Okay, now where to start this...
          
          Simply put, I'm starting to get to my limits. Don't get me wrong, I love writing, however eventually I won't be able to follow through even with my self-imposed wants.
          
          I tried to take a month off from writing, to rejuvenate a little and to restart with renewed vigor on my story and upcoming stories. There's just a damn snag in the way.
          
          Life.
          
          Or to be much more correct, my work.
          
          I don't really need to explain, but to make it easier to understand I will. I work in a factory, on an Automated HD production line where my job is to oversee the construction, machine settings, quality checking, making progress reports and calling for maintenance when the need arises.
          
          That is fine and dandy, if not for the fact I need to do this on two at once. One is just enough of a challenge on it's own and when there's no one to man the second one for the same position, I have to.
          
          The solution would be to get someone to learn it and so there would be again two man maining the two positions, right?
          
          Yeah well, my current work schedule looks like this.
          
          I get a newbie, that I have to train. IT takes at least 1 month to get them up to the basics. Then another to get the specialized to the current positon and a final month for them to being able to handle the 'everything is good' part and I could leave them unsupervised.
          
          In the last 18 months, I have taught over 8 co-workers. Or had to work alone for both.
          
          It's taxing and has been cutting into my rest, my hobby of writing and you might have noticed... the quality of my writing. I missed posting dates and a couple months ago had to resort to a drastic change.
          
          I started to write less chapters, but longer ones instead in hope of being able ot rest up.
          
          I tried to rest over a month and I'm nowhere closer than where I started...
          
          My current goal is to finish DoS, probably in 80 days if nothing comes to stop me and then retire from writing until when I can finally release all this pent-up stress.

At this current rate, there are about 12 chapters left of DoS and where there would have been 15 chapters I wanted to use for character development. I'm going to have to cut them out sadly. There will not be enough time before I finish or my work will hamper my writing even more.
            
            I want neither to be honest, but I have to settle with the lesser of two evils if I can. So starting from the next chapter, I will have 11 more left and that will conclude the first book for DoS.
            
            I don't want it to end this early, since I still have to finish Part 2 for DoS and then start on the 2 parter that is GE2 : RB, and then move to GE 3 and the stories I planned to add myself.
            
            I will be unable to finish it if work doesn't let me. Sure, some of them recommended to getting a new job and then just resume again, however... I secured a position on my current place where I would lose out on a large amount of pay when changing to a new workplace.
            
            And that is something I cannot afford...
            
            So yeah, sorry about this, but DoS will be cut short and I have to postpone the 2nd book for EXC as well, because I could maybe support writing, but would burn out far too fast at the same time.
            
            Hope you understand.

Feeling a bit under weather, chapter is about halfway complete, but I'm not going to post it that way. I'll turn it instead into a longer chapter with over 5000 words in return.
          
          Sorry for the wait, but I don't want to rush through this and then later be disappointed in it.

And posted the chapter at about 6k words. 
            
            I still cut about 2k words for the next chapter, so that's a sort of head start I guess :D

Next chapter will be posted after New Year break for me.
          
          It's going to be a bit longer chapter considering it's going to wrap up Sierra's current conundrum. Not to mention, finnaly it will be time to dwell into more serious threats.
          
          Icy Damsel will be coming with a pair of menaces.

Well, I had a head start of about 3000 words left over from last chapter I posted. Then again, I did another 2000ish words after my last shift and added another 4000 in last 2 days.
          
          It went down the drain and I have no idea how...
          
          I'm really pissed right now losing a 9000 word chapter before proofreading and posting.
          
          Sorry for the wait, I need to calm myself and restart next week.

I'm going to have to start with an apology once again, this weeks update is going to be postponed.
          
          I had over worked myself amx had been feeling the aftereffects in the past 2 days.
          
          Then there's the Birthday of my Niece that I'm not gonna miss, for anything.
          
          And some personal troubles, I'm not discussing. But probably will have to stress over the next few days and do something about it ASAP.
          
          Tl;dr.
          
          Sorry for not posting this week.

@twistedhurricane21 Thanks Lucci, hopefully I will resume it on this break, in 6 days

Truthfully, I don't feel so good with this heat on.
          
          Yesterday I woke up with a massive nose bleed, and I got a head splitting headache ever since. I'll have to skip this weeks posting, as I got literally nowhere as of yet, however next weeks I will try to get some more in, making it a longer chapter in return if I can.
          
          Or at least, I hope I can. Sorry for the delay.
