Hi Brianna,
Thanks for keeping in touch and I hope you are having a wonderfully busy summer!
Sorry for my late reply—I was on vacation. Unfortunately, there isn't enough clarity on our side yet. The creative team is currently focused on preparing new titles for the Nuremberg fair, which has slowed down progress on other projects. At the moment, I cannot say exactly when these projects will restart, but it might be in late autumn.
As soon as there is any news, I will let you know. Hopefully, we will be able to fit this into your schedule.
Best regards,
[Your Name]
