SRP has been quietly building behind the scenes, and now we’re opening the doors a little wider. In this first official post on the new SRP blog, Mark lays out what’s coming: a cleaner store experience, a proper SRP Starter Library, the debut of erotica author Morgan Pearce, more behind-the-scenes content on Substack and YouTube, smarter Kickstarters, and a renewed focus on genuine community over algorithm-chasing. It’s a glimpse of the SRP we’ve been working toward—and the one we’re excited to share.

After thirteen books, too many late nights, and a kingdom’s worth of research, the Once and Future Hearts series is finally drawing to a close — and we’re going out with a bang. For the first time ever, we’re releasing a 13-book hardcover collector’s set, exclusive to Kickstarter. If you’ve loved this saga — or are just discovering it — this is your chance to own the entire series in a beautiful, keepsake edition… and get the final book, Camlann, six months ahead of the public release.
