March Blog: Well, February... Happened · 6:37pm March 3rd
I never did put up a February blog, breaking my streak... but given what I did post instead... I think it's understandable.
I didn't get any extra hounding from Paypal that I was anticipating, thank goodness, and with you guys going far above and beyond the immediate goal, I could take a little time to centre myself rather than trying to immediately dive back into my to-write list. I feel more in control now and less like there's a pressing weight on top of me.
But the world doesn't ever completely stop, so my Ko-Fi has been flipped over to "March Expenses." Driver's license renewal, various monthly bills, and my ever-present medication costs are looming.
Time to get back to something of a regularish writing schedule... and alongside the sequel for Hot Dragon Inaction and a new chapter for A Song Of Silk And Steel, I think it's time we revisited a certain draconequus plotting his final act of chaos...
