Once upon a time in the land of Redmond, there were three authors who went on the most amazing adventure - to share their bedtime stories with the world. 

 Welcome:

• I'm Lynnea 
• I'm Luca
• And I'm Jeremy

Introductions:

• Thank you all for your continued support and contributions as we develop The Land of Atheria. Without your support we could not have made it this far. 
• If you're new check out our website, podcast and social media for more information and how you can support. It's your support that allows us to continue to develop the Land of Atheria. 

Update on Episodes:

• We've been working on and finished episodes 19 - 25! Woo Hoo! We're also really excited about where the story is going. If you want to hear some spoilers, hang in there and we'll share some at the end of this cast.
• Donor incorporation: 
  • Julie Miller's character (Princess Ellery) shows up for the first time in episode 12 
  • Julie Wade (not to be confused with our other donor) character (Jewel the mermaid) will show for the first time in episode 19 
  • Joy Brown's character (Jo the botanist) will show up for the first time in episode 12 and then the other cameo (Valley the winged dog) will show up in episode 13 

Update on Illustrations:

• We've got three illustrations from the first ten episodes we're working on (shout out to Mario, our illustrator) 
  • The princesses riding Scorch the dragon (from episode 8) 
  • An underwater scene with princess Blu from episode 9 
  • A scene from Cedar Landing 
• Nea's working on a few more coloring pages for episodes 20+
• Actually a week or so old, but we designed a map of Atheria on Inkarnate they have a really easy and free editor to get your started. It's very basic but it gets the job done, if you're like me and just need a quick way to organize your world. 

 Update on Marketing:

• Guest podcasted on "The Oddest Ends" with Balin Deaver
• Signed up for Mailchimp. If you've been part of our Kickstarter group, note that we'll be sending an announcement soon that we're going to move over all our communications to Mailchimp and integrate with the website! Also, if you're a fan and need a way (beyond Facebook) to stay up to date, check out our Subscribe link on the website!
• Reading "How to Publish Your Book" by Jane Friedman on Libby. A "Great Courses" Masterclass. 

 Update on Equipment:

• No real update, still working on getting our mic worked out! LOL

Shout out of the Week:

• The evolution of the ogre with glasses. We meet him in the first ten episodes and in the next set of crystals we get to know him even more and find out that he has stumbled up on some very important pets. 
• The land of the sky. In the first ten episodes we got introduced to Atheria as well as Tortura the land of the sea. In the next ten set of stories we get introduced to Skyrabia, the land of the sky and how that plays into the shattering of the orb. 

Review of the Week:

Excellent!

Detailed and descriptive! The story telling is spot on! The content in the story is suspenseful, and the dialogue is great! Looking forward to more episodes!
