About June

Added 2025-05-12 17:59:06 +0000 UTC

When I made the May schedule, I intentionally left out June, because I will be going on a field trip. On a trip that I've been meaning to do for years, and now it's finally happening.

~drumroll~

I'm going on a road trip, from Alexandria to Aswan, for three weeks, visiting (nearly) every location the game takes place in! I'm soooo so SO excited for it because I've been waiting for this for years! I was going to do it after my wedding, but covid came right then, and after that, we had issues with moving, couldn't afford it, etc. So now that it's finally possible in one trip, is a dream come true.

But that means, I'm not going to update the game at all in June because I won't take my laptop with me. Considering that it doesn't even have a battery, it would only be dead weight anyway.

What I was planning to do instead, was take my sketchbook with me and do lots of sketches on location, plus keep a travel diary so that I can later remember details like, what the weather felt like, how sandy is the sand in this specific spot, etc. I think it's going to be extremely useful for the game, and hopefully interesting for you guys as well!

Here is the question though: Do you want me to freeze the subscriptions for that time? That means, you won't be billed for June. I would still post about what I'm up to and show you sketches and photos of locations from the game, but there will be no writing.
