Journal #17 - May 6, 2024
Posted 2 weeks agoGood evening everybody!
I'm writing this journal to update you on what's going on with my life. I've been busy with writing and realized that I'm going to need a week off of the usual uploads, as I'm trying to finish the Complete Edition of Speps and Screwdriver this week. We'll return to our weekly program on the 13th of May, next Monday. The following uploads will be affected by this temporary change:
Tea Time with Tewst
Radioaesthetica
Inheritance of the Lonely Mask
Beythastar Plays
Once again, we'll return to our usual schedule next Monday. Thank you, and have a good night!

Journal #15 - March 28, 2024
Posted a month agoHello everybody!
I've had a busy week, so I need to push back Ch. 31 of Radioaesthetica to Saturday. I also found out when I'm returning to my old store! April 15, so 15 days left at this new store. New Manager's already here, but she still needs guidance (which I never got...), so I'm helping out with that.
Also, I got the last of my recording setup arriving tomorrow, so I'll be starting the youtube content very soon! I hope to see you there!

Posted 3 months agoHello everybody! I'm currently working on tonight's issue of Tea Time with Tewst, but I wanted to make a quick announcement: Chapter 27 of Radioaesthetica will release on Fridays from now on, and I'll be uploading short stories as well. This is to both provide you with more content during this downtime, as well as to give myself ample time between TTwT and Radioaesthetica.

Journal #9 - December 14, 2023
Posted 5 months agoRecently, I switched to Microsoft Office for writing chapters, and it turns out the way Office saves is very misleading. I noticed that most, if not all, of the chapters written since the change are incomplete, even though they're fully written out in reality. I'm going through my gallery and checking all chapters written since the change, so that they're complete.
I'm not happy with this and will likely switch back to WPS Office.

Posted 5 months agoToday's Tea Time with Tewst will be uploaded after work today. It's done, but the computer wouldn't output video when I went to upload it, so I gotta troubleshoot that first. My guess is the gpu's 8-pin cabpe disconnected from the power supply; I was messing around with the power supply on Saturday and probably loosened it.

Journal #8 -November 24, 2023
Posted 6 months agoHey everybody, as you likely noticed, yesterday's chapter of Speps and Screwdriver has been delayed to today. I ended up being in charge of the Thanksgiving Dinner at the last moment and was caught off guard as a result.
In addition, I'd like to make a quick announcement for the profile as a whole: Both Speps and Screwdriver and The Loris Valley Incident will be completed by Chapter 20, and for the time being, I will not be replacing them with another story, be it a sequel or a new story altogether. Once Radioaesthetica is completed (final chapter is still undetermined, as we're barely about to begin Mission 3 out of 8), a new story will be announced and will have a Friday release.
In the meantime, I'm working on another, much larger project, and will need more time and resources in order to properly implement it. However, I am confident that this project will prove to be the best addition to this profile as a whole!
Tl:Dr S&S chapter will release later today, and another tomorrow. S&S and TLVI will end on chapter 20, new project in the works.

Posted 6 months agoTonight's chapter of The Loris Valley Incident is going to be delayed until tomorrow. Family's out of town, and I've been busy with upkeep all day. Chapter will release tomorrow, followed by the usual chapter of Tea Time with Tewst on Monday, and then the rest of the week will be releases of Speps and Screwdriver for the Veria Week event.

Journal #7 - November 15, 2023
Posted 6 months agoHello everybody, it's been a while! These updates haven't been as necessary to do since I started Tea Time with Tewst, as it helps keep readers updated on a regular basis. But I wanted to make sure my readers know that next week is Thanksgiving here in the US, so to celebrate, we're doing Veria Week, where all releasing chapters will be for Speps and Screwdriver, like how we did Spooky Radio Week last month for Radioaesthetica chapters.
As up-to-date readers will know, Screwdriver and Kendra are currently traveling to the world of Miradis in order to meet with Andre Korvik. Rather than make this a single chapter arc, I wanted to properly flesh out this story, and Veria Week will make this much easier, much like what was done with Mission Two: Dead Malls Have No Sales. In addition, Thanksgiving does fall on a Thursday, which is the day S&S releases anyway, making this more fitting.
That's all for now, and thanks for reading!

Journal #6 - October 6, 2023
Posted 7 months agoHey everybody! I'm going to be gradually making changes to the weekly roster, starting with Tea Time with Tewst. I'll be slowly changing submissions from docx to pdf, so that each document can be interactive and offer readers more material and a more complete experience. My original intention was for Tea Time with Tewst to be entirely video content, but this doesn't seem to be feasible with FurAffinity. However, an interactive pdf wil support video files, and so each section of TTwT will have its own video, so that readers can watch and feel more immersed in the storytelling.
Another benefit of interactive pdf's that I plan to make use of is an all encompassing encyclopedia, complete with descriptions and depictions of assets that can be used by other artists. This specific project has been in the back of my mind since 2017, and it looks like I may finally be able to start it soon!
Finally, I plan on creating a Discord server for the novel lineup, so that readers can chat and discuss the latest chapters and/or post fan art in an easily accessible location. This too, like the encyclopedia, does not have a start date for design and preparation. However, this will definitely be ready much sooner than the encyclopedia, so stay tuned for further updates!

P.S I really need to get myself a pfp soon...

Posted 8 months agoHello everybody!
Thanks to how well we're doing with the steady release of chapters, I'm able to open up a limited amount of commissions. For the time being, they'll be limited to short stories in the style of Radioaesthetica, Speps and Screwdriver, and The Loris Valley Incident in regard to how I write plot, dialogue, and character interactions. However, the actual content is up to you to decide, and there are currently no limits to how many characters can be included in the story. Keep in mind that more characters, however, will result in a messy plot.
Enjoy!

Posted 8 months agoAfter some consideration, I have decided to clean up legacy novels and revise them for modern reading. These stories, while not always canon, are still worth reading and will be available in my Patreon shop for $3 each. In addition, completed novels will be later repackaged with bonus content and also priced at $3, but this bonus content will also be available to patrons at no additional cost.
That is all the news for this journal entry, be on the lookout for Chapter 1 of The Loris Valley Incident tomorrow!

Journal #1 - September 1, 2023
Posted 8 months agoI'd like to preface this journal with a very simple fact: I know next to nothing about being a furry. It's all new to me, and I'm still learning, so please, bear with me.
Just before typing this journal entry, I uploaded three chapters: 2 for Speps and Screwdriver, and 1 for Radioaesthetica. My plan is to upload at least one chapter of each story every Friday, as close to midnight as I can get them, so you can start your Friday mornings with some new reading material. I'd like this to be a consistent pattern, and I'm open to suggestions or comments.
In regards to commissions, I'm going to keep them closed for now, until I can make a big enough chapter buffer that I can afford to stop for a few weeks. In the meantime, if you wish to show your support for one or more of the series, please check out my Patreon page, its link is posted in my profile page. It's $5/month and includes early access to the next week's chapters, starting next Friday. This means that non-patrons will receive Chapter 3 of Speps and Screwdriver + Chapter 2 of Radioaesthetica next Friday, whereas patrons will also receive Chapter 4 and Chapter 3, respectively. As the chapter buffer increase, I also plan on introducing more stories, such as a planned novel titled Mouse Garden.
That's all for tonight! It's good to be here and a pleasure to meet you all, and I hope we can be great friends!
