Dear Patrons,
Thank you so much for your continued support. It’s actually decreased a bit this month, but I haven’t been releasing on royalroads or scribble hub the last few months, so I didn’t have that steady flow of readers coming from other sites. That just means the people who have chosen to stick with me are loyal, and I hope to keep giving you content for that. Here’s a few ideas I’m planning to roll out soon for you guys.
Announcements
- The Erotic Literature Competition – This competition will actually be announced shortly, but the main take away is there will be a competition where you can submit your short ero story. The winners will be published and I’ll pay to have an illustration done for the top ten stories. The top winner also includes a cash prize.
- A New Voucher – I will probably wait until January to do this, but I will release a new “award” voucher at the start of the new year. So, everyone who’s member from December to January will get an additional voucher. I wanted to do a “12-month voucher” so anyone who has been a patron for 12 months will get a voucher, but that has some complications. I think the easiest way to do it is to just change the code once a year. I suppose someone could just spend $1 once a year and a few book, but meh, I want to keep the system simple.
- PoC: Volume 5 will release this month.
- MDL: Volume 2 has finally gotten an editor, so it too should release this month.
November Goals:
EPASH: Monday and Thursday
NTR Crush: Tuesday, Friday, Sunday
Timefall Saga: Sunday
My Dungeon Life: Monday-Friday (3 a day)
Tales of an Enchantress: Wednesday
I’m not sure if I’m going to finish Hawtness. For the moment, it’s on hiatus until I can release the eBook. If push comes to shove, I’ll just release the rest of the chapters unaltered as a Patreon-only content. The people its popular with are not any of you, it seems. TOAE has been moved to Wednesday, as Saturdays have actually not been a good day for writing for me period.

As an aside, some people are still confused by how I’m doing things… I release a volume of WoW… then I release a volume of EPASH… then I release a volume of WoW again. I started EPASH this last month before I had finished WoW because I was struggling a bit with the final chapters. I got the final chapters out, and that is that. So, no… you’re not getting more WoW for a bit. You’re getting EPASH right now, and I’m taking a break from WoW so when I return to it, it will be good.
For those of you who feel that you’ll only support me with your $1-$15 while the book you want is being released (and complain the release is too slow when it’s NOT being released), well, that’s your prerogative.
For me, it probably won’t mean anything, because I have such excellent support from so many great people. However, speaking up for the little guys, I can tell you that this kind of behavior is a great way to NOT get your favorite books written, let alone written well. You should support the author… not the book. We’re not machines. That was even a major topic in our last podcast, and every author agreed you’d be better off treating us like people than like printers. Well, as always, the people reading this are rarely the people who need to read it.
Thank you guys for not badgering me too much about late releases. Almost everything was released within the schedule I provide (within the 48-hour window I request). A couple of things came a day or three later. However, as you can see, you got everything promised. I think I skilled one Chapter of EPASH because I released two chapters of WoW to finish the series instead. Sue me.
What else? Vampire’s Kiss is a story I’ve already written. I have like 6 some chapters written and I was just putting them up for you guys because there was no reason not to. This still seems to upset some people. I’m still going to periodically release the chapters just because they are written and why not?
As far as Getting Lucky, I was only releasing it between volumes of NTR Crush. It has no volumes and no particular goal. It’s just fluff. NTR Crush should be the first “series” I finish, which only has 6 volumes planned for it. At that point, I can look at starting a new series.
I’ve been dancing around with a lot of ideas. I thought about retooling some of the ones with demos. There is Guy in a Spaceship, Sister House, Pirates of the Storm, or My Girlfriend is a Slime! (haven’t released that one yet). I like aspects of each of them. Guy as exotic alien vaginas. Sister House has the role reversal that is fun. Pirates gives me the crewbuilding, slaves, and such. My Girlfriend is a Slime is about skill acquisition and focuses more on a romance with one girl. I actually don’t want to write any of these as they were written, but I’d like to take the ideas from some of them. I considered pooling several ideas together. How about, a pirate captain with a slimegirl first mate who lives on a waterworld-esque location full of exotic sentient aliens? Also, the world is female-dominated and men are treated as property. How does that sound?
Anyway, thank you for your continued support! You guys are the best!
Sincerely,
Whatsawhizzer
