Originally, my plan for releasing Chapter 6 was to make that update sooner. As my plans for MerMay and challenging myself to release merfolk content that entire month is refined. I decided to approach things in a different way.
Right now my primary focus is to write the chapters I need for the month. If what I write exceeds that, I will be making chapter updates sooner.
Currently, my goal is to have 5 chapters ready before May. Completing any story is a good first step towards bigger writing projects. So my commitment to finishing this story remains.
