Suuzu’s Story

Suuzu and the Nine Nippets of Legend. Since we’re less than a month away from the release of Suuzu’s story, I’m going to begin dangling teasers here and there. This Interlude is set between the events of Bk5 and Bk6, immediately after Juuyu drops his younger brother off at Stately House.

Release Day: April 22

Bard & Barbarian

Narrated Edition. Bard and Barbarian has been posting slow and steady over on my Patreon account. Reading along is great, but supporters on some tiers can now listen along. The story is being narrated by Travis Baldree. Ch50, “The Strongest Magic” just went live for those in qualifying tiers. AND Ch46, “Armory” has unlocked for the Twinkle and Sparkle tiers.

New narrated chapters will arrive every other Wednesday, which means … there’s always something more to look forward to! Learn more about my Patreon here >>

Quarterly Art Card

Patreon Perks. One of the many little things I do for my supporters is … mail! For 2023, I committed to doing story-related mailings every month (access to those varies by tier). But the old standby is the Quarterly Art Card. This time around, I created square cards with the circlet of nippet eggs from the cover of Suuzu and the Nine Nippets of Legend (releases 4/22). On the reverse, I even included an excerpt from the soon-to-release story.

Art Card: 5.25″ x 5.25″ (felted finish)
Reverse: Excerpt from Suuzu and the Nine Nippets of Legend

Come, join the tiers! I’ll do my best to spoil you. ::twinkle::

Scribbled in Margins

Pre-Order Now! The next short story in the Songs of the Amaranthine collection will be releasing on April 4, 2023!

They were sent into solitude, yet neither of them was ever truly alone.
Wrongfully accused of insulting a man of higher rank, a bright young man is banished to a remote post where he must stand watch over a signal fire. Batu isn’t entirely alone, though. There’s an orange-robed monk who checks in on him from time to time, and he’s somehow befriended a golden eagle. But strange things begin to happen when the guard changes in the next tower over.

Qara can’t bear to face the future her father planned, so she runs away, pretending to be her older brother. But her new commanding officer isn’t so easily fooled. For her own good, she’s bundled off to a mountaintop watchtower. Qara is safe, but the cold and the solitude become too much to bear … until she befriends a wild sheep, a cheery villager, and the man in the next tower over.
