State of the Author 2022 · 1:39am Jan 11th, 2022
It's safe to say that 2021 was not a great year for anyone, and that includes myself. I spent quite a lot of it dealing with a bunch of ongoing physical and mental heath issues. None of them were as horrible as some of the things my friends had to deal with, but enough to make a mess of my plans.
Somehow, I managed to keep up writing every day, but there were a lot of days were that was more of a technical thing then anything else, with my very worst day being only 83 words, and my over all average was 572 words a day (yes, I do keep details records of my daily output), though I suspect it's only that high as I had a few weeks of high productivity here and there.
Even then, the majority of that was in a bunch of random fluff that never want past more then a scene or two, if even that. So the actual useful word count is even less then that. I have been working on my ongoing stories, even if it doesn't seem like that. I'm hoping to be able to start posting more. I've not given up on anything, I've just been slower then my usual slow pace.
I'm also hoping to get commissions open again soon.
And because I don't really talk about it as much as I should, I have a ko-fi, and a Pateron. I post my stories usually a week early on the Patreon, as well as posting work in process stories.
