Weekly Update - 29 May 2023
Added 2023-05-29 02:00:02 +0000 UTCHello everyone!
This week has brought a rather large change in my personal life—I'm now staying with my partner's family as we look for a place to rent here in Brisbane. The market is frankly awful for renters; everything's way too expensive and still likely to be snapped up within a couple days of being advertised. And of course, two people looking for work just don't look as good on those applications as people with actual current jobs do, so it might take us a lot of work and heartache to find something. So goes life, I suppose.
As to how Asphodel goes, I'm doing pretty well on progress. I should have around 45,000 new words for you all when the BIP comes out this month, so I hope that will be enjoyable for those of you who read them.
I don't foresee my writing schedule being too disrupted by any of this, and I'll do my best to keep up in any case, but I hope you'll have patience with me if things are occasionally a bit later than planned.
Hopefully you're all doing well with June just around the corner, and I'll be back in this space next week with another update. Cheers!

2023-05-29 02:34:50 +0000 UTCI wish you the best of luck in house hunting! Even here in regional Victoria, it's been wild to see the impact the pandemic has had on both the housing and rental markets. It's something I see pretty clearly in my line of work, and it's probably gonna get shaken up again with the state budget changes coming in, too. Big sigh. I haven't even checked what the QLD government are doing regarding recuperating pandemic debt, but I figure it'll be much like ours. I hope it doesn't mess things up too much for you!
