Ah, the thing you all want to know. Well, after the Big Two questions.

How many chapters will I write in Book 4?

The answer is… [drum roll please]

I’m not entirely sure. I’m currently writing Ch35, and I have events broadly outlined to Ch40, but Patreon has shifted my thinking a bit. I’m no longer in a rush to finish Book 4 as quickly as possible.

Why? Well, that’s a longer story.

The tl;dr is that I don’t have to wrap up Book 4 in order to start earning money for all my time and effort. I can finish the book the way it should be, with the occasional distraction along the way.

Right now I think it’ll be at least 45 chapters, although I can’t really be sure until I get further along. I have milestones and events that the story will eventually cover, but how we get there isn’t always clear. (That’s how I write, at least.)

I guess you’ll just have to read along and find out.
