Updated! Bard & Barbarian has updated over on my Patreon with Ch73: “Elsewhither Chapel,” in which Imber has a long night and an interesting morning. Because I’m similarly prone to pure twaddle. (Ah, it feels good to finally get past a Rhomiko-based hiatus for Bard & Barbarian.)
Patrons at any (paid) tier can read Bard & Barbarian!
Patreon Mailings. Just a quick peek at crops from the art cards that are going out to patrons this month. There’s still time to take the plunge and support my stories in new ways. Perks include mailings like these, access to Bard & Barbarian (an ongoing original story), narrated chapters of BnB (because Travis Baldree is amazing), and a subscription of sorts to Kimiko and the Cycle of Moons, which is currently seeing monthly updates. Check out the various tiers and choose the one that suits your needs.
June’s regularly scheduled art card features art by Jane Pica.
And one the reverse of the Quarterly Art Card, I’ve printed a brand new, original, highly exclusive missing scene for Suuzu and Akira, entitled “Nesting Instinct.” But let’s not breeze past that gorgeous art just yet. It’s being printed at 5.5″ x 8.5″ and features art by Nicko. This is just a crop. Love that body language!
Patreon is also the first place to find out about my new series. Art and character introductions and cover reveals and summaries! Take a look >>

“Such a Gentleman” is featured on the art cards going out to patrons for the regularly scheduled monthly mailing. And for the equinox, the quarterly art card will include lettering of a favorite moment from Mikoto and the Reaver Village (Amaranthine Saga, Bk4). I’ll post pictures of those when they come from the printer. ::twinkle::

Happy Lunar New Year. As per tradition, the monthly patron mailing for February involves red envelopes and lucky coins. There’s time to secure one for yourself. ::twinkle::
Updated! Bard & Barbarian has updated over on my Patreon with Ch72: “She Who Stands Between,” in which Imber has another deity to consider. Because it’s probably a bad idea to refuse a goddess.
Includes a Rhomiko Excerpt! I finally received my box of art cards from the printer for the January mailing (better late than never). They include an excerpt from the upcoming series finale, Rhomiko and the Confirmed Bachelor, which I’ll need to push off another month. Probably looking at a March release now. If you want to get in on this lovely art card (5×7″ on heavy linen paper), today’s the last day to become a patron at the appropriate tier (Sparkle on up will be included in this one).

Rhomiko Teasers. The monthly mailing for January includes Rhomiko, the unique person that Hisoka-sensei carried home after the events of Book 6. And because we’re getting closer to the release of Rhomiko and the Confirmed Bachelor, I’ve included an excerpt from Bk7 on the card’s reverse. To capture one for yourself, become a patron at the appropriate tier. Teaser:
Rhomiko is neither male nor female (non-binary), and it was fun to work with Mart to make sure their appearance sends mixed messages.
