June 2025 Update! (Patreon)

Good evening everyone, C.H. Darkstrider here with the latest update! Like I promised, there would be an update coming this weekend and here it is, with me ready to discuss the things I teased about! But before we get into all of that, I have a topic or two to speak of that needs to be aired out, as I’ve been sitting on this for a while now. So, without any further ado, let’s dive in, because what’s coming next? Might just blow your minds!

Firstly, I just wanted to state that as far as the stories I’m doing right now, like my main three, I am slowly, yet surely making progress to be back on track! That means that either this month, or next, I will be on target to release more story chapters of each story, along with the story chapters promised from months ago, and hopefully, even resume the long-awaited Patron Fourth Story pick, because your votes and voices do matter!

This leads me into something some folks here have been asking me to do, namely, writing three to four additional chapters of their favorite story, most notably for either Project Prometheus, or for Tales of the Wastelander. Here’s the truth… I’m a creator who thrives on momentum, and that momentum comes from having multiple projects simmering at once. That’s the process that keeps the ideas flowing.

So, if folks want the surprises to keep coming, and for me to continually deliver the stories they love at the quality level they’ve become accustomed to, I need to do things this way. I know for everyone it is frustrating, as you all want more of the story you love most now, and you have to wait. Luckily, I am, if nothing else, consistent with my deliveries, if a little delayed at times, so the story chapters will keep on rolling out.

Next, I wanted to speak of the big announcement I have concerning these new projects I have in hand! I came to these ideas while brainstorming for new stories and not just rehashed tales with a new coat of paint. One thing I realized is that even epic tales must one day end, and when they do, I won’t be fading away. I’ll be blazing new paths, new ideas, and fresh tales, which will continue to excite everyone!

As I was thinking, I remembered some old ideas that I had written down and went digging through some old notebooks to find them. Once I did, I thought about them some more and as such, these ideas have found their way into my mind, and I have been writing them diligently! I already have at least two chapters written out, but not edited, of each story idea as they came to me and let me tell you, it’s fire! Raw, thrilling, and some of my best work yet!

What are these ideas? I’m glad some folks out there are wondering, as what they are is something truly unique and when they see the light of day, I’m certain that you will all enjoy what I have to offer! The ideas are as follows;

Venom’s KissA modern erotic thriller in the spirit of Assassin’s Creed, following the sensual and deadly legacy of the Vishakanya—an ancient order of assassins.

Society of Dark DesiresA contemporary erotic tale that explores the hunger beneath civility—needs, cravings, and the desires we’re told to deny.

Sins of the Sacred VeilA gothic supernatural journey where repression gives way to forbidden awakening. Erotic horror meets spiritual rebellion in a centuries-old convent.

Velvet SinA modern taboo tale of raw rediscovery. What happens when the grip of control breaks… and we finally find who we were always meant to be?

Now, a lot of people are probably wondering how in the hells do I have the time for all of this? What exactly happened for me to come up with, plan and surge forward at such a level of creativity to where I was able to not only manage to catch up, but also get this stuff done and knock it out?

Well, let’s just say that for the past year and a half, I’ve been in a bit of a funk concerning my creativity and my pace. While the ideas still come and I’ve been able to write them, they were coming much slower than I’d have liked. For the longest time, I’ve felt like Atlas, carrying the weight of the world on my shoulders, and that of everyone else as well.

But now? The fog is burning off, and the fire’s coming back…with me right there, wielding the flames like a pyromancer!! To quote that Australian rock band Airbourne;

‘I’m back in the game, kicking ass again,                                                                        No stopping me now, it’s like I’ve never been away,                                                         So you better watch out, ‘cause I’m back in the game!’

So, yeah, I’m plugged back into the creative grid of my mind, cranking out more ideas for more chapters and stories, and I am so back!!

The final thing I’m looking to talk about here is the stories I’m releasing. Some folks might be wondering: how soon will the public get to read these stories? The answer: they won’t. These new worlds, these raw and powerful tales… they’re yours, my patrons. Yours alone. With the exception of Velvet Sin, each and every new story and every chapter written of them, will be exclusive to my paying patrons and subscribers.

I know this might not go over so well with some of my fans out in the public domain, but if I’m going to take up writing full time, I can’t afford to give my stories away for free. So yeah, that means that every new story and every chapter related to these stories will only be available to those who really want to read them.

Well, that about wraps things up for this update! I hope that everyone out there is doing well, despite all the crazy that is going on in the world! Again, I wish to thank each and every one of my patrons and subscribers out here, as you have all been amazing in helping me get closer and closer to reaching my dream of writing full time! This is C.H. Darkstrider signing off, with a cold beer, the love of a good woman, and the fire of creation burning bright. Cheers, and thank you for being part of this journey.
