Town Hall + Q&A: Responses Highly Desired! (Patreon)

Hey there everyone!

I hope you’ve been able to enjoy your summer and stay as cool as possible through this sweltering heat! It’s been scorching where I’m at (mid-Illinois), so I can’t imagine how bad it can get elsewhere.

Every couple months or so, I’ve pondered the idea of doing these Town Halls of sorts where I basically have a more personal post about what’s going on in my life and ask some questions to y’all about the Patreon and you can return the favor by asking anything you’d like to know or anything. Despite having a relatively decently-sized community, I don’t really get much ability to interact with patrons and I’ve always wanted to change that. As such, how about we finally give this Town Hall idea a shot, shall we? 

In terms of where I’m at with my writing, I’ve been enjoying my work recently and I hope that continues to come across in the content (both the tiered stories and the mini-stories). However, I can’t deny the fact that I’ve felt relatively burnt out with more standard muscle growth fare and eager to try out some new things for a while now. 

A big component to feeling a bit burned out and annoyed with my writing has been the realization that I’ve been really wanting to try and transition to doing more long-form and professional, thought-provoking transformation stories (content for the Meathead tier that is almost always over-10k words). Although writing straight-forward transformations can be fun, I personally love the ability of focusing on the post-transformation and allowing that to be an avenue to explore things like mental and reality changes to fit this new form or the struggle to adapt to these more intense changes. 

There are two reasons why I’ve been unable to commit thus far to going down this road for the Meathead tier. Firstly, I’ve been extremely worried about the concept of deadlines and having to do multi-part stories nonstop. Not only does this hinder my ability of delivering the story to my audience (you the patrons) in a complete package as intended, but it also makes me feel guilty and worried about taking up two to three months of Meathead tier space in order to give me ample time to finish the content without it being rushed. 

Secondly, I’ve also been extremely eager to explore different transformation genres and types of stories – which is both exciting and nerve-wracking to attempt for several reasons. For the most part, I feel as though I’ve become sort of confined and pigeon-holed into being a more standard jock and muscle growth transformation writer and although that’s a great sub-genre to focus on, my love for transformations is multi-faceted with countless areas of interest. Occasionally I’ve dabbled in a story diving into some of these themes (gender swaps, DILFs / age progression, racial changes, and weight gain), but I’ve always felt too nervous to fully invest in full-length stories about these areas due to worry of alienating my audience and sending patrons elsewhere. This fear is a big concern of mine as due to my status as a part-time worker, this Patreon is a main contributor towards my income.

So before I open up the floor to any patrons who would like to voice their thoughts or ask any questions down in the comments below, I want to propose my own questions to anyone reading this. 

Firstly, if I did more long-form work, would you be fine with it taking up multiple spots on the Meathead tier over the course of several months? 

Secondly, are the themes listed above (gender swaps [both MtF and FtM], DILFs / age progression, racial changes, and weight gain) things that you would still be interested in reading?

I’d appreciate as many responses as possible down below and once you answer those questions and have any of your own, feel free to also comment them or even DM me here or on Discord! 

I’m always down to chat and interact with people, so don’t hesitate!

Thanks,

S-C (Nate)
