A Few Updates

So I was planning to have a story out for Halloween. But after a busy month, including a vacation where I didn't have any proper WiFi, I didn't get the chance to finish it 😔 Instead, I'm going to share a few updates for now.

First of all, I'm sure you're aware that Aardvark's Tumblr was nuked, along with most of his stories. He has plans to make them accessible again, so keep an eye on that via his Bluesky or Patreon. As for now, I took some time to find the stories we previously collaborated on, and I've added them here instead. Give them a read if you haven't already!

The Wonder Realms (Teen to Middle Age)
The Romans & The Greeks (Teen to Young Adult; Teen to Middle Age)
Old Man Cravitz (Teen to Old; Halloween)
The North Pole Experience (Teen To Old; Young Adult to Older Adult; Young Adult to Middle Age; Young Adult to Old; Christmas)

Now I know that people don't always like to leave comments, myself included 😅 But I'm also well aware that Blogger's comment section is... Not the greatest or most reliable... I also know I'm not the best person to get in touch with, I'm a bit social media averse. But I do like to hear thoughts and comments, so I know what's working, and what you want more of. I've attempted to add some form of ratings system to posts recently. Alas, I am not tech savvy enough to figure it out! Until then, maybe leave a comment on this post if Blogger finds it in its heart to allow it.

Case in point, I appreciate the love for Splashdown. Rest assured, I already have a sequel planned. I wanted to wait until after the spooky season but, well, you know how that turned out. The problem now is that I can't decide on an end result, so to speak. So I thought that I'd put it to a vote with a twist. Here's a link to a poll with varying characteristics. Choose how you want Chase to become, and I'll do my best to match things up to the most popular choices. No AI, I promise!

On the topic of sequels, I was thinking maybe next year, I'll focus entirely on follow-ups to some stories. There are plenty I always write with an intention to follow up with, and many more I've been asked to continue. So I'll try to stick to my guns and actually write some conclusions!

I'm also toying with the idea maybe a few stories without images (gasp!), or even a pick your own path sort of thing, though I'll see how this Chase poll goes before making any commitments on that front. It could be messy without any plan or interest... If any of that's something you're into, let me know! Thanks again for reading, and with any luck, I'll have something new within the next few weeks 😊
