Hey friends! Just an update over on Patreon on my absence the last couple weeks.

TLDR: Life kicked me in the gut a few times during August and September so the show was impacted. Oh, there is also a spoiler for next episode around a new character coming to the show!

The next **Tales from the Dead West** is live! This time @ash-alder.bsky.social brings us **Nearer Hell than Purgatory**, a chilling tale about surviving at _all_ costs. @sophiachung.info and @dennisortman.bsky.social bring this story to life and do an amazing job doing so.

Links to the ep below.

So you wrote ~2 more paragraphs than you started the day with? Sounds like a creative win to me, even if you have to spend more time editing them into gold.

Hey all apologies for not updating sooner but the next Episode will drop on Monday the 12th. Little life events and work stuff have piled up so that I only really get a fraction of the time needed to pick away at the show. BUT I have the weekend and plan to use most of it for the show!
