Personal Stuff and Upcoming Release

So there's something I've been holding off from discussing for the last few months while I kind of work through things on my own and kind of get my head sorted out about it. But, I've been forthcoming about my life in the past, moreso than most creators, and given how this touches on the development of Harem Collector I think it's probably important to say.

As of last November, Nekochan and I have separated and in a few months we will be formally divorced. This comes as a shock I'm sure, but these things happen. There is no one person or factor guilty in this situation- our relationship was under a tremendous amount of strain, from COVID, our respective mental health issues, loss, money, and relationships unravel for far less than what we've both endured these past few years. So, please, don't go around badmouthing Neko or looking her up to bother her about this.

I cannot stress this enough: Do not go chasing after Nekochan to discuss our relationship ending in any shape, way or form, positively or negatively. She does not want to talk to you. I have it right from her own mouth that she has no interest in speaking with anyone she knows through her affiliation with BKG that she hasn't already contacted.

As for how I'm doing? Judge for yourself. I managed to turn a corner in my mental health treatment, and I went from recovering from suicidality and barely being able to work for well over a year, to doing three HC releases since the separation began, starting on my writing career, becoming more active with the community while picking fewer fights and blowing my top less. I am actually doing pretty great.

Part of the reason why I'm announcing this now is because August is going to be challenging for me. I'm moving into my own apartment and inhabiting my own space for the first time in my adult life. Moving is a lot of work, and it's made more complicated by the fact that I actually have to move twice this month, first into a storage locker while I couch surf for a week then into my new home. So, the update I promised would come in early August isn't coming until at least September and I thought you all should know why.

And that's basically it. Again, do not attempt to reach out to Nekochan, she does not want to hear from you, and I do not want anyone to make trouble for her.

Thank you for your understanding and support.
