2023 Update
Added 2023-01-27 03:47:50 +0000 UTCAs you've presumably noticed, I've taken January off for the most part. Half of this was the usual 'gearing up' break between stories, but the other part of it comes from me developing carpal tunnel syndrome. I was kind of a dummy about it and took weeks to catch on (as in "Boy, my fingers are really bugging me today. I must have slept on my arm wrong."). I've been wearing a wrist brace for close to two weeks now, which has taken care of about 90 percent of the pain/numbness/tingling issues I had, but that last 10 percent is a bit more persistent. I can work, but at a bit slower pace. Inking seems to be the biggest irritant, probably using the most fine motor control. If that last 10 percent doesn't improve in the next few weeks, I'll need to employ more aggressive medical treatment. I hope it won't require surgery, as that would offline me longer, but I'm not sure what else there is that I'm not already doing at the moment.
Anyway, for now I'm working on the next comic story for February patron debut, tentatively titled "Adventures in Horde-sitting".
Thanks, and wish me luck,
Eric Schwartz

I know exactly what you mean. Burn out, physical trauma on one's drawing arm. It is extremely unpleasant. And yet! You have this need and desire to create. Take some time to rest. Your fans, myself included, will still be here.

I can't wait to read the new story but in the meantime you've written so many wonderful stories that I've got plenty to read until you recover completely. Thanks and good luck Mr Schwartz.
