Aila's Ramblings: Break Announcement - It's Gonna be May - 4/30
🕑 Added 2022-04-30 19:00:04 +0000 UTCIt's been a while! I've been holding off since I had Jury Duty and I wasn't sure if I would be selected or not. My schedule would've been completely changed with Jury Duty. While the judge did tell us that the trial would be end by the last weekend of May, we'd still be looking at a sizable amount of time lost as I sit in on a criminal case.
Luckily, I was dismissed as a prospective juror by the attorneys.
The big news is that I will be taking two weeks off at starting at the end of May.
📣 BREAK: May 28th - June 12th.
The next update after my break will be June 13th.
Since this is a break-break, there will be no updates on RR and Patreon. It crosses months because my birthday is actually in the beginning of June and I'm trying to make plans to be a lazy bum. Just eat sushi, buy some cake(s), get a massage, and laze around reading...maybe see my friends, we'll see. >_>
After that, my next break should be at the end of September to early October because we're celebrating my friend's birthday in Hawaii and we're going to spend it eating. :D If I take any good photos of food, I'll share them on discord. I'm not an exciting person; that's all I got.
🎇 In addition, I am considering changing the update schedule to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Somehow, I feel that's a bit easier for everyone to remember and it would free up my weekend nights of worry. I have a large extended family and with Covid restrictions eased, we have more chances to see each other. Sometimes, I get home late and don't want to worry about whether or not a chapter was posted.
I would like to hear any opinions on a schedule change to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. As of right now, some weeks we get 3 chapters and some weeks, we get 4. Changing the schedule will be 3 chapters a week. If I decide to do this change, then it will start after my break.
💖 Thank you all for your time! I hope you guys are doing well and taking care of yourselves.

Yeah lots of authors do MWF successfully and I'm sure you could too. Your the only one I'm following that does every other day and I was always impressed as hell that you manage to put so much quality work out so fast!
Thank you all for your feedback and support! MWF starting June 13th. Until the break, it'll be updates as usual.

I agree too!

You're a damn fine author and you've long since earned my trust in your consistency. Enjoy life. Have a schedule you consider feasible in the long term.

MWF sounds sustainable and predictable, works for me! So glad you are taking time to live life, and scheduled breaks! I have enjoyed the world you are building immensely, but I enjoy a healthy work life balance even more, =)
Agreed

It would be sad to lose the extra chapter, but it grants you a better buffer for tough weeks and protects against burnout

MWF would be great! :)

New shedule sounds fine to me. A little less frequent releases could also help build a backlog for creative down-phases or if you want to take a longer break. First order of bussiness is always to take care of yourself. Better delayed releases than low quality filler or a burnd out author. But that might be just me :D

Do we want cliffs with 3 days wait (Friday post) instead of 2? Hmm, haaaard question!
