2021-12-20 17:03:02 +0000 UTC View PostSpecial note: We will be going down to two chapters a week over the holiday break, mostly because I'm going to be busy with family stuff and my son will be home from school. That means no chapters on the 24th and 31st of December. My apologies, but I'm already having some doubts about whether three chapters a week is sustainable for me, and don't want to be stressing about the dwindling backlog during family time.
