I Can't Do Requests Anymore
3 years ago
So, I'm gonna start off by apologizing. I made a lot of promises to people who wanted stories from me, and I really, truly should not have, so, uh, sorry about that.
But, well, over these past few weeks, I've to realized that I've been dreading getting back to writing requests, and that all of the stories that I was doing for myself and just for plain gifts, which were sitting in my head for way less time, were far more enjoyable.
It's like, all the ideas that you guys proposed were neat and all, but, at this point, they've been weighing on me for so long, two whole years this coming November for the majority of them. Just, sitting here and staring at that list became so frustrating, so daunting, so impossible that I can't stand it anymore, especially with how... sour things have been going for me recently.
You know when you put something off for so long that it just becomes impossible to see the end of it?
Yeah. That.
So I'm cutting them off. I'm doing a fresh start with my request list, and it's going to remain empty until I think I am ready to start again, which I can guarantee won't be happening this year. Once I get done with Kinktober, I'm gonna go back to writing my own stories, which I haven't done in over two years now.
So, yeah, them's the breaks. Sorry folks, I'll get ya something the next time I feel like it.

Gotta be able to do stuff for ourselves every once in a while, we're certainly entitled to that courtesy. And honestly, in my experience, doing so lets our passion shine through and make the resulting work all the better for it. And so even if it's not something someone specific wanted to see, people will like it just the same or even better because of that. (Hell, your personal stories are the ones I originally found that got my attention, so I have at least one account of that being the case, heh.)
Good on ya for keeping things going this long, but believe me, you're more than deserving of a clean slate on this front, and I'd much rather ya do it now than try and keep things going if things aren't really working anymore. So I hope things go well from here, certainly. 👍
