THANK YOU all the kind words from the anniversary update! I've mostly had my head down working as far as motivation would take me, you all really gave me the juice to get this and another page done from your kind words alone, and a 3rd one in the works. Though this one is *shorter* because I broke the page in… not quite half the next page is longer? (I think this one at a good cliffhanger point though mehehe) but also because it was large enough that my computer was hating the document. Well, I could excuse that part of the slow update schedule last year was due to me doing 3-4 pages at once when I used to break these up into smaller updates– but I just don't know if that's satisfying for you readers or not, getting the equivalent of 3-4 pages at once. That wasn't the *only* thing slowing me down of course but we've been over that before. I went forward with the idea that I'd do short or longer pages as I pleased, and then immediately stuck to "long pages! Looooonger! Longest! Long long paaage!"

But the difference is I actually feel pretty positive right now toward getting these done instead of feeling low after a big update. And you all really helped with that. That really boosted my confidence to get so many nice comic-versary comments and to hear from some folks I hadn't seen in a while. :) So yeah, if I can keep this up maybe I can get a buffer and actually have an update schedule again. Maybe. Don't wanna get too ahead of myself there!
