So what would you like to Ask Jim Butcher?

Leave your questions for the Dresden author here! 

Todays Livestream if you missed it!

Patreon is keeping me floating!

YouTube has dunked my channels ad rates again. It’s okay! I just need to look into why this is happening. My channel’s have plummeted to about half of what they were.

Combine that with my videos seemingly being recommended less, and it’s a tight spot to be in. I’m still comfortable and okay (seriously don’t w...

The next bit of writing.

So I am going to be honest, I do not love my last two short stories. They are not up to the bar I want to hold myself too. 

This next piece I am working on will be up to that bar. 

In fact, I am hoping it will turn into the prologue to the actual book I am working on. (I know, hundreds of pages into my b...

RETALIATION

Here is the third short story. I linked to the google doc with a view-only link due to patreon not being the most pleasant to read on. ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kP_TCrJ0Nq77HzvYqHhC...

Sent Off Next Short Story For Review

Sent off to my reviewer (Papa Greene), so it will hopefully be posted by the end of the week. 

This one has been delayed because basically I think it might bother some people. It revolves around what is essentially a terrorist act against the empire. It starts from the stand point of one of those involved justifyin...

Snow Drift (Audio By MY BROTHER!)

My brother is getting started in voice work and did the last short story I posted, Snow Drift! He's got a great voice and edited it himself. 

Enjoy if you're curious :) 

100k Livestream!

I know many of you want to see the live streams after the fact. Here is the first! 

What questions do you all have for R. F. Kuang?! The author of the Poppy War and Dragon Republic!

We are scheduling an interview and I would love for you all to be able to ask any questions you have.

Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart to each and every one of you. This has been the most exciting year of my life, and it would not have been without you. High school Daniel was kinda ashamed of how nerdy he was. Adult Daniel is now paying rent from talking about the books he loves. 

I am hop...

Next short story... I deleted.

So I finished the next short story I was going to release. I edited it myself and gave it one final read-through before handing it over to you all. 

Coming at it from the perspective of a reader, It was BORING TRASH.

With my review hat on, I saw it lacking substance of any kind outside of a quirky character s...

Latest big upgrade!

So I’ve been saving the Patreon earnings for a while now. I want to future proof the channel so I splurged on a NICE camera. You will now be seeing my face through the Sony a6400!

It’s a big purchase but it’s a bit of a birthday present for myself.

A Question for you all...

If you could ask Brandon Sanderson one question, what would it be?

Let's avoid technical things about his magic systems.

Audio Book Ramblings/Mistakes

If y'all want to see how awkward I am in the audio booth, here are some outtakes/ramblings. Thanks to Merphy for sending me these. 

Your Feedback!

I have appreciated the critical feedback I have gotten for my last short story so damn much. You all don't even understand. It seems the general consensus is not as good as the first, but not the worst thing ever written. 

For my first attempt writing action, I'LL TAKE IT! :)

I have been combing over a lot of...

Snow Drift

Well, here it is. This is my first endeavor into writing action. Let me know how I did! 

Snow Drift

The sting of the mountain winds slashed across Nik’s face as he peered over the icy ridge at an Ithaian villa, surrounded by several smaller structures sitting low on the tundra. In the Ithanian st...

First Draft of Snow Drift is DONE!

I need to go over it this weekend, but after completely restarting several times, I think I am okay with that I have now. 

It made me learn I HATE to write action, so I certainly need to get better at it to fix that problem. Writing action makes me feel like some kind of tool who is obsessed with his characters bei...

Life Update

So things are absolutely insane and everything is fine. 

My work has decided to make my last two weeks a full on tidal wave of work, so keeping my head above water is harder than ever. Luckily I am almost there! The light at the end of the tunnel is hitting my metaphorical face. 

It does mean that betwee...

I am going to be a full time YouTuber

Thanks to all of the support I get from you wonderful people, I was able to hand in my two weeks today. I am achieving a dream and I cannot express how grateful I am. 

I will not be working any less, but I will sure be putting a lot more working into the content you all enjoy. 

Thank you for helping some...

I am going to need beta readers.

Well with the writing picking up again in a couple of weeks, I am going to need beta readers. If you are interested, just comment below! 

Who Should I Interview?

So I plan on trying to interview more people on my channel. The first one is already scheduled for this Saturday. That being said, I want to talk with who you are most interested to hear me speak with. Comment down below who you would like to see on the channel. Any youtuber, author, editor, ect,. 

I really will tr...

Good and Bad News

So as of right now I will have to (probably rather predictably) delay the release of Snow Drift. I thought LA would be filled with down time and hours of writing. What it has been is me not being able to stop moving between meeting with people at all. Today is the first day of actually having downtime and I really want to spe...

Snow Drift Will Be Finished This Weekend.

The second patreon short story I have been working is almost done. I have written pages on pages and cut it down. Way down. I am proud of it, and the final work should be posted here before Monday. 

Oh, and yeah. The title will be Snow Drift. 

WE HAVE MERCH!

You all get the first look. Please tell me what you think! Let me know if you spot problems, see designs on one piece of merch you want on another, etc,. 

I am going to look into getting a unique patreon sticker just for you all designed soon.  

City State of Itha

So with my writing suffering recently due to my limited time with work, I figured I would keep everyone satiated by giving a breakdown the setting for the upcoming story. Love y'all and hope you enjoy. 

Setting: 

Itha is the last free land on the continent from The Empire. The people of the city state em...

Keep this on the Patreon but....

...merch is coming. Pips, Fantasy News, and general fantasy themed. 

This story is getting... bigger.

So the war in the mountains turns out to be an idea I REALLY want to explore. It seems to be turning into more than just a small story. I might have chapters here. 

Second Short Story Sneak Peak

So for this short story, I will be jumping to the war in the mountainous north.

Itha has resisted falling to the Empire for so long, but with all other Kingdoms bent, the full weight of the emperors forces are climbing to their high castles. 

I like the idea of sending soldiers to fight at high altitudes for ...
