Thank you so much for all the responses to this 👉🏻 poll - it's really great to see how many of you are interested in regular updates!
That said… there were also quite a few people who picked the “just tell me when it drops” option (and not just, like, two or three), and - call it my own lingering sense of posting guilt (I honestly don’t know why I have it, but it’s real 🙈😅) - I already sometimes feel like I’m spamming you all a bit here.
So starting now, I’ll be posting a small dev update once a week or every other week over on 👉🏻 Patreon - and it’ll be completely free to read, no matter whether you’re subscribed or not. (Paid tiers are still paused.)
Here’s my thinking behind it:
I’d like to create a gentle divide between platforms.
Tumblr will stay the space for Ask responses and general update announcements - especially for those of you who follow lots of IFs and mainly want to be notified when something new drops.
Patreon, on the other hand, will become the space for anyone who’s a little more curious about how EoO is progressing behind the scenes. 😊 (Again: totally free to read. No paywall. No catch.)
I really like the idea of giving you a clearer sense of where I’m at - even during weeks when I might not be answering as many Asks.
Some weeks might come with bigger writing milestones, others might just be me saying “still here, still working on everything - life’s just been busy.”
But either way, you’ll know the project’s alive and moving forward, even if (sometimes) slowly.
So if you're someone who enjoys those small glimpses into the process, you’re warmly invited to follow along over there.
If not - that’s completely fine too! You’ll still hear when big things drop, right here.
I hope that rounds everything out nicely - and I’m really excited for what’s coming next.
