Hey hey, folks! Hope all's well with you this week!

First, a little self-promotion to get out of the way. Yesterday, I put out a small demo build of Chapter 10, which features the first two scenes. It's relatively brief (140+ images), and there's no ero content to speak of. But, if you're interested in getting a glimpse ahead, and have some extra scratch burning a hole in your pocket, give it a look!

Next up - the results of the poll to choose Madison's outfit for Chapter 10. Her little black dress ran away with the win, with almost 70% of the vote. Totally crushed the competition! Congrats to Team LBD. To the folks who wanted mom jeans and yoga pants, worry not. Your time will come!

Now, moving along to Chapter 10's progress.. As you can discern from the presence of the demo build, things are chugging right along. I'm working on the third scene of the update now, with the hopes of having a new demo out by week's end. With that third scene completed, the first half of the update will be finished, and I'll be moving into Viola, Mason, and Gabby's scenes -- y'know, the stuff you're really here for. >_> As I've said before, that stuff will be a little more of a pain in the butt than the early scenes, but I think I've got a good roadmap, to help me avoid duplicating work. Now I just have to follow it, and not fall to the temptation of making more work for myself.

I'm still trying to get this chapter out in August, owing to the fact that it'll be shorter than normal. But, my progress over the course of July will be crucial. So, wish me luck!

Finally, a big-big thanks to everyone who bought my buddy's book, after I linked to it last week. They were ecstatic to see sales coming in, and now I think I can confidently add 'needle-mover' to my business card.

.. if I had a business card.

I'll leave you with that until next time! But, as always -- take care of yourselves, and thank you for your support!

Hey, folks! Hope all's well with you and yours this week! I'm sweating my butt off here in the Midwest, and recovering from some nasty bug bites, but otherwise I've got no complaints.

A little self-promo here at the top: I've launched a poll to choose Madison's outfit for next chapter, and over the weekend I posted a new image set for Viola, since we hadn't seen her in a hot minute. If you're a $5 supporter, go cast your vote for Madison's new look. Otherwise, go enjoy the Viola eye candy!

Moving onto general news, there's really not much to report. I'm just pushing ahead with the rendering, and doing my best to punch up the script a bit as I go. This one may need a good once-over, to check for continuity kerfuffles. But, the first two scenes are in the bag, and I'm working on the third one. Trying to get through it without too much dilly-dallying, so I can get to the stuff that's a little sexier in the second half of the update. But, you folks know how I like my long, rambling dialogue scenes. Still, the goal remains to get the update out in August. As always, I'll keep you abreast of my progress.

Turning to something a little different, I'm going to do a little promo for my IRL bestie, who recently completed their first smutty novel: The Punch Card. I'm super proud of my pal Jo for finally getting their work out there, after years of talking about it. The filthy little gremlin wrote a really darling, penetration-filled romance here. All the fun tropes are on display -- size difference, enemies to lovers, grumpy X sunshine, and a little aggressive nose-to-pelvis action. >_>The story follows Kaye, a burnt-out barista who comes into possession of a pilfered punch card which guarantees the holder eight free gym sessions. Looking to shake up her normal routine, Kaye finds exactly what she's looking for in Leo, an enormous gym rat with the heart of a golden retriever. 

It's cute, it's sexy, and it's only $2.99 -- or free on Kindle Unlimited. Plus, I did the cover art. So, go give it a read, and if you dig it, drop a review on Amazon! Gotta fight that algorithm!

Being without anything more interesting to say today, I'll leave you with a little preview of The Punch Card. As always, take care of yourselves, stay hydrated, and thank you for your support!
