As with everyone else, I am happy and relieved to hear that everyone is healthy in the Weber household and that an Internet outage is their most noteworthy minor disaster.

Also, given MWW's announced publishing schedule and all the projects he is working on -- not to mention little things like conventions, travel or family and personal time -- I can easily believe he is busier than I have ever been in my not-so-short life.

On the other hand, at 22 days and counting, this is now the 2nd longest gap in HFQ snippets since they started almost 7 months ago, and the 23 day gap in SotS snippets over in the War God forum is now the longest in almost 5 months since those began. So without wanting to put any undue pressure on him, I hope it won't be too much longer before MWW can find an hour or two to relieve the suffering of all the spoiler addicts who are currently suffering from snippet withdrawal pangs.

Extremely glad to hear that our favorite drug dealer and family are OK. With all the bad weather back east in the U.S., I can believe that their internet went down.
Here's to more snippets in March than we got in February. :)

Their internet being out doesn't mean everyone's is out -- like the library or free hotspots.

Or it could just be that her smartphone is adequate for checking and updating facebook, but not adequate for osting snippets?

Answers! I got lots of answers!

I have, in my pocket, a device which can access the entirety of human knowledge, art, and wisdom, from nearly anywhere in the country.

Snippet #19 has just been posted, along with an explanation of what has been a no good very bad month for the Weber household. Nobody nearing death, just lots of life's irksome gotcha's happening one after the other.

So I suppose we can quit posting to this thread for... three days? (Too soon?) A week? Okay, 10 days and I'll echo anybody's concerns! ;)

Thanks RFC and we're immensely relieved that things are going far better for you and yours than our imaginations had us fearing.
