RWX’s Afterword
Been a hell of a ride, hasn’t it? Told you guys it would be.
A cycle had begun, and others scrambled to donate as well. This was far more work than I had bargained for…but I did what I promised, and this resulted in a virtuous (albeit exhausting) cycles of more updates=>more viewers=>more donations=>more updates. On Dec. 22, I formally started for Coiling Dragon.
Honestly…I’m exhausted. Truly, utterly exhausted. Like Tomatoes before him, RWX, too, needs a good rest. The 90 hour workweek for a year has taken its toll; it’s been rewarding in many ways, both financial and personal, but at the same time, it’s been a killer. I’ve had no social life for a year, I’ve gained ~30 lbs from all that sitting in front of a computer, my right hand cramps at the pinky (from continuous stretching to the ‘shift’) button, I haven’t gone out for a date in ages…the list goes on and on. I tried to not make it too apparent to y’all, but for three or four months now, I’ve essentially been running on fumes, with the main thing keeping me going being the fact that the end was nigh. I giggled hysterically a little each time someone suggested that I was trying to ‘stretch it out’. Good lord…hehe.
And now, it’s over. It’s been an incredible, life-changing year. Thank all of you, each and every one of you, for your love, support, comments, readership, and more. Coiling Dragon is over, but I’m sure there will be other projects I will work on in the future (and I will continue helping out on Desolate Era in IEW’s absence), so this is, dear friends, is farewell but not goodbye. I will take a good, long, rest…and then I’ll be back.
But for now, it is time to hibernate a bit.
