Okay really important IOB announcement. I somehow completely missed posting an entire chapter months ago. I have no idea what happened. It's possible it could have accidentally been deleted. Either way, I am so sorry for any confusion and you are all so lovely to have just gone with the flow. Please re-read *The Price of War* which takes place in Rix. I'm terribly sorry and thank you so much for your understanding.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to address Human.
I am planning to have it come back from hiatus in 2022 but I can't make any promises, hence there having been no official announcement. To be honest, Human has occupied my entire being since chapter one in January of 2019. I posted everyday for about 150 chapters which is roughly 5 months. And that means writing a chapter everyday for 140 days because I only had 10 chapters planned out when I first started Human.
I love Human, I love the characters, I am so very grateful for the success and enjoyment expressed by the readers, and I am sorry to have been so inconsistent over the past months to a year.
The thing that changed was honestly, happiness. So much happened in my life that I realized how valuable my time was with my family and being able to support them, especially as medical and life issues started to become more apparent to me. I was also very depressed during this pandemic and writing Human started to feed that depression, instead of being an escape from reality.
I will finish Human when I have the time to do it justice and when I am ready, but I really want to remind people: Human is free. I don't have a partnership with Tapas, I don't make any money off of it, I just write it because I love to tell stories. I do make money off of Patreon through early release and monthly extras, but the novel itself is free. That is a ton of time and effort to put into something when there are other pressing things like time with family, rent, food, expenses, etc on one's mind.
So I will be back with Human, I am so very grateful for those of you still interested in the story and it's conclusion. I hope to see you all when I return and thank you so much for understanding.

Hey friends! I'm sorry I'll be missing this week's Human update! I just moved and everything is still completely in shambles and my computer is not even plugged in.
I will be back next week. Thanks for always being so understanding! (I'm lucky In Our Blood and Loveswept are both complete so I can just do the minor edit/post off of my phone!)
Have a great week, stay safe and happy!

You can get one month of early release chapters for all three series and extra content on my **Patreon**:

Hi friends!
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Hope you're all doing well. I'm so excited for this year to be over. PLEASE BE A GOOD ONE 2021! TTnTT
I just wanted to share with you this super cute comic I just discovered! I think it's still on the front page of Tapas but check it out if you want a unique, heartwarming, feel good story! I've been binging it! (I think it's pretty big on Webtoons but I'm never on that site. It's still pretty small on Tapas so thought I'd give the creator a shoutout!)
https://tapas.io/series/BAKAPHIN
Can't get over the cuteness!
