April 2020 (Patreon)

Hi friends. I sincerely apologize that most of our March plans ended up postponed, and I foresee April taking the same slow pace. For that I'm really sorry. Hopefully you guys understand that the whole COVID nonsense has turned everyone's worlds upside down. Both of my workplaces closed and stopped operations. One is a school, so I get no income from that while it's closed and it's closed now for the whole year. The other is a daycare, and they paid us as long as they could, but they simply can't afford to any longer. I am very, very fortunate that I did not get laid off, I still have my jobs, but I've been furloughed. So for the foreseeable future I have no pay, and that's really scary. 

I hope you guys can understand that even though I'm stuck at home and should have all the time in the world to write, the stress and anxiety just eat away at any inspiration I have. I sit down and try to write and all I can think about are real world struggles. My goal, first and foremost, is always to give you guys content that I am proud of. I do not believe I can produce anything I would be proud to give you right now. That doesn't mean I'm not going to keep trying. Here's a small layout of April:

April 13th - Open Collaboration

April 20th - Poetry Monday

I am not committing the When Heroes Fall updates to a certain day because I feel terrible letting you guys down. Right now I cannot say for sure when I will have a rough draft and a final draft ready for you. All I can do is promise you that I will work on it as much as I can, when I can, and I will try my hardest to get something to you this month. As I mentioned in my last post, I know that I am not the only one struggling. If any of you need to freeze or halt your pledge due to this, I completely understand. Your stability is important. You guys are all so important to me.

On that note... I've been playing the new Animal Crossing on the Switch and it is fantastic at reducing stress. If anyone else has been playing, feel free to add me as a friend!

Please stay safe you guys. Stay home as much as you can. I love you all and we will all get through this crazy thing together. You guys have my whole heart.

Love you all <3
