It was yesterday, in fact - book 1 of Only Villains Do That is now available on Amazon and Audible, the audio version narrated by Todd Haberkorn! Unfortunately Royal Road tends to block or mangle off-site links but you can find them there.

I know it's been a long time since this story has updated, but I want to assure everyone that it's not dead or abandoned. The explanation is probably the same as it is for whatever questions you might have about whatever I've been doing: I live with mental illness that makes my productivity unpredictable and sometimes blocks me out of certain things I'd like to do. For the time being, the dark and often brutal nature of OVDT has been too much for me to immerse myself back in it, but I have continued to try at intervals. This story is too important to me to let it go. I can't say when I'll be back to it, but I will.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

In the meantime, you can now get it in audio, ebook, or print! In fact, it's part of a pilot program with Podium that means it won't just be print-on-demand, but may be stocked on shelves in bookstores. If your local doesn't have a copy, they can probably order one.

Thank you for reading; I really hope you've liked the story. I hope it'll be just as good or even better when it returns.
