Quick Health Update
🕑 Added 2025-10-10 00:21:53 +0000 UTCHello everyone,
I'm alive! High dose of doxycycline knocked me on my back for most of this week, but I'm nearly back to normal today (just tired — slept very poorly last night). I'm going to be throwing myself at the writing tomorrow and over the weekend to catch us up, and all being well we should be fully back on track by the end of next week at the latest.
Sorry for the sick days. Longer term, I want to get into a position where I have a proper buffer for things like this, but the last month or so has been very crazy. What I'm going to do after I'm caught up is try to put out three chapters a week for two weeks to bring the read-ahead up as planned, and if I get any extra done, great. My end goal is to have the read-ahead on +12 (or +14 if we hit $1k) with four chapters in reserve so I don't get caught out by this again.
If I were to do this all over again? I'd aim for +10 chapters read-ahead on launch and set the +12 to 750 and the +14 to 1.5k to give a little more breathing room. However, I've committed, so I'm going to sort it for you as promised.
Separately, I still need to bring in more money to avoid banrkruptcy (about 3x as much), but I can't really do the writing for that until I'm meeting my current obligations to you all. Wish me luck...
Thanks for bearing with me,
LJ
