Progress report
Hey guys. I was hoping to be able to report that we're on target for a release by Monday 28th, but I'm still solving problems with the writing. 馃槶
Where it's at
Right now our heroine does the following things in the next episode:
Has a "morning after" scene where hostel guests/staff are curious about her loud first date with her boss
Has a "tradecraft" scene where she meets her handler in a cool location, and gets a piece of mission equipment
Returns to the Hard Cock Cafe to carry out a mission tasking, while also carrying out her work as a topless barmaid
Has a new sex scene
What's the problem?
I played through it again today and frankly it's just not that sexy. 鈽癸笍 I'm not happy with it, especially as a follow up to the previous episode. Frankly...it's kind of boring.
My plan to fix this is to bring forward a set-piece sex scene I'd planned for a future episode, and feature it in this one. That will inject some serious new fap material into this episode, and also has the advantage of moving the overall plot along a bit quicker.
But I'm not confident I can get it written and working with functioning artwork in 8 days, so I have to release this disappointing report because I always want to be honest and transparent, even when I suck. 馃槶
Accountability
I've kept this description vague so as to avoid episode spoilers, but if anybody has a specific question you can message me on Discord (where I am Crushstation#8544 ).
Apology
I'm sorry to have to report this, guys. I hate disappointing everybody, and it's humiliating to push back deadlines that I know many people feel are much too far apart anyway. 鈽癸笍 I wish I could write faster and better. All I can promise is that I'm working on it all the time and I really care about maintaining the quality and sexiness of the story.
Okay, I'm going to get started on integrating the new scene tomorrow and I'll report on the 27th how it's going.

Hang in there Crush. You got this!
yeah when you need Input we can help :) and dont rush to fast. We can wait. :)
Totally understand, but if you ever need help with writing, proof-reading, etc just reach out. You don't have to suffer alone.
I write, erase, rewrite Erase again, and then A poppy blooms. Not quite sure what this haiku means, but it is probably appropriate. :-)

I never though you'd be able to come up with the next update in such a short time anyway. Not if you have to start writing it from scratch.
More than happy to wait. Thanks for the transparency as usual <3
I think that you can still make this episode more interesting) Good luck with this and keep up your great work!
NP man I think it is better to take your time and release something you can stand behind happily than rush out a release. And i think we all appreciate the transparency.
In order to write "faster and better" you gotta practice first! Keep working on it, keep trying new ways to write the scenes and you will find the perfect workflow. I'm always looking forward to the next update and if I could I would pledge more. Your idea and the execution so far have been amazing!
Hey, don't beat yourself up about it - it's not helpful. Unless you enjoy that sort of thing =) Your instincts are proven and good so if the update is not hitting the mark you already know what to do. Suggestion: try aiming for 80% of your target and you are sure to make a lot of people happy. The most important thing is to let people know what's going on and keep that communication, which you are doing, which is greta!
Try not to be too hard on yourself. Being human means being imperfect.
