June stories/rewards will fall off at the end of July to make room for August rewards.

My first story was posted to Patreon on July 27, 2017, less than three months after the passing of my ex-wife Mary. My first patron signed up on July 29. My second patron who signed up on July 30 is still with me. Several others who sighed up in August have also been with me this entire time. For this, I am humbled and grateful. I am also appreciative for the many others who sighed up and stayed, or who checked me out if only for a few months, or maybe a year or two.

It has been six years as of this month. At the time, my UWFetish sales site was in the midst of reorganization, and was shut down. It did not reopen until January of 2018. So I ended up spending those first few months until the end of the year getting my Patreon site up and running.

UWFetish was back up and running at the start of 2018. But it closed permanently at the end of September of 2020. So Patreon has been my main focus ever since. Of the funds I receive monthly, the bulk of them come from Patreon.

A lot has happened in six years. I ended up moving back to Montana to be closer to mom. I got rid of most of my belongings, taking only what would fit in my Ford Explorer for the 680 mile drive. Eventually, I ended up getting rid of that vehicle and getting a used Nissan.

I’ve been in the hospital. Mom has been there a couple of times. And I had to transfer from one apartment to another. It’s been an adjustment from living in a city of tens of thousands to a town of hundreds. But I like the quiet life of a small town. And I’m grateful to be so much closer to mom.

I do not think any of this would have happened had I not received timely advice from an underwater producer. He thought my work was of such quality that I should get paid for it, if not all of it, then at least a significant percentage. The fact he thought that highly of my writing was very humbling for me. He and his wife held such esteem in my eyes that I acted upon their wisdom. So it was on this advice that I began putting up stories for sale while making other stories available to the general public. My utmost thanks to Marc and Tina, and to their kindness and wisdom.

That is what brings me here today, although I would be remiss if I did not thank God for intervening in a couple of medical scares. But mainly, it is all of you who have kept me here by reading and enjoying my stories. So I plan on adding some bonuses to each level next month as my way of saying thank you. And I want to upload a bonus story before the end of this month. So look for another post on the 27 of July, the anniversary of my first story post to Patreon.

Thank you all so very much for being my patrons.
