May '25 recap, June '25 plans
🕑 Added 2025-05-30 01:00:04 +0000 UTCIt's almost June!
Here's what I posted in May:
The Masseuse, Chapters 8-13 (a remaster)
Dungeon Mistress: Session 5 (the finale!)
All told, without the Q&A stuff and the Masseuse chapters, it's nearly 40k words of new fiction, making it my most productive month ever
21k of that is the Dungeon Mistress finale. I know. I don't believe it either. Whew.
That's absolutely not a sustainable word count for me month-to-month, and I'm still getting a little caught up from the behemoth that was the Dungeon Mistress finale. But I think we ought to be back to my vaguely predictable release schedule of Monday releases for new writing and building a bit of a backlog so that if I'm sick, slow, or on vacation, that release schedule continues.
Anyway, on to the next month. As mentioned, the focus this month is exclusively on advancing the series.
My plan so far for June is to release:
The Thaumaturge chapters 12 and 13 (a second chapter was the reader poll result -- ask and ye shall receive!)
Speedrunner 0.1
A Hospital Stay, Part 7
...but June has five Mondays in it, it turns out. And that's only four new releases! So there'll likely be one more chapter of one of those three series -- we'll see how the initial writing in the month goes.
In addition, you can expect another batch of Masseuse [Remastered] chapters.
Thanks for the engagement in the Dungeon Mistress Wrap-Up thread; I'll probably continue to do those periodically, as I finish series (or story arcs within series, for the longer-running works like Thaumaturge).
And, especially, thanks for reading!
