An Update

I could use some Help

Exactly one year ago, I decided to walk away.

I found myself alone with the quiet of my own thoughts for the first time in decades.

It was in these caverns of grief where my poetry became a guiding light. Trapdoor after trapdoor would open and I would fall deeper.

It has been relentless. I have trembled, cried, laughed, and raged.

It’s also been a time of synchronicity and poetry.

At the beginning of February of this year, something clicked. I decided to go all in on my art. A stupid decision on paper, but from the inside of my lived experience, it was the only thing that made sense to me.

I quickly learned this was not a channel I could just “turn off.”

I look back at my body of work over the past months and I can hardly believe what I read.

I very much want to continue, but this work requires tremendous energy, more than I let myself admit.

I need financial support right now. I am asking for your Help.

I am not going to paywall my work yet since my Substack is still in the discovery phase. I would like to continue this cadence of weekly erotic pieces, but to do so I need support.

I also want your support. It would mean the world to me to continue creating here.

Here’s a link to my Ko-fi. If you have been moved by my words, I would very much appreciate some help right now as I move through this difficult season.

Please share this too!

Thank you.

With much love,

-Ryan
