And this is where we leave Constance, for now.

Friends. It took me roughly three years to finish this episode. During that time, I went through some of the best and hardest times in my life (so far, touch wood, nervous laughter, etc.).

My hope is that it’ll be a MUCH less bumpy road as I continue forward. Over the course of this chapter, I streamlined my process by a whole lot, so I am cautiously optimistic that between that and my life being in a more stable(?) place, I’ll be able to work much faster.

Also, the next episode is stuff I’ve been waiting to get to for years, which will definitely light a fire under my ass. Get ready…. for Sinh backstory.

My humble request to you, if you’ve come all this way with me since 2017, is to go back and read this episode from the top. I would love for it to be experienced in one go, instead of staggered over three years.

What’s next? Well, I’m going to take a month or so to get all my ducks in a row for the Episode Six launch. I applied for a MICE mini grant, which I will use to do a print run of The Devil’s Music if I get it–but I WILL get it done, by hook or by crook.

My deepest thanks to everyone who’s been reading all this time, or who picked it up somewhere along the way, or who just started today.

Always, always, thank you for reading. <3
