Hi, Joseph Fink here with an announcement I never thought I'd make. So seven years ago, I finished the show Alice Isn't Dead, and I closed the Patreon, I moved on with my life. I genuinely didn't think I would be writing anymore. And then this year, unexpectedly, I got the urge to write more Alice Isn't Dead. I hadn't seen it coming. I reached out to Disparition and to Jessica, who work on Alice Isn't Dead with me, and fortunately, they were down to do it. And so we have been working on it for the last, I don't know, year or so.

And we will have a sequel series, Alice Isn't Dead, Don't Tell Alice, coming out on April 13th on the Alice Isn't Dead feed. Or you can join our Patreon and get it a week early on April 6. But let me talk about that. There's only three of us working on this show. And basically we just split whatever. money comes in. So we're working entirely for free and hoping that some money comes in. The main way we're going to do that is the Patreon. So I've opened the Alice Isn't Dead Patreon. I've

completely updated. There's entirely new rewards, new tiers. I'm still figuring out. So if you have any comments or things you want, please let me know. I'm opening it up now if you want to support us while we make the show during the production. That would be incredible. That helps us make it, and there's some fun stuff that'll happen during that time. Write with me sessions in which you can write with me on Zoom if you have your own project you need to be working on, and as well as production diaries, other things that will happen when I think of maybe sneak peeks. So you can join now and help us.

That will be at the link in the show notes. Or I will come back and remind you when the show is actually out in April if you want to wait until then. That's fine too, I understand. What you're about to hear is a trailer for this season. This is not a story about Thistle or about Praxis or about the Oracles. I wanted to have Keisha have a brand new adventure. It's not exactly standalone, I guess, because I don't think having some background on who these people are would probably be helpful.

But it is an entirely new story. So please enjoy the trailer for Don't Tell Us. Alice. I need to tell you another story, a different kind of story. Less triumphant, less self-righteous. From the team that brought you, Alice isn't dead. Because in my first story, Alice was the one who did wrong. Vanishing from my life, leaving behind only mourning and memory, comes a brand new sequel series. I'm not saying it's wrong. because I think I have to do it. I'm only saying that I'm going to have to learn to live with it.

Written by Joseph Fink, co-creator of Welcome to Nightvale, and with original music and sound design by Dysperition. My phone rang. And I picked it up. I don't know why. No one picks up the phone anymore, but I did. Starring Jacica Nicole of Fringe, The Good Doctor, and Scandal. But first and last, the voice gave me a warning.

And something in the way she said it made me think I had better pay attention. She said, don't... Alice isn't dead. Don't tell Alice. Coming April 13th, wherever you get your podcasts, and available early and ad-free on our Patreon. Okay, hello again. So remember, you can go to the Patreon, which the link is in the show notes for this episode

or just search Alice Isn't Dead on Patreon. That will be the main way we are able to make this show. And if you can support us while we're producing it, that would be incredible. And we'll have some fun stuff for the people who do that. And if not, we will see you in April with Alice isn't dead. Don't tell Alice. We will be back with regular episodes on the Nightville feed on February 1st.

And we'll see you then.
