Update - October 2023

Hello all!

First things first, the plan for this month.

Up on the Archives right now is the second of the poll-winning kinks, Time-Stop. It's called Capturing The Moment and it'll be posted here on Patreon next week. Next week's uploads will be a chunky chapter of Dark and Light and the fourth chapter of I Have No Mouth (along with another short interlude segment). Beyond that, the plan is to have an additional chapter of both (Dark and Light and I Have No Mouth) later this month, along with a chapter or two of Raw Recruit, and the final of the three kink poll winners - Bimbofication.

Once that Bimbofication story goes up, I'll probably put another poll up too. If not a kink poll, then a bonus story one - I haven't decided yet!

Now that's out of the way, my other plan for October.

So, over the last two and a half weeks or so, I've been a little ill. I'm mostly better now (well enough to write, for sure), but being put out of action like that has shone a light on some of the big issues I've been having in life. Notably, overworking/overburdening myself. To quote a friend of mine, I'm too much of a 'workaholic'. For a long time now, I've been taking on too many responsibilities and duties to handle in my daily life, and its taken a toll on my writing and output.

Basically, I've been chasing this perfect 'balance' between work, life, writing, and rest, and it hasn't been working. I don't have enough time to write, so when I sit down to do it I end up rushing, not being happy with the result, and often end up scrapping what I've written and starting again. And then I can't rest or relax properly afterwards, knowing that I'm failing at what I want to do and falling behind. Which isn't great for productivity or for my sanity.

So, what I'm going to be doing this month is essentially restructuring my life. Shelve projects and cut back on day-job hours, clear up my schedule as much as I can and see about dodging some of those aforementioned responsibilities. My main, number one priority for October is going to be MindSpark and writing - focusing on quality over quantity.

Thank you, as always, for your support. Any questions or comments, drop them below or in a message and I'll get back to you when I can!
