Hey everyone!
Earlier this month I posted this poll regarding shifting Saddlebag's weekly release schedule to four items each week, down from five. I also gave some context. In short, we're moving abroad, and by reducing the output by one item, it affords me the opportunity to stay on top of the Saddlebag monthly releases, work on books and exciting side projects (like Skellies, Callings, and Daemons), and be a better partner to my, well, partner. Overall, it will open me up to have a substantially better work/life balance.
Thanks to your overwhelming support of this change, I'm happy to announce that starting January 1st, I'll be taking Wednesdays off. Coincidentally, that also means I'll be taking January 1st off. Funny timing.
I'll be honest: taking days off with nothing posted at all makes me a little unsettled. While I don't have anything planned for these days off, I wouldn't be surprised if I eventually started sharing other creators' donated content on at least some of those days. If you follow me on Instagram, maybe I'll post some Stories, or even post something non-item-related on Bluesky until then. Again, doing nothing is new territory for me, so we can explore it together to find what rides the line between doing nothing and taking on more work.
We also have a move date! I'll make a separate post to announce the resulting two weeks' time off. As always, I'll be sharing stuff from other creators during the break.
Again, thank you all so much for the fervent support of this life and schedule change for me (and, by extension, my partner). You are the best heroes anyone could ask for.
As always, keep on adventuring!
