Life Update & Apologies

[SSobotkaJr]

Greetings all...

Life is getting back on a more even keel, so to speak. My day-job is reaching a more stable setting (meaning I'm getting hours needed to deal with maintaining my rent and food needs), but it isn't back to where I can feel "comfortable". Hoping that may change.

Because of this, my writing has fallen far off to the wayside. Due to the stress of just existing, I haven't touched any of my stories that people have been asking for continuations/new chapters for. For that I will apologize.

However I will state that unless the stress in my life lessens, I cannot guarantee ANY new fiction as of late, much less responses to a lot of the comments left on my stories. Believe me, I WANT to see the old stories finished to a satisfying end and have new stories come out so they can get written and posted.

I know it's been nearly 2 years in the delay.

I have read your comments (both good and negative).

I WILL make an effort, but as to when results will come...?

All I can ask is for everyone's continued patience, and just say thanks to everyone who voted and has read my work.


Best Wishes to all -- SRS

Real life happens and as hard as it is for the readership to believe, it takes precedence over writing erotica.

You know just as hall of fame athletes are generally blessed with good heath that keeps them playing full seasons to put up those HOF numbers, people in any type of job/hobby need stability to keep producing.

I've been lucky to be in a very stable stretch of life where everything is pretty much as it should be and I've been able to consistently pursue my writing and posts like this make me appreciate that I have that.

There is another thread right now about an audio author RavenFox who apparently just suffered a tragedy and no one has heard from.

these things are reminders that things are fragile and as I previously stated life happens.

these posts also add to my annoyance when I see posts by readers and authors alike who go on and on about what is "owed" to them as far as authors not finishing series or continuing to entertain them(for free mind you)

Readers, this is a free site, you pay nothing, you are owed nothing. Appreciate what you get for free and leave it at that. Want a complete story, spend money on a book

For authors we are paid nothing, meaning when push comes to shove we owe nothing as well. I would never set out to leave something unfinished, but in the midst of real life upheaval I will be damned if the lit readership is going to be the first thing on my mind.

Thanks Lovecraft, I do appreciate the support and words of wisdom. ^_^

BTW, I absolutely LOVED the one story "Porn Shoot with My Sister". Very well done!
