January is Over. Thank God. Hopefully.

As I've previously mentioned, January sucked for me and I put in a massive sprint to catch up on content in the last week - and, barring the delay to get out the AMA chapters today, the sprint was successful! The word count for January ended up being over 124,300 words.

Yeesh. That's a lot of words.

So! Plans for February.

I have a bunch of messages, emails and Literotica feedback I need to respond to, not to mention comments here on the Patreon posts. Along with getting my public posting back on track, I'm going to stagger this out over the next day or two so if you're waiting to hear back from me - expect that soon. I also don't want to lose all of my momentum on writing. I'm feeling more productive than I have in a couple of months, and it's a good time to put that to use!

The Release Goals for the month are the weekly releases for AMA and OFG, 2 chapters each of FoF and QT:NW, and I want to finish off a final draft of Masseuse and the MILF. FYI, I've also got two ongoing potential slow-drip CHYOA commissions (2k words or less a month), and one big upcoming Commission.

You guys can also expect a few polls this month. I'll be soliciting ideas for updating the Patreon Goals, we're coming up on the next AMA Poll, and if I can roll through the MatM rewrite we'll be getting a new poll for what I should write for a new One-Shot.

Alright! I think that's all for now folks. We broke 300 Patrons last month, but as usual there was a drop with the monthly turnover. I appreciate you all so much, especially for sticking around and maintaining interest when I have shit going on offline. I need to get better a maintaining open communication, so that's a big goal for me to develop over the next couple of months.


Cheers, and happy February!

I believe this was mentioned before, consider opening a Patron discord. They are fairly low maintenance if you have one or two people to moderate them for you and it allows a much more freeform and open discussion. I'm a part of a couple writer and artist discords and we often brainstorm if the author is stuck or provide immediate feedback if they want it on something that is just bugging them. It also allows your community to grow organically(if they want to) and so we could all get to know each other better which would probably lead to less drop off for you as people get comfortable and invested in all this as a social group/book club/whatever instead of just the patreon content. Anyway, just wanted to thumbs up the idea/throw it out there or whatever. I don't think you know me well enough to mod me, but if you need help setting it up or anything like that I am familiar with the process.

A Discord server has been on my mind for a while and I've mentioned it as a potential thing in the past. I think I want to try and get into a couple of other Author discords to see who is doing what. In my non-Erotica life I've been part of many servers, both private and public, and know it's a great tool for community. When I do something like that though I want to make sure I do it 'right' and have done all the research I can. So yes, a Discord will come to be eventually. It's just still in the Brewing phase.

Highly recommend the eden redd and the Virgil Knightley discord since they are usually quite active and low on the toxic factor(def some oddballs tho)

Thanks for all the updates, and here’s hoping February treats you better! Have you considered bundling the stories into epub format? That’s a little easier to read than PDFs. Thanks regardless!

That's something I'll look into, especially if it makes sense to do big 'collections' for the long-running series. Cheers!
