Hey Readers, This is a quick update, I've been having a lot of issues lately with my website and Patreon having downtime or other issues that have been preventing me from updating for hours, and in Patreon's case, several days. Times are tough right now and help desks are slammed, but I know there is a lot of ongoing issues right now keeping everything shipshape while under pandemic lockdown. I ask for patience I guess, but if you ever unsure about something, usually I will post to my twitter and facebook about any site issues. We are one page away from kicking off chapter 5 in earnest! Have a Happy May the 4th everyone!
