March 2023 Updates

Hello, my generous supporters. Welcome back for another month. I have so much to share with you, including some improvements to my Patreon page.

Patreon payments and benefits have been tweaked slightly. Supporters are now charged by subscription billing, which means you will be charged on the same day you joined, each month. If you have been charged on the first of the month before, then you will continue to be charged on the first. This will mean that you may miss out on some benefits, such as polls, during the first month, but they will be available normally every month that follows. Additionally, the benefits for the $7 “Big Patreon” tier, have been increased to include an option to commission a chapter of the Edits CYOA. Some of the language for the other tiers has been simplified and clarified. Please do give them a look if you are interested in some of the benefits available.

I am gradually getting caught up on writing. Already, I have completed all the chapters of Taller, the first of which was published last month. The rest will be published this month. It took some time to finish, but you will see it all soon. The next part of My Best Friend the Witch is over half done now and should be ready this month. Babysitter Girlfriend, the poll winner from last month, has been started as well and should be ready either by the end of this month or the start of next month. Besides those stories, I have another commission in progress.

Now, check out the list of what I plan to write and publish soon, as well as the winner of the Next Story Idea Poll for March:

1. Taller - (Growth) A girl has been cursed to grow taller. Having just passed seven feet tall, she is desperate to break the curse, but will she find out who has cursed her? And, can she reverse her growth?
2. My Best Friend The Witch: Dancer (TG, AP, Mental Changes) What if your best friend was a witch with a tendency for magcial torture? Read another part of a short series of misadventures with Esme as told from her best friend Jaime’s perspective.
3. Babysitter Girlfriend - (Male AR to baby, diapers) A teen boy wants to date a cute teen girl. Unfortunately, her parents forbid her from dating and keep a close eye on where she goes. However, some dark forces can transform the boy into a baby, so she can pretend to babysit him. (This one has gotten much darker as I plotted it out. In fact, it might end up as one of my darkest stories when it is done. I think you will enjoy it.)
4. Fountain of Youth Waterpark - (AR, AP, Uneven) - This Month’s Poll Winner - What if the fountain of youth were a waterpark, a secret place where people go to change themselves for a vacation? The slides will make you younger, while the stairs will make you older. The other attractions have different unusual effects. What will become of a pair of families when they unwittingly enter this magic waterpark?
5. Edits - (Choose Your Own TF) A phone app can edit reality. More chapters soon.
6. Mary Christmas 2 (The Ending) - Christmas never has to end but this story does. This one could qualify as my first serious extended story. After all the years since starting it, it is finally time to finish the tale. I am committed to realizing the vision I had for it so long ago.
7. Two (Alternate Endings) - (TG, AR) Expect to see one of these eventually:
   - Equal - The brothers divide the years equally, leaving them 6.
   - Success - Greyson somehow ends up back at 21 and Ethan stays 12.

The Next Story Idea Poll for April will be posted around March 18th. Anyone paying $3 or more can vote in the polls, and, if you have paid at least $5, you can add an idea to the next poll. Message me here or send an email to me at lostandwhatever@gmail.com before the 18th.

As always, if you have any other questions or comments to make, contact me as mentioned above.

Thank you all!
