As I sit here and write this, it has been almost five months since the entire studio staff contracted Covid. While everyone else recovered, albeit with some lingering effects, I took a turn for the worst. Pneumonia settled in on me while I was trying to recover from Covid, and I ended up in the hospital and had to be put on a ventilator. While I was in a serious drugged state where I had tremendous delusions for seven days, doctors and my family did everything they could to ensure I would recover. That I am writing this now is testament to their efforts and I am eternally grateful for everything they have done.
The business, as could be expected, halted during this time, and we are just now looking at getting back to work. While most of the staff have other jobs, as this is still primarily a labor of love, we do have quite a few people that have become interested in what we do. While I do not feel I have let anyone down, I do believe I owe these words to explain our situation and our commitment to come back. We had two loose release dates scheduled for this year, but we will not succeed in achieving them. However, we will begin again in the coming weeks to work on the many projects we still have planned. While my recovery is finally near complete, it will still take some time for the studio to get to back into the full swing of things.
I want to thank everyone out there who has been following us, whether from the beginning or recently. Keep checking here, and eventually on our other social media sites, for future news and eventual release dates of new designs. Thank you again, and it is absolutely wonderful to still be here.
