About the serial edition

This serial edition will share the completed rough draft. Nikki reserves the right to revise it before final publication, though the hope is to keep changes small. The full trilogy is plotted, and no major story changes are anticipated.

Every chapter will be free here one week after its Patreon release.

LETTERS, OCCASIONALLY

A little closer to the story.

New chapters, notes from the writing desk, and a few things from behind the scenes.
