Hey y'all! Been a bit since I put anything up here, but I am still recovering and trying to get better from those surgeries last year. I am still in pain, still unable to type for long stretches, and still just having small spasms and whatnot that make any super fine movements like typing kind of hard. It is... Well, the best thing that I can say is that it really, really sucks. I hate that I can't create for everyone, but I want to get to doing that again. I'm still in therapy for my shoulders, and I am still working on getting back to where I can do my speedwrites and create content for people that I feel is good enough. I know some of you saw that I wrote something for Kikatsu's Secret Santa, but that... Heh, that was about 1/2 of the length of a normal speedwrite and took over twice as long, nearly three times. So, needless to say, I am not well still and I am not going to force content out for everyone when I am not anywhere close to better. I am trying though, and I want everyone to know that. I am taking this seriously, I am working to recover, and I am going to get better. This isn't permanent, and this isn't just something I am holding out on so that I can get away with getting money from people and then not doing the work.

To that end, I am going to start doing something about it once I feel a bit better. I am going to start writing stories again, and working through what I owe, but with a twist to it. Instead of working on time anymore, I am going to work on wordcount. I know, I know... People paid for time, and before I had surgery I could spit out around 3k words in an hour. So, how I am going to rectify that, is that everyone who I owe a speedwrite is going to get a story at around 3k words because of that; just over time rather than in one shot. This is going to take a bit longer... But, I want to get to writing again, and this seems like a good compromise for it. My writing speed is shot, I will totally admit that. I have taken three breaks just writing this journal to let my hands stretch and to get some feeling in my shoulder again because it has been spasming the entire time I have been writing this. It's bad, worse than I let on in fact, and some of it is indeed permanent. The lack of writing isn't though, and I am going to take steps to make sure of that. Feel free to get in touch with me to that end, and let me know suggestions to help or to even just talk. I want to be more social and open going forward, as the last 3 years have really made me a damn hermit.

Anyways, TL:DR is that I am still recovering and not okay, but I have a plan to get things done. Thanks for stopping by!
