Late April Update
Happy belated Easter everyone. I hope you all had a better weekend than I did. I have a few updates today.
Personal
I'd like to start with a personal update since this will be affecting and possibly delaying projects for a few days.
My computer will be out of commission for a few days while I upgrade the hard drive in it to an SSD. While I could clone the old drive I would rather start with a fresh install of windows and then reinstall all my apps and games after that. That's what might take a few days to do.
I'm upgrading the drive because I've always had issue with my computer slowing down from time to time, especially on a boot. I did a little research and my computer came with a 5400 rpm drive (laptop) so that's where the slow down is. I've never noticed my memory or CPU being remotely close to being maxed out on these slowdowns and it usually was the hhd. So this is the solution I have chosen until I am able to focus in building me a desktop computer. Which is what I will now be allocating my patreon and donation funds to; after I pay the bill for the hosting of the website of course.
With my computer out of commission I can't write all that much since I prefer doing it on a keyboard than the cramped screen of my phone and I also won't be able to work on anything with the website since the backend isn't very mobile friendly at times. Not that I had anything planned for the website other then completing the beta site and reviewing the beta applications, but it's still worth noting.
Writing
I have started writing the second chapter of brother's keeper since the last update and it's slowly coming together. At the moment I don't have an ETA on when I will post it, especially with my laptop going out of commission for a few days. I will make be making patreon posts, including teaser and wip, about the progress once I have my laptop up again.
I've also conjured up a cool idea to try to have a YCH action for a story idea I have. I will post the auction sometime this weekend. Stay tuned for that.
Other
I'm hoping that swapping this drive will help the overall performance of my laptop, but I know this won't fix a slow cpu or slow ram. Neither of which should be maxed out from what I want to do with the laptop.
I hope this will allow me to start streaming on twitch again. I will also look into streaming services I can use for patrons to watch while I work on the projects.
