Hey guys, what's up? Long time no see, I think it's best for me to give you all an update in regards to my writing situation.
First of all: I feel much better. Thank you all for being so worried and for the kind messages, things have toned down now, there are still moments that can get overwhelming but I'm not into my head too much anymore. I started writing some stuff for fun and in private and some sfw things to get back into the flow and now I think I'm slowly going back on track.
Speaking of writing: I want to conclude or go back on some of my still ongoing projects. My priority, as of now, are Rex new life, Logan the himbo, the Rex/Mike Kinktober and the Scottish twins.
Apart from that I'm also working on making some One Shots and stories for something that maybe will come up in the future.
It's still rough going back to writing, especially trying to carve out a moment to actually sit down and be able to put something down on "paper"- mainly because my pc is getting more and more difficult to work with because of how old it is, but hopefully soon I'll be able to buy a new one to work with.
I planned the new Rex chapter and hopefully I'll be able to work out something for Logan before his birthday/annyversary and put myself to finish those few twins chapters left. The objectives in order are. finishing the twins - that are only a few more chapters -, then the kinktober - that has a set amount of chapters -, then Rex - since we are nearing the ending of Rex new life, which does not mean that Rex will be done, mind you - which will leave us with only Logan. Once this are done maybe I could start new projects, including a couple some friends asked me/suggested to me, and you know who you guys are XP
So yeah, a lot to do, but hopefully soon I'll be able to push something out in a more consistent way. Wish me luck.
Oh, and I also want to go back to Pictures worth, which will be first updated on my Bluesky and then on ao3. For other projects like All my bullies or The villain is a himbo, they will be done later. I'm sorry guys, but I need to put myself some priorities, otherwise we'll be here in a limbo forever, and as much as I love both this projects I made, I need to work on the things that in my head have a set end goal.
Thank you guys so much for bearing with me, keep your eyes out for any news, because if I get back on my feet enough a big one is coming that might change things up quiet a lot here, and please remember that I care about you, I love you all and that you are all great and I'm proud of each and every one of you. Thank you for being awesome, see ya guys <3 ^.^
My last update post was in April this year when the Covid pandemic started to become a real threat.
Unfortunately, I have also been infected with the virus and my body has been fighting it for weeks with the only result of ‘hanging in there’, but not much more.
It is a real nasty virus that is taking a huge toll on by body with my heart already almost giving up once. However, I have every full intend to beat this thing, but I have no illusion of the long road ahead of me, still.
I have also NO intention in abandoning UTCM! But, will there be an update this year? I honestely just don’t know.
I wish I could make promises, because the hiatus is already going on too long, however, I don’t want to make any promises I can’t keep, either.
My main focus is beating this virus first and then my recovery.
It might seem foolish for how much energy does it take to write, right? Well, trust me as I say that even typing this takes up a lot of energy at the moment.
Everything takes a lot of energy right now. It feels like my body is running on a low battery 24/7 and every intake of breath hurts.
I wanted to give my followers an update for I can understand it might seem I have abandonned this blog and writing. I know the frustration of reading (or starting to read) an unfinished chapter fic and suddenly realizing your beloved story will probably never be updated again. It is not something I want to ever do or ever wish to do. But with this second hiatus, that has been going on for months, I can understand that UTCM might appear to be one of those abandonned stories. I just wanted to rectivy this rumor.
For those of you who are also fighting this virus infection:
Don’t give up and I hope you will all get well soon!
For those of you who are still healthy and have not (yet) been invaded by this parasite:
Obey the rules of your country, for they were made for a reason. This virus is not a simple flu. Protect yourself. Protect your loved ones ♡
UPDATE AND UPCOMING PROJECTS (I'M NOT DEAD!) (LONG POST)
Hey, what's up? How's it going? I'm not dead, shocking, I know.
First of all, I want to say I'm sorry for the sudden month-long hiatus. It wasn't planned, it was just a hot month and I felt a little bit burned out, basically all the stories I tried to work on just turned out not to be good or didn't satisfy me, and since this was the case for also a couple more of the ones I actually ended up uploading I just felt frustrated with it and it all went downward from there. Also, when I tried to just ignore this feeling and force myself to simply work on them, I was either too tired or it was too hot for me to even think to stay in front of a screen.
A week ago or so, Irealized how long it was since I gave you some news about myself, and I wanted to gave you guys at least some explanation about why I went silent all of sudden after promising you all I was going away for just a week - and part of that was because the last day of my holidays they contacted me out of nowhere to tell me the next day I had to something and to a place I never been before and I was so pissed of at this, but let's not talk about this.
So, without further ado, first a little update on my personal life, then the schedule for my next upcoming projects.
LIFE UPDATE
I want to start this section by saying that I'm fine and, all in all, I had a pretty good summer, even tho I didn't exactly had a chance to relax as much as I wanted to, but that's all right.
What really matters are the next following months, which I want to talk to you about.
As I told you a couple of months ago, I have a sort of work, and September/October are the busiest months there, so I will be pretty busy with it. In addition to that, I also plan to apply to another job, more in line to what I actually like and what I want to do. Of course, if I'm taken then I will have even less free time, but it's a step towards what I actually want to be my job, so I have to prioritize that - beside, I still have to apply and I'm not even sure they will take me so, we'll see, lol .
I also have what can be called a study "problem". Back in July I actually got my degree after years of grueling work and stress and I was really happy. Problem is, for actually applying to what I want to be my full time job - beside writing lol - I need to get a second degree that is basically an extension of my first degree - the beauty of the Italian education and university system. I want to apply for it for this coming semester so I will also have this to worry about and work on beside my work(s).
As you can see, I have a pretty busy schedule for the next months, but in all of this I want to keep writing and bring you some good quality smut stories.
I just ask you to be patient with me and to understand that, after everything, I'm still just a guy who is trying his best and wants to bring a smile to your faces.
Thanks to all of you who subscribed, left kudos and in general were so awesome in what were some of the most intense and hard months of this last few years. I love you all <3
UPDATE SCHEDULE
So, let's talk about my stories, and what I'm planning to update next.
"The Crow and the Jock" last chapter: I have all the intentions to finally end Don and Tim story, you will just need to be a little bit more patient about it. I know how I want to develop it, what I need now is just to iron out a couple more details and work on it. Soon, the story will be done, I promise;
"Pictures worth a thousand words": this project, as you might know, was born from my post on Bluesky that I wanted to collect as a single story on ao3. It's a constantly developing collection of short hot stories, divided in different batches. As of now, there are 3 more chapters before the first batch is completely uploaded on ao3, after that is done, the collection will be temporarily stop until I have some more chapters set aside on Bluesky - ideally another 25 - and then I will post that as well. I want to take this opportunity to thank you all for kudoing and following this silly short collection so much that it become my second most viewed story and breaking some insane personal records, like getting more then 10 kudos in 24 hours not once but multiple times. I hope, when I start uploading the second batch, you will enjoy it as much;
NEW PROJECT: "My hero academia" Endhawks AU fanfiction: I have a couple of rules I like to follow for my writing, one of them was the fact that I wanted for my stories to be all original works - as for "why?", right now is not important, maybe one day I will explain it. This rule is being broken right now, because I'm working and planning to post a "My hero academia" fic. I get this is a bit different from my usual style - and also pretty out of nowhere lol - and don't worry if you don't want to follow it there is no problem, I promise you I'm will keep on posting mainly original stuff, it's just that I recently finished reading all of the series for the first time, and I have hot problematic dilf brainrot moments, lol. About the actual story: it will be a "Quirkless AU" with a "Nice/Good Parent Enji Todoroki" - because for how complex Endeavor character is, I don't think I could bring myself to write a story of an abuser without delving into it and it's not something I feel comfortable doing, sorry - and I'm planning for it to be in the same spirit as The crow and the jock, so a short multichapter, porn with plot fic. I already have basically the first two chapters ready and I'm currently working on the third one. I don't know how long it will be, it started as just me wanting to do Endhawks smut with bottom Enji, and it became me wanting to expand this AU and adding stuff to it. I will post it with a regular schedule once I'm completely done with it, so I don't know when I will actually upload it, but it's in the work, just so you know about it;
NEW PROJECT: October Monsterfucking Special Short Collection: a couple of days ago I had this flash and I started planning a short multichapter fic that will be mainly focused on monsterfucking. Because of its own nature, it's a story I'm planning on uploading during the month of October, culminating on the 31st with a sort of special within the special. This collection of short stories with a common theme will have 5 chapter and will upload every Friday starting October 3rd, so keep an eye out for it. I hope you will like it like you did with the last two Halloween themed stories, even if, for the first time, they will not have Rex as the protagonist;
The villain is a himbo, Manuel Backstory: I started working on the promised Manuel's backstory back during the middle of June, but, because of all the problems I already discussed, I never managed to put down something I was actually satisfied with, always second guessing myself and feeling like something was missing. It's a pretty long story and, since I asked and you wanted it, I also have to put smut scenes in it, something that I didn't plan during the first stages of the story, or at least not with the same capacity I feel it need to have to have you guys satisfied with. I have a couple of places where putting them actually make sense, but it's a pretty long work. It keeps being a story that is planned to be posted, so don't worry, it will come out, hopefully sooner then later;
"The family business" bonus chapter: I have been teasing you with this freaking chapter for months now, but I'm still far from being happy with it. I had an initial idea for how I wanted to make it, how it should look and what it should be about, but right now I'm not sure anymore it's the right way to do it. I want to add a final chapter, it would be glorious, I have so many ideas that you guys suggested to me that I want to use and that could work so well with it, but I'm not sure how I will do it, how I will make it work. Once I'm done with the stuff I know I want to make, I will start working on it seriously and, hopefully, manage to make an actually good last chapter, one last decent farewell for Brian and his family. Stay tuned for more;
"Rex new life" and all it's linked stories: so, this is something of a touchy subject I feel, because Rex new life is my most popular story, how most of you found out about me, and it's my first story for this account. It's also been almost a year since the last update on the mainline Rex story. Yeah, the Halloween special is the last time I touched this story in particular. Mind you: this does not mean I didn't write about Rex at all since then, I still did the Christmas CYOA Special - which I'm still so proud of, if you didn't already, go read it - and the dreaded Rex/Mike Kinktober, which is still far from being completed. And there is also When the cat's away, but honestly I'm starting to regret ever starting that story, but I don't want to talk about it. Rex has a special place in my heart, is the character and the story I care the most about, so I always want for it to be done properly. I have a plan for my next updates, which will be three Plot Chapters update one after the other all in the same week with a post on Tumblr linked to them. These chapters will be very important for Rex new life future, so I also need them to be able to give of the feeling I want them to have. I started working on them, but, once again, they just didn't feel right when I was writing them, so I put them on hold. I want to go back and start seriously working on them. If everything goes as I want to, I will be able to finish and post them before the second year anniversary, and if that's not the case at least before it becomes a year since the last update. Wish me luck, and I hope you can appreciate what I have in mind;
Logan the himbo and other Request driven stories: I want to start this section by saying that I'm sorry. I have all of your Request jotted down and I plan on writing them all, it's just that, again, I wasn't feeling too good, mentally and from a creative point o f view. Literally, I have written 5 different version of the next Logan the himbo request that I started working on I think at the end of May, and after all of this, still I wasn't satisfied with any of them. I want to continue this stories and for you all to enjoy them, but I will need to work on something else before I feel confident enough to go back to them. I hope you understand, and again I'm so sorry, thank you so much for being so patient with me, seriously you guys are all the best <3
*****
Welp, that's it, I think I said all I wanted to say. If you have any more questions or doubts or if there is anything that isn't clear please do not hesitate to ask me or contact me about it. As always, I remind you I also have a Bluesky and you can find me on Discord as "thatsmutaccount". I will love to chat ^.^
Thank you so much for everything, see you guys soon, take care, love you all <3
The Work in Progress page has been updated again! [x]
(For those of you who visit this blog on mobile with the tumblr app, the page cannot be accessed with the app, unfortunately, but I made a post that holds the same information).
If you use the tumblr app, you can acces the Work in Progress information here: [x]
There is a possibility that the Work In Progress information post cannot be accessed with the app right now. Someone flagged it and it was removed by tumblr. I remade it, but it still didn’t show.
It could be because I have to wait a bit before it to be active for a link or something, or perhaps because it was flagged before. I already contacted tumbrl support to hopefully resolve this.
If you get the notification that the post is no longer there, please use your phone browser to access either the page or the post.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Chapter 32 of TDAT will be posted this upcoming weekend!
Sorry for the delay!
I am not feeling well, due to side affects of medicine and it is incredibly hot outside and in my house. And all that was really affecting my writing mood.
And due to some computer issues, my written setup for this chapter was somehow not saved, which forces me to rewrite everything for this chapter :(
And I couldn’t put myself to do that this weekend in the current state I am in.
So my apologies, for I know I promised an update this weekend.
Chapter 32 will be posted on July 8.
Just wanted to give a heads up of a (highly likely) lack of update this week. I am packing up for a (once again highly likely) move and travel. It's a lot back-to-back and everyone wants to invite me and my husband for dinner while we're still in town. (The hope is we don't have to move, but I'm packing my stuff since he'll end up doing the major part of the nove solo if we do. With my things packed he can focus on just his things and the kitchen.)
So many things, so little time!
I'll try to get something done, but I can't make any promises. (Maybe I'll squeeze in a one-shot?) Thanks for understanding, I'll see all you lovely readers when I get back.
Sorry I haven't been able to post any updates or reblog anything fun. This week has been pretty crazy with work and getting ready for my international flight. I'll map out some chapter details during my 12 hrs in the air, so I'm ready to go as soon as I settle in!
