Thank you for reading this far!

  I would love to keep the update schedule, but I forgot how much energy the social obligations during the holiday season sap away. And I did the unforeseeable and scratched the next 13 chapters I had because they just didn't work.

  Since I'll have visitors over come Wednesday, who will stay for 2 weeks, I will set a tentative break for 3.5 weeks, giving myself some time to regenerate after all the activities and the big cleanup are done. I hope to get to write some chapters during that time so I can return to publish them around 13th January (or thereabout).

  Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on the original website.

  I'm very sorry about the short notice.

  Nevertheless...

  I wish you all a fun, relaxing, joyful holiday (whether you celebrate it or not) and a good start into the New Year!
