A couple of things

Hey hello it's me the reigning champion of false promises at this point!

So people must have wondered where the hell I popped off to again after being really active to just disappearing for months on end after golden promises about story updates and real ACTUAL content. I have explanations and a kinda serious matter. First of all I'll cover some reasons.

1. Work work work and more work.
2. Band stuff, I'm writing music and playing a lot of guitar and bass guitar to get a single out. If people are interested in that I'll reveal more info as it becomes available
3. I have recently moved to a new apartment AND got my hands on an actually reliable PC.

Last off, on Xenophobia:

A few years back, I was caught off guard that this story gained traction. I never planned it and certainly couldn't foresee it. Now in my head, this placed a block for myself that I can't release anything for it that is my usual level. It has to be up to par with better stories, it has to be good enough, it has to have the impact of a serious matter that my writing skills could never really achieve.

What this brought to me was a giant block on writing it that I was never able to overcome. Perhaps there's things I can do better or things to work out but to me, it feels like every word, every sentence or situation I put on a document isn't good enough.

Whatever. It just doesn't seem right that a story that had such promise in the context matter and premise ended up like this.

It could've been better off with a better author.

It's ok. Just push past it and write some shit. That's what I'm trying to do.

One thing you may want to consider is treating this as a draft. Put together the story even if there are problems, gather feedback, think it over, and then come back and rewrite it better after you finish the draft. Professional authors frequently rewrite the hell out of things to get them working right, so don't feel bad about finishing it and then doing it again.
