Farewell And Thanks For Reading

I have decided, after much internal debate, to shut down and clear out my blogs. This is a decision I make with some regret, but which I feel has become necessary for me as a step to move forward.

I started this blog in 2016 with the intention of making this a big hub for my writing, and the desire to have built up hundreds of shorts, series episodes, and some novellas by now. In the ten years since, all I’ve managed to post was a handful of old content from years prior that mostly hasn't aged well in quality, new content that was half-baked in concept and quarter-assed in execution, lore articles for doomed projects, and a bunch of blundering attempts to deal with a mid-life crisis by way of metafictional writing therapy that has been going on far longer than it should.

Despite making an official “retirement” announcement of this penname in 2024, even writing a “Final Story” to reinforce that closure, I found myself still haunted by the things I left behind. I kept coming back here to post more self-indulgent metafiction, while completely failing to launch a new penname like I planned.

Now it’s 2026, and my mid-life writer’s crisis has metastasized into a complete creative paralysis. I can’t move forward. I can’t go back. And so, I am doing this as something of a desperation attack, one final ritual to attempt to wrench myself free of this mental tar pit I’ve mired myself in.

Although I have extremely few readers, I can see by the metrics, and the once-in-a-dozen-blue-moons comments, that there are some people very occasionally checking this place out. I thank you all for reading and I apologize if this removes some stories you’ve enjoyed, or maybe bookmarked and haven’t gotten to yet.

Despite my dour feelings over all this, there are a few stories on here that I do think are worth preserving. Depending on how I feel about it, I might repost them at some point, or I might just put together a dirt-cheap ebook collection as a companion piece to my web novel.

Either way, I hope those who did check this place out found some worthy entertainment. Maybe, if I ever do manage to start creating again, my future work will entertain you once more. Till then, take care of yourselves.
