The Lovecraft eZine is going on a very temporary hiatus. I’ll explain below, but before I do, here’s a list of what’s NOT changing during the hiatus:

• The Sunday podcast aka the regular audio podcast. I’ll still do this every Sunday. (See the upcoming guest list here, scroll down a bit.)
• The Patreon podcast and other patreon benefits. I’ll still do several Patreon podcasts per month; in fact, I’ve got a new one coming up this week.
• I’ll (obviously) still be taking care of current advertisers and new advertisers. Gotta keep the ship afloat! If you’re a current advertiser with a question, or someone who is considering advertising, go here for more information and for the contact email address.
• I’m giving out some signed W.H. Pugmire books. I have’t yet had time to select the winners, but I’ll do that during the hiatus.
• Current authors: You know who you are. If you have a book in the works with me, that WILL happen. It will just be a bit delayed.

I won’t be checking email except in unique cases. I need to focus on my son. I’m NOT complaining, because this is helping him, and the folks who contributed to the GoFundMe made it possible, but… Monday through Friday, I drive him to a town an hour away from here. Then he has a treatment done, then we drive an hour back. This pretty much takes up half my day. It exhausts me, and it makes it hard to get much else done, especially considering that I’m dealing with some serious health issues myself — and they are getting worse.

So the bottom line is that the hiatus will continue until the Monday through Friday doctor drives are finished.

Not of that is a complaint. I’m lucky to have the wife and son that I have, and the friends that I’ve made through the eZine mean so much to me. I’m lucky that you folks have made my son’s treatment possible. I’ve got a lot to be thankful for.

As I say, none of that is a complaint — it’s just so you all understand the reason behind the hiatus.

Thanks for all the support, folks. I truly do appreciate it.
