So it's been a while since I posted here. I feel the need to explain.
I've been writing almost nonstop since 2018, and I've had a full-time job the entire time. I hoped that my sales would eventually let me quit my job and write full-time. That hasn't happened and probably never will. I'm okay with that.
But I can't do it anymore.
It's not a matter of not wanting to write anymore - I love to write.
It's not a matter of not knowing what to write. I have Survive and Colonize 6 and Super Babes 8 plotted and ready to go, but I can't write them right now.
There's an expectation in the LitRPG/men's erotica genre of releasing novels every three months or even every month. The truth is, most of those guys write full-time or have ghostwriters. I can't and don't. It's been hard writing on the mornings before work and late into the night after work, and when I finally finish and polish a book, I have to jump right into doing the next one. I can't do it anymore.
Worse than the pace, I've become too focused on word counts and schedules. When I sit down to write, all I can think about is putting a certain number of words on the page, and I can't focus on what those words are. It's destroying my love of writing.
I still want to write these books, and I will. I just don't know how or when, and I know I can't do it at the pace people want. If it's a chapter a day or a chapter a month, that's what it will be.
I can't rightfully continue to charge for a Patreon without providing regular content so I'm closing it down. I'll continue to issue a newsletter but I'll send them when I have something to announce, not every month.
For those who enjoyed my work and might be disappointed, I'm sorry. I really do appreciate all your support.
