Undend News: Ku, Book Removal, Side-story
Greetings Undenders,
If you''ve followed <em>Undend </em>to its conclusion, then you know that I ended up limiting it to one volumedue to itsck of poprity and its impact on my Patreon; it was my hope to take the novel to Kindle in the hope that it might find a new audience there, at least enough to justify writing more entries in that universe.
Well, the Amazonunch day is approaching fast. I signed an agreement with the publisher Podium to bring that story to KU and Audible. However, Kindle Unlimited demands exclusivity on the tform.
As a result, Undend''s volume I/first half - chapter 1 to 31 - will be <strong>removed somewhere between August 1 and 8</strong> (the exact date will depend on the publisher and when I receive pre-order links) from both RR and Patreon besides a few early ones; though like Kairos before it, patrons can download a free PDF version of the ebooks before that date. The second half will follow shortly afterwards.
As you''ve been following and supporting the story for so long, I''m giving you an advance notice on that front.
I know that some of you are against Kindle Unlimited, and I perfectly understand why; it feels frustrating to follow a story only to see it taken down. If I could legally put Undend on KU without removing existing chapters down from RR, I would.
But as a professional author I''ve got to put meat on the table; I can only write full-time if I don''t have to worry about paying the rent and currently, <em>Undend </em>does not. KU present a whole new audience that may or may not find <em>Undend </em>as entertaining as you did. If the novel does find sess on that tform, then I might get around to writing a sequel to Valdemar and Marianne''s journey.
On a more positive front, a patronmissioned me to write a short one-shot set in the <em>Undend </em>universe; namely Lord Bethor''s rise to power. I''ve done the outlining and I hope toplete this side-story by August. Not sure whether I''ll post it there in the main <em>Undend </em>story or as a separate story/short nove like I did with <em>The Perfect Run: Bad Runs</em>. If you have a preference don''t hesitate to say so in thements.
I wish you a good day, and write you soon.
Best regards,
Voidy.
