First off, I'll submit chapter 22 later today. I can't tell you exactly how late that will be. It got one review so far and I'm waiting for a second but will submit it before midnight with or without it (my time that is, GMT + 1:00).
I am annoyed as much as you are that my writing and release schedule still isn't back where I want it to be, but I can't help it. The reasons are out of my sphere of influence.
This leads to another notion. I am posting this story chapter by chapter but it isn't a serial. I do it like that because it's more fun for me but it also has a disadvantage. Released chapter by chapter you readers might feel disappointed if nothing extraordinary happens after you had to wait weeks for a new update. Sometimes I have to remind myself I'm writing a novel and not a series. A novel needs pacing, otherwise the story will read like the evening news when it's completed.
So I beg for your patience, it's always calm before the storm.
Sincerely,
Robberhands
I got an anonymous email asking when the next chapter of the story could be awaited. The answer is, it should have been written about three weeks ago but I didn't have the time. Next week I probably will have and the chapter should be out by the weekend. Once again, I will not abandon the story.
Sincerely,
Robberhands
If you want to make the gods laugh, tell them your plans.
That means it wasn't as quiet and peaceful at home as I had hoped it would be. So once more the next chapter wasn't finished within the time frame I am still aiming for. At least it didn't take another month though and yesterday I sent chapter 15 to my editors. It's also a bit longer with 40 kb text than my usual 28-30 kb. I had to prevent a cliffhanger ending because I didn't want to strain your patience any more than I already did.
Now I'm waiting to get the reviews and just like you, I have to be patient.
Sincerely,
Robberhands
After two weeks of leave from home for work reasons I took an unplanned vacation and that's the reason for the lack of progress on Family Business. I'm back since the last weekend and yesterday I sent chapter 14 to my editors. One of them replied to me already that he won't be able to look it over before Monday.
That's the actual status. Neither did I vanish nor did I abandon the story. I'm writing and hopefully will be able to reach a weekly update schedule again.
Sincerely,
Robberhands
When I wrote the new synapsis for Law of the Blood, I originally had a line in it stating that the story is "no action adventure". Chipster82, one of my three overwrought editors, disagreed, because his affinity for action and adventure stories is and was a major reason for him to start reading LotB and continues to be one.
I had to agree and in reaction I wrote chapter 8. If you liked it let me know, if you didn't, complain about it to Chipster82!
