Nugar

This is Not a chapter. This is another informational for Then Be Batman.

I've been really nauseous lately and work on the next Ice Pie chapter is taking longer than usual.  As an apology, here's some notes I had for Then Be Batman I was going to send out in the future.  But it's been over a week since I sent out a chapter, so I felt the need to send out SOMETHING.  Again, I am working on Ice Pie.

Then Be Batman: chapter seven.

This is the last TBB chapter for a while.  Well, actually, I'm going to do another informational post, about where people are this early in the timeline, which I meant to do after the last chapter, and another informational bit about various batmobile efforts, but those have no fixed schedule.

Next up chapter wise will be Ice Pie. &nb...

Then Be Batman: Chapter six

Chapter six is here!  I'll post chapter five on the forums later today.  This chapter is much more upbeat and hopeful than the last one.

Had a couple people cancel their membership after the last chapter.  One guy in particular said that, with all my trouble, my writing had become bitter and cynical.

And, yo...

Then Be Batman: Chapter 5 revised and expanded.

As promised, for reasons of pace and quality, this is the redone chapter five.  This will not be posted publicly until I have chapter 6 out.

But Nugar!  Shouldn't you be resting?  You just had a stroke!

Actually, I had two (2) fucking strokes.  I feel terrible and I'm upset in ways I can't even express, because ex...

Home now.

It turned out to be TWO strokes, one right after the other.  One in my thalamus and the other in my parietal, both on the left side.  They think it was a clot, that broke off a bit and caused a second blockage.  

I still have motor function and all my memory and language, but I've lost a lot of sensation on my left side arm,...

Pretty sure I'm having a stroke.

Waiting on an amberlamps now.  Next chapter might be delayed a bit.  :/

Ice Pie: Special Bonus Chapter 1 for Cosmic

Special thanks to Cosmic for signing up for the $50 tier.  He wanted more about Anya's inventions and hobbies, particularly in filling out her room.  

I hope this is what you wanted, Cosmic!  Let me know, this is still entirely subject to editing, and I don't mind.

As a note, there have been previous 50$ tier subscribe...

Ice Pie: Chapter 18

Well, I didn't end up cutting this down the way I thought it was going to go.  In fact, it ended up long.  As in, more that twice as long as chapter 17.  And here it is, basically a day and a half later.  

I'll post the last chapter on the forums tomorrow or something.  Still want to do some editing.  Comments...

Ice Pie Chapter 17

Notes at the end of the document.  There may end up being significant additions to this.  ...Or the next chapter will be out shortly.  Don't know yet.

But, as mentioned, I will be releasing another Ice Pie chapter before I go back to Then Be Batman.

Then Be Batman: Chapter 4 revised (includes old chapter five)

This is a public post, and I will be putting this publicly on the forums here shortly.  As promised, this is the revised chapter four and five combination, for reasons of coherency, flow, and pacing.

This chapter is all about his efforts to prepare and Make Gotham Great Again.  Really, it's about his efforts without the mask. &nb...

Then Be Batman: Chapter 6

Breaking the schedule for a moment.  Chapter four, when I posted it on the forums, got some extremely well justified criticism.  The issues with flow and presentation absolutely mean I need to go back and do some serious editing.  

Chapter four will be edited, and probably combined with chapter five.  As a result, this ...

Then Be Batman: Chapter five.

Last week was rough health wise.  Sorry this is running sort of late, but I had some real bad days.  Went to the doc, got new meds last friday.  I'm pleased to report I'm experiencing less pain, and also my blood pressure is down.  It's been high as Snoop Dogg, and stubborn about lowering at all.  Now...  It's a lit...

What do you want me to work on for September?

I think most people have expressed interest in Then Be Batman, but here's a poll to be sure.

Ice Pie 16: Interlude Loid

Kinda thinky, but it's Loid.  Also, it's sort of ego stroking, self indugently wankerying, to the point I'm embarrassed to have written some of this.  But it makes sense in context.  ANYA certainly doesn't have much of an ego over her 'accomplishments'.  She's cheating and she knows it.

Then Be Batman chapter 4

Kinda late on it, sorry.  Got sick this week.  Had several pretty bad days.

Then Be Batman: Technobabble Infodump

This is not a proper chapter, and will be posted publicly. 

Research Can Be a Drudge: A Dredge Story

And now, for something different.  This is based on the horror mythos fishing game Dredge, which I rather enjoyed.  Only one chapter available for now, it'll be a while before I post any more.  

Thanks for everyone who's signed up!  I really appreciate it!

Ice Pie Chapter 15: Interlude Franky

Then Be Batman: Chapter 3

Then Be Batman: Chapter 2

Ice Pie: Chapter 14 Yor Interlude

First of the three interludes from other perspectives. 

I forgot the notes at the end of the chapter.

Given that Then Be Batman is a new story, and also has a lot of competing elements, I think a note about what it's going to be like going forward is important.  But I forgot to add the notes to the post.  So here they are.

Author’s note:

This is not a Gamer fic.

Yes, I’m using elements from the Gamer. I...

Then Be Batman: Chapter 1

This is the start of a new ongoing story I have.  I've more on this, another new story, and some new material for old stuff, including Ice Pie that will be coming in the near future.

Let me know what you think!

I'm back!

So, I announced on the 24th of July that I was restarting the patreon for August.  Unfortunately, I just found out that, given that my page was unpubished when I paused it, that message didn't go through.  So bear with me as I get this stuff straightened out.

In news:  I got sick and lost my job again.  I'm currently ha...

Patreon to resume next month!

Well, it's been just over a year, and a lot of stuff has happened.  I got that new job, which was nice.  Then I got sicker, which sucked.  Then I got better, which was nice.  Then I got sicker, and stayed sicker, and lost my job.

So that sucked.

Now I'm unemployed, basically disabled, and restarting the patreon fo...

All payments are suspended for July.

And indeed for the forseeable future.  But I'm leaving the patreon up for now.  I am busy with the beginnings of this new job, but I'm also putting together the mailing list for everyone.  

If you DO NOT want to be on the mailing list for early access to all my stories in the future, either email me, send me a message, or ju...

It's not that I lied, it's that I got distracted. Ice Pie chapter 13.

I was doing some cleanup on Ice Pie, fixing various bits people had pointed out as far back as chapter 10.  Some spelling, some grammar, some formatting, a fairly serious bit that Lord Desmond is never actually seen in public, and such.

Had some neat ideas for the future, added them at the end, and kind of hilariously, in like two hou...

Big changes coming! Good changes!

Good news everyone!  I will be closing the patreon, or maybe just inactivating it or making it free or something, at the end of this month.  

I have finally gotten a new job!  

The job starts the 27th of june, so twenty days from now.  What does this mean for my stories and subscribers?  Well, for ...

Ice Pie 12 full second draft

Combined and edited.  Added some stuff I felt it needed.

Oh, and as an announcement...

Chapter twelve is the last of Ice Pie for a while.  Next up is No Promises.  People started requesting it in May, and I'm sorry I didn't get a chapter out in May, but I'm working on one now.  Probably do at least two chapters before I do anything else, unless people keep telling me to focus on it.

Thanks for your support! 2022-06-03 07:05:08 +0000 UTC View Post
