Why I haven't been active


Hi guys,

So, first of all: this is not a game update. It is an explanation about why I've been AWOL and why we haven't had an update in a while. 

I have a chronic disease that me and 8 different doctors still haven't been able to totally understand. It might be a ton of things, including but not limited to arthritis and tendonitis. Exams are frustratingly inconclusive.

I'll have highs when I'm able to write and have a quasi-normal life and lows where I can barely wash myself because my arms hurt so much.

I already use speech to text software and I code on my phone (phone is better than PC for me, pain wise).

The last few months have been, for lack of a better word, hell.

Things are now better. I'm still in pain but able to type this message out, which is a definite improvement.

I intend to resume writing this weekend if possible. I have at least 10 chapters all mapped out in my head. It all really depends on my body. 

I am sorry for not delivering timely updates. It kills me to disappoint readers/players.

As a reader myself, I understand how frustrating it is to expect an update for a piece of work and not getting it. Be it a new release of a porn game or a new season of a TV show. 

I truly am doing my best. I'm sorry. 

TLDR: my chronic disease prevented me from writing these last months. Will resume work on it ASAP. 

Xoxo,

Alex

I hope this project and interacting with your players is a bit of your bright spot in what you’ve been going through. It’s terrible that you’re in pain but really amazing that you’re so dedicated despite it all and hanging in there. I hope you stay in a good spot!

It certainly is. I was very much stifled creatively and this project has been a breath of fresh air (despite sometimes adding to the pain). I know this reply is months too late, but I read every comment at the time and it meant the world to me.

... So sorry... 

You know that this work is above all about sharing our passion, and therefore it must primarily be pure pleasure, and nothing else.

When we have such serious problems, it is above all necessary to pay as much attention to our health as possible and therefore (and by logic) not to do anything that is harmful to your health.

Take good care of yourself, young mate.

I leave you a big hug full of tenderness. 

LOVES

(PS: I'm really sorry I never came to talk to you before ... - I didn't know you really had this kind of problem ... - by dint of reading so much bullshit on the internet, I don't believe in nothing more of what people have been saying for a very long time.)

You're absolutely right. I need to learn to put my health first when I need to do so, It's just frustrating. I know this reply is months too late, but I read every comment at the time and it meant the world to me.

XOXO

Oh man, I'm really sorry for what's happening to you. Please don't push yourself, and I hope you'll get better soon (or at least find out what's happening to your body). Take as much time as you need in writing the next update, we can wait! Your health is more important. And if anyone disagrees, to hell with them!!
