Update to Iron Pen in July
🕑 Added 2024-07-24 19:13:22 +0000 UTCSo this is going to be a bit of a shorter one since I still have quite the headache, but I've been going over a few things and my own well-being and as such I've come to the conclusion that trying to run two Iron Pens back to back was not the greatest idea in the world. This is especially since the few weeks that I tried to put in as a break were also when we had to prep a party for the family that is usually stressful in the first place. After seeing the numbers being put up per day I've realized that I hit a level of fatigue that has affected my work and at this point I've been doing less work for more time and while my quality hadn't been affected yet I needed to end the Iron Pen for that reason mainly.
I will be spending the rest of the week to truly recover from the entire thing before going back to my daily 5k words, making sure to get done with the remainder of June's words and then working on the anthology. In order to counter this early ending I'll be adding an extra week to September's Iron pen in order to make up for whatever words don't get done in the interim. Unlike the summer months I don't have anything going on in Sept/Oct months so I can take some extra time in order to get the remaining queue done and still get the 300k words that are slated. The good thing is that once I finish the last three stories from June my queue is pretty caught up so not a lot of wait time from these new stories still.
I know that it's a month or so later then I had hoped I did get quite a few stories done, almost 400k words between the five weeks that I worked during the Iron Pen and that's pushing through the summer.
The other reason for sort of going back to the cafe schedule is that I've recently tasked myself to learn Unity/Godot for Talon, Tooth, and Paw, and I would like to get that started as soon as possible while recovering from the creative fatigue. While I won't be writing (much) this week I'm going to take the time to catch up on posting, so expect quite a few stories coming out and especially with trying out posting anthology chapters here.
That's about it, please put any questions/comments down below.
