Happy Wednesday everyone! For those of you for whom the traditional week means anything, you're halfway there!
Today I've got the third and final part of Hekate's Proust Questionnaire. Next month, we'll be handing it over to someone else. I'...

A little pile of good news this week.
Firstly, it was a good week for progress: the chapter now sits at 14.5k, meaning I've written 5,000 words this week. This is great progress for me, heh, and I'd really like to...

Y'allllll. It's Hermes.
This amazing work was done by Charina Paras (links to Instagram). She comes highly recommended if you're looking to get something comm...

The bonus content this week is dealer's choice, and I decided to do a little piece on Alekto and Pyri, from shortly after Pyri took up their post in the Underworld. This is internal to Alekto's head, so we get a fair bit of her musi...
2021-05-05 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone, and happy May!
Alas, summer is beginning to encroach here in the southern portion of the U.S.; I must admit it's my least favorite season. I don't handle heat well, admittedly.
Anyway, as you're likely aware, the ...

Here's the BIP for April. Most of the work I did this month was code skeleton, which you can probably breeze through pretty quickly, but there's also some branches getting filled in if you initially choose to accept Charon's invitat...
2021-04-30 16:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostHi all!
A fairly general bonus content poll this time around—just to figure out what kind of thing you would be most interested in reading.
2021-04-30 15:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostThe Ecology of the Nymph
For FoA purposes (and in general) the term 'nymph' is a type noun of wide applicability. It marks something closer to a genus than a species, with a wide variety of types and subtypes populating that...
2021-04-28 16:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHello everyone!
Pretty good progress this week—the chapter is now a total of 7k words long, a mix of outline and filled in stuff. I'm working my way through the Charon scene now, but the conversation is pretty branchy so it's taking some t...
2021-04-26 16:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
Those of you who voted were interested in learning more about the Moirae, so the three of them are the subject of this month's fact sheet! I hope you enjoy!
Cheers,

Hi all!
Progress to report this week!
Wordcount wise, chapter 3 has 3300 words of code skeleton now, which is definitely over halfway through. I think I may stop once the scene I'm outlining now is done, so I can start on the chapter p...
2021-04-19 16:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
Hope you're all doing well. :) Today I've got part 2 of Hekate's Proust Questionnaire. Next month will wrap her up, and from there we'll jump to somebody else.
Cheers and stay safe out there!
2021-04-14 16:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
As I think I mentioned somewhere, I didn't get much done on FoA this week by design. I'm trying to get through the last scene of a Diaspora chapter—the good news is it's coming along and we should be back to our regularly-schedule...
2021-04-12 16:00:07 +0000 UTC View PostSo there's been a bit of an influx of people here over the last couple days. I'd just like to say welcome to the Patreon, and thank you so much for your kindness. I hope you enjoy the content on offer here, and I'd be happy to hear from you if you...

The first bonus content of the month continues the 'character sheets for important secondary characters' trend, this time with Demeter. Her appearance section is short, because her eye color and skin tone depend on the PC, though so...

At long last, Fields of Asphodel's demo has a (public) update! New stuff this time:
What even is time, honestly? I feel like I did one of these yesterday, but also that it's been a year.
Hey anyway, everyone. There's not a lot to report this week; as you all likely know by now, Chapter Two will be going out to the pub...
2021-04-05 16:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey everybody!
As promised, the BIP this month includes the complete second chapter! I would Love some feedback before it goes public, but no pressure for that if you just want to play it either. :)
I think it'll be generally going out...
2021-03-31 16:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
This month's variable bonus content will be another fact sheet, so vote for whose you want below. Cheers, and here's hoping for a great April.

It's done! Chapter Two is done!
Well, sorta. I still have a few more things to do, like proofreading and what not, but the actual forward-writing part of it is done! The outline is filled out, there is...
2021-03-29 16:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHello, hello!
As I work up to the conclusion of the chapter, I'm starting to solidify some of the backstory stuff that may become relevant in later iterations of FoA, heh. Here is one such bit (though for you guys it's still vague and myster...
2021-03-24 16:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey y'all!
Three thousand words in the books this week, and I am so close to the end of chapter two! In fact, I am pretty sure the complete chapter will be the BIP this month, and I'll be able to release it to everyone about a week or so aft...
2021-03-22 16:00:04 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
As voted on (and then subsequently tiebroken), this week's extra is a fact sheet about Makaria's tutor Empusa! Some of you have already met her, if briefly, but she'll be popping in here and there as things move along. 2021-03-17 16:01:02 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey again everyone!
'Tis the Ides of March, which somehow I always enjoy heh. Anyway, today's update is pretty straightforward, I think. I wrote another 2,000 words this week, bring the chapter to 55k in total. In terms of story, this has br...
2021-03-15 16:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
I've decided we're lacking a bit in content for the ladies of FoA, so the next character to get the Proust treatment is Hekate! She'll carry us through May, and then maybe I'll poll for who to do after that.
Part on...
2021-03-10 17:01:02 +0000 UTC View PostHey all!
I've been writing fairly speedily this week—4.5k new words since the BIP, bringing the chapter total up to 52k! The end is uh... nearly in sight. I am almost finished with the last of the after-dinner options, and I think the non-...
2021-03-08 17:00:06 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone,
As mentioned, this month kicks off some CSs for important secondary characters. First up, we have Zeus, who surely no one will be surprised to learn is kinda an antagonist in the story, though I think whether he ends up b...
2021-03-03 17:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostHi everyone!
Not a whole lot to report today, given that the BIP went out yesterday, heh. That said, to sum up February for you: I made about 10k worth of progress on the chapter, and also snipped about 2.5k worth of outline and moved that a...
2021-03-01 17:01:03 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone!
Another month, another ~10k words for the BIP.
New this time: Hekate and Charon's after-dinner scenes with drunk!PC, the beginning of Hermes's after-dinner scene with sober!PC, and the first entries in a requested charact...
2021-02-28 17:00:31 +0000 UTC View PostI think this month's variable bonus content is going to be some kind of random factoids sheet on a secondary character I haven't explored much yet. So please vote for someone you'd like to know a little more about!
