Important Update and potential changes (Patreon)

Hello there my dear Patrons.

First of all, I wanted to say a big thanks for the continued support I've received for Azarinth Healer. I love writing it and bringing you the mostly action packed adventures of Ilea. You know I don't usually bore you with these kind of updates and personal anecdotes but now I thought it necessary.

A gloomy tone, yes, but don't worry. I don't plan to end the story anytime soon. Too many things still yearn to be explored, too many creatures are left unchallenged. Also, my income literally depends on it :P.

However, I've been writing the story for over two years now and sometimes I can't help but miss the simplicity of the early days. When Ilea couldn't teleport out of every situation, when she couldn't regenerate her head or defy creatures of incomprehensible power.

These things are fun, and we certainly needed some time and effort to get there. I do plan to let things fruition, to have fun with coming Evolutions and power spikes. But just as much as Ilea has grown into the absolute monster she is now, I've learned a lot as a writer.

In the past year, I sometimes tried to work on other stories, collecting ideas and building worlds. After a few first chapters, one of which I even shared here, I finally managed to write something I was happy with.

I already submitted the first chapter to Royalroad, where it should be approved soonish. Attached to the post, you'll find EPUB and PDF versions of the first five chapters. I won't post them here separately to make sure you're not hyped by the updates and find nothing related to Azarinth Healer.

If you're interested in a fantasy litrpg with soulslike (dark souls/Bloodborne) and arpg (diablo/PoE) elements blended together into an action slice of life story, do give it a shot and let me know what you think of the beginning.

Now, how is this relevant to Azarinth Healer? Well, I've been thinking about splitting up my time investment into both stories, instead of focusing fully on AH. With it being creative work, I found it's important to me that I try new things and branch out at least a little.

This process is still ongoing and I'm not sure yet how exactly I want to allocate my time. I do believe that it would help my creativity and the quality of both stories, if I at least split it up somewhat. I'm thinking maybe 3 Azarinth chapters per week and 2 Leaves chapters.

The schedule is not yet changed and if I do decide to alter the releases, I'll make sure to inform you all beforehand and would implement them only after the respective next billing period on Patreon. So that you can drop your subscription in case the reduction is too much for you to justify paying money for.

I think that's most of what I wanted to say. Nothing's fully decided yet so let me know about your thoughts and inputs.

Thanks and a good weekend to you all :).
