February and March Portrait Polls
Midjourney still can't do scarring reliably. Multi-choice enabled for this poll, and I'll do portraits for top two.
Chapter 11 of No Joy (NJiC)- Throwing Stars is out for Squires!
I'm extremely excited about this chapter. It's been a while since I felt fully happy with all I wrote-one of the scenes here was one of the things I envisioned from the very inception of the No Joy. Also, I added some extra non-Dragonstone PoVs for those of you who wanted to see how things r...
Chapter 49 of Convergence of Fates (CoF) is out for Squires!
A neatly-sized chapter. This one was slow. I want to announce that the previous chapter is partly written and expanded as I've added another article and retconned some parts of the Lupin/Sirius meeting, so do check it out if you feel like it. Anyway, let me know what you think.You can read the p...
Chapter 10 of No Joy in Command is out for Squires!
Slightly late, but I'm happy with how this one came out. The plot thickens, almost like cheese does. Let me know your thoughts.You can read the previous chapters in the collection!
Chapter 9 of No Joy in Command is out for Squires!
A far more humble chapter. Still, one that had to be written. Lemme know what you think.You can read the previous chapters in the collection!
Chapter 48 of Convergence of Fates (CoF) is out for Squires!
That was surprisingly hard. I'm not happy with how this chapter came out at all. Probably because it's interactions between two characters I avoided writing interactions between. My editors went to sleep long before I was ready, so I decided to drop the chapter raw. You can either read it no...
Chapter 8 of No Joy is out for Squires!
Jon has ran out of fucks and various people are wildin'. Lemme know what you think in the comments!You can read the previous chapters in the collection!P.S: I see plenty of people raise the question of writing more/faster/or putting more tiers in Patreon, so I'll reply here for better visibi...
Chapter 7 of No Joy is out for Squires!
I figured how to return to proper embeds. Or perhaps it's Patreon who added the option back. I'm not sure which, but all should be well.The trolling continues. Chapter is a bit wild, all things considered, but y'all shoulda expected this when you voted for a crack-taken-seriously fic. Do...
Chapter 47 of Convergence of Fates (CoF) is out for Squires!
Since it seems that Patreon (or perhaps its google?) has decided to break down embeds for now, you can open the docs by clicking >>>here<<<.A bit of a transitional chapter, but once I started writing, I realised I couldn't just ignore certain build-ups and problems and I have to let the characte...
Chapter 6 of No Joy in Command is out for Squires!
EDIT: I don't know why Patreon has decided to needlessly play around with the previous working embed links, but I suppose I have to link things directly. Chapter link here.Things happen in this chapter(things that aren't fishing, I mean). Sleepy af. My editors are awol, and chapter is mighty...
Chapter 05 of No Joy is out for Squires!
A bit chunkier and later chapter than usual, but I closed my eyes to take a short nap and a few hours sort of passed. Anyway, introducing a new PoV always feels tricky and slow, but I think I did good here--don't shy to give me your thoughts.You can read the previous chapters in the collection.
Chapter 46 of Convergence of Fates(CoF) is out for Squires!
Apologies for the delay, something urgent popped up irl and ate almost all of my Thursday. Anyway, after being awake for thirty hours, I finally finished. Chapter is mostly unedited, so there might be some mistakes here and there. With this, we finally finish year two with a bang.You can read the pr...
Chapter 4 of No Joy is out for Squires!
The misadventures of Jon Snow continue yet again, as his attempts to fish in peace continue being interrupted.You can read the previous chapters in the collection.
Chapter 3 of "No Joy in Command" is out for Squires!
The adventures of fisherman! Jon continue and the plot thickens!You can read the previous chapters in the collection!
Chapter 45 of Convergence of Fates (CoF) is out for Squires!
A normal-sized chapter. Wasn't nearly as late as I feared. I think the most challenging part of writing while ill is the fact that your head feels like its filled with cotton, so excuse me if there's a some more errors than usual in the chapter.Anyway, I'd love to hear your feedback, so ...
January Portrait Poll: Amelia Bones
Got a few others that aren't nearly as good but also fit very well.P.S. The CoF chapter will be a tad later than usual.
Chapter 02 of No Joy in Command is out for Squires!
Jon decides to live the life and meets people. Probably not what you expected as a chapter, but that's what the introductory chapters are for--to introduce characters and plots. Anyway, lemme know what you think in the comments.
Last SD extra - adult Calla Steelsong
Because why not?
Chapter 01 aka prologue of No Joy in Command (NJiC) is out for Squires!
Well, here we are. For this fic, I am setting my goal for an average chapter to be of 5-7k words, no more monstrously-sized 10k+ ones that get me burned out and forced me to comb over edits for days later.An obvious warning - this is a crack-taken-seriously fic. It means I won't triple down on g...
Chapter 44 of Convergence of Fates (CoF) is out for Squires!
Hmm, finally a normal-sized chapter. Things sort of happen, so let me know your thoughts. Anyway, you can read the previous chapters in the collection.
Chapter 96 of Shrouded Destiny (SD) is out for Squires!
Those of you who haven't done so already, feel free to return to 95 and give it a reread - a new PoV has been added, everything has been cleaned up and edited, and the chapter has swelled to over 14k words. Once again, my apologies for the lacklustre chapter you received previously.And well... t...
December Portrait Poll Winner - Mom Nymeria Sand. Holiday Bonus - Jon Snow/Steelsong V2.0 and King Tommen Baratheon
Anyway, I will begin this by saying that chapter 96 (the final part of the Epilogue) will be late-no later than Monday evening.I wasn't happy with how 95 came out at all. I was tired when writing it, my mind had already moved on planning No Joy in Command in detail, and the burnout of churning d...
Chapter 95 of Shrouded Destiny (SD) is out for Squires!
First Part of the Epilogue. Not an overly long piece this time, but I decided not to fall into endless details and mini plot lines that could go on forever. Might end up adding a bit more on the next edit, like I did with the previous chapter.Anyway, you can read the previous chapters in the collect...
Chapter 43 of Convergence of Fates (CoF) is out for Squires!
The longest CoF chapter to date. A bit of aftermath, spice, plot. Let me know your thoughts, and especially if anything reads off.You can read the previous chapters in the collection!
Chapter 94 of Shrouded Destiny (SD) is out for Squires!
Welp, finally back to a more moderately-sized chapters. One final bit of action. And thus ends Shrouded Destiny's main storyline. Next will be the epilogues*(no more than three of them this time, gotta downsize a bit!)I might have missed some things, but I believe I covered most of the things wi...
December Portrait Poll
Remember, AI still sucks at scars, so... yeah.
Chapter 93 of Shrouded Destiny (SD) is out for Squires!
Here comes the climax and my longest chapter to date! Not the climax you expected, but still a climax regardless. A heavy chapter, I'm not entirely happy with it and will probably do a blanket edit for polish later on, so feel free to critique/comment. On the same note, chapter 92 Jon/Robb/Ned i...
Next Story Poll Final Round
Anyway, as I promised, the top two picks get to see a final round of voting, this time exclusive. You can vote either one or the other. 1-The Black Lily:A crossover story featuring Harry Potter x Fleur Delacour reborn in Dance Era Westeros as a Blackwood and a Bracken, respectively. Rivals to lovers...
Chapter 42 of Convergence of Fates (CoF) is out for Squires!
A pretty exciting and action-packed chapter, all things considered. But oh well... let me know what you think in the comments, I appreciate the feedback. Also a warning, chapter's unedited, so you might find a random mistake or two.Anyway, you can read the previous chapters in the collection.
