My feeling when I read this post was actually gladness – I know from up close how unbelievably hard you both work on this exchange, what extraordinary love and attention you pour into it, and also how stressful it's been in the last couple of years. You love Holmestice so much, and it shouldn't have to become a thing that exhausts you! So I'm glad for you both that you've made this decision, (very) bittersweet though it is. Holmestice truly is one of the best exchanges out there, and you both have been so much of what made it that way, and – gosh. I am very grateful for you. <3
I'm still not in any kind of place to be able to help or take over modding (as you can tell from that fact that it took a month for me to even get a chance to come back here and comment...); I was going to offer to help a bit again for the winter round if I can, but it sounds like you've got a bunch of people who might be interested in taking over, and training them is a much better use of your winter round time! That said, barring any further catastrophes I'll hopefully be around for that round and could lend a bit of a back-up hand if needed.
And in any case, I will absolutely plan to participate in your Last Bow round. It's gonna be a party. :D
