Status Report - Technically April starts tomorrow, but close enough for my monthly update

I'm cross-posting this little intro between my free blog post and my paid Patreon post, because it pretty much sums everything up.

It's been a rough few weeks with the new job taking up a lot of time (obviously), but it's also been good in it's exercise. I've been getting in more steps and doing low weight/high rep lifting thanks to stocking things. Alas, the time and energy it takes has been leaving me pretty fatigued mentally and physically at the end of the day, so I'm afraid I haven't had the time to write that I want to. I have to keep reminding myself this job is temporary. Even if I stay working at the store until it closes, it's only a few more weeks, and then I get my time back. Until the next thing, anyway.

CURRENT PROJECTS March 31 2025

• Dungeons & Dragons campaign 1: Bard Campaign - Session #6 fully planned. No progress, as we haven't played yet.​
• D&D campaign 2: Tootskies Campaign - Session 0.5 is ready to play, and we should be playing April 9!
• D&D Single Adventure - This is new to the list. I'm at a point where I'm ready to act on a new endeavor. I've played D&D since college, and oddly enough, I've only ever played fully homebrewed adventures. I've made my own for my parties ever since I started DMing. In fact, it wasn't until late 2024 that I ever actually held an official adventure module in my hands. I'll probably start small, but it's on my radar. Hopefully, I can make the first basic adventure happen in April.
  
• Criminal from Birth sequel - I had really hoped to have more done on this in March, but the day job ate into a lot of it. Second Draft Status: 13 of 37 chapters edited. (5 since last update)
• Magic Items book - Outline Status: Roughly 60-65% through with planning, maybe? No progress this month.
