I keep overestimating my time constraints, this overseas move has really sucked the life out of me. 

At this point, the project is behind schedule. I may be able to catch up, thanks to the big amount of buffer time I built into the timeline, but I'll be frank: I have a new life to accommodate to with my family and by now I need to accept that adapting to life in the tropics is not going to be as simple as I'd thought.

In the limited time I've been able to set aside, I've been in a revision loop: adding in Mothership style guide formatting, going over the editing notes from Will Jobst, and trying to come to terms with the immense amount I've learned from the past year running Flatline on the Blocks, editing several Mothership Month projects, and hosting Ansible Uplink. This is a silly joke graph circling around bsky that I think sums up my revision struggles:

The answer to this bit is: Get over yourself, Chris. 

Jokes aside, the lack of scheduling the dedicated time to work consistently is the main problem. I'm very much a creature of habits, and not having a real routine has been difficult to manage. Once the kiddo is back at school, I feel like landing on the finalized, layout-ready draft will be much easier.

In any case, thanks for your understanding and continued support, folks. 

As I do on all projects I run, I'm committed to sending an update on Twisting Unseen's progress on the second-to-last Monday of each month. Thanks for reading, and talk to you next month.
