Hey, everyone! Sorry I've been kind of MIA for a bit, but things have been a bit of a mess lately, so I figured I should kinda touch base with y'all, so you wouldn't think I'd abandoned everything.
The main problem I've had in the last few weeks is that the idjits in the higher offices at work are basically trying to kill us. One of our main machines has been on it's last legs since September, and has been crapping out on a regular basis while they've been waiting on the parts to come from overseas, but instead of easing up on the production schedule, they've actually been taking new orders, which just puts us further behind. Therefore, we've been working 10 hour shifts, 7 days a week, for over a month, and everyone is exhausted. So I'll come home, eat, and try to write, or work on Christmas gifts, and usually end up going facedown in my keyboard or my cutting mat.
Fortunately, they finally got the part the day before Thanksgiving, and had maintenance fix it over the weekend, so they say that this will hopefully be the last week of overtime if we can start catching up, so I'll hopefully be able to get back on track soon. I've been working on a new chapter for "COAL", and I'll try to get it out tomorrow or Wednesday, and after that, I'm gonna try to alternate between that one and "Priceless" at least one chapter a week until after Christmas, when I won't need to split my time between this and finishing up the gifts I'm making. So thanx for being patient, and I hope to have everything back to normal soon.
Have a great rest of your day/night! :-D
