Hey, everyone, I’m so sorry there haven’t been any updates this weekend. Unfortunately I’m dealing with a serious illness in the family and will be for the foreseeable future.
          	
          	I wanted to get the latest chapters ready for you, but time has sadly not been on my side lately. I’ve been flat out all week and simply haven’t had time to edit anything.
          	
          	Sadly, because scheduled posts aren't a thing on Wattpad, I don't know how regular my updates will be over the next few months. I will try my best, but I can't make any promises. 
          	
          	However, if you don’t mind reading the unedited version, you can find the newest chapters every week on my Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/posts/27599574). My paid Patrons are already two months ahead, but I’ve been unlocking chapters in time with all the other free updates, so you can always read them over there if I fail to update here. (Don’t worry about the stars. They’re all scheduled to unlock whether I update the links page or not, so click about and see where it gets you ;).
          	
          	I will also aim to get the edited versions prepped for my website (beccalusher.com), so you can always try reading them there too.
          	
          	Thanks, as always for reading, and sorry again for falling behind.

@huby74 I'm sorry but still no progress. Writing just isn't working for me right now.

You're an amazing author I love these books there just as good as the wingborn series is I can't believe that this book could be my last  adventure in Aquila for a while

huby74

@huby74 Thank you! That's such a kind thing to say. I actually had a breakthrough recently and know where I want to take the next book now and a little more confidence in it  Unfortunately I just have no time to write at the moment. Hopefully I will have soon and I'll post it here as soon as I can.

Hope everything’s alright? Any idea when you’ll be updating Outcasts of Aquila?

starlightmagpie

@Lostsoul246 Hey, I'm sorry I haven't updated for a while. I've been toying with the idea of pulling it down actually, as I'm really not happy with the book and I can't seem to write the third one at all. 
            
            This series isn't really working for me, sadly. Normally I'd leave it for a few years and come back to it again later, but I foolishly put it out too early (I paused the WIngborn series 3/4 through book 4 for about five years).
            
            However, since I started posting, I'll continue as it isn't fair to those who are reading it. I'll probably pull it and Misfits down almost as soon as I'm done, though, and I can't promise the third book will arrive any time soon. Sorry :(
            
            Thank you for caring enough to ask. I'll update again on Friday.

@Lostsoul246 Hi, yes, sorry! I've been meaning to start posting it since the beginning of October, but life keeps getting in the way. Wattpad also temporarily kicked me out of my account, but since that's now sorted, I'm hoping to start posting this week. It's not properly edited, but if I wait for that we'll be here another year or more.
            
            So, all thing's being well, I'll begin on Wednesday with single weekly updates until things sort themselves out again. 
            
            Thanks for asking, and hopefully I'll be back with updates soon!

OMG  you are a great writer I have been reading books from wattpad and other apps and so far you're stories are one of the best I've read. Sadly I don't have money to buy the serries. How do I become a reviewer? I really want to finish the wingborn series

starlightmagpie

@0216aj Aw, thank you! The best way to become a reviewer is to leave reviews for the books on Goodreads and/or retailer sites (Amazon is the best for this, but other places like Barnes and Noble, iBooks, Kobo and such work too). If you think you could do that, send me message and we'll sort something out :)

Researching for a project of my own and I found the name Dorin with its meaning and it makes a lot of sense.
          Keep writing!! You are great and so is the writing

starlightmagpie

@Nienepieneke @Nienepieneke There are a few variants and meanings, most of which do fit pretty well (I like the Irish Doran a lot too). I love a good meaningful name and have been known to make massive lists for potential future characters. It's always fun when the meaning behind the name matches the character, it feels like sharing a secret with the author.
            
            Although, sadly, in this case it was a complete accident. I have no idea where Dhori's name came from. I don't particularly like it and have tried to change it a few times, but he wouldn't let me XD
            
            Aw, thank you! <3
