    The Economics of a Wasteland

    Well.

    This is a long overdue post, isn't it? Looking back, I honestly can't believe it's been five years since the last chapter released, and, to get to the point straight away, WEcon is not coming back.

    Wherein I admit I'm Terrible at Blogging Regularly

    I'm terrible at blogging regularly.

    Really, I am. I know this, and every time I break silence to say "this time will be different," a small part of me knows I can't keep that up. And on top of that I know that back in October I promised y'all Chapter 17 would be out in November. Clearly, that never happened. So let me clear the air on one thing, absolutely and definitively:

    Blogpost 6/26/2017 - Where the heck is Chapter 16?

    A perfectly justified question and a complicated answer. As a short answer, Chapter 16 has been delayed by a huge project that Pipistrelle had to take on for work. I've actually seen how much of her time it's been demanding of her, and seen her work through most weekends for the past several months. Perhaps I could have tried to release Chapter 16 in a state without her going through the

    Blogpost 4/10/17 - Breaking the Silence

    Alright, remember when I said that I have a bad habit of keeping quiet if I have nothing to report? Yeah, that kinda happened for a bit there. I got crazy busy IRL (and also maybe a bit too absorbed into NieR Automata), but I return with good news! Chapter 16's draft is complete, and editing has begun!

    Blogpost 2/13/17 - 3 Years of WEcon

    Holy shit, 3 years already. It's kind of amazing to me that I've managed to stick with this for as long as I have, and I have y'all to thank for it. Writing this story and seeing people actually enjoy it enough to talk about it in my comments section has been such an emotional rollercoaster, and I know it sounds cliche, but I really, truly cannot thank you guys enough for the joy you've given

I've been simultaneously procrastinating on this blog post, and stuck on what to say. Part of me has been worried because I originally wanted Chapter 8 to go live on the story's birthday, and part of me has worried that making a post like this is too self-serving. But in the end, I can't help it, I need to say one simple thing:

Thank you.

It's a cliche, I know, but nothing I put in this text field can possibly thank any of you enough for the past year. On February 13, 2014, when I submitted the first chapters of WEcon, I never imagined that a year later I'd be staring at a desktop wallpaper that was fanart, or reading wonderful comments and feedback people have about this silly little fanfiction of mine. Each and every thing that's been said has brought me pure joy, with a potent mix of anxiety. I really do hope that I don't let any of y'all down, and I promise to you that I will do everything I can to make the next year of Wasteland Economics worth your time.

So thank you, each and every one of you that even glanced at my story, for making me the happiest doctorate of pork studies that ever did live.

Man, I haven't been here for that whole year, but it's been a helluva ride. It's promising to be a very eventful year all around, and here's looking forward to it! Also, you're totally allowed to gush in your own journal, man. Anyone who says otherwise is kind of an asshole.
