Dear small–but–incredibly-loyal following,
          	
          	Thank you so much for your patience regarding TKP 2 – The Long Shadow (TLS). I know I haven't been updating this release as quickly as my original because I've been preoccupied writing my very own debut ORIGINAL novel inspired by some of the ideas from TKP I never got a chance to flesh out. 
          	If you haven't already, please go and check out 'Between the Lines' where I'm posting anything related to that story that can't make the cut (and some little in-world tangeants to help to bring it alive!) Any support for Between the Lines (BtL) would be endlessly appreciated!
          	
          	If that's not your thing though – and I totally understand – then you'll be pleased to know I've just uploaded 3 new chapters to TLS with more on the way soon!
          	
          	Warmest wishes and Happy Reading,
          	Writer 2128

Dear Readers, 
          
          Thank you so much for your continued and loyal support of 'The Killing Protocol'! I'm in awe that it's had almost 150 reads – that's absolutely incredible! I'm so overwhelmed with emotion. 
          
          So here's where I need your help: the final chapter of this book is due to drop on Monday (21st July). I'm dropping the last two chapters and then a few hours later dropping an Epilogue. The thing is, the story could reasonably end there with a few unanswered questions, or it could continue into a sequel, but – as writing a fanfic of this quantity with the level of quality you've come to expect from me is a big undertaking – I want to be sure that another instalment would be appreciated before I commit. Therefore, PLEASE can you do 3 things for me? 
          1 – Please, please, please follow me so I know there are people out there who care! Thank you to those who've done so already!
          
          2 – Please give some of my favourite chapters some votes to help the story be seen/boosted by the algorithm!
          
          and
          
          3 – Please comment to let me know there's at least one person out here who would be interested in seeing TKP continue.
          
          Again, thank you for all the support and for the readership I already have! It means a lot to have you guys! When I first started writing this I assumed it would get 0 readers and get lost in the internet so THANK YOU SO MUCH! Please continue to enjoy the ride as the story starts to amp up to the conclusion and – if you want – come along with me in a possible next story picking up where this one will leave off!
          
          Again, thank you for everything,
          Lots of Love,

Hey ,
          
          OMG I just read your story and I couldn't put it down. It's seriously incredible. Your writing is so engaging that I started imagining how amazing it would be as a comic.
          
          So, I'm actually a commissioned artist and I create comics, manga, character art (including OCs), cover art, PFPs, and banners. I would totally love to turn your awesome story into a comic. No pressure at all, just thought it would be super cool to see your work like that.
          
          If you are interested, hit me up on Discord ( username - bennett_lol ) and we can chat about the details. Can't wait to hear from you.
          
          Best,
          Bennett

Hey Writer2128!
            
            Thank you so much for the kind reply, it honestly means a lot to hear that! 
            Your writing truly pulled me in, and I totally respect your view on whether it suits the comic format or not.
            
            I just wanted to share the idea because the imagery and emotion in your story were so vivid, it naturally sparked that comic-style vision in my head! Even if a comic's not the direction you're going, I'm genuinely happy to just be a reader and supporter of your work.
            
            Wishing you all the best with your writing, it really has something special!
            
            Warmly,
            Bennett

@Isla2772 Hello Isla! Thank you for your very kind comment about my writing – I really appreciate your support! I'm not sure my work would suit the comic form, but I'm very glad my writing captivated you! Honestly, that means a lot!

Dear Readers, 
          
          Firstly - I've had over 100 views now which is AMAZING!! Thank you so much everyone who's been reading along!!!!  
          
          Secondly – I'd just like to give you a heads-up that Chapter 30 (the chapter drop due on Thursday) will only be one chapter rather than the two or three I've been doing up to then. This is solely because my decision to release in 3 (and occasionally 2) chapter parts coincides with the narrative flow of the story – the idea being the cliffhangers between chapters make sense (should anyone be following my daily release schedule). In the case of Chapter 30 it stands alone well and sets up for a drop of 31, 32 and 33 which work beautifully in a set. I hope this is okay!
          
          P.S – if you're enjoying the story PLEASE consider reviewing it and giving it a few chapter votes to help elevate it in the rankings ⬆️⬆️ and because I'd love to know what you think of the story and what you think might happen next!
          
          Thank you so much for being a part of this journey and for reading my fanfic  I still can't believe it's reached over 100 people!!!!

EDIT – I mean Chapter Thirty-One, not Thirty. My Apologies!
