Weekly Update - 12/13/23
🕑 Added 2023-12-14 02:58:31 +0000 UTCWhat a busy and impactful week this has been, and there's quite a bit more coming. I've made a lot of progress getting caught up on the backlog of commissions, and so I'm going to keep on rolling with that, trying to get fully caught up and *gasp* maybe even a little ahead of schedule. That may have been because my usual appointments (poker night, board game night, pub night) are all basically on hiatus until the new year. Also, I'm going to be traveling next week to go back and visit family for the holidays, so there will be no official updates on either 12/22 or 12/25 (which is Christmas, so you know, makes sense, right?)
QT2:19 will drop on 12/29 and I'm officially taking 1/2/24 off to celebrate the New Year. Now, all that said, there will be a ton of content dropping over the rest of the month besides 2:19, including the next chapter of Breakpoint and alpha posts for Devil's Details, Pack Of His Own, Aisling's Antics, Neon Stonehenge and Fertile Grove. If there was an alpha post of any of those commissioned works posted last month, it'll be reposted as an all patrons post when the alpha of the next one goes up. (I think that's just Pack and NS, but I'll double check to be sure. Devil's Details is picking up after a bit of a hiatus, so DD10 was the most recent chapter until I sent DD11 to its commissioner last month, and when I send them DD12 this month, we'll start up again with 11 in alpha this month, and for everyone next month. Fertile Grove was going through a similar mess, but I got a chapter out to its commissioner last week, and I'm hoping to get another one done before the end of the month to get caught up there, but if anything's slipping to next month, it's the other FG.) I've also got a commission for a new QT spinoff that I've got to get the first chapter done for at some point over the next few days, but that'll go to its commissioner exclusively first. Early chapters of new projects tend to be a bit of a dance.
As a reminder, QT2:20 won't drop until 1/30/24 (it was the first thing I put on the calendar for the new year) and it will be the only QT2 chapter for that month, mostly because it's a beast of a thing, and I knew that when I started outlining it. There's so much going on that all wants to happen around the same time, and if you remember the first book of QT, chapter 20 there was basically four chapters in one, so maybe that's a tradition for Quaranteam - big ass chapter 20s.
I'm trying to get ahead because in February, I'm going to actually take a bit of a vacation and travel for fun (and not for work) and relax a bit, but to do that, I need to have some work done in advance, so I'll be hoping to keep this energy up for the next month or so. We'll see. That might be untenable, but I'm doing pretty good so far, having done 5k words about every 36 hours for the last week.
Anyway, public releases will still carry on, and I know some people have been delighted to see the first chapter of the 10-part Aisling's Antics drop on public sites. Keep in mind, that one is twice as long as Piper's Prelude and McCallister's Madness, because Ash's story touches on a lot of different points. I'm working on part 9 right now, so we're nearing the finale. You'll enjoy it, promise.
Public release schedule should be something like this: 12/9 - Quaranteam: Aisling's Antics 1; 12/16 - QT2:8, Devil's Details 8; 12/23 - BTS 7, QT2:9; 12/30 - Amor Ex Machina 1, QTAA 2; 1/6 - Threadbinders 6, QT2:10, 1/13 Pack 5, Threadbinders 7.
That just about covers it. Have good holidays, folks!
