FIRST! Please vote on the poll! Which characters do you think are the most interesting and the most fun to read about apart from Teach, Lola and Re-Haan?

SECOND! I will now put the Dao of Magic on a temporary hiatus. I've been writing this story pretty much weekly - if not daily - for 16 months now and I need a break.

Worry not, as the ideas have been flowing and new plot points keep appearing in my mind, but I want to focus on something other than the ridiculous, unrealistic and fantastical tale it has become.

I will do this for a while by concentrating my efforts on the ridiculous, unrealistic and fantastical tale of a summoned magical skeleton that got teleported into a sci-fi universe, namely Skeleton in Space.

Dao of Magic will return, but in a slightly different format. Teach will show up as he puts out fires around the globe, but the main focus will be on different characters as they go through the change from mana to qi and what that means for their daily lives. A Teach based story will follow that, I think. Not sure yet.

This second 'season' of DoM will be uploaded to RoyalRoad eventually, so just keep refreshing that 'Bookmarks' page and all will be well.

THIRD! In the meantime, a bit of rather awesome news! I've been invited by the lovely people of Volarenovels to join their fluffy community. I said yes! I will shortly be publishing a slightly edited version of DoM on Volare and in ebook form both on Volare and Amazon. I will keep you all posted and will not forget my roots as a humble webnovelist when my works are topping the best-selling fantasy book lists (I can dream, right?...)

In short, thanks for all the support! Go read Skeleton in Space and join me on Patreon or Discord for exclusive previews and early chapters! More DoM will come in a while.

Love you all,
