Whew, another month down!

Okay, stuff to chat about. Going to have some opportunity to rush forward with stuff in the back half of this month, but trying to set up to take advantage of it. With luck, I'll be done writing CCOH 2 (2k/4k done), RW 20.5, and 9L 3. Hoping and praying I get the chance to do more forward writing, because I'm trying to get a few important scenes done for In The Mirror.

The next vote coming up (likely around July 4th) is going to be a very telling one. I've been getting several asks to do follow-ups on characters who have only appeared once or twice, so there are going to be a LOT of options to choose from. July has a Fifth Friday, so that will be the reward that month.

What else? A huge congratulations to Nyx Nightingale AKA TheNyxianLily for completing Book One of her own Becoming Monsters story, Blood and Chlorophyll. Those of you who are patrons of hers got the last chapter just recently, those of you who are not will get the last one in a week or two on public sites. In addition, I have been promoted to Captain in the Quaranteam Writers Room, meaning that I'm doing more review and lore checks on the storylines there. Fun times, but it means that I'm likely approaching the end of Adam's story personally. Chapter 25 seems the most probable point for that, which would work out nicely.

Finally, I have finished writing Ten Thousand Steps. My Discord server just passed 9400, they will get the chapter as soon as they finish the count and the Patreon will get it that Friday (public will get it a month later). I'm also in the middle of commissioning splash art for it, because I like doing that for rewards.

As usual, I remain on deck to answer any and all questions you may have.
