Hello again, I hope you've been well.

Things have been better on this end, unfortunately. Just the other day I learned that my dads cancer is getting worse. We've never been close and I only lived with him for a while as a kid, but it's still something over my head. The same day I also learned that my cat has cancer and probably doesn't have long to live now. I'll likely need to have him put down. Somehow I'm much more broken up over my cat than my dad, so that's a thing lol.I had been on track to have today's map done, but fell off because I've been a bit out of it. I'm yet again waffling on stopping the Thursday maps for now, same reasons as last time. It will likely come out next week instead, I'm sorry yet again. I keep feeling like I can consistently do them while also working on the other larger maps, yet progress continues to be slow. So, I don't really know.In more relevant news, the map that I've been focusing on is an older piece that I've been plucking away at, a 120 x 120 town atop a small mountain. Currently the exterior version with just the roofs is almost done.

I kind of wanted your opinion on something with this map. I could wrap it up soon and publish it with no building interiors. Or I could keep working at it, and either fill out a select few of the buildings, or go even further, and fill them all out. I'm going to throw it to a poll because I really can't decide what I want to do with this piece, especially since it's been a fair amount of time since the last full size piece.Regardless of the direction I go, this will be the largest map that I've ever made, which is kinda cool.

Anyways, thanks as always for sticking around and lending me your support. It's deeply appreciated.

Damn... I'm so sorry to hear all that. Please take the time you need, take care of yourself, and spend some good time with your cat. We'll be here when you're ready to make more maps again, so don't worry about this. For the map, I think it's good as-is. It already serves good utility.

I appreciate the kindness and understanding <3 The little guy doesn't have much energy, but I still steal him for some cuddles where I can lol. And thanks for the input on the map! I'm curious to see what everyone ends up deciding :)

Thursdays will come and go, endlessly so; please prioritize yourself and your immediately family (including and especially kitty!) over us! Thanks for all you do. As for the map: as much as I like interiors, I think it looks great as it is.

Giving the kitty as much attention as his energy allows, poor little guy is losing it pretty quickly. Thank you <3
