Hi everybun!

I... 

Okay, so this is difficult for me, please bear with me?

I’m taking some time off. 

Not entirely! If I did that, I think I’d go sick in the stomach. But I am going to take a bit or time off.

In July, I’ll be heading over to LitRPGCon in Denver, then a few days after I return, I’m going to Brazil to meet some family. I have a cousin who is graduating and becoming a doctor, and a ton of aunts and great aunts and so on that I never met before. I’ll be staying at one of their places until sometime in August. 

I’m... very stressed about it? I don’t speak the language well, and just the thought of flying makes my insides squirm into a ball.

Having to do all that, on top of writing my usual 10 chapters a week is... maybe too much?

So, the plan is simple. Some stories will go on a temporary hiatus.

These include:

  • Save Scumming

  • Dead Tired

  • Sporemageddon

  • Carrot and Stick  (The most annoying of the lot, since it’s only chapters away from concluding!)

I will be trying my darndest to write one chapter of Cinnamon Bun and two chapters of Stray Cat Strut every week. Posting times might be... no, will be irregular. I might also squeeze in some fanfic.

Honestly, writing fanfiction has always been my go-to way of destressing. Judging by the number of fanfic chapters I put out lately... er... 

Anyway!

I’m sorry for this. I hate it. I wish I was staying home. But I can’t allow myself to be a hermit forever.

Once the end of August rolls around, I should be able to resume my normal pace! You’ll be right back to getting 10+ emails about story updates every week! 

Again, I’m sorry! 

Keep warm; stay cool,

RavensDagger

Go ahead, take your (not really) rest . It's important to unwind.

Staying healthy is the most important thing. Enjoy your family, don’t stress about the language and be careful with the heat

I've said this to many authors over the years - this is effectively a self-employed gig. And the thing I always find hardest when self-employed is building in leave. As in breaks, both sick leave & mandatory fun leave. I, selfishly, want to keep reading your work for quite some time to come. So, anything that prevents you from burning out like a very sharp, flaming birb I'm going to support 110%. In other words - take a break. Let us know that you're taking one, and we'll be back here when you return.

Hmmm. Yes. More time off for the crow. Very good. Crow need time off for keep doing crow things. Like making shiny. And making others make shiny

>>Okay, so this is difficult for me, please bear with me?<< Don't you mean "bear without me" *giggles* Enjoy your time off!

You know there are a lot of people who will never leave their state, much less their country. I know what you post here is typically your fictional writing. Maybe instead you can share some of your experiences about travelling and living in Brazil. Things you miss from home and things you wish home had that you find in Brazil. I imagine some foods might be on that list. Don't be afraid to ask for recipes!

As a fellow author who spends far too much time bullying themselves about every smol gap in writing output, I'll tell ya wht my readers tell me every time I make a post like this: You got a life to live, so live it! We don't mind waiting while you recuperate. The soup will be better if you're better <3

See you at the con. I might dust off my PDFs and see if I have some sort of Hope punk mission, just in case.

LucasSFL

You're coming to Brazil!!! Hope you enjoy the trip!

Chris Volcheck

At least tell us if the MC of Save Scumming got drugged before doing a massive pause! Argh! Other than that, take time for your health!

Late to the party. Have a nice trip. Try to enjoy as much as Cat enjoys exploding some plants and Bun enjoys making friends.
