[Author Announcement] January Weekend 1

Important Announcement!

I know there has been few updates in the last month or so. I have been very busy in my personal life and with Leah’s life!

The delay in updates has been an entire reworking/organizing of the writing structure that I have been using.

In short, I broke the previous system of using Twine and other ad hoc measures and have shifted to a platform called Arcweave which will help with my organization!

Just a glimpse of what all I have been working on:

Roadmap:

• Near Daily Choices:
• Leah will soon be able to make actions nearly each and every day. No more “weeks go by.” Leah has a busy semester and it is just the 3rd nine weeks so far!
• This is due to the increasing number of interactions that Leah will be having with blackmailers, lovers, and other activities that will occur.
• I have a virtual calendar with school holidays and all included to help me keep track of Leah’s busy life!
• Extra Curriculars
• Extra Curriculars are a fun side bit that will give Leah chances to get involved at PPHS. While they won’t feel too fleshed out early on, they will provide some occasional fun (and naughty) opportunities. If Leah does well with her extracurricular oversight, she might just help increase her overall chance of getting Tenure at the end!
• Chess Club–Turn the nerds into winners.
• Swim Team–don’t lose your top when it comes to match season.
• Student Council–make sure that the prom is a night to remember.
• Game Night or Girls Night
• This feature will be implemented, but will take a back burner. If you see that these chapters aren’t entirely fleshed out, don’t worry–they will get beefed up later.
• Why Game Night or Girls Night?-I wanted to dabble in some fun fantasy roleplaying with Game Night for future projects, and Girls Night gives me a lot of flexibility to insert something different for Leah, as well as more options to interact with her best (and very close) friend, Samantha!
• The focus now is on navigating Leah’s relationship with Mr. Howard, Jonathan, and her list of possible blackmailers.
• January is getting close to finishing up. An extra-long 3-day holiday for MLK weekend will be sure to add some enjoyment.
• February holds a day off with Presidents Day–but wait…it might be an interesting Valentine's Day this year…

Thank you for all your support and your patience! I appreciate the wonderful folks who help support this project!

If you'd like to see this project advance…stay tuned because there may be some interesting news on the horizon. But I won’t say just yet. Keep finding dead ends and errors (please let me know about them!), but most importantly, keep enjoying yourselves!

The first weekend after a full week of classes finally arrived. Leah woke up savoring the sweet taste of freedom from her alarm clock. With a big yawn and an even bigger stretch, she was already thinking about what the upcoming two days could offer her. Maybe she would spend some quality time with Jonathan, doing something fun and local. He'd been talking about going to the local city festival to help them continue their bond as future husband and wife. She could just kick back and relax at home and focus on some "Me" time or maybe work on some lessons for next week or the week after just to get ahead. Leah lingered between these enticing options as Jonathan slept soundly.
