I've also already finished chapter 5, so that will be up soon as well.
Chapter 5 will mark the first posting on other platforms, so it may be a day or two while I get my ducks in a row. Enjoy!

Sounds like I need to fiddle with the sound levels to make the background music quieter and the mic levels a little higher.

We can finally guarantee (fingers crossed) a good internet connection for streaming. That means higher video quality, which also means it's finally worth putting these up here.

It is time. I've been busy beavering away behind the scenes, and I now present to you my eighth attempt to get this right. I cannot say how much I appreciate everyone who is sticking with me this far into the game. Wow.
Here's what to expect:
Short chapters.
Four chapters published here before they go up onto the other online platforms.
A kick-ass Village Builder LitRPG with Total War, Civilization, HOMM, exploration, and dungeoneering elements.

The artwork is done! The logos will probably still get some work in the future. But for now, all that remains is to put these in the ready-for-action zone until the new DPaSW website is ready and the uploads to the other web platforms have started.
Foward!

Episode One of the new Mastering Power Fantasy Podcast. This month I discuss the financial basis of the project to become a successful author going forward, and how I intend to ensure that it is a solid one.

Trial by Conquest updates are back in action, after far too long away. Still on point for two more chapters before arc one is complete, and we're already in the final stretch for the chapter we're currently on (so, almost only one more chapter).
Also, for those of you who aren't active on Discord. I'm still recovering from something nasty in my lungs, which I picked up over the holidays. Until that's properly recovered, I won't be doing audio work, which includes the podcast. On the oth...

Okay, so when I say one more chapter, I mean two more chapters. On the plus side, we're almost done with this chapter now. *sheepishly scurries back to work*
Enjoy!

Quick status update! I'll be sending off the limited-edition prints tomorrow morning for our epic and legendary patrons. I've no idea how long it'll take to get to each of you, but please do let me know! Also, I'm very interested to know how the packaging I've chosen holds up to international mailing.

Small update to finish off this chapter.
I've also decided that we actually need two more chapters to finish off this arc, not one. The next few days are going to be quite writing heavy, I suspect.
Changes:
The chapter name, Stand Together or Die Alone as been changed to Packing up for Lands Unknown, and that name has now been moved to the next chapter.
Alfric's Spider is now called Thorax.
Draft Part Update: 700 words
