The title speaks for itself, I suppose. I was really unhappy with the previous update, so went back and expanded on it quite a lot, but also flubbed on getting the update done due to work complications. I'm not sure whether to delay another day or make another clean break and get my schedule back properly. I feel like stability is really important to me in being able to put out readable writing. 

...though, speaking of that, I am definitively quitting my freelancing and cruising on savings for a bit. Things have gotten lousy. So that should free up a lot more time for writing, unless I end up finding something else.

Sorry as always and thanks for being so patient with me.

(Also, it seems like a few people increased their pledges in response to me saying this in Discord. I'm really flattered and amazed by your kindness, but you don't have to do that!! I'll be okay one way or the other!!! You shouldn't reward me for not getting enough work done!!!!!)

Related to your last paragraph, I just noticed a weird thing about the pricing model. I currently pay 25% VAT on my pledges, but this VAT is only calculated on the part of the pledge, so if I pledge at the 90 (LOCAL CURRENCY HERE) tier, I pay 25% VAT on everything, meaning I'll have to pledge 112.50 in total. But if I instead choose the 45 tier, but manually pledge 90 I only pay VAT on 22.50 of the pledge, so 95.63 in total. So if I'm correct, you'll get the same in both cases, but I'll pay almost 20 less. Or does Patreon take a different take on the "above pledge tier" amount? EDIT: I tried googling how this works but didn't find anything. I lowered my tier but increased my pledge so that I pay the same, but *maybe* you'll get more??

I'm really sorry work has sucked so much for you lately! I hope you can get into a better situation soon, whether that's finding something better or making more out of your creative writing or both. I know I always say it, but I don't think the updates lately have been bad! I think the last two especially have been really good, a strong emotional/introspective chapter followed by a good "investigation" chapter with a lot of new clues to various mysteries presented in an interesting way. The new update definitely makes it even stronger, especially the part with Su trying to psychoanalyse her own recorded-self which is super surreal and fun, but I definitely don't think the story has felt like a mess lately or anything, it seems to be coming together really well. But of course it's important to be happy with what you write and to keep checking the little details when it comes to a mystery, so it's great if your freeing up time will help you to do that! I hope it will do you good to be able to focus more exclusively on it for a while, having to mentally switch gears between writing such different things every week must take a lot of mental energy and it's impressive that you've been able to do it all this time!
