Publication Delays

I decided I wanted to say a word about why there have been such long delays between chapters lately in my story. On the other hand, I didn't really want to put this into an Author's Note in the story itself. At the same time, I'm not going to reveal too much.

About eight months ago, a combination of a couple of events made my life considerably more hectic and severely cut into the amount of time I could devote to writing. One event, involving work, was good, but definitely has required more time and, more importantly, more effort - tending to leave me more mentally tired during my spare time. Mind, I'm not complaining (in fact, I'm reasonably happy about it), I'm just explaining. The other event, something personal, was ... not good. And has required even more of my time and effort.

But the real problem as I see it - so far as my writing is concerned - was that I needed to start taking prescription antidepressants. Again, I'm not really complaining. Nor am I embarrassed about it. They've helped a lot. However - we're all adults here, right? - they've had a negative effect on my libido. Not precisely a huge effect. My wife and I are still doing just fine in that department, thank you. But enough of an effect to be noticeable, to impact/reduce my fantasies, and to lower my general level of desire outside of the bedroom proper.

And as you might imagine, that definitely makes it more difficult to concentrate on writing erotica. Sigh.

Introduction

Hello. H.Saotome here. I've set up this blog to have a place to keep people informed of what's going on with my writing, to provide an anonymous place where people can comment and ask questions outside of reviews, and to give me a place to respond to reviews without adding reviews myself. For that matter, people reading my stories on asstr don't have a place to see reviews.

I've also been working today on chapter 24 of Moxibustion Violation. I hope to get a good chunk of the chapter written, although I doubt that I'll get it completed. But if I can get close, maybe people won't have to wait too much longer for the chapter.
