This Week in BATL: Project updates, new bonus, and an invitation to tea

Last week got a little away from me, which is why I didn’t post a summary last Friday. But that made me realize I probably don’t need to post one every Friday—after all, each individual reward already has a notification going out to the appropriate group.

So I’m going to cut down on my workload and start posting these every other week from now on. It’ll either be a gentle reminder to go check out your reward, or it’ll be a gentle reminder that there are things going on here you might want access to. :-)

Okay, here’s the round-up of rewards for this week—er, fortnight:


Work in Progress

Chapters 9 & 10 for Every Bell that Rings are now live. Some unexpected events happen on the sleigh ride…

WIP chapters are available to everyone from Chapters 1 to 3, and Loyalists and above past that.


Gallery: A Vacay to Sirenia… with Maps!

Explore Sirenia with me, including inspiration photos, two versions of the downloadable map, and some sketches of the Opal Palace.

Available to all paid tiers.


Audiobook in Progress: Finding Heaven Chapter 2 posted

Sarah can’t figure Steve out. But he’s sure got an interesting life.

Early access audiobook chapters available to Literati and above.


Coming Soon

The monthly online Tea with Talena meetup is scheduled for next Thursday night at 7 p.m. MT. If you want to join, you need to register with EventBrite (which I’m trying out to simplify my process). Check out the details in the Luminary reward room. (You’ll be invited to upgrade if you don’t already have access.)

I’d love to see you there!


I can hardly believe that it’s almost December. Did you know 2023 is almost over? I’m looking forward to my oldest son coming home for the month, and to some much-needed down time over the holidays.

Thank you so much for being here, epic reader. I’m so honoured to be producing these stories and other content for you to enjoy. Thank you for your support. It means so much.
