This Month’s Poll for the Commissioned Pioneer Tier! (Patreon)

Hello Commissioned Pioneers!

I hope everyone’s month is going great so far, and your new year is going awesome as well! :D Well, it’s that time again! And I’d like to take this opportunity to sit down for another talk with you guys! Last month was certainly interesting as we explored more of what Earth had to offer through Emma’s little presentation, as she tries her best to slowly ease the group into the realities of a manaless realm! We’re rapidly approaching classes now as well, so that’ll be interesting to see and I can’t wait to share what I’ve planned with all of you guys! :D

Beyond all of that though, I’d like to just say, thank you guys for sticking around with me and my stories. I know I’ve said this a lot already, but I can’t express enough how much I appreciate your guys’ support. A lot of things are happening irl right now in my life, a lot which is quite concerning and anxiety inducing, including potential issues that arose with my family and our current living arrangements. I won’t get into it, but suffice it to say, what I’ve said before in previous posts rings even more true right now. Your guys’ support has genuinely made a massive and undeniable impact on my life, which is allowing me to plough through these stressful times. So thank you guys, genuinely, for both sticking with me and my silly little stories. You guys truly mean the world to me.

You've made this silly little writer's days just so much more brighter.

As always though, the new month calls for another round of votes!

So let's get right into the task at hand!

You guys should already see the Monthly Short Story for December already up and live! Last month you guys voted for Wearing Power Armor to a Magic School's twelfth side story!

This time, we head to Havenbrockrealm, as we get a glimpse into a bit more of Thalmin’s backstory and his life prior to the Academy! I’ve been alluding to the Proving Dens, as well as his place in the Havenbrockian social hierarchy a few times in the story, so it was fun to actually explore that in greater detail! Thalmin as a character really means a lot to me, so I really hope that I’ve been able to do his character justice in this story!

I hope you guys enjoyed it!

Now, onto this month's poll for January's Short Story!

For those of you who are new Commissioned Pioneers, here's a little description of just how the polls work:

Every new month, each person in the Commissioned Pioneer tier gets 1 vote for one of the four story concepts listed in the poll. The poll will be posted soon after the release of the previous month’s bonus story. Voting will last for about three to four weeks following the poll’s release. This is so that everyone has ample time to vote across the entirety of the month, and so that I have time to write up the story for the new month!

And of course, as most of you guys are here for Wearing Power Armor to a Magic School, as well as Humans Don't Hibernate, this month's poll will again include an option for additional side story opportunities for these two universes! :D
