Page 4-28 is up, and it looks like things are starting to heal for our family. And not a moment too soon, as their train will be arriving shortly!
Depending on how things go, this may or may not be the last page of 2024. That said, there have been a couple of updates:
So…there has been another extension. Issue 4 will not end on 32 pages, but rather 36. The dreaded number that caused me to split the originally larger Issue 3 into the current Issues 3 and 4. However, it’s for a good reason. Upon speaking with my fellow writers and my beta readers, the added pages do serve up some needed exposition going into Issue 5, and being that we’re this close to the previously amended end goal of 32 pages, I don’t mind adding a few more on to fully flesh things out.
However, what this also means is that because of how long Issue 4 has been running and how 2024 has just been a complete and utter mess for getting literally anything done through all of getting COVID, going to Japan, getting married, changing jobs three times, and other personal escapades that really have no place being discussed here, once Issue 4 is complete, Electric Fencer will take a 3-month hiatus from posting following the upload of Page 4-36. Whenever that may be, I’m not terribly sure at the moment, but I’m feeling a slight bit of burnout from this year just being as bonkers as it was, and as much as I love Electric Fencer, I don’t want it to die from a lack of self care.
So there’s your warning. We’ll keep things running as they have been for the last few months up until 4-36, and then we’ll take a break from posting to work on pages in the background without significant time pressure.
See you all again when 4-29 goes up!
