We hope you've enjoyed listening to this chapter, as much as we enjoyed making it, but those of you who've been with us for a while, you know what a chapter finale means. It is time again to ask the once and future nerd. We'll be doing a YouTube live stream, Datentime TBA, where we answer your questions. |
| 0:22.7 | If you want to submit a question, you can post it on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr |
| 0:27.2 | with the hashtag Ask, T-O-A-F-N, or DM us on Patreon if you're a patron. Just make sure you get those |

| 1:17.2 | a bit of a break between Chapter 9 and Chapter 10. We're still figuring out the schedule. If it looks |
| 1:22.3 | like it's going to be more than a month or two, we will pause our Patreon during that time |
| 1:26.4 | and then start it up again |
| 1:27.5 | as the release draws near, but stay tuned for official announcements about that. Okay, I will talk to you |
| 1:33.9 | again when we release our Q&A, and in the meantime, enjoy the conclusion of Book 2, Chapter 9. The |
