Sniff Test

I think it would be nice for some transparency. This isn't a dig at you Daphne, the schedule or anything. I think it's just that, as a paying customer, when there are 3 weeks of no content, there is some sort of explanation needed, whether that be positive or negative, I think it would benefit the subscribers.

Er... did you not get the 2025 Holiday Newsletter email (which came out very late on Christmas Eve/very early Christmas Day dependant upon your time zone), which covered the situation in detail (and apologised profusely although it's clear that it wasn't really Daphner's fault - although she wasn't trying for the sympathy vote).
If anyone doesn't think that Daphne isn't the sort of person who would take it all personally I would suggest that they are sadly mistaken. I just hope she doesn't overdo it with her recovery actions. (You won't will you Daphne - promise?)
Happy New Year everyone!

Whoops I think I got confused with my double negative. I mean to end:

I will admit that I didn’t get that newsletter for whatever reason

What was the gist of it?

About why things have been so behind: There are a bunch of reasons for it that are really not that important, because we're not digging for any excuses, but they include some health issues (now cleared up), some problems with the production pipeline, and a few other things, in kind of a perfect storm of publishing unpleasantness. Then it goes on to say: So, first, the most important thing: We will catch up, and everyone can look forward to a full 52 of our standard issues, both in the future and looking back, once our schedule is back to normal. (That is, if we missed a week, you can look forward to a double week coming up.) It didn't give any timelines for when the catch-up would be or when it would be back to normal.

I am also in this boat and didn't get the newsletter, thank you so much for clearing that up and sharing the message
