Hello, everyone!

It is month 7 of 12, oh God.

I hope everyone's 2025 has been going great. Now that we are in the second half of the year, I am reflecting on my goals and adjusting my priorities.

Let us acrobatically spin into it!

We shall have a Prompt Poll this month! Ready your degenerate ideas!

This one shall be an OC-only Prompt Poll. I haven't decided yet if I'll lift the ban on the BWC x Asian Bleached tag/theme. Part of me considered making it a Prompt Poll focused on Ebony babes, but I'm also not sure on that.

Feel free to argue ferociously in the comments below if you have thoughts either way.

I'll make the official announcement sometime after wrapping up the Momo Is Built For It story.

We had a poll a long time ago about where most of you first discovered me. Back then, the vast majority had answered HF.

I was curious to see if things remained the same since this page has grown quite a lot since then (I am very thankful for everyone's support). As it turns out, things DID change somewhat significantly.

About 61% of you guys first discovered me on HF, and around 36% on AO3. That's a BIG swing. I don't recall the exact numbers, but it was more than 80% HF last time. I believe it is the result of more people finding me on AO3, so it is not as if HF got worse.

Earlier this year, I updated the tags of all my stories on AO3 (and HF). It may have to do with that. Either way, even though not everyone answers these polls, I think they are representative of the full 'demographic', so thank you all for your votes and support.

Also, shout out to the one individual who found me on Twitter and the two who found me on Subscribestar itself.

I like running a character popularity poll every six months to see who everyone's favorites are from the ongoing Subscribestar series. This poll doesn't influence my writing or anything like that - for better or worse, I am shamelessly unapologetic in my vision for each story. I just think it's an entertaining curiosity check.

Before we have this poll though, I want to finish the Momo Is Built For It story. So, expect it sometime after that gets released.

I've talked about this a few times before, but it'll finally happen this month: My commissions queue is about to wrap up.

I spent a while thinking about whether I'd open up again right away. I like writing commissions and I hate leaving commissioned series hanging. However, the list of ongoing exclusive series grows mightier by the day, be it with the long series that have existed for a while, or with the shorter two-parters from recent times. And, of course, there are also the regular Prompt Polls, which I have no desire in halting (and I know you guys like them too).

Thus, I've decided that I shall not be reopening my queue, for an undetermined period of time. I'm shifting my full focus to slaying as many exclusive series as I can this year, as I announced was my goal at the end of 2024.

I still have one more commission to get out. After that, I'm going full power on brutally murdering as many of the gongoing series as possible. My hope is that I can really churn these out by applying total focus on them, thus wrapping up a ton of them and avoiding long hiatuses despite the large numbers of series.

For reference, here are all the current ongoing series:

I think these are all of them. Did I forget any? Please note that I am referring solely to exclusive series; In other words, Prompt Poll winners, which are not commissions.

As you can see, there are quite a few of them because I just can't help but like developing story ideas. I am still thinking of the best way to organize the order in which I 'slay' these.

Part of me considered simply doing one chapter each until we get some finishes, but maybe it'd be better to pick a few and go all-out on them, and then pick others? This may be preferred by the majority through democratic vote (the return of Story Continuation Polls), but I don't like the idea that the stories preferred by less people suffer in recluse.

Or, maybe, I should prioritize the ones closest to completion? Or the ones that are 'shorter series' or 'two-parters (that sometimes turn into three-parters)'?

I may or may not do a series gauge poll to see which ones people are more interested in. Of course, we all know which one is in 1st place, but 2nd place and on might be interesting to find out.

Also, rest assured, there is zero chance of any of these series being cancelled, even if there is a long hiatus (which I want to avoid). After surviving through a gory, bloody Prompt Poll, it'd be unacceptable for a prompt to not see its story conclude. Even if a story has minimal interest, I shall concldue it for my own peace of mind.

By all means, do give me your thoughts below. I am still in the thinking phase. I may or may not update the Workflow Central post once I make a decision, rearranging the intended sequence of stories. My condolences if that affects the story you were waiting for (no, don't worry, I won't delay The Black King Piece because I know murder awaits me if I do).

An expected question: Any estimate for when you might reopen your commissions queue?

Current answer: None right now. I actually don't like keeping comms closed because I want people to be able to continue their commissioned series, but I shall ruthlessly focus on these exclusive series until I've significantly trimmed down their numbers. That said, I will definitely reopen eventually. When I do reopen, I'll likely raise my rates, so keep that in mind.

On that note, I MIGHT update the images on this Subscribestar over the next few days to mark the beginning of this new arc, or era, or whatever else it is funnier to call.

With this, July's Newsletter is concluded! Thank you for reading. As a gift, enjoy this final meme.

Momo Is Built For It is progressing very rapidly. I hope to have the next draft early this week. I wanted to have it this weekend, but I might have been a tad too optimistic. We shall see. I also have one final commission that is chunky and very deep in the works.

I am giving it my all. July shall be a great a month for smut - and a bad month for ongoing exclusive series that just want to live (y'know, hopefully. Blame future me otherwise, I'm innocent).

As always, thank you all for your continued support! Have a great July.
