T-A-G is behind schedule...hoping for first beta this summer.

Interestingly, you are the third person in the last week (and ever) to ask about Patreon. He is not there yet, but thinking about it.

We just have normal/traditional patreons that support demonic artists and protect them from other powerful demons.

One big advantage demons have is that we don't need to eat, unlike weak kneed humans like T-A-G, and if you don't mind being rural, housing is cheap, just find an empty cave! Of course, internet connections and electricity are a bit pricey, particularly if you live in a cave...

It is totally worth it if you get to hang with me!

me too

ditto

Definitely!

Absolutely!

What a fine idea!

For dinner!

Right now!

Bye Bye!

Yes, T-A-G has been doing that himself!

Actually, he found that filling in details for really minor characters for X-Ray led him to sections he'd nearly forgotten about, so there was quite a bit of random acts of rereading going on.

Of course the problem with that, is then he finds still more errors. In particular horrible misspellings of lesser characters that show up a few times, but aren't famous enough to remember proper spelling all the time.

Correcting errors is a fraught proposition because there are two mainline versions Dead Tree and Kindle and both and both are formatted quite differently and if not done properly the book gets hung up and doesn't show up properly. So you basically have to fix them twice per book.

Of course, if you fix them too much then they get out of sync with the audio...

T-A-G is still behind schedule....sheesh.

If he would just stop this day job thing and go hungry for 6 plus months, he'd be done already. He did that before, taking 6-9 months off and just not eating and sleeping on the street, but...apparently he doesn't want to do that anymore. Talk about lazy!

He says he doesn't like writing in snow drifts during subzero temperatures! Makes his fingers numb on the keyboard. Whine Whine Whine.

Although now that I think about it, he never was on the street, and he never lost any weight. Hmm. Wonder if he's lying to me? You'd think not eating for 6 to 9 months, as a human, he'd lose some weight. But he's as fat as ever. Hmmm. I wonder if he's a demon? He doesn't smell like buttah. More like garlic....

Well, at least he's not a vampire...

I will go bug him some more!

What if I just reset the pwd on your old account so you have your history and rank?

Also each Beta sign up is new/different, so the main reason for adding a new account to the old/dead betas is if you want to go back and look up issues from them.

Which is fine, we can do that, but I'm thinking just resetting your old pwd would be best so you keep your demonic rank etc.

Was the old account the same email address, just different name? Because if so, when I reset, you should auto send you a link to original email.

If you want to use a newer email, I can update the old account with newer email.

T-A-G continues to be ridiculously slow in writing, whining about needing this "day job" to eat and put shelter over his head, oh, and get this "sleep"

I have had numerous petitions to slip him a cookie and have Gastrope' or Vaselle summon him to Astlan so he wouldn't need to eat and could write 20 hours per day.

However, as I've pointed out, in the Abyss, we only have AOL dialup (It is a place of torture after all). So that makes uploading the books and all the various interactions with the artist/editor etc very difficult and slow. Plus he uses something called Google and Wikipedia a lot, and those can be very slow down here.

Checking in on your old account.
