Amazing gift from my friend Urban, a picture of Tessa from one of my favorite artists! Really happy with this one. Definitely one of the best pics she’s had yet.
As for how I’m doing since last update, pretty good, actually. There’s still pressure in my ear and my back still mildly hurts but the ear’s getting better and stretching out is helping me recover. Shouldn’t be too long...

Hey guys, time to touch base again. I don’t have any amazing news to share. I haven’t done any work since last time I posted and have been letting my meds adjust. Overall I feel a lot better but the last week has prevented me from seeing where I’m at for several reasons. If you recall I mentioned that I hurt my back while cleaning a few months ago and it suddenly relapsed to the point whe...

I’m not a big thanksgiving guy but I do want to say that the biggest thing I’m grateful for this year is all of you. My antidepressant withdrawal doom spiral and ongoing recovery doesn’t take away from what happened earlier this year; I put out my first massively successful book, I got an audiobook contract, and I went from a d-lister to a much bigger name in the space after a long, long ...

Another gift from Urban from the same artist. She looks very cute and bubbly in this one!
Follow-up on yesterday’s post but wow yeah I’m seeing a gigantic mood improvement not even 3 days fully into upping my antidepressants. On a scale of 1-2 I spent most of this year feeling 2-5 mentally and today is the first 8 in recent memory. Just feeling excessively peaceful and relaxed and not...

Another gift Urban got me from the same artist as that other one. I have a few more from them I still need to post but I’ve been lazy/not feeling great.
On that note, I do have some good news to report. I bit the bullet and upped my antidepressant dosage. Whatever damage going off of it did to my brain is rough and going back to the 5mg I was taking pre that isn’t cutting it so I’m ...

Hey guys, just checking in because I’ve been very quiet this month. I don’t have great news to share on the series other than progress has stalled. I’m like five months in on this antidepressant waiting for it to fully settle and while I’m doing a lot better in most other regards the brain fog is the one thing that just isn’t budging. The thing is at this point I’m not as stressed a...

Another gift from Urban! I have another pic I still have to share but I thought I’d post this one first as I like it that much. Slimii remains one of my favorite artists and her take on Stacy is so good.
I want to give a better update on my state of mind right now and say that I haven’t been doing especially well and writing has hit a wall. The state of the world is quite depressing, ...

My friend Urban was trying out a new artist and had Mia done by them! It came out pretty cute, interested in seeing more from them. Haven’t felt like dealing with artists these days so art acquisition has slowed. It will resume whenever my drive does.

Just checking in and letting you know I haven’t made much progress yet. My back injury has been especially bad this week so I’ve been mostly bedridden hoping to ease off of it in between stretches, and the few times I did try to write, nothing major came of it. It’s mostly because we recently got a new bed in our guest room which I use to be alone and it makes healing this damn thing impo...

Whew, okay. It turns out I did not just have one line left like I said yesterday and I did another 1000+ words from there along with a lot of rewriting. I’m feeling real good today though, even better now that I got this done. I hope to have 87 done a lot sooner than this one took, although that’s a very low bar. There are some pretty big changes from my outline present and I’m quite happ...

Next chapter should be tomorrow, I’m just stuck on the last line and my brain fog isn’t going easy on me. I also have all the stuff I need to verify my age here on Patreon so we should be good as soon as I get around to submitting it later today.

Wanted to say something again because I’ve been doing fairly well these past few days. Before I took that break I was struggling to do a few hundred words a day and now I’m doing 1k-1.5k words pretty easily and I’m not constantly rewriting the same few lines over and over again like I was before. I’m definitely not at my prime still, I won’t be happy till I’m back at 3k a day and th...

Not sure why it hasn’t temporarily suspended me yet because I still haven’t verified as there was a problem getting me my replacement birth certificate, but I’ve been quiet thinking it wouldn’t be worth posting anything until it cleared up. But since I still have access here I figured I’d let you know what I’m up to.
I finished my reread of vol 2. Last week and as of a few day...

Because I’m still waiting for my new birth certificate to get were for age verification, Patreon will temporarily suspend me tomorrow. Don’t worry about it too much. I should hopefully be back fairly soon as I paid for fast shipping and all that.

Weirdly enough once we called and scheduled an appointment to have it installed, my internet company turned back on the normal Wi-Fi for us until then. So I’m back now fully, and I’m getting the fiber optic cable shit on Friday. Not much to complain about I suppose.
My first order of business is exactly what I said yesterday- rereading and editing all the chapters of LARPG vol 2 so fa...

This is an extremely loose story idea I had over the last week, week and a half or so. I’m not looking to drop LARPG and move over to this, this is just the first piece of writing I’ve done in over a month and I felt like I should probably get it out since it won’t leave me alone. My condition is feeling better. I don’t know what it’s going to be like when I sit down to work on prose ...

Good news is net should be back next week. Bad news is I put off age verification on Patreon for a lot longer than I should’ve and now they’re finally making me do it. The problem is I don’t have an ID card and don’t know where any of my other stuff is so I’ll have to get that sorted out but I doubt it’ll be in time for the deadline they gave me. It’s not a huge deal, they will ju...

Hey guys, just letting you know things have taken longer than expected due to me pulling something in my back while cleaning on top of not being in a general hurry to return these last few weeks. It’s been nice not worrying about things mostly and pretty much everything is done now so I think it’s feasible I can get the internet back this next week, early next week if especially lazy. Menta...

I’m using my gf’s mobile hotspot thing to check in and say I’m doing okay, cleaning is going fine, maybe we’ll be done sometime next week but I’m not sure. I’m also just enjoying the time off the internet so I’m not in a huge rush. I haven’t done any writing, I’ve mostly been treating this as a vacation. Getting high every day and playing Rimworld lol. It’s hard to say how I...

Gift from Milly! This is just another reason Rebecca doesn’t like the beach. I imagine she would be incredibly good at sandcastles, though! I thought this would make a very funny and cute idea for a pic hehe.

Hey everyone, something I needed to share. I’m going to be without Internet from one to two weeks as my provider is forcing me to switch to fiber optic cable or whatever and because of my bad mood I didn’t manage to get the house clean in time for the deadline. It’s mostly done, But they are requiring the entire house to be clean so that they can inspect where the cables go. It’s really...

Not too much to say but I haven’t really said anything in a while so I’m just updating you all. Next chapter isn’t going great as what little work I’ve done has been subject to lots and lots of rewrites and I’m only about 1k words in so far. Mood isn’t up and down so much, still feeling things stabilize and I’m trying to help that go easier. We will see how things go.

Gift from Milly! Here we see Zoe being forced into going to the beach. Definitely not her thing but miracles happen.
Feeling decent today but there’s been a heatwave for the last two days so I’ve barely done any work on 86 yet. Hoping it clears up soon because it’s making me very annoyed.

And it’s finally done. I think it’s a pretty fun one and a good start to the new day. This last week has been very up and down as I’ve felt the medication starting to straighten me out and stabilize my emotions a lot more compared to a few weeks ago, but I have no idea how long this stabilization phase will last. I’m feeling better but it’s only marginally. I almost didn’t finish th...

Chapter 85 is 3k words in and the last week has been very up and down for me. I had two really good days back to back and then the last few I’ve barely been able to write more than a few words at a time. I’d like to think the fact that I’m actually starting to have good days again is a sign that things are starting to get better but right this second I’m just putting it out there that I...

Just checking in, not much to say. Next chapter is still a few days out. Today was good but the last two I was feeling eh, so I’m only 1.5k words into 85. Felt like I was actually getting somewhere today though and I’m hoping it keeps up. We’ll see.
