Saturday Devlog (August 17) (Patreon)

Hi everyone, hope you're staying safe and healthy! (And for the Indonesians among you - happy independence day!)

I'm very sorry to say this, but there's bad news with regard to the upcoming update: I will have to delay its release by roughly a couple of weeks. This is largely due to my upcoming thesis defense; while the academic workload itself is within my expectations and so was suitably lightened by my preparations prior to this month, I had neglected to consider the administrative workload (of both the defense and the graduation proper), which has turned out to consume the entirety of last week (and is still not finished!).

This has led progress on the next update to stall over the past week, and unfortunately I can't see that changing in the near future. I hope for your understanding as I wrap up this final leg of college, after which I'll be able to transition to writing AMR full-time--which will hopefully lead to a much more consistent update schedule.

As you might expect, this means that Patreon charging will be paused at the end of August. The update initially intended for then will be published around mid-September; I'm also looking to publish an additional update at the end of September, with the two updates combining for a total of somewhere between 30k-40k words.

My apologies once more for the delay. As always, I'm very thankful for your support for the development of A Mage Reborn!
