If you're a fan of my previous novels, I'm excited for you to sink your teeth into this latest installment! If you haven't read the others yet, I encourage you to do so as Part 4: The Great Matriarch relies heavily on previous knowledge of characters and plotlines. 

The Tale of The Butterfly and The Crane (not necessary but better understanding if you do)

Xièzhì (not necessary but better understanding if you do)

I had previously planned on this novel to be released between the end of October and end of December. Life had other plans, however, and I was unable to write for a good portion of that time. 

I am now setting my sights on a February - March time frame. I'm already beginning the last quarter of this book, so time should fly by quickly now. Many of the future chapters are already written in segments. I just have to piece them together. Then, I'll do another edit (I always edit as I go) and work on the chapter headings. 

As for release dates, I'm thinking I'll do what I did with Mooncakes and publish daily.
