The state of things (Patreon)

Writing's going poorly. The words aren't coming as smoothly as they should be. I don't know what's the matter. Is it the weather? A minor illness? My mood? Patreon screwing up again? Whatever it is, I'm sure it'll pass soon enough. At least I hope so.

Anyway, as a result, I'm not going to meet this week's deadline. At least not fully. I'm going to rewrite one full half of the body part, then when that's done, I'll push the results. I expect this to be somewhere near the end of the week. According to the planning, this should have been done already, but alas.

As with all the Ruby stuff, this segment is split into three parts depending on your charisma. Overall, you're still going to be getting a hefty, probably more than 15000 word update. Which I guess isn't too bad for a week's work, but I hoped to pump out so much more.

Anyway, after this first half of the body path is pushed, I'll see what I do next. Either a poll, or I'll just push straight on to finishing the body route before moving on to anything else.

Regardless, I think I'm going to wait a bit before adding my own stuff to Ruby. Part of my dip in performance might be due to needing a change in the things I'm writing, but that's just a theory. Again: we'll see how I'm feeling after this update.

As I've alluded to earlier, Patreon did a no-no again. Check your email. If you have a mail from Patreon, your monthly payment might have been declined. I'm just going to insert a screenshot of the mail they sent me on this topic, so I don't have to explain this mess myself.

We were close to the monthly character sheet goal, but due to the Patreon stuff, we are now pretty much back in July. A shame. I wanted to include the first character sheet poll with this post, but alas.

That's all for now. Update later this week. Maybe Friday, maybe during the weekend. Heck, early next week if I can't work my way out of this slump. I hope you'll like it, and I hope you'll think it was worth the week I spent on it.

Thank you all for your continued interest. Sorry for not being able to deliver the full package like I thought I would be able to. I don't even know how I'll be able to make it up to you, but I hope I can find a way. See you all later this week, for another depressing status update, this time hopefully with some actual content to show for.

Edit: with all the bullshit, I forgot to mention this month's shirts will probably be ordered after the update, since there's still a few Noble-tier patrons of which payment shows as declined. Sorry for the delay. I hope you understand.
