Good morning everyone. Tyrus here with another report.

First, I'm not going to sugarcoat it: I haven't written anything in about five days. Life's been pretty fucking hectic. With a mix of a family crisis, long work hours, and upgrading my computer, I've had very little time to actually write. My brain's been in survival mode for multiple days in a row and, shit dude, I'm just tired. Things really aren't going my way this month. I'm going to try and get some things done in the next few days, but I think you all know by now promises aren't my strong suit.

Second of all, I finally posted one of my first Advent shorts on my social media! (Instagram, Threads, Tiktok, and oh yeah, also I have a Bluesky now.) It seems to be preforming somewhat well on Tiktok, though I'm sure it could surely be better. I won't make any promises on when the next one will be done, since they're practically full-day projects with the editing, which I am very particular on. I'm also not the biggest fan of voice over, so that's another factor.

Third, as mentioned, life really, REALLY sucks right now. I don't want to cry about my problems in life, but just to name a few things: Almost got my front end hit, my dreams have been about as bad as Flash's, and my motivation and inspiration are about as weak as 10 year old lightbulb. When even my DREAMS are telling me life sucks and I probably need therapy, yeah, I kinda need a break. Not from writing, of course, I still love it, but life's just been too much of a bitch. I'm still alive and breathing, and existing. Sometimes that's enough.

Extreme apologies for the VERY negative report this time, I'm obviously only human, as much as I hate that. Hopefully next report will be better. Thank you for reading, and I hope you all continue to anticipate the next installment in the Advent Novel series!

Good Morning everyone, Tyrus here again. Let's get into it.

First of all, progress on The Advent Part 2 is still coming along. I am aiming for 23 or 24 chapters this time around and nearing ever closer to the end. We're closer than ever, and chapter 20 is halfway finished. I cannot wait for you guys to read the story when it's finished. Again, I planned to finish the book by the end of May, but I just kept writing more and adding more stuff in the chapters and I realized I wanted this book to be good, so I had to delay it. But still, we're moving, and even when I'm not directly working on The Advent, I'm still working on other stories! I'm not going to promise any new dates, but if I had to estimate...I might be finished by Mid-Fall.

Second of all, I finally have all the assets I need to get those short videos going! You know, the stuff I promised last report...and the report before that one...man, I'm awful getting stuff on time. But I PROMISE, next week will be the day I start uploading those short videos. I worked with my artist, Iris, once again to get some small art pieces to add while I talk about the lore, characters, and other interesting things of the story!

Third, my personal life. Work's been busy. Haven't gotten to move out like I planned. Getting pretty tired of everything in my life getting delayed. I know I should probably take a break from beating myself up all the time, but I can't help it. I just want to keep working, but I'm getting discouraged. But I'll get tired, I'll get discouraged, because if there's ONE thing, I know I'll never give up. This is the life I chose, and I'm sticking with it for the long run. I'm committed to what I'm doing, and I know it'll pay off later.
...besides, I can't give up yet. I still gotta finish Doom the Dark Ages, and Deltarune when that releases today.

Augh, anyway, that's all for this report! Thank you for reading, and I hope you all continue to anticipate the next installment in the Advent Novel series!
