Recovering from COVID-19 this week :(

Hey heroes! Man, what a bummer of a post title, right?

Through an unfortunate series of events, it looks like I've contracted the virus. Fortunately I've been able to keep it isolated to just me, so none of my immediately nearby loved ones have picked it up.

For the vast majority of you who haven't gotten sick, rest assured that it sucks. Please continue to stay vigilant and safe to protect you and those around you.

I am remaining isolated and resting for the next 1 week, which means I'm not making new content in the interim. I feel very conflicted about this decision, but I know it's the right one. I hope you can understand! I'm hoping to be back this time next week.

I've asked a few other creators to share some of their content with you, too. You can expect to see those being released at as regular a pace as possible. These are talented creators who've been kind enough to support me and you during this downtime, so be sure to consider supporting their Patreon campaigns, too!

If any of you are upset that you'll be missing out on a few items this month, please feel free to reach out to me: I can refund your pledge for the month if that's something you feel is warranted.

I'll be sure to keep you aware of any notable changes during my recovery.

Until next time, keep on adventuring—safely!

I work in a hospital and I’ve just been diagnosed with covid.... it’s awful. My head hurts, my throat hurts, my chest hurts and I have a temperature of 39.5 Celsius. All in all this blows... so take all the time you need to get better.

Dude, take a couple of weeks. Your health matters more than anything. Being sick you will fall behind on things more important than this, make sure you take time to get caught up on personal things first.

Take some time and rest! Every decent person should be able to wait a couple of weeks for their content for what is really just a game. Your health is way more important.

I hope you only get what I had, just a head cold with no taste or smell. It's going to be a miserable couple of weeks no matter what, but I hope it goes easy on you.

My wife lost an uncle to it yesterday morning after he was discharged from an overcrowded hospital Friday, so it's no joke at all. By all means, take care of yourself. Health comes first!

I hope you make a swift recovery, but if you've got the virus, shouldn't you be isolating fir more than just the one week?

T
The Griffon's Saddlebag · November 30, 2020

I work from home and have been isolating. I'm expecting to be out of commission for 1 week, even though I'll be isolating until I get a Negative test result.
