Weekly Update #220 (Patreon)

Sorry about no chapters this week without any prior warning. I kind of mentioned in the last update that a lot of drama was happening in real life, and that I was going to step away from it and just ignore it... but oh boy, did I get dragged back in, and I learned a lot of things that are pretty important that I never knew about before which came up really damn suddenly. Things that, had I known about them, I probably would have done things differently regarding my dad. I would have tried to be closer to him and put more effort into our relationship. And I really wish I did now.

But Covid killed him last year, so it's too late for that.

So yeah. As one might be able to guess from where this is going, I... have not been in a good mental place this past week. I know it's not my fault that I was never given this information before, so I shouldn't blame myself too much for it, but it still feels really shitty. He didn't even die more than a year ago, and when he did die, it didn't really bother me that much because I was never close to him. Now that I have this new information... I guess it's like the impact of his death is finally hitting me combined with a mountain of regret on top of it.

And to think that it's all because just one little statement randomly came out in the middle of talking about something only slightly related. Also, it might be frustrating reading this with me being vague about it and not going into details, but giving the full story would be extremely long and personal, and you guys aren't my therapists, so I'm just going to leave it at that.

The point is that I've felt like shit and was nowhere near in the right headspace to write this week, so I didn't. My bad. I think I'm... mostly over it now, though. Or well, maybe not over it, but I'm coping with it. As much as people like to meme about artists making their best works in their darkest moments, that's just not true for me. Whenever I feel like I'm in a dark place, I don't get anything at all done, but then I can write anything at all, no matter how dark it might be, when I'm in a good place.

Anyways, chapters will be back to normal next week.  Sorry again about the unplanned lack of chapters this week.

The good news is that since I'm posting this on a Friday, it means I get to post this accompanying video:

And now for the normal memes 'nd things:

And that's all because I can't find any other memes I find worth posting this week.

13 hours, 9010 words for last week.

The True Endgame

With the battle over, it's time for a bit of winding down and setting up what's going to be the focus of next volume!

Ero Dungeon Online

Alright, so there are probably... going to be three more chapters? Or maybe only two. We'll see. Either way, these next few chapters are basically going to be "epilogue" chapters. Thera has joined the relationship, so it's time to just show what their life is like and what it's going to be like. And then EDO is wrapped up until I potentially decide to revisit in the future to do a major edit of it and publish it.

Lazy Dragon Queen

Every chapter, LDQ gets closer and closer to going full lewd, but coming extremely close to the line and then pulling away is a lot more fun. Especially with LDQ. Anyways, time to actually check out the new battle zone next chapter!

In Closing

I haven't been making as much progress as I wanted to lately, but I did just have my first ever month on Amazon where I made more on Amazon than I am making through Patreon, so that's nice. Now just to get them numbers up even more like an MC grinding numbers in a LitRPG.

But that aside, thanks for putting up with me, and I hope that you continue to enjoy my stories! And please look forward to new chapters next week! Even if the apocalypse happens, I'll still make sure to publish more chapters since I didn't this week.
