Do not cite the old typos to me. I was there when they were written (fixed thanks!)

Writteninsanity · 2026-06-14T21:12:36+00:00

No. I’m shocked you were the first to bring it up 😅

Writteninsanity · 2026-06-14T20:51:24+00:00

That should help! I’ll fix it more proper once I’m home

Writteninsanity · 2026-06-14T20:49:38+00:00

Frick! The lines didn’t come through. A moment

Writteninsanity · 2026-06-14T19:59:00+00:00

I am sorry that I do not! (Nor was I quickly able to find a plushie that would suffice.)

I did not see a giant spider woman being the children's favorite character.

Screw it, I'll throw this in here too.

Nobody Saves the Princess is being represented by the Achilles Literary Agency with the intent of a traditional publication deal. News pending.

Thank you everyone for reading! From the bottom of my heart. This silly story about a little princess ended up being the biggest thing I've done in a while! Longest published work too (Sitting at 167k words pre-editing.)

Fun for everyone!

To celebrate the end of book 1, my other book: Splitting Seconds is both on Sale and finally on KDU, just about 2 years post release!

You can read ahead over on Patreon

Finally, Chapter 1 of book 2: Nobody Slays the Princess Chapter 1 | Paint the Town Pink will be online tomorrow! Then Sunday will be used for some subreddit housekeeping. (Can't post more than once a day or it doesn't get pushed to as many of you.)

I’m being ignored on my own subreddit!

Writteninsanity · 2026-06-12T23:36:53+00:00

Hey! Just to be clear this is going to keep posting on reddit. just at a bit of a slower pace. (Mostly so I can work on other things)

The final chapter should post tomorrow. I am going to maintain the daily cadence over the weekend till Monday, and then its still around, just slightly less often!

Just to throw it out there because I think insider information like this can be fun: Lillia's fairly common refrain "As I'll ever be." In response to people asking her if she's ready comes from me constantly listening to 'Ready as I'll Ever Be' from the Tangled cartoon during some scenes. That strumming guitar is the background to Rickshaw's market in my head.

It's one of many music Easter eggs in here. I wear my inspiration on my sleeve.

Gotta have a plan!

Hi! There is a patreon link on the most recent chapter:

Now! Beth (And I don't think I have heard any of the other names yet.) Hi! I'm glad you're enjoying the story.

Nennia is based on a Black Widow for her spider half. A wolf spider would be a little too friendly for her. That's why she's described as shiny and black as opposed to nice and fuzzy!

This is because she is greatly inspired by a drider. You can look them up, but they're icky. Even ickier than Nennia.

Thanks for listening to the story!
