    2022 recap

    I’m uncertain of how to feel about this year. 2018 was the worst year of my life at the time which every following year being part of a downward spiral. And I recall 2021 being so miserable for me towards the end that I rarely left the house without a full flask on my person.

    Exploring more options

    In an attempt to provide more options for my readers who wish to support me, I have I have created a Subscribestar account. I understand that some may have become more wary of platforms like Patreon in recent months, and while I would prefer being supported through Patreon since if gives me a little more control on how my payouts work, Subscribestar

    Words fail me

    I got a text from my mother today shortly after my shift started. Was told my father was slipping and would not be with us much longer. This was unexpected, yet not surprising. I had received a similar message a month ago.

    Starting at the bottom

    I suppose everyone reaches a point in their life where everything seems to peak before consistently and persistently trailing downward in a spiral that never ends. For me, that spiral started in mid 2018 and has never let up. And anyone who has kept up knows what the highlights of that descent has been.

Patreon settings · 7:10pm Aug 23rd, 2017

I have decided to push back the proofreading for Volume 2 by another two chapters. One due to the next chapter being a special case I am obligated to get out and secondly since I don't want to keep the readers waiting for the resolution involving the Starlight Glimmer subplot.

However, I would like some input regarding my Patreon page. It's current settings are that my Patrons are charged with every chapter upload. However, I was wondering if it is time to adjust that. It can be set to have Patrons charged every month instead of each upload. Since my chapters can take quite some time to complete, I was wondering if it would be acceptable to adjust this. What do you all think? I don't want to do anything unreasonable.


*EDIT*

I have decided that after I complete the next chapter, I will be setting my Patreon payment settings to monthly.

i would suggest a per-month, manage patreon for another writer and support many and in my head thats the best option

I don't know much about Patreon, but switching the charge to 'per-month' from 'per-update' is probably the best option in my opinion. After all, you don't update as regularly as you used to (no offense). :twilightsheepish:

Two words.

Per.

You don't get enough love as it is.

I'm not sure what you're recommending. Are you saying that I don't put chapters out often enough for that choice to be feasible? Because I do admit they take time.

4647013 This is just my opinion, though I doubt many will agree with my conclusion.

I know you do incredible work, and you put so much effort into each chapter you write. It is my firm belief that each chapter should have a charge, since you regularly update about once a month as it is. If a month rolls a round where you do two chapters, all the better!

Though now that I look at it, I can understand why doing a monthly donation would be more reasonable.

Regardless of what you decide, I'll continue to support you. :twilightsmile:

It's not often I get a chapter out a month. At times, it takes two to three months to get some out.

4647280 Hence why a monthly donation as opposed to a chapter-based donation would be a better choice, yes.

Sorry. It's been a long day, and I'm fixing to go to bed. Brain's not working at one hundred percent right now. Good night!

P.S.
Still supporting!

I'm not big on HIE stories, but I can appreciate hard work.
