Overdue Update
Posted 2 years agoHello everyone,
I realize that it has been a while since I last provided an update. I apologize to those of you who commissioned a story from me and haven't received any updates. I have not disappeared and I am fully intending on completing the commissions I have.
As for where I've been, life hasn't been the kindest lately. My partner and I were forced to move out of the relative comfort of our home in June due to some transphobic landlords. We temporarily had to stay in a tent before briefly renting a home that was, unbeknownst to us, infested with cockroaches. The landlord refused to do anything and threatened to kick us out when we asked him to deal with it. As a result we just had to move again, but can only stay here until March, so the future is still uncertain for us.
Anyway ill spare everyone anymore excruciating details, I just wanted to provide an explanation for my absence. Again, my sincere apologies to those of you still waiting for a commission. I have not abandoned your stories, progress is just very slow due to unstable living conditions.

Update!
Posted 2 years agoHello all,
Just wanted to make a quick post to give an update on commissions and what's been going on with me. I moved to NM about 6 months ago to be with my partner (who is also trans), and while I thought it was an okay place to be at first, it has become apparent that you can't be trans and successful in the city I live in. People are far more bigoted and misogynistic than they want to admit, including our own landlords. As a result, we have no money left and are being forced to move elsewhere.
To those that have commissioned me already, thank you! I am still working through what I have currently and I will finish everything regardless of the move :). If anyone else is interested in a commission, I still have a few slots available. Anything helps with moving costs at this point!
If anyone has questions, please let me know!

Commissions still open!
Posted 2 years agoHey everyone!
Sorry to sound like a broken record, this is just a reminder that I do still have a few open slots for those that are interested in getting a story from me. My partner and I were recently told we have to move on our already tight budget so any little bit helps! Note or email if you are interested!
Thank you to those that have already claimed a slot, I'm very grateful and am working hard on your commissions :)

Opening Commissions! Also Hi!
Posted 3 years agoHello everyone!
I realize it's been quite some time since I last posted here, but life has been busy! Between transition, moving to another state, and getting engaged, my plate has been pretty full. However, the recent move and change of circumstances have also given me an opportunity to start writing again so I've been slowly chipping away at a personal project and also decided that while I'm at it, I should open commissions again :).
For anyone that is interested in getting a commission, there is a first-time discount on your first story (even to those I have done commissions for in the past will receive the discount). There are more details regarding commissions and how to request them on the commission tab on my profile, but I will provide a quick summary of the special and pricing here as well:
**Special for those commissioning for the first time! Your rate will be $50 per 1000 words (about 4 pages) for your first story. After your first commission, the price is then $75 per 1000 words**
I'm happy to be back and I look forward to writing more smutty stories for you all ;)
P.S. I am only able to take two commissions at a time, and it is first come, first serve! However, I can create a waitlist if there are more than 2 people asking for commissions at any given time :)

An update and the beginning of my new life..
Posted 4 years agoHello everyone,
To anyone that regularly still follows my page despite it being rather in active for a while, thank you for sticking around! I'm still working on my personal project although progress is slow. So page is not dead, just slow-going!
Now onto the real reason I decided to create this journal. For a long time now, I have always felt something was missing from my life or that I was just sitting around waiting for something to happen without really knowing what or why. It's part of why I had such a fascination with TF in general, it was fun and gave me a chance to create a world where imagination was the only limit. It was a place to escape reality, but I couldn't really understand why I felt I had to escape. I had always just explained my strange interests away by saying "oh, it's a just a fetish" or "I guess I'm just weird." Part of me could never fully accept these explanations and as I got a little older, the more I explored who I was and who I wanted to be. It wasn't until last week that I finally fully realized and accepted that I was transgender.
It's hard to explain, but when you are living in a body you don't feel comfortable in, you might find ways to push it out of mind, that it's just some strange fantasy that only has connections with your sexual interests. In my case I made myself believe this was true and as a result, I felt guilt and shame for many years. I kept my true self hidden from those I love and care about most. Now at 26, I realize this was the biggest mistake I could have made. In hiding my true self from everyone around me, I also hid who I was from myself (as weird as this sounds). As scary as it's been this past week, it's also the happiest I've been in years, finally knowing I don't have to hide anymore and I can start the life I truly want.
For anyone struggling with their identity, just know it's okay to just be you, whatever or whoever that might be. The hardest part may be accepting that the body/life you were born into is not the one you want, but take it from someone who's been hiding for a long time. When you accept this fact and start to do something about it, you can feel better too. While I'm no expert and am just beginning my transition, coming out to my friends and family has so far been the best decision I've ever made.
Anyway, I'm not trying to sound too preachy or like I'm an expert on gender identity, I just wanted to share my experience so that it might hopefully help others. To cap this off, I'll leave a quote that one my good friends gave me in case you feel like this isn't possible or fear what others might think of you:
"Don't take anything personally. Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won't be the victim of needless suffering."
-Don Miguel Ruiz
P.S. If anyone wants to talk, whether you're struggling with something like this or not, feel free to comment here or note me if you'd rather have a more private conversation.

Not gone, just slow!
Posted 5 years agoI haven't made an update journal in awhile, so I figured I should give an update to those of you who are still actively watching. It has been quite some time since I finished my last story and a lot has changed since then, including getting a new job. That takes up most of my time now, but in my downtime I have been slowly chipping away at a new story with some themes I have not explored before. I don't want to give too much away, but this is proving to be the start of what may be a long story with several parts and possibly more stories using the world I am attempting to create. It's somewhat Science Fiction, taking place in a futuristic city where a pharmaceutical company has created a publicly distributed product capable of changing people in many ways (I'm not a scientist, so don't expect super complex explanations of how the products would work, besides I would prefer to focus on the characters and how they are affected by their expected or unexpected changes). Maybe it's not the most original idea, but it has certainly given me a number of ideas for stories that can take place in the world which is exciting for me since I've been having trouble coming up with new ideas for some time now. Anyway, just wanted to give a bit of an update to those who care to read it, hopefully part one of this story can come to a close soon, so I can share it with you all!
Opening for some commissions!
Posted 7 years agoHey guys, money is a but tight atm so Ive decided I'd open up for a few commissions. I havent been entirely absent from writing though it may seem that way; I've still got a few things in the works. Anyway, due to my college schedule, I'll be capping each commission I receive at 5k words per person just so I'm able to get them done in a reasonable time frame. All my commission info is in the commissions tab on my profile, as usual. If you have any questions as to what I will and wont write, etc. don't hesitate to ask. The best form of communication for me is by email: thisguy42[at]outlook.com
Merry Christmas!
Posted 8 years agoHey everyone! I know I haven't been active in a while, but i wanted to wish everyone a merry christmas/happy holidays! I'm hoping to have something for everyone to read sometime in the next century :p
Update!
Posted 8 years agoHey guys! I figured now was a good time to give an update, especially since that long-standing commission has been completed! It was enjoyable to write, but what a weight off my shoulders, that is. As I had mentioned in my most recent story submission, I have been quite busy with work. It's a very tiring job mentally, and its full time, which eats into the amount of time and energy I have to devote to writing. However, I have several ideas floating around in my head that I have really been itching to get to, so when I have time I will be chipping away at them.
Some of these projects include Replacement Plan Pt. 3 which I have already started on and a couple other new ideas that I hope to make a bit of a series out of. It will be more of a series of stories in the same universe each with different plots, characters, TFs, etc. one of which will include a story behind the TF sequence "Wrong Syringe" I recently uploaded. For the other idea, I will be taking a step out of my comfort zone and writing about some themes and TFs I haven't done/been entirely comfortable with. I don't want to reveal too much about it, but lets just say its gonna have an anthro rabbit TF in it :p. I want to expand the variety of my stories and test my boundaries a bit, so it should be fun!
P.S. Thank you everyone for all of the favorites, feedback and watches! It means a lot that people are sticking around despite my extremely sluggish uploading pace!

Super mysterious strawpoll #2
Posted 9 years agoSo on my previous strawpoll I asked everyone what your favorite outcome of an animal TF was and the feedback was great! After almost 50 votes Feral won by a good margin with 27 votes, followed by Anthro with 15 and Taur in last with 6 votes. I can't say I'm too surprised by the results, Feral tfs are awesome after all ;}. Thanks to everyone who cast their vote! Now, continuing with the trend of polling, here's another strawpoll:
http://www.strawpoll.me/11583274 (Favorite Gender TF)
For this one I am intentionally not including any male TGs because I want to see what people pick when they only have Female gender tfs to choose from. Keep in mind you can vote for more than one option if you can't choose just one between them ;P.
Also, a quick question. If I were to put this as an update on my previous journal would it have put a new journal in everyone's inbox? I'm curious because I'm honestly not sure how the messaging system works in FA for that sort of thing. It's always been a little strange.

Super mysterious strawpoll...
Posted 9 years agoHey guys! So I know I haven't been very active here recently, but I wanted to gather some info about some TF preferences from my watchers for... certain reasons. So I am creating a strawpoll, which is something I haven't really ever done, but it should be fun! Feel free to share your thoughts!

A question for all my watchers!
Posted 10 years agoHey everyone, I have been going over all of the stories I have written and, as is to be expected, some pieces are more popular than others and this made me curious. Which stories of mine do you guys like the most and why? Also what do you not like? I suppose what I most want to know is what is it specifically that you enjoy or dislike? Is it the characters? The type and descriptions of certain transformations? Dialogue? Plot? Etc, etc.
Share any thoughts you have on the matter, all feedback is welcome!

Don't worry I am alive...
Posted 10 years agoI realize I haven't posted anything for a while, but I have been trying to juggle a bunch of stuff (getting a job, college, etc.) while trying to get these comms done. Good news though, I am less than 1000 words from completing my most recent comm, then I'll be moving onto the others in the list. I apologize to my commissioners for taking so long and I hope to make some better progress when this current comm is done!
Thanks for your patience!

Opening one more commission slot!

Note: Don't forget to check the commission tab on my profile page for more info on how I handle commissions! Also, I might open another if I feel I can handle it.

Time for an Update!
Posted 10 years agoOkay I just looked at my last journal and it was in April so I think it's time to give my watchers an update...
Currently I am still working on a commission (it's a sequel for Cowbell, can you guess what I named it?) and I am about 4000 words in so that's half done. Afterwards I may have another commission to write, but if not I will be working on one of my own projects (of which I have too many).
Apologies for how long it takes me to release more stories, but I am a meticulous person and when it comes to writing these I would rather take my time. I am sure people wouldn't enjoy a rushed story even if it is just smut :p
Thanks for watching everyone!

YAY!
Posted 10 years agoAnother story completed! It will be uploaded later tonight. Now what does this mean? I can finally work on my other projects again, as I type this I have started work on Replacement Plan Ch.3 and fuck has it been too long since I touched this series! I honestly couldn't and still can't remember if I gave the main character's mother a damn name, that's bad...
I did scan through the other two chapters and didn't find it, so if I happen to have missed when I gave her a name and I give her a new one in chapter 3, someone let me know! Anyhow, big plans for this one, things may be getting weird for Christa and the people around her. How exactly? You'll have to wait and see! >:]
I will likely be working on two different stories at the same time too, to hopefully maximize my efficiency and sate my desire to write on my many weird fetishes :P

Holy Watchers!
Posted 10 years agoWhere did all these watchers come from?! Thanks for helping me reach 350! Kinda crazy that I even have that many interested in my weird stories and I am flattered.
I hope to bring some good stories to you all soon!
I hope to bring some good stories to you all soon!
Update!
Posted 10 years ago Hey there everyone! I was gonna wait until I reached 350 watchers to post a journal but I know I haven't checked in in a while so I'll do so now!
So I started my spring semester at my college on Feb. 9th so that's been a major reason why I haven't got much done in the way of writing. This semester seems to have more than enough work for me O_o .
Anyway, I wanted to thank all of my new watchers I have gained in the past months, it's kind of crazy how fast that number has gone up!
And just so no one is in the dark, I will give you guys an idea of my plans for my next writing projects:
-Currently: Jlove's story for that contest I had far too long ago (IT'S ALMOST DONE)
-Next: Either gonna be a commission if I get one after I finish this current story. If not, next on my list is Replacement Plan Ch. 3 (which will be full of gratuitous TF) or a new idea I have had brewing for a while (also full of gratuitous TF) but will have a more in-depth story intertwined, but more info on that later.
P.S. Commissions are open! Check my commissions info tab on my profile for details!

Commissions are OPEN!
Posted 10 years agoOkay guys, I am officially opening commissions again! I am opening TWO slots only and will open for more when those two are done. If you haven't already, go read my new policies, terms and conditions as well as prices here: http://www.furaffinity.net/commissions/thisguy18/ BE SURE YOU READ EVERYTHING. Things are a bit different with how I am taking comms now so it's important you know how to reserve and keep a slot.
NOTE: Due to several people having expressed interest in commissions a while back when I was still closed and me not knowing of who contacted me before who, I will be taking whoever contacts me first. Don't worry, if you don't get in now I will get you later :)
