i can honestly say that i really appreciate authors that update weekly and even monthly. the authors who are actually dedicated to their book(s). i understand if there is personal issues or a valid excuse, or even major writers block. when you aren't even given an excuse, but in return get no update for nine months, its really annoying, and frankly, i'll forget what your book is even about. so, thank you to all the authors who are dedicated to their books, because y'all are the real mvps. alright, this concludes my 2am rant.
