Hey everyone,
I'm just finishing off Part 3. The entire chapter is about 38k words at the moment. (6th April).
This chapter will be a bit larger than the last couple, as I want to wrap up the Tashana story arc in one final go.

I was thinking about the sequel for Three Square Meals, which I've discussed briefly here before.
I do like the idea of doing a fantasy story at some point, but when I finish John Blake's adventures, I'm thinking of a sequel set in the same universe with a fresh cast of characters....

Editing took a while as I had quite a few minor changes to make, and I'll do a final grammar pass before publishing it to the free sites.
I hope you enjoy the chapter!

I saw there was lots of curiosity about how the pledges have grown, and Wookey asked to see a graph of pledges over time.
The blue bar represents the pledge figure for the first chapter posted per month. It lowers with each subsequent post as people reach their pledge/month limit (I'm guessing, bu...

Sorry I haven't been active on here for the last week or so. I wanted to get stuck into this chapter as I've been looking forward to writing it for months!

It's the biggest one so far, weighing in at just over 60k words, so I hope you enjoy it.
I'll still be doing some minor punctuation and grammar editing of the second half, but there won't be any major changes at this point. I thought I'd post it now, rather th...

It was 32k words, taking the entire chapter to 60k, which makes it the biggest yet! :-)

I was curious where most of the Patreon traffic is coming from, as I've posted Three Square Meals to both literotica and Storiesonline. There are stats on both sites tracking views, but the numbers are fairly similar.
So it's time for another poll! :-)

I just finished Chapter 70, or at least I've written 26k words and I've come to a half-decent stopping point. There's a lot going on in this chapter, so stopping anywhere is going to be problematic. It covers the 10 day journey from Dragon March through to the Unclaimed Waste...

Here's the profile view, showing how the Trankarans are below the Terran Federation, with the Maliri above. Again, the Terran Federation is hemmed in on all sides (or at least they've expanded in every direction as far as they can).

As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I was thinking about sketching out the Empire territory mentioned in the story.
I created two, a plan view and the profile view. Here is a plan view, showing the various empires that have hemmed in the Terran Federation.
