Skunk Problem

The Daily DM • June 24, 2022

Hello, Dear Readers, I know it’s been a minute since I’ve given an update.

So here’s the deal: I have skunk living under my house. The place where I do my painting smells like skunk and is 100°. If we turn on our air conditioning, the skunk smell comes back worse andin force. It is beyond not pleasant.

To make matters worse, it’s costing me and I’m in a leg to get rid of it. It has been a lot to deal with. As you can imagine.

That said, while it was cool in the morning, I was able to get a little bit of painting done. Mostly on the airship.

I was able to finish the primary wings and back wings and got to work on the front wings a little bit. The hope is that I get to finish up with the prow and the front wings by the end of the week next week. By then the skunk should be gone.

Hopefully.

In other news, I have plans to buy the Platinum Edition of the new Spelljammer campaign setting from Beadle and Grimm. Once I actually get it, I plan on doing an unboxing for it. It doesn’t release until the 17th of August, so that’s still a bit away.

Additionally, in other news, I am having surgery in late July. This means that I likely won’t be providing any kind of updates for a little while. Most likely, if I am up to it, I’ll be providing updates in the form of DM stories, updates on the Ingrates, Kids on Bicycles, and maybe some DM tips or World Building. You know, stuff. I was planning on updating this last week. I still plan on doing those kind of updates, but the skunk thing is really doing a lot to interfere with life in general, let alone The Blog.

Lastly, you may have noticed I have stopped posting updates for you premium subscribers out there. The problem is that my editor has a broken laptop. Still. It’s not looking to get repaired until the end of July. That’s when the part is estimated to come in. So in the meantime, I’m going to start releasing old episodes of the Ingrates. For those of you who have not been in the know, this is our weekly podcast that I have been revealing sneak peeks to for the premium subscribers. You guys finally get to get caught up on the actual podcast itself. I’m very excited about it.

Well, that’s all I have time for today. Keep tuned in for when I finally get rid of the skunk and I’m able to do regular updates!

Until next time, Dear Readers…
