A few of you may already know, but I've been having some laptop issues as of late. I'm hoping to have these sorted out as soon as possible and get back to writing again.

I know it's been a while, but wanted to make sure you all know I'm still here and planning more works!

Looks like a fun one:

Good morning to all of you, thank you again for all of the continued support as we all continue to stay healthy during this pandemic.

As many of you already may know, I'm from NY, aka the epicenter of US coronavirus cases. New York alone has just surpassed 10,000 deaths due to covid19, which is on the same level as other countries.

This has been a tough time for a lot of us and the same is true for me, my family and my friends.

I've lost two family members so far this year. One I think may have been due to covid19, but it's not confirmed. The key words here are "so far." Another close relative is currently in the hospital. Nobody is allowed to visit for fears of spreading the virus.

I have not seen a single friendly face, other than swift, in person in over a month at this point (beyond the person behind the counter when we make our quick run for emergency supplies)

Despite all of this, I'm lucky enough to have a job that I can do from home and have been working for the past month.

To anyone not currently in a hotspot, I want to urge that you continue to follow any and all guidance for distancing, this thing is no joke. That said, I believe we are at a point where everyone is finally taking it seriously.

Thank you for taking the time to read through this if you did, stay healthy!

I want to start by thanking everyone here, I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for all of you.

A few updates on how 2020 is going so far. First, the reason I've been uploading a little less frequently is because I've seemingly been hitting a constant sick cycle since December, hopefully as the weather warms a bit, this will stop.

I also lost a family member last month, which was difficult

On a better note, got promoted at work and have been learning some new systems, and helping hire new programmers.

I'll also be at Denfur later this year! If you plan on going drop me a note, I'd love to get to meet some of you!

Looking to get back into the swing of things soon. Keep an eye out for new chapters and new stories soon!

Sorry for the lack of content the past couple of weeks, I was on vacation at the beginning of the month and then we had a death in the family last week. My mother-in-law had been fighting for the past couple years, we managed to make the last minute trip to see her one last time. I know she's finally at peace

I will be spending the next couple of weeks catching back up on commissions and fun stories.

I'll also be at Aquatifur next week, if you plan on going let me know!

Oh yeah, so I guess I'll be at anthrocon this year :)

As many of you already know, my birthday is tomorrow! Thank you all for the support you've shown me since I started using patreon a few months ago.

I know it's been kind of a slow start, but I'm very excited about the new tiered commission discounts and I plan on starting to open up monthly commission slots offered to patrons and then opening to general a few days later. I'm also toying with the idea of using a more standardized commission form, which should make future commissions a little more structured and easier to complete. More on this at a later date.

I also want to share the current accomplishments for January, the following stories were released this month -

Summer Vacation - Chapter 4 [Jan 2nd, 2064 words]
A New Roommate - Chapter 1 [Jan 3rd, 1668 words]
Lucky Rabbit's Feet - Chapter 3 [Jan 10th, 1849 words]
A New Roommate - Chapter 2 [Jan 15th, 1901 words]
Heist of the Century - Chapter 4 [Pending Review, 1894 words]

Good morning everyone! I just wanted to post to let you all know that I appreciate all who have stuck by me through the years as I developed my writing style and various kinks.

It means so much to me to have you all along for the ride.

I know I've had trouble in the past replying to comments on my posts and I'm trying to get better with that. Please know that if I don't reply automatically, it still means the world to me to see your comments

Thanks!

As part of a restructuring plan, I've decided to update my commission rates for 2019 (note: this will not affect any January commissions)

I tried to balance out the changes so that patrons wouldn't see too much of a difference.

Changes:

Feature length stories

- Single Story increased from $10 -> $15
- Series 1st chapter increased from $15 -> $20
- Series subsequent chapters increased from $10 -> $15

Patreon Tier

- Publisher Tier - Decrease in pledge amount from $25 -> $20

New Patreon Tier Rewards

- [Tip Jar] $1 tier - (New) 10% discount on all commissions
- [Muse] $5 tier - (New) 25% discount on all commissions
- [Publisher] $20 tier - (New) 50% discount on all commissions

Thank you all for your support, it has meant more to me than you can possibly imagine.

I'm writing a new type of short story called Quick T's (quick tease/quick tf), these stories are ~500 words and will be focused specifically on the transformation rather than the backstory/characters. Many of these will feature unnamed characters, some might be extensions of stories I've posted here.

The transformation theme for August is: Shrinking

I will be posting Quick t's stories on FA on a one month lag, meaning all August stories will not be released until September. Immediate access to all quick t's as soon as they are finished will be available to all patrons at the $5 pledge level or higher. The first quick t's will be available to patrons tomorrow morning.

I hope you all enjoy these stories as much as I enjoy writing them. Please consider supporting my patreon:

Will hopefully have part two of Time in a Bottle posted sometime early next week unless my muse works overtime this morning.


***Edit: My muse was definitely with me this morning, at this rate chapter 2 might be released tomorrow morning

Last year we had to have half the roof replaced, I'm nowhere near finished paying that off and now we had to have car repairs done. Just figured out how to pay for that.

Of course then we find out that the roof is leaking in an area the insurance company refused to cover last year because it wasn't visually bad. Well, now there's no doubt anymore. Hopefully they will cover some of the costs, but I expect it to be another large hit

My body might now be 30 years old but I'm still a little kid on the inside xD

My coworkers were amazing today, got a couple nice cards and way too much free food lol

My birthday is a week and a half away. Like every year, I'm not looking forward to getting older. I'm turning the big 3-0

That's all, no big deal

These past couple of weeks have been hectic. My family came home for Christmas, which was fine for the first couple of days but quickly went downhill from there. Yay family drama

The holidays messed with my schedule a bit which resulted in a bit of a hiatus, but I should be getting back to regularly releasing chapters again soon.

Hope your holidays went well and happy new year!

A couple of life updates in case anyone is wondering:

1. My roof is fixed! It cost an arm and a leg and I'll be paying for it for the next two years, but at least it's done and I can move on to the next house projects.

2. Work is still being a pain, but we're nearing the deadline on this project which means over the next couple of weeks my work life is going to be ridiculously overwhelming. Fingers still crossed that this leads to my promotion...

Also fingers crossed that it lightens up significantly once the project is implemented.

3. My sister is having a baby in the next day or two, it's her first and my first nephew. I can't wait to meet him

4. I now have over 400 watchers, which is amazing to me, I never thought so many people would enjoy my kinky detachable stories. I'm considering doing a special story raffle if a hit 500

Thank you all for watching, more stories coming soon!

Had my first opportunity to bowl a perfect game last night, but I blew it in the last frame. Left a random 6 pin standing and ended with a 299.

It was nerve wracking, im not sure there was anything I could have done differently on my last shot

Ugh, I feel like it's always one bad thing after the next. Our roof was damaged in two places due to high winds. Now we need to have half of our garage roof replaced as well as half of our house.

The reason it needs to be replaced rather than repaired? Apparently the roofers who did the last install (prior to me moving in) didn't do a proper installation.

I do consider myself lucky to have good insurance, but its only covering a small portion of the cost, which means another 5 grand coming out of my pocket :(

Its only November 3rd and I already feel like my month is over. There's so much I need to accomplish for work and writing.

My work has been physically and mentally draining me each day, not going to get into it too detailed but I'm a programmer and right now I'm one of two people attempting to implement a major change that will impact every single person in my state, no pressure right?

There's still quite a bit remaining in my commission queue and my plan is to keep going with those at a rate of two or three a week if all goes well.

Thank you all for watching, it means a lot to me!

So, every year I've attempted nano, since 2006. Some have turned out decent, some have flopped. Two are now published with an actual publisher.

It's kind of depressing, but I'm just not sure I have it in me to attempt it this year. I feel like even if I did, I would fail.

I haven't been writing as fast as I used to, maybe because I'm trying too hard to be meticulous. It's possible that if I just let go and start free writing again that I might be able to hit the 50k mark.

I considered the potential of writing a furry novel this year, not sure how it would go...

My mate and I have been fighting a nasty cold for the past week. It doesn't seem to want to leave our system.

I haven't been able to get myself up as early, which makes writing difficult. Hoping to get myself back up to speed this week.

Out of my current (non-commissioned) stories, if I were to add one new chapter to any of them, which one would you guys want to see?

1. Toys
2. Magic Class
3. My Brother's Keeper
4. Cocknapped
5. Family Bonding
6. Photoshopped
7. Hide and Seek
8. Other?

I'd love to hear from my readers, if there's something you really want to see more of, let me know here!
