Hey Friends,

  I hope all is going well.

  I just wanted to give everyone an update on what’s going on. Around a month ago, I fell sick with the norovirus, which caused me many problems, especially with the company I work for. I was forced to go to work lest I lose my job, which delayed my recovery. I’ve been unable to take a day off for many months due to their silly behaviour.

  Anyway, I am much better now. I have started working on another story (a Cozy Fantasy Litrpg set in a rural Middle Eastern setting, emphasizing olive farming and bringing a rustic village to prosperity).

  If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

  However, earlier today, I received a call from my work stating that another company had bought them out and that I would no longer work there in two to four weeks. This means I’ll be unemployed unless I find another job, which, considering the UK job market right now, could be an issue.

  I’m not sure what I’m going to do next to pay the bills, and I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. However, I want to give writing a proper shot and try to do it full-time. I want to release five chapters a week, M-F, and hopefully build a Patreon to help me during this difficult time. It won’t be easy, but I do want to try, at least.

  I’ll release a sneak peek of the story once I’m closer to putting the chapters out.

  Any suggestions and advice are always welcome. As always, thank you for reading and supporting the stories I share here; it means a lot.
