Return/Update (Patreon)

So, short version, I have problems with depression and anxiety. It's not fun to say that, but... yeah. When I said something about taking a short break because of burnout like two months ago or longer, part of the reason I was doing that was because I saw a stress and other things driven spiral into an anxiety and depression fueled bad mental place coming. Mostly from past experience, I realized that could happen soon, and wanted to take a little break to make sure it didn't. And then right at the end of that little break, some other life stuff happened that fucked me up big time.

To be very quick with it, my grandpa died almost two years ago because of COVID. It sucked, I'm still not really over it. Then, a couple months ago, I hear my other grandpa is dying too, mostly because of his own bad choices. While I love him as a member of my family, I don't really like him, and I was... I don't know how to describe how I thought I was going to be. I kind of shrugged and went, that sucks. He should stop doing the things the doctor it telling him to stop doing.

That is not how I ended up being. At all. He's still not my favorite person, but mostly the whole thing just brought up the grief and depression from losing the grandpa I really did like, which I'm still not over.

So I've been incredibly unproductive for a while.  I'm really sorry to all of you patreons who got caught up in my mess.

I finished a chapter today (way later than I thought I would, we lost power for like two hours today) and it's going up for $10 people right after this, plus $2 and $5 people will get one too. I won't be posting anything for the RR people for a bit until I've gotten more on here for y'all, and then it'll probably be a once a week schedule until I'm back on that grind for more regular finished chapters.

Again, sorry for the lack of communication. Writing was delayed, but it has resumed!
