Rejigging Schedules
Updated! Bard & Barbarian has updated over on my Patreon with Ch63: “Twiggen Trapping,” because there’s plenty of ways to interrupt the tedium, provided you have the right bait. ::twinkle::

Doing His Part
Magical Mountains. Master Sculptors. World Travelers. While Galleries of Stone sits solidly in the #CozyFantasy category, the sequel series is as adventurous as Tupper Meadowsweet’s younger brother, who finally has his turn in the limelight. Farley plans to go everywhere, try everything, and love every minute of it. If you enjoyed the original trilogy & always wished to see more of that world, Journeymen of Stone will give you that chance. Today’s digital release will (eventually) be followed by a print & audio editions. Thanks to everyone who trusts my writing enough to embark on adventures from another pen name. ::twinkle::
Ursa superstition. Pika bards. Fwan twins. Mard pirates. Basq custom. Clow keepers. Tisk lords.
Farley Meadowsweet always planned to travel beyond the quiet Flox village where he was born. He’s finally, finally on his way to greatness, alongside Dessa, the mountain who called him, and Torio Kite. The two men share a unique affinity for stone, which makes them perfect for a dangerous vocation, hunting rogue statues known as the Misbegotten.
Aboard the Moontide, the newest ship in the Harrow fleet, Farley must deal with Larkin Rakefang. Aurelius and Ulrica’s fourth son is less than thrilled with the rite of passage his father set—keeping the Flox alive during a journey that spans continents.
Release Day: May 23, 2023

Read First. Farley kicks off a new series, but it definitely follows in the footsteps of Galleries of Stone. You can read (or listen) to the original trilogy now!

TIME SKIP
Early in the spring of 11 N.S., a little more than a year before
Kyrie and Lilya will attend summer courses at Wardenclave,
which means Stately House is setting up for the fourth book
in the Amaranthine Saga, Mikoto and the Reaver Village.

Apology
Glow Up. Not everybody has the luxury of dropping by Travis Baldree’s discord during the narration of Lord Mettlebright’s Man, but here’s something we can all enjoy. When it was time to create a cover for Suuzu and the Nine Nippets of Legend, Jacques proved to be a trendsetter. (Is anyone really surprised?) And so the cover for Kimiko and the Cycle of Moons (Amaranthine Interludes, #3) needed a glow up in order to nail the line look. ::twinkle::
As of… hmm, yesterday, I believe? Patreon has done away with their goals. So I no longer have a community goal (400 patrons) to work toward in order to help rally support. Instead, I’ve decided to simply set a start date. In order to celebrate the release of the final book in the Amaranthine Saga, I’ll kick off Kimiko and the Cycle of Moons. Here are some of the questions I’ve already been fielding:
Will this be another 100-word chapter story, like LMM?
Nope. Kimi2 will have chapters much in line with the books in the Amaranthine Saga. The completed story will be a full-length novel.
How often will you update?
At the beginning, I can only promise 1 chapter a month. However, once I finish Bard & Barbarian, another of my Patreon exclusive serials, I’ll be able to boost the frequency of posts.
Do I have to become a patron to read along?
Yes. If you want to read the chapters as they’re posting, you’ll need to become a patron. Access to Kimiko and the Cycle of Moons will begin at the Twinkle tier ($4/month). If that’s not an option, then hang in there. Once the book is complete, I’ll publish it: print, digital, and audio.
Will Travis Baldree be narrating the book?
Not in a serial format, like he does for Bard & Barbarian. But I’ll schedule him to read the story once it’s complete. If the timing works, audio will release alongside the print & digital editions. But that’s a future 4thy problem. We’ll get there!
Is there a start date?
Rhomiko and the Confirmed Bachelor is currently slated for an October release, so … around then. More details when I know them.
With every kiss he accepts, her claim on him wins hearts the world over.
Readers have often asked for more of Kimiko Miyabe’s courtship of Eloquence Starmark. Their grand cycle is a tale I’ll be telling as a Patreon-exclusive serialization. Chapters will begin posting in Autumn 2023. Their story will range from the seamstress’s workroom at the Starmark compound to the forming of fresh triads at New Saga High School. And you can look forward to all the drama at Kikusawa Shrine: three sisters, twelve kisses, and the long-awaited stirring of a sleeping landmark. To follow along, become a patron! Cozy Fantasy. Slice-of-Life. Family. Courtship.
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. Ch53, “Bog” just went live for those in qualifying tiers. AND Ch49, “Marshmallow Wargoat” 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 >>
Back at it, with more of a normal day. Sorry for the late notification. Travis started early, and I was in the middle of posting Bard & Barbarian stuffs, and … bah. He just finished Chapter 100 of LMM. More before the lunch break!
FORTHRIGHT
