Running from Corpulence Updates (Audiobook and Alt. Endin...
3 years ago
Hey everyone, it has been a minute since I have written to FA. School as well as plenty of other things have kept me busy and have made me not fully focused on FA, so I do apologize. I hope you are doing alright and appreciate you taking the time to read this journal. Many of you have asked me over the last year what is going on with the Audiobook and Alternative Ending for Running from Corpulence. I wanted to write this journal out to clear the air and give you some concrete answers on what is going on.
There will be good AND bad news...
I will start with the bad.
The audiobook that we were putting together will unfortunately not see the public light. In the simplest terms, this audiobook project was something we bit off more than we could chew. The amount of time
that it took to put this together was longer than expected. We left the project on the back burner for too long which led to the project either needing to be redone or to try and polish the old stuff we had from before. All in all, after careful deliberation from plokishmok3 and our editor @devonthefirewolf, we decided to cancel the project. To all of the people that recorded voice lines for the story, thank you, from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to help us out, and I apologize for not following through with the audiobook. Also huge apologies for those who were looking forward to the audiobook, especially after waiting for almost a year and a half to hear the status of it. This was the best thing to do as I have become way too stressed about it as it sat waiting to be done.
There is some good news to this though, not much, but there is.
The alternative ending (bad ending) will be released to the public next week Friday (2/11) and I am swearing by it. We have the completed chapter written out and WIP art for it. This ending will NOT be canon to the story and is rather a different ending to the story. I know a lot of people wanted to see this but never released it because it was going to come with the audiobook. Since the audiobook is no longer being finished, we can release the alternative ending free of the audiobook. The alt ending picture will not be fully finished but rather colored and sketched as I don't want this art piece to be closely affiliated with the story. This chapter will either be adult or mature-rated as we do not want the chapter to show to non-users and general FA audiences. It makes the most sense to have it be apart from the story.
Thank you once again for all of your guy's patience over the year. Running from Corpulence was a wonderful project to work on and I am saddened that it has to end like this. It was an honor to work with plokishmok3 as he is wonderful to work with. I also want to give a huge shoutout to devonthefirewolf for assisting with the audiobook and helping edit it. I appreciate the time he put into it and am truly sorry for him for closing out the project. This project will mean a whole ton to me as this has formed Maz into someone who can embrace being fat rather than run away from it. The book has a lot of meaning to me and am thankful to be a part of it.
Thank you everyone for taking the time to read this. I hope to keep somewhat active on here and continue to post my art and catch up with current art eventually. Stay safe everyone.
Love,
Maz

Appreciate your understanding Wes~
For XS-W8 we are still planning on doing it, it's just been really slow with the process. Since it is a shorter series we are hoping to finish this series out... Thanks for your understanding~
The audiobook thing is an understandable letdown, but there's a lot of positives to focus on here.
Thanks for your patience with it, I know it has been very long-awaited... So I am sorry for that again.
If it's anything close to the tone of part 11 then I have a feeling it'll be firmly in my alley XD
Besides you got college to think about! The fact you tried to do this on the side is applaud-worthy!
Thanks for your understanding and support! <3
