A.N. Update on IRL situation (Patreon)

Hi Patreons, thanks for reading this; it is just giving you an update on some things that are affecting me personally. (Warning it's pretty depressing)

Specifically, my wife and I have been told that our baby is guaranteed to not go the full 38 weeks and will be born premature. This has made things very stressful for us with us having to get ALL THE THINGS for baby with capsule, pram, and get what is known as 00000's clothing along with 000000's and such. So it is rather scary. Throughout this I have been rather stressed out I will admit as yeah, it's not something anyone has done or anything we can control. (For those curious baby has a high risk CCAM)

I still have a pretty large bank of chapters written so I hope I can continue to produce chapters even if it's chewing into safety net. I was hoping to get things way, way more advanced before baby came along and threw my schedule came out.

I have been working with my wife on a few things today on a national holiday here in Australia.

So, that said I am not confident in my ability to get chapters out on time as an induced labour can be called at pretty much any GP/OBY/MFN/Hospital visit that are almost happening every 2-3 days now. I still want to keep writing as I find it very relaxing and fulfilling. It's like the one hobby I have anymore... (read into that as you will...other expectant parents)

So, I toyed with the potential idea of putting a pause on billing if that does occur but with how my patreon is set up to be a pay per 30-day cycle I'm not sure if that will stop people from getting what they paid for. I thought I best be upfront in case something does happen. If something does happen and I can't post chapters I will pause them. 

A first step to lighten any load I'm under would be that I would be stopping chapters to the free sites that let people know how the story is progressing.

Ummmmm, yeah. So positive thoughts and all that? but I thought I should give you a heads-up that things are tense IRL for me and I might be slower or fail to meet my release schedule.

I don't want to shortchange anyone but yeah... I'm sorry for that but it's out of my control and my baby and wife will come first. Thanks for all the support you have given me as there have been some financial decisions that were a lot easier recently due to your support. also thank you in advance to any well-wishers. I appreciate your comments. 

TLDR:- Viva's as-yet unborn baby has a medical condition that professionals have declared a risk to baby. Baby will be in my life months earlier and at much higher risk. Chapters going forward hopefully will remain as they are but there is not a 100% certainty of that. Thanks for your support.
