Hi all! 
          	
          	And what if I announced a hiatus for The Thorn? 
          	
          	I'm not going to, but I am going to announce that Gabriel's long-speculated POV is up! 
          	
          	I have scheduled the rest of the chapters (doesn't even reach 50) and they will be uploaded regularly. I am working a 9-5 internship and time is scant, but alas we make time for the joys of life. Happy reading!

I have had this idea with a sotry of mine but it is totaly up to you.
          
          Thorn seems like it has a huge world and many different countries (I was like more then half asleep when I read half lol. I got hooked and refused to leave ;) ) I have many countries for my tirlliogy but I have been thinking that it is kinda unessacary to have like more than four/ five chapters *sigh emoji* --
          
          Enough side tracking-
          
          Totally up to u but I have been thinking of making storied for the other countries in the trillogies universe. I think it might be a good idea for the countries in Thorn as well.
          
          
          *laugh emoji with one tear* Im going to stop rambling now

Hi all! 
          
          Just scheduled Chapter 32 of The Thorn for tonight at exactly the stroke of the new year (for me)! Have you been waiting to read about how Leonore [REDACTED VERB] into a [REDACTED NOUN]? Here you go! 
          
          I've finished the story from Letters to Epilogue, polished it as I went, and the bonus *eyes emoji* chapter is in the works. I will be making a PDF available as soon as I format it properly. 
          
          Also, getting my sketching chops back so possibly Gabriel's armor visuals? Leonore's various gowns and workwear? We'll see. Weekly updates to be expected. 
          
          Happy reading, and happy new year!

            Happy New year to u 2. I'm like almost 2 months late lol

Also, just saw that The Thorn is ranked no. 1 in the #butch tag, out of 1.2k stories? That's crazy; thanks everyone!

Hi all!
          
          Came by to say that The Thorn is pretty much finished, and only the epilogue needs work. A total of 48 regular chapters!
          
          Anyway, bonus  chapter Gabriel POV? Yes? No?

Hello all!
          
          Season’s greasons! Happy holidays! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate!
          
          It’s Crimmas Eve for us tonight, and I’ve scheduled the new update for The Thorn at the stroke of twelve (GMT +8 for me).
          
          In other news, I’ve set up a Ko-fi! Because I figured I should put the formatted PDFs of my stories somewhere for posterity. Link is in my bio.
          
          In other other news, I’ve renamed my YA boarding school story “Expectations” to “Ardenstone Academy”! While Expectations was a fun title at the time, I like AA better. Yahoo!
          
          That’s it for now. Happy reading!

Hello all! Writing to let you all know that we have around thirty or so chapters left for The Thorn! I've written most of them! 
          
          Once I get that done, I'll continue development on Book 2 of the DA. 
          
          In other news, the verdict is in on my undergrad thesis! I'm graduating! I'm in software dev and networking, but prior to that I got into a literature program—something I applied to, out of passion—at a different state university. I didn't go with it for job market reasons, which is a common tragedy these days. 
          
          Happy reading!

@the-red-jester Thank you! Working on both of them at alternating times actually! Helps with burnout
