As some of you know, I am in the middle of a slow-motion international retirement move. Enough of the move is done that the new house is comfortable, well-equipped, and easy to live in. However, the old house is still full of far too much stuff, and has a mortgage, property taxes, and all of that. With that in mind, there will be lots of time spent on downsizing and clearing out, which takes away from writing time. I'm also still establishing a routine here and figuring out what works for me. Also, living in the old house will get progressively less efficient as more things are moved out.
With all of that in mind, I have decided to finish posting Book 6 at 2 chapters/week, Monday and Thursday. That adds only a little time, since there are only 7 chapters to go.
The current plan is to start posting Book 7 in April. If I can get to where 2x/week is a viable posting pace before then, I will start early, announcing it as a blog post. Note that 'April' is not well-defined. Somewhere in the month, but that's all for now.
I'll be around and am always happy to get messages (even critical ones). I may reply slowly, though (as I am now).
I hope (but cannot promise) to get the updated Book 1 (and possibly later books) out during the gap. They take little time, comparatively, and the mental load of editing and updating is much different from that of writing. That, and the work is done now, barring some editing on later chapters.
Thank you for reading, and for your patience!
