So, first of all, thanks to all of you for sticking with me this far. Sometimes I get discouraged when the numbers drop unexpectedly, or when it seems like a particular chapter Iāve poured a lot into doesnāt work, or a thousand other things that someone more resilient wouldnāt even notice, but this⦠Well, this is kinda the anniversary of the Patreon page, and seeing how far this has gone is nothing short of awe-inspiring.
Of course, I want more, thatās a given, but just⦠just knowing youāre all there, enjoying my work enough to support me like this⦠Really, I think I havenāt felt this good with my life in years, anxiety and deadlines included. There are more than a hundred regular subscribers, and Iāve got enough commissions that Iām almost making as much as I would on one of those āregular jobā things that Iām allergic to. And the thing is that this keeps growing, so⦠well, Iām hopeful, and enthusiastic, andā¦
Mostly? Grateful.

Damn onion-cutting ninjas, I swearā¦
Anyway! The poll results! This time around, Tales from a Lewd Fantasy World won the poll, which really contributes to improving my mood that much more, and the ā¬5 poll gave me the Chefās Choice option, which means I can do whatever the Heck I want.
A sane writer would now say, āIncluding taking a rest,ā but I donāt think Iām fooling anyone by this point, so the plan is to write the āDemon Girl Next Doorā fic, and maybe, if I have the time, add an extra thing to the schedule (itās very tempting to write a second Konosuba chapter this monthāor the second chapter of Hunger and Longing).
So, speaking of insanity, hereās my tentative schedule for the week. As usual, the disclaimer is that this is aspirationalāand this time doubly so, because I couldnāt write anything today, tomorrow I need to do something with a friend visiting from the UK, Wednesday I need to help my Luddite parents with a robovacuum, and Thursday I need to go say goodbye to visiting Mexican relatives. Out of all this, the robovacuum thing is the one that inspires most dread in me (I used to play Paranoia).
- Monday: That is, todayāat least until the sun rises. The idea is to write the missing All Right! Fine! Iāll Take You! chapter from last week. Iāve already thought it up, now to see if I can get it down on the page.
- Tuesday: Iāll finish the Oregairu chapter if I havenāt done it tonight and start working on the next April 17th.
- Wednesday: Finish April 17th.
- Thursday: Wake-Up Call.
- Friday: All Right! Fine! Iāll Take You!
- Saturday: Rest.
- Sunday: Momoās Assured Defeat! (Title subject to change after writing the fic.)
So, thatās about it. Yet another overly ambitious schedule, letās see just how much of it I manage.
And, again, thank you, everyone!
