For those who haven't heard, Kindle Vella will be closing down shortly, which sucks. However, I do have a Patreon. patreon.com/KSwanson
          	
          	I'll be posting at least one chapter a week for Academy At War book 3, as well as art work and inspiration for characters and the story. 
          	
          	For those of you curious about Unbroken, I'll be posting frequent chapters of that as well. It's being completely rewritten because I wasn't happy with the pacing of my WP version. 
          	The characters are getting an overhaul, making them more 3 dimensional. New characters will be introduced. New facets of their lives will be explored. 
          	If you click on the link to take you to my patreon, you'll be able to read the first 3 chapters of both stories for free (once chapters 2 and 3 of Unbroken get posted)

It's time for an update! 
          
          1. For those in the US interested in Academy At War 3, it is currently being published on Kindle Vella. I still very much love the story and writing, but I write a lot better when I have a short term goal to work toward. 
          
          2. Because I wanted to work on a contemporary story as well, I've decided to completely revamp a fan favorite *cough*Unbroken*cough*. It will also be going up on Vella in a few months. 
          
          For those who can't/don't want to read it on Vella, once the books are complete, I have to leave them up for a month, then I'll remove them from Vella and put them up on Amazon (and Kindle Unlimited)

That's so exciting! I remembered how much I loved this book.

It will not be because I was completely unhappy with the pacing and the way it was turning out. And unfortunately, I now need to actually make money.

@ladybugtastic does that mean Unbroken won't be finished on Wattpad?

@polarbearsandcoffee Thank you so much! I had to put the project on hold for the summer because my kids were home and every single time I attempted to work on anything, they suddenly needed me. BUT, today is their first day back to school, which also means I get to start working on my writing projects again! 
            
            If you're in my FB group, I plan to post teasers and snippets again starting next week. :)

For those of you who enjoy Kindle Vella, Calling All the Monsters book 1 is complete. For the next couple of weeks, I'll be updating the book with some scenes from the guys' pov from before the actual story started.
          
          And, for those who haven't seen, Academy At War book 2 will be going up on Amazon March 15! As of right now, it's a thicccc boi. If you read the book on WP way back when, the completed project is almost nothing like the original, and the length of the book has nearly doubled!

For those following my Kindle Vella story, Calling All the Monsters, another chapter went live today. Only 6 chapters left before the end of season 1!

          For those waiting on the next book in my Academy At War series, I'm excited to say the pre-order has finally gone live. books2read.com/Death-Stalking

I wasn’t sure on how else to reach you, but I read becoming of us/hidden in plain sight and I finished it and for some reason the second book wouldn’t let me read it. Is it not out for the public yet cause I had to pre buy it and then said it wouldn’t be in my library till March of 2023. Or at least that’s what the Amazon kindle was saying

BridgetWilson9

Oh ok thank you I was super confused. I’m so excited I lived reading it on here and was finally excited to read it on the kindle that I finished it in less than a day !

@BridgetWilson9 I don't log onto WP as often anymore, but another way to reach me is through FB. Either through my profile: https://www.facebook.com/KSwansonAuthor 
            or my reader group:

@BridgetWilson9 Book 2 is complete, but I'm going through it one last time and cleaning it up. That should only take a week or two, and once that's done, I'll move the date up. I'm hoping to release it by the end of the month, but since I don't have the finalized copy yet, I wanted to give myself some wiggle room, just in case something goes wrong.
