& December Update
Happy New Year & happy b-day to the website!
For the second time in a row I was so busy and lost track of stuff thinking I made my monthly update when I didn’t. Where to start where to start?
Personal Update
Since the last update I have been approved for unemployment checks and will be looking into applying for disability soon. I will be getting back to streaming and writing more now that the holidays are over. That’s mostly why late November and December was so quiet.
Around late November I was looking into Job Corps. and found out their IT classes are just a rehash of all the stuff I did and achieved in high school. It would literally be pointless to take the class. Their advanced classes may be a little more useful right now, but the classes are outdated and wouldn’t serve me too much good right now. Therefore I opted not to proceed into attending the school. Other than Thanksgiving this took up a lot of my time in late November as I was preparing to start these classes full time.
Through December it was mostly the holiday stress and blues that kept me unmotivated to do anything. I was a little busy when family came to visit for about 10 days and I had to deal with that. Other than that and Christmas that is all that had me tied up in December.
I want to say again that I would absolutely love to make this community, gaming on twitch, and making these stories a full time or mostly full time thing, but I can’t do it without support from the fans and community. These unemployment checks won’t last forever and who knows if i will be able to get onto disability; on top of that what if i can’t find a new job? So i ask you, please support me in any way you can and with your support I might not even have to find a new job, I could make this my full time job. I will lead this into another way i plan to make money by going into a website update.
Website Update {Visit my website}
I don't normally post website updates here but I feel this one would be nice to hear. I have an idea I have been wanting to try out for a long time. Now that I have a decently high quality mic I want to try to make hypno audio files to put up for sale on my website. I plan to start testing a virtual shop that will be powered by Woocommerce and integrate it into my preferred merchant service provider Square. I would even willing to accept personal file requests for commission and record the scripts i have already released for a discounted price (if the client wants it recorded. It is their script).
The personal files will be rather pricey as i will have to create the script, record the file, master it, and potentially even re-record it. All this takes time and it will all be factored into the base cost of a file. Factors such as topic, complexity, and length of the recording will all affect the price of the quote.
The files I record from my own desires (i.e. not commissioned) will be around $10 – $40 depending on popularity, complexity, topic, length and potential other factors.
I was thinking about using https://shop.lucid-writing.net/ or https://lucid-writing.net/shop to house the store in. It might have to be a separate site to keep the layout of the site as it already is and also because Woocommerce has it’s own themes that might interfere with the theme of the main site. This means I would need to take a few weeks to test the platform before i prepare it for public launch. This is what i have planned after the current commissions queue is done. Now to segue into writing update.
Writing Update
I regret to inform you that absolutely nothing has been done on any personal projects other than some minor brainstorming on the new story i intend to start very soon. I plan to change the lack of releasing personal stories very very soon. I needed extra cash so i prioritized the commissions over personal stories and then the holidays came and screwed me. After i finish this batch of commissions i will work be working on setting up the shop portion of the website and testing my waters with recording those hypno audio files i mentioned in the last section. I want to make 2 or 3 free general files to give people an idea of what they could expect if they buy “premium” kink oriented files from me. After that i don’t plan to record any kink files or accept any commissions until i have at lease 1 chapter both of Bother’s Keeper and the new story released.
That’s the plan anyways. If something comes up and i absolutely need money and Patreon isn’t helping then I will have to take on a few more commissions. I want to get all this done as soon as i possibility can. So much so that i plan to stream a lot less than i used to just to get all this done. I want to ideally get one of these commissions done by the end of this weekend and the other one done before friday next week. Then i hope testing and setting up this Woocommerce stuff won’t take too long. After that i hope all the recording goes smoothly. Best case it’s all done by the end of the month and i’m working on the stories starting February, worst case is that this takes a little longer and i’m working on the stories in march.
That’s pretty much the end of the update and what’s been going on the past 2 months as well as all the stuff i have planned for the near future. Here’s to hopping it all goes smoothly and efficiently.
