Hope you had a happy Yule!
I was sitting home alone, baking brownies and eating them, Boggy was away. He'd located a nephew of his Ex-Master and was busy roasting the guy's chestnuts over an open fire.

So are we looking at a 2024 release for book 4? Or do we pin all our hopes and dreams on 2025?

Silly question, after the depressing reality of a Trump presidency awaited us at the end of the last book (came out 1.1.2017) we are going to get the new book looking forward to a new book in the bright future without a new Trump presidency (1.1.2025)... (the news tell me a uncountable army of swifties is going to make sure of that?!? At least FOX NEWS seems to believe so ^^) Edited by user Saturday, February 3, 2024 2:36:26 AM(UTC)

Pretty sure she is some deity's avatar. She's likely on a mission to return him to the Courts of Chaos. I am also pretty sure the Demon Princes are working hard to make sure he doesn't come back, you wonder where he get's the money for his legal bills?

The demiurge is even craftier than we gave him credit for?

Hmm, could be, but I am not convinced he's not trying to keep the guy on Earth. After all, he's one of the few gods that sends natural disasters at his own worshippers. And notice how stingy he is with miracles and mana for clerics now that he's got over 50% of the planet's worshippers across his various brands? Back as recently as 1000 years ago he was still doing a decent job of handing out healings, water-wine conversions, bleeding statues, miracles etc, and 2000 years ago he was almost generous--almost. These day there are very few verifiable miracles being handed out. That's just cheap, and greedy, if you ask me. Of course, to be fair, there is an upside, I don't think he evicts more than a single demon from a human every couple decades, so it's been great for us. Tizzy

Trump will get in the office, of course he will. Demons win after all, all the time. Once Trump is in he will pass a law that Book 4 gets published

I would support that law!
I have tried, poked, prodded, tortured, harangued and the lout is still dragging his keyboard....

So what is the estimated time frame for our next fix of doom???. Come on Tizzy lock up our most revered author in his den and set up a electric shock system that will zap every minute unless he is typing. It is a very good system works wonders for energy recovery and not as addictive as coffee.

The Problem with the shocks is that given prolonged exposure to Tizzy might mean that TAG might just enjoy it. Same issue with branding irons, bamboo slivers, salt baths and whipping. As for psychological damage, well... Tizzy...

Hmm, It's odd how many of my friends are always busy with one of those spa treatments every time I mention dropping by or go out for a bite of wizard. Tizzy

I am with Lodrik, we fans have not waivered in our desire for book four. While I enjoy rereading the series and just finished it today to get details for the Wikia. More material is required for the Wikia

The first chapter takes place very shortly after the end of AOD when the Undead Army zap out to the Abyss and there is a lot of rapid scene switching because a lot is going on.
So, I suspect I may very well do this, but I want to get a better handle on how much longer it's going to take before I tease people with it. Honestly, I think everyone here would be fine with a tease of a chapter, even if it ends up being mostly re-written. For me personally, the end of book 3 is a tease for the remainder of your story with so many loose threads needing answers. It would be fun to speculate where you are heading from a chapter 1 excerpt, or hell, a chapter excerpt from any point in your story.

A teaser chapter would be awesome and I am all for it. Please oh mighty author graces us with this blessing. Huh what is the demon version of blessing someone? Cursing, Dooming.
Well we all want to be Doomed!

What i would like to know is, is it de facto purely a time issue or the need to earn money with his day job that keeps TAG from furthering the story?
If it is a money issue i would support a patreon or similar with a few bucks a month to get and keep things going. No extra chapters needed or anything. Just a way to ease money issues. If a few other people chip in it might help TAG to have time for the important stuff - chugging away at the keyboard and finally get Book IV going. :)
Would hate for this story to end prematurely.
Cheers Baal

I agree completely.
I would hate for this to end as well, If Patreon will solve the issue and get us book 4, I am all for it.
What do you say TAG?
Please give me more content, my fanfic will eventually run out of the main timeline and I will have to start making stuff up.
Sincerely William.

Several of us have suggested Patreon several times now, and it has been shot down every time. I think one of the issues is what to offer to those of us who would support aside from early chapters. Maybe if someone can come up with suggested tier levels and rewards, TAG may finally give in. Or we could accept his answer and wait like normal people.

Tizzy/TAG,
You still have many fans waiting for the next book. You created one of the best series in the Fantasy/Sci-Fi genre which would be on the all-time top seller lists if you were backed by a publishing company willing to market your books. Since Patreon doesn't appeal to you, how about picking one of the top publishers like Macmillan and asking your fans to encourage them to review your books? With the right backing your existing books could provide you with plenty of income to focus on book 4 and beyond.

Again, love the series. Been waiting for it for a long time now. But I'm starting to believe TAG and GRRM are the same person.
