Chương 16: Front page of Rising Stars in Six Days! So have evidence of my dark history...

Last night before I went to bed, I saw we hit the front page Rising stars. That's rising stars in six days. I can't even... That's mind-blowing to me. That's just incredible. I want to thank you all so much for your continuing support, and I hope to have you as readers for a long time to come. Right now is the biggest growth period of the story, so anything you can do to spread the word and tell your friends is going to be a big help in making it a success. I really mean that.

The fact that we have come so far so fast is really down to you. Let me give you an excellent example. My Patreons already know this, but for those of you who are new (heh. new. on a week old story.) my original cover was some particularly sloppy AI slop. My current cover was put together by one of my wonderful patreons, who whishes to remain nameless. BUT I KNOW WHO SHE IS! And she is awesome. But why did she feel so moved that she volunteered to make me a new cover? This story originates from Royal Road.

Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there. She saw what I paid for. It turns out that I, unknowingly, offended some terrible cosmic power. My curse? An inability to make or buy good covers. Dear readers, wouldn't you be moved to pity if you saw... THIS?! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that is a picture I paid an actual artist to make. Admittedly, I didn't pay him much. And then a different Patreon hits me with this gem- I mean... Jesus. Yeah. That's a bit better. Really.

Thank you all so much for your support. It's what makes the stories possible. Warby
