The Annual Meeting was set in Singapore. Flying there was quite a burden for a big guy like me. I'd be traveling all day on the 26th to meet up with a few authors, and wouldn't arrive in Singapore until the early hours of the 27th. March 2nd would also be a full day of travel back, so it would probably take up five days altogether.
I'd definitely bring my laptop to write, I swear. I absolutely wouldn't drink a single drop with those authors who had already finished their books. But based on past experience, updates would be rather difficult during the Annual Meeting.
There would most likely be no updates on the 26th or the 2nd. If I managed to write anything, I'd post it.
If all went well, I should start wrapping things up around March or April. I'd work hard to make up the missed updates! At worst, two cans of Red Bull would keep me going—my heart was devoted to you, my lords!
Please vote at the end and beginning of the month. (Whispering quietly.)
