Operation: PYRE

The serial my friend Zach and I have been working on finally has a name! I mean, it’s a “probably” name (meaning we can still change it if we want), but as of now, it’s named. Woo hoo!

We also have a goal:

To have the website for it up, the Patreon and paypal set up (don’t worry, it’ll be free at first so you can see if you like it), and basically be ready to go for our second goal:

“It may seem to some inexplicable why, after massive failure, individuals they know keep rising up and keep trying. This to me has only one explanation: faith. We keep working, keep trying, keep getting up because we believe, we know, we have faith that one day it is all going to work out. Perhaps not the way we want or in the way that we have so meticulously planned, but one day in a way that blesses us in a surprising fashion, beyond our best plans, our work will pay off.”
― Nelson Christian Stokes
