The road ahead... (Patreon)

There's a lot of work to do before the book is Kindle ready, and I want you guys to know how I'm going to be spending my time.

I plan on spending at least 2 weeks editing/copyediting/brainstorming book 3

the list of issues to address is as follows:

bar transition in chapter 3 needs to be clearer

move the mention of the parade somewhere earlier.

Cut Vegas and Alcatraz as the locations and their lenses served no purpose in the plot. it would be more fun to actually visit them for real some other time. spend a few chapters on it in another book.

explicitly lay out the scene where Jeb gets letter to meet Brett and Amanda outside. perhaps in the calm or the chapter before?

Make sure Jeb mentions Zlesk deserves credit to the emeperor.

change dead Casey's name (too many caseys)

give Eddie the science guy a new name, or nickname (It's the same as Eddie the evil guy from book 1)

Address allusions to mind control by emperor

Add stat update at end of story.

Check in with Vresh, wrap up Colt/Nancy + the teachers/kids/scientist, a conversation with Jess, 

Smartass's perspective on the Emperor,  

maybe a bit about the courier/assassin guy, 

maybe more questions about the nth dimensional leeches that impart knowledge, 

maybe mention what Jeb's gains were from his deal with Vresh.

Maybe some more science babble on how he figured out how to do the triggers for his semi non existent class.

...And a whole bunch of minor in-the-moment shit.

^about half of these of these were user suggestions. If you have any more, please let me know in the comments. I will try to write a couple chapters of WotR (another story of mine) during the two weeks while I'm taking breaks from editing. (I hate editing)

If you're bummed out about not getting much more of my stuff to read, check out https://www.royalroad.com/profile/100060/fictions 

I've got four separate stories, (And two of them have endings!)


If you want the most bang for your buck, consider hopping out of the Patreon, skipping March and then come back in April, when I'm most likely going to be in full production mode with half a month under my belt already.

If you wanna stick around and help me make the story better, or help influence what the next book is gonna be about, that would be much appreciated. The channels to do so are on Discord.

I'm going to gradually release the book 2 chapters to the public over the course of March, so you will likely dip below the patron benchmark of 7/14/all chapters ahead, but when the new story starts up, you will be many months ahead of public release, and the patron lead will be gradually built up again so hopefully it evens out. I caught some trouble for not being clear enough about that for book one.

TLDR: I'm going to be editing for 2 weeks, no apocalypse chapters during that time.


Thank you for everything! Feel free to message me here or on discord if you have questions, I don't have much of a life!
