I haven't had very many good ideas for blog titles lately, have I?

But completely aside from that, I'm working on another story. Yes, another one- this'll be my, oh, what's the number at again? I've forgotten it.

Let's be honest.

The huge in-story time gap between where I'm writing and where I'm publishing (in Accidental Invasion) has been... Defeating, to say the least.

As a result, I've chosen to adjust the benefits to my Patrons. Before, it was specifically weeks of Early Access. Now, it's chapters... and only one per tier, rather than two per. Also, Platinum- which used to be "all that's cleared the editors"- is now just five chapters.

Hey.

So you might know that Just Like Magic of Old kinda stopped being updated about five and a half months ago.

I think I've just discovered the reason for that, while rereading the first chapter, which hooked in so many and was so amazing, despite (originally) being written in first-person.

So... Some time ago, I completely missed when the first of my three 'Goals' on Patreon was reached. Forgot all about it, I think. And looking at the remaining goals, I need to rework them...

But anyways, that first goal was a mere $100/month, and it's been reached. And of course, my promise related to that goal: I'll get myself a profile picture.

SPOILER ALERT!

Huge spoilers follow for future events. Also, math, but not nearly as much as previously.

On 7th October, 1995, Delores Umbridge passed Educational Decree number Twenty Four, which "disbanded" all groups of three or more students. These groups could seek permission from her to reform- but at what cost?

Specifically, to her?

Once upon a time, I set up my Patreon account, and started attaching links to it with each chapter I posted. I think I started that practice during The Gate, as well as the early access.

Yes, I know I'm on hiatus. I still am.

Spoiler alert for my stories, by the way. You have been warned.

But I'm writing occasionally, and it looks like I'll be able to end the hiatus sooner than I thought. But I'm looking at the outline for one of my Harry Potter crossovers, and I want to write a song for the characters to sing in the story. I'd like to write the full song, though.

For the last couple of weeks, I've been on a semi truck. For the couple of months before that, my writing was next to nonexistent because of various family problems. And I don't expect things to get better for another few weeks at least. But don't worry, I'm still thinking of you- of everyone, not just my paying patrons.

So, in light of this inactivity, I've done a few things.

On my last blog post, I mentioned the great parts of OtIoPW's outline that got missed, and talked of rewriting the story in place. I've been very reluctant to do that, even though the response on that post was generally affirmative, because I would be transferring some 55 chapters to "Side Stories of Crazy" to be stored out-of-the-way. That's nearly 85% of the written material- and the comments would not go with it!

So I've been doing a lot of rereading lately. On the Implications of Parallel Worlds, The Boy who Disappeared, even The Gate. Just today, I reread the outline I wrote for OtIoPW... and realized that there were several great plot points noted inside of it that were skipped by the fact that I didn't use the outline. Had I used that outline, and stuck to it, I'd be publishing chapter sixty or seventy today (well, yesterday now, since it's just past midnight), rather
