Update on the next chapters and my god damn health... and a poll...

Hey folks. So, a really quick update on my health. I've had four illnesses in a row since mid-January. It's been crazy. First, my face nearly exploded from the headache. Something with my sinuses. Then I had such bad stomach pains that I called 911 (the German emergency number)... In the ER, they didn't know what to do and prescribed Ibuprofen. The world-renowned German healthcare system. By the way, 40 Ibuprofen costs around €10 here. And then I had those headaches again with bloody nasal discharge, and this time it wasn't just my face that hurt, but also the back of my head and my neck.

I'm currently writing maybe half the time I can manage. About half an hour a day instead of a whole hour.

I've prepared a chapter for Ko-fi to make up for the lost time and I'll write another one this week about Jasmine's lunchtime routine.

After that, I'll continue here.

Also, for the ko-fi readers, I'm posting the pictures here in a short teaser chapter, and I'll also take the opportunity to post these bonus chapters if life throws me not just obstacles, but fucking tactical nukes.

Speaking of which: Which chapter should I post to make up for my shitty start to the new year?

Feel free to read the teaser chapters and then decide. Jasmine's midday routine isn't written yet, but it's coming next this week.

Otherwise, we have a new, previously only-appearing character in My Big, Bad, Strong World.

And Jasmine's early morning routine is my first and shortest bonus chapter, while in The Girl I Was we learn something about Tammy's future. Anyway, a little teaser. ;)

Inspo for Jasmine's lunchtime routine:

Regarding the bonus chapters, I can add that they are written in such a way that they (almost always) fit seamlessly into the story. However, when I write them, I orient myself around the perks we've unlocked in the story at that point. So, as soon as I unlock the invisibility perk (or another perk if the reader decides via poll), I continue to use it in the bonus chapters as well. This gives you a rough idea of ​​when the chapters take place in the story. They should be seen more as a bonus than an important part of the main story. However, I also prepare small details here that I only touch upon in the main story. I mention upcoming changes first, giving paying readers a slight head start and allowing them to contribute their input more effectively.

I hope your start to 2026 was better than mine, but all in all, I can't complain. It feels good to browse through nude pictures of Jasmine again and imagine that a chick like her gets wet at the thought of doing housework for Finn. Take care, folks. :)
