So, I need to go and say this, as it has been on my mind for some time now. I understand that people want me to produce work at a faster pace than what I currently do. But the fact of the matter is that I don't write full time!
I would like to, which is why I have my Patreon page up, in the hope that I will be able to write full time. I know that my readers want more now, but the fact is that I work all day, in a machine shop, which doesn't allow much, if any time to write.
Although I wish I could stay at home all day and write, that's just not in the deck of cards at the moment. For those who may a bit skeptical of that, here's a quick breakdown of my usual work day.
I'm up at 6:15AM, prep lunch, eat breakfast & out the door by 7AM. Arrive @ work by 7:25, start work by 7:30 & work until 4:30PM. Leave work and head home @ 4:35, arrive home @ 5:30-6 & eat dinner. Be a husband and father, while making time to try to write and in bed by 11-11:30PM. That is my general work day, in a nutshell. I don't mean to come across as a whiny little shit, but that's the long and short of it.
Don't worry, as I have every intention and motivation to keep writing my stories! I am especially motivated when some of my readers, are kind enough to say that I am in the same league as the mighty Tefler! To me, that is a HUGE compliment and thank you to those who think so! I may not have the same level of freedom as he does currently, but will get there.
I don't vent very often but I do sometimes need to get things off my chest. I'm glad that I at least have readers, fans and followers who are willing to hear me. Thanks for listening.
