Double post today: chapter 9 and chapter 10 of The Tinker's Daughter. The one-page version is updated, and there are archives of ebooks for patrons.

Tell me one thing you dislike about this update. Giving me constructive criticism so that I improve as a writer is the only way you're going to get better content in the future. (Compliments also welcome, obviously.)
