Impromptu patron reward (Patreon)

Howdy, generous patrons. I've just moved over the past couple weeks, so my writing was on the slow side for the past couple weeks' updates. I'm settled in now and back into the swing of things, and I wanted to take a moment to show you a little appreciation for boldly being my first sponsors by giving you an advance on this coming week's update to The Tolerant.

It's a bit of a doozy - 11k+ words, presently, and I usually add more in the editing process. Speaking of, this is as yet unedited, so pardon any typos or errors. I'm pretty clean on a first go-around usually, but there's always little stuff. (I usually do my writing early in the week then make myself go back and edit later on when deadlines to submit it loom, and since the whole point is to get it to you early...)

Anyway, it's below, saved in a .doc format, or as a .txt if you can't open a Word document. (Which you should be able to in google docs, but still, just in case.)

If this is the kind of thing that's a positive for you, let me know! I'm happy to do this kind of thing whenever. I've yet to finalize my reward levels, but early access to work seemed like a no-brainer, so while I work on getting that formalized... enjoy!
