Hello Bobbii! Glad to see you here. You can communicate any way you're comfortable with. We have quite an active community.

I'm behind you on this, J. I'm doing my best to stick to the schedule, and it's such a heavy feeling, knowing that I'm failing to bring the works for you in time. But I got it - we're going to have more updates on how the work is going.

Thank you so much for the words of support, it's just sometimes I can't tell how long it will take for me to finish the story, and deadlines are helping you to see the picture I'm trying to stick to.

I apologize, J, but it took me waaay longer to finish because it's turned out to have more than 70 pages. I hope it's worth the wait: https://www.patreon.com/posts/56905945

I'm sorry for the delay, but Make Me Proud came out HUGE, and it took much longer time than I expected: https://www.patreon.com/posts/56905945

I would greatly appreciate an update, not particularly on these stories, but on schedules and the amount of content we can expect going forward. I do not mind getting less stories if it means getting them on schedule but leaving people in the dark without releasing anything while still taking money for it just leaves a very sour taste in my mouth. I know it sounds harsh but after so many delays and no information I think it needs to be said.

I agree but also think you can definitely complain about a lack of content if it is promised AND people are paying for it.

The delays are getting to be a bit much. I don't say this as a complaint about 'lack of content', but it seems like you could be more realistic with your deadlines. There's currently no pinned calendar for September (as we turn the page into October), but you could help yourself *a lot* by better setting expectations. Right now, it seems like you need more time, but you are hesitant to share this as an additional delay. If you're up front with the process on things, the Patreon can feel more inclusive, particularly if you're delaying ahead of time instead of informing the patrons days after a missed release.
