Special thanks and Patreon Details

Hey folks,

It goes without saying this isn't a proper chapter, just thanking people and patreon details, as the title suggests.

First off, thank you!
Thanks for hanging in there while I get the motor running on this branch. At the risk of sounding cliche, it means so much to me how much support I've been getting from you all, especially the fellas on the discord server for all the wit and general shenanigans. I'd be remiss to not mention by name, my co-authors and friends - Juvia, Slinger, Cala, and Fun - for really helping to get this branch on its feet. If you haven't read their branches, yet, I encourage you to give them a go. They're all bring their own unique spin on the tale of our friend, John, and truly are worth the read. I've linked the first chapter in each branch below if you want to check them out! Lastly, I'd like to thank a guy whose name has cropped up from time to time, but truly needs to have his name immortalised in brick for the amount of behind the scenes work he does for the authors. DraMr is instrumental to reader experience. I'll be the first to admit that my first drafts are pretty bad, but thanks to Dra's efforts I'm able refine a multitude of mistakes down to the occasional one or two. So thank you Dra!

Slinger's branch: https://chyoa.com/chapter/Rumination-and-Observation-%5BThe-Gunslinger%5D.406633
Cala's branch: https://chyoa.com/chapter/An-interruption--%5BCalamitous-Intent%5D.374572
Juvia's Branch: https://chyoa.com/chapter/Creatively-%5BJuvia_lockser%5D.414392
Funatic's Branch: I mean, you would have read the start have Fun's branch to get to mine anyway. But if you happened to have detoured into mine without reading the rest of Fun's, its worth finishing... or catching up...

Second,
I've opened a patreon! I understand making a financial commitment, especially to an anonymous author who writes amateur erotic fiction, is a big deal, which is why it's completely optional to make a contribution. Anything you do contribute is greatly appreciated, and I want to stress all proceeds go towards commissioning official art for the characters in this branch, rather than supporting me financially. The first commission will be of the branch main girl, Red. The current goal is to reach $125 monthly so that I can commission art on a bimonthly basis and keep fuelling the waifu train! Oh, and did I mention there were rewards?

Thank you all for taking the time to read this post, and I hope you have and will continue to enjoy reading my branch!
