shocking breaking news: JEA on indefinite hiatus, IRL obligations suck, news at eleven

Hey, Arc here.

I’ve gotten several very very kind messages asking about the project in the past two months. Which is completely understandable. I know plenty of people follow this blog and not the individual creators. Totes fine.

I do not know if/when JEA can continue.

For myself, I have a full time job that dramatically limits my time (and spoons). For my dear art director, they have a career they have to focus on, which is to me utterly understandable.

It’s extremely disappointing to me personally because…. I know life getting in the way of hobbyist projects is a fact of life, but I was deeply excited for episodes two and three of JEA because…. man I have written for like a decade now and I think JEA’s concept and plan is some of the best shit I have ever thought up.

But I do not have the time nor team that can make the project happen, and I promise from the bottom of my heart, no one is more dismayed about that than me.

Maybe I will win the lottery in a week, and then I promise I would make this shit happen. But at present, capitalism stands in the way.

I’m deeply sorry for this news and I hope the situation changes in the future. But I fear by then, the irons will no longer be hot, and the audience for this project will not exist.

I hope for the best, but I know I have to tell y’all the truth. I hope you all can understand.
