevitable and miserable end at the hands of the protagonist. 😅
I want to extend a special shoutout to Felix8_5_1, Itkovan, Amine and all the others who provided edit suggestions. Your contributions made the editing process so much more manageable.
So everyone, if you have a moment, I'd be honored if you could check it out. I know you've already read through it, but a second look never hurts, right? It'll freshen things up.

Now, let's move on to the update about Book 3. As you may know, I finished writing it last month, but I've decided to switch to a three-times-a-week release schedule. I've also already started working on Book 4. Here's the exciting part: I'm currently at 51,000 words, which is about 45% of Book 4! It turns out I can be quite productive when I'm not feeling the pressure to upload a chapter every day. I was genuinely surprised by how much progress I made in just two weeks, considering the fact that I'm directing 50% of my redacting effort toward my fourth novel "Soul Harvest".
But enough about me; let's get back to the main topic. I plan to finish writing Book 4, and in the meantime, Book 3 will continue to be released at a pace of three chapters a week. However, it's important to note that this schedule will come to a stop on Wednesday, November 8, 2023, when the epilogue of Book 3 will be uploaded. By that time, I should have completed Book 4. On that day, I'll be able to return to my usual daily writing schedule for a solid month, which should be enough for me to finish Book 5. I've been in a situation where I had to make the difficult decision to drop my novel in the past, so this journey means even more to me. I'm looking forward to experiencing that incredibly satisfying feeling of providing closure to all my characters' stories, rather than the one I felt upon not giving any of them the happy or miserable ending they deserved. Shit, shit, shit! I just realized those Medvedik bastards are still alive in the latest chapter of Marauding Gods. Aaaargh!! Perhaps I should write a special chapter about how they get to die miserably, as I planned to.
Anyway, thank you for being part of this journey with me, and I hope you continue to enjoy the adventure ahead. It won't be a long one (240+ chapters), but it'll be an epic one.
