Dev Update! 6/24/24

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!

After slinging out more than six decaf lattes for the biddies, I put all my attention into the oat milk latte Mr. Cryptid ordered. It wasn’t what I’d envisioned cryptids ordering but to each their own, right? Years of barista-ing came to me at that moment, allowing me to steam the tricky milk with ease. Going low then high then low again, I topped the latte with perfect peacock feather art. I needed to take a picture of these to add to my collection -

 Before I could blink, Jessica snatched the latte off of the counter. “Wow,” she mused at my art. “Thanks, bestie. More than happy to take this out.”

 In one swish of her hips, Jessica walked my perfect latte over to the Jersey Devil. “Made this just for you,” she cooed.

Actually, from where I stood, I saw the cryptid better resembled Bigfoot. His enormous frame easily reached our rafters with the top of his head.

At Jessica’s words I saw a smile flash from behind Bigfoot’s long, soggy curtain of shoulder-length hair. All this made me want to put the steam wand in my mouth and pull the trigger.
