Quick Update (Patreon)

Hello!

A quick update for you fine folks, as I can't remember what I've made public here, and what I've only told the people in our community discord.

My health issues persist, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. I spent a week in the hospital a little while back, after my hemoglobin crashed to dangerously low levels. Not an experience I'd recommend. But we got me stable, did a bunch of tests and unpleasant things, and have found some stuff, and ruled some other stuff out.

Since getting out I've been having to continue to get blood transfusions every week or two, which is also not fun. Mostly because I'm a tough stick. If you don't know what that means, just consider yourself lucky. Probably going to have to be following up with some other specialists in the future to continue figuring out what exactly is happening, and how to deal with it.

To be clear, I've dealt with multiple blood and bone marrow failure related conditions for much of my life. Things have just taken a new turn into worse than usual lately thanks to some new issues cropping, including a possible difficult to track down bleeding situation. So it's not new, per say, it's just... even more to deal with than usual.

But I did get a chance to go to a small, local furry con with three of my favorite people, including the world's best gryphon. So that was a great break from all the medical bullshit.

Anyway! Onwards to what you really want an update on... the writing!

I continue to make slow but steady progress on Sins of the Father. Due to all the distractions, I've only got one new chapter for you this month, but... it's also a long one. I could have easily divided it into two, but decided to keep it as it was written, a single long chapter.

And, I'll also post another chapter of The Royal Menagerie.

Both new chapters will be posted tomorrow, August 31st, so look forward to them!
