I'm tired, so this is just a quick drive by posting to let you know the Many Worlds Patreon is back up and running. I'll be charging from September, but August will still be paused, and you're welcome to check out what I'm doing. Over the new few weeks I will be getting the world building mirrored there too.

World building posts are scheduled twice a week until the end of the month at Ko-fi. I have memberships set up there, as I start to rebuild the Many Worlds once more, after the pandemic took so much of my energy.

Current Mood: optimistic

(This is what happens when I'm unhappy with the ending of a game I'm watching. Inspiration for this is from 'The Forest', so this is likely to end up being darker than what I normally write, but I couldn't get this out of my head - so here's the beginning of the story.)

To make a long story short, the longer story can be seen on my personal account, Fiverr has brought in a system that might well have destroyed everything I've worked so hard for. With everything else that's happened this year it's not something we're able to cope with financially as well as we might have been able to, so I'm here to ask for your help. I have enough to pay our rent once more. I had orders I was working on that would have been our next rental payment, but in 14 days I might lose my account entirely due to this issue.

If you can help I have ko-fi and I have Patreon. Please boost the signal, if you can.

We finally meet Emmett and Diggory, as they enter the Donor House for the first time.

There's also a couple of new early access stories up at Patreon. They will be going up on the website in the future, but I'm not entirely sure when, as I have a lot to post. My first goal is $100 a month, which will help to take some of the weight off my shoulders when it comes to being the main earner currently.

Current Mood: accomplished

Posting has started once more, with older stories going back up. If you've never had a chance to have a look at what I write checking it out now would be much appreciated, especially as I'm looking to see how easy it is to read stories there. Once I have a bit more time I'm hoping to get some other options up, although I need to work out what I should do to make it work best, as I write in parts, so I'm not certain if I should make an ebook download available for all parts or if I should wait until all the parts are done - at least for that arc of it. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

I mentioned before that my long term boyfriend is dealing with some mental health issues. Yesterday, after an appointment with the local mental health team, he was referred on to the Early Intervention Team, who specialise helping those with psychosis issues. Once more we're waiting on another appointment, and things are complicated in so many ways right now. Not having two incomes is complicating everything, but it's very unlikely he's going to be able to get back to work when we originally said he would start looking, and what he can do, I think, is going to be limited by his mental health.

The plan is still to get back to the website, back to writing for me, but it's something I have to work around a number of other things, and, in all honesty, I'm so tired right now that my creativity is at an all time low. What I am going to do, as I have been for so long, is keep putting one foot in front of the other, and holding on to my belief that things are going to get better.

The website is looking a little different now, which is always a nice thing for me to do. I like making changes every so often, and this, I think, is one of my current favourites. I'm still working on the details, but I'm pleased with things as they are. I'm going to be working on updating menus, and making sure it's easy to navigate, because there are going to be a lot of stories going up in the next few weeks. What I want to be doing is getting up the majority of what I already had posted, while also working on some continuations, completing some old stories, and just making it similar to how it was before. It's not going to be the same as it was, but that was the whole reason I started again. I needed a fresh start, and this is working out well.

One of the main things I want to get done, because I've been working on it for years, is the Case of the Counterfeit Enchantments, and all the bonus stories I had planned out. Losing my interest in writing meant it didn't get finished, so I really do want to get it done. I'm also working out some ideas as to what it is I want to be doing with the crowdfunding aspect, and comments, and the fact I did lose some of my love because I felt like no one was reading. That was my own issue, so something I need to be working through. I don't write for other people. I write for me. The website exists for me. Yes, I do like it when other people read what I write, but that's not something that's necessary. However, if you were one of my readers, it would be great to see you back. Comments are always appreciated, even if they are to tell me about typos.

Current Mood: hopeful

I'm working on a new Guide for the Many Worlds, because the old one is pretty outdated now, especially with the new worlds that have been created. Doing that means I've found I've lost some of my world building, with the main loss being my magic list for the Thirteen Families. It's an annoyance, and I'm pretty sure there is a copy somewhere, but it's something to look for another day. I just wanted to note it here, so I don't forget. I know what I'm like sometimes.

Far longer than I ever thought it could be, to be honest, but life has been very complicated. In recent months I've been spending a lot of time looking after my partner, due to his mental health issues. I'm working toward getting a better balance of everything, and have been getting back to working on my own writing, however I'm coming up to the point where I need to renew my web hosting. Unfortunately, due to the aforementioned mental health issues the majority of my income is going toward keeping a roof over our heads, with a smaller amount going toward me being able to keep my own mental health from taking a horrible tumble into being an added problem.

So, if you'd like to see some more of my work, I'd really appreciate help with keeping the website up and running. ko-fi.com/kawebb

“Thian is a world with magic.” Bastien stood, making his way over to the window. “It’s the reason we’re here.” He thought back to his own arrival, and how complicated it had been. Lottie seemed to be taking it all much better, but then there was no way for him to know what she was truly thinking or feeling. “Someone who’s given the chance to call Thian home is here because the world wanted to give them another chance to live out the life they should have had.” Running his tongue over his lips he turned to look at her. “You do know how you’re here, don’t you?”

Travelling from one world to another is something I have never much enjoyed. People judge me based on what they see, and, of course, what they see is only a tiny part of who I am. My clothes might not be the newest fashions, but they keep me safe from the things I know I’ll be dealing with when I finally get to Deotis. I’d rather be protected than look good. Of course that tells them I’m a treasure hunter, which means, obviously, I have no morals. I am willing to do whatever I have to in order to get whatever it was I was hired to get. Yet, to me, that defines a thief, and I’m not a thief. I would say I’ve never stolen anything from anyone, but that would be a lie. I have to admit I have stolen, from the bodies of people who would have killed me had I not killed them first, and I don’t have any regrets about that choice. Sometimes it’s been the only way I was able to survive.

Equinox couldn’t stop herself from staring out of the window. She knew it wasn’t a good idea, it never was, but she hadn’t yet found the strength to stop herself from doing it. At the same time as usual a group of three girls walked past her house, and she watched them wistfully. They were all normal teenagers while she was one of the Seen. No one outside the family and the Seen Council even knew she existed. It hurt to watch them because they got a chance to live their own lives while everything she did, especially the books she read, had to be vetted by her Watcher. Some days she imagined what it would be like to be one of them. A normal girl with a normal life. When she had the window open it was possible to hear them complain about how boring their lives were, and she always felt the same disappointment. They couldn’t see what they had. They didn’t know how lucky they really were. Their mundane life was the thing she wanted more than anything else, but they wanted something more, something better, when their lives were so much better than hers.

There were two things Claire noticed as she made her way around the hotel – it was empty of guests, and it was far bigger on the inside than it was on the outside. Knowing the fae the latter was to be expected, but the former was unsettling. Earning a living from something like a hotel meant having guests, although it was possible Bran’s death… the story he’d told her wasn’t easy to believe, and yet it was one she’d heard so many times. People who’d never thought for a moment they might have fae blood were finding that, actually, something had happened in the past that had led to that being a possibility. Sighing, she raked a hand through her hair. Her blood meant she was the one to inherit the hotel. Her blood meant she was probably going to be stuck with the place until she died.

The call had drawn her to what appeared to be a school. After everything she’d been through Astrid knew better than to think what she was seeing was what she was actually going to be dealing with. She wouldn’t have been called if there wasn’t something unusual going on. Biting hard on her lip, her heart pounding in that way it always did when she found herself standing close to a lot of magic, she gave herself a moment to think things through. Just running in, as much as she wanted to, wasn’t going to do her any good, so she took a few steps backwards, in the hope it would help. It didn’t. Whatever was in that school was strong, and strong often meant dangerous. Raking a hand through her hair she thought about the stories she’d heard while she was in town.

I am Hestia. Well, most of the time I am anyway, but that isn’t important right now. Our names never are, when we first make the decision to connect with someone, as we want to give them a chance to get to know us first, before they start learning something about who we aren’t. That is the major problem with the myths that surround us – they are more about who someone wanted us to be and less about the people we actually are, which is part of the reason we’ve chosen to be a part of this, because it would have been easy enough for us to walk away. For a while I was going to, thinking that it wasn’t possible for someone to really write down what I wanted them to, but so far this does seem to be working. It’s a nice surprise and I can feel how uncomfortable she is writing this.

With Riordan gone Tegan looked at her parents. They looked back at her, and it was easy to see the worry in their eyes. She hadn’t been careful enough. If she had been she never would have been found, but there was nothing she could do to change what had already happened. It was done. All she could do was accept it, while trying to work out what her next step was going to be, because the one thing she knew for certain was that the fae were not going to be happy about the existence of those who could walk the worlds. Everyone knew they hated not being in control. Anyone who knew anything about the Web of worlds was certain they were never going to be in control. They’d used magics they didn’t truly understand, and those magics were already changing on them.

Ace had visited the house every night for six months. He’d started on the night of Rebecca’s 18th birthday, and every time he walked in the door he gave her parents a look. She knew the look meant that they were meant to have told her something, but she was glad they hadn’t. There was something about him, probably the whole vampire thing, that terrified her, so the last thing she wanted to hear was that they’d sold her to him. It was something she’d heard stories about, even though she didn’t quite believe they were true, and she really didn’t want the proof to change her life.

Crying again wasn’t going to change anything. Anastasia pushed aside the emotions, doing her best not to think about how things might be for her sister, and instead focused on Lauren. Of course she was surprised to find Woody was gone. The last time she visited he was still pretending he was normal, still making it seem like he was the man he had always been, still doing his best not to push her into doing something it was obvious she didn’t want to do, even though that pretence had quickly faded once she was gone. After that his emotions had been all over the place. He didn’t believe that she didn’t want to join with them. Like so many things he’d been able to blame the World Government for her choice, wanting to believe she was trapped by them. Forcing her to stay would be nothing more than rescuing her.

There was only one person who would knock on my door at 3am. For a moment I lay in bed, hoping he’d go away, but then he knocked again. “Lily.” His voice was little more than a whisper, but I could hear him like he was right beside me. “Come on, little sister. I need you.”
