As 2025 comes to a close.
While going through my notes preparing for what I wanted to do for 2026, I realized that I hadn't written one of these in awhile. Life has been busy and with waves of sickness across the planet, my artists have been caught up in it themselves. Though there isn't a lot of content coming out at the moment, this does not mean that the Beloved Universe is done. On the contrary, I have more things coming up!
So, what are the goals for the coming year?
Beloved Maid Novellas
After releasing Ascendent Rising I realized I wanted to do a few more novellas. So at present, there are two that I plan to release in 2026. One takes place back in the Issues 1 through 4 range while the second takes place back on Felicity III like Alone in the Wilds did.
In regards to the webcomic, the next script is finished and the artist was half way through when he had a life event that had him go on Hiatus. We're waiting till life settles down before he picks up the pen and starts the next issue!
Beloved Chains
Only two pages left as of this blog post for the fourth installment, the goal is to get it done before the year is over so that we can start issue 5 fresh of 2026. There will be, unfortunately, another delay between 4 and 5 as my artist is finishing up an unrelated project and I want to get a stack of pages so that there is more consistent release unlike what we were dealing with right now.
Short Stories
I will continue to release short stories on the Blue Blossom Adventures blog with a goal being once a month. I'm actually to a point that I believe I have enough to compile them into an anthology.
I actually have two stories that I have not released that are going to be special stories only included in the anthology book. That way those who want to buy it get something special out of it instead of just a collection of what has already been released.
Ending
I think that's it for now. A lot of stuff is still in the air and I haven't laid out all I want to do in 2026. I really don't know if there is going to be more, the same, or less content as I'm making things up as I go at the moment.
As always, thank you so much for your continued support of the universe. I love it so much and just knowing there are others that enjoy it to really make me happy. Maevin and the gang live thanks to your kindness and enjoyment of the story.
See you in 2026!
