Phew! It's been a while (2-3 weeks of little-to-no updates) but this week has been an explosion of words as all my projects reach a publishable state—not the least of which being the sequel to Harry Potter and the Crystal Empire:

I forgot to answer the Ask X from today's chapter of Harry Potter and the Crystal Empire. This means, by my completely arbitrary and contrived rules that I made up, that I will answer all questions posted in the next chapter. Head on over to the current latest chapter and get posting!

As always, I'll worm and wheedle my way around spoiling anything.

It has come about again that I have something special to share with every one of you. The final of four concept pieces that resulted in the coverart for Harry Potter and the Crystal Empire.

May I present, most humbly, some wonderful fanart done by the amazing Foxenawolf (FurAffinity link)!

As you can see, this lovely danger noodle shares the unique patterning of her namesake. Oh, and she's looking this way. Well, free-will was over rated...

Well, we've smashed this story into the 100k word mark in very short order. As you've no doubt seen, the first week of every month gets a whole week of writing done on it (2-3k words a day for each weekday), whereas other weeks it gets 2-3k words on Tuesdays, with up to 1k words each other night of the week (including weekends).

So, I decided to read the dang books because characterization is important.

My thoughts from the first 30 or so pages:

Damn there's some good stuff in here to use
The Dursley's descriptions somewhat don't match their movie selves (as you will find out later, I will be using something more like the book descriptions)
I came a lot closer to Harry than the movies did. The sarcasm and anger he presents right from the start is delightful. When he's getting his first letter? Glorious!

Well, maybe a kirin, but that's not a word he's likely to learn for quite a while.

As I mentioned in the last chapter's author notes, we have reached the end of the pre-written chapters. Gosh it has been a wild ride so far, right? I mean, we have complex political motives, the most adorable cuddle pile you've ever seen, and a Ron that's worth a damn!

I totally forgot to answer the reader question with this release! I am terribly sorry—it's up now.
