November Status Update and Progress Report
Added 2016-11-28 06:57:42 +0000 UTCI've been heavily affected by some personal health issues, including my back. That means I didn't have a chance to reach out to my supporters about events going forward.
I have enough money now from contributions that I can proceed directly with a larger scale work as well as several black and white portraits. I'm currently waiting for the chosen artists to get free time in their schedule, as they are both professional artists and have prior commissions and work to complete.
I am currently running behind on the main book but I've managed to plot out several more chapters in advance. I am hoping to complete the Illium main chapters by no later than early January, depending on my health and how much work interferes with things.
As you may know I work for the logistic support company that supports Verizon, and we're dealing with the fallout of the Note 7 (the exploding phone) pullbacks, which has caused me to work a lot of overtime and probably contributed to my back issues. Once that calms down I should have more free time (and less back pain), but I don't know WHEN it will clear up.
As supporters, if you have requested works, snippets or other things you would like done please feel free to let me know.

Sorry to hear about the health issues, hope it will be better soon. For the art work, we'll see it when it's done :) most of us rather wait longer for good quality. The same for the story. I recently started rereading the whole saga so far. And i still loose myself in the story. I've been trying to get the story into a workable Epub file so my old beaten e-reader can read it. Don't like to bring new stuff with me when i have a cruise. seawater is nasty for electronics. If you want i can mail you the Epub file when i'm done with the layout issues so far. I do hope you can catch a break somewhat soon. Long periods of overtime is good for the pay, but pretty bad for body and mind especially over long periods of time. It's the reason i'm looking for a new job. I'm still looking and debating for a work request. the one i was think about was done sometime ago :) so looking into something else. Thanks for the update and the dedication to the story.
