July '25 recap, August '25 plans
Added 2025-08-01 13:00:24 +0000 UTCHi all!
Here's what I posted in July:
The Thaumaturge, Chapter 15 (one of the Reader poll selections)
Speedrunner 0.3 (the Level Zero/Tutorial finale!)
A Tailored Release (a stand-alone story and the other Reader poll selection)
The Masseuse, Chapters 21-23, and 24A, B, and C
A poll about the upcoming Dungeon Mistress sequel (poll still open; go vote if you haven't!)
Speedrunner 0.99 (a "bridge episode" to Level One, including some more character choices to vote on!)
~30k words of new writing this month across a lot of different posts, plus another 20k remastered words of The Masseuse! Super excited to have that story almost reposted in its entirety. :)
The one thing that didn't happen: I'd hoped to get A Hospital Stay done, and it just isn't. I made some good progress but it's not quite where I'd like it to be.
So I'm letting myself ruminate on it a little while longer. It should get released in August at some point; especially since it's the finale, I want it to do the story justice.
And speaking of August, I've admittedly got a bit of an ambitious plan for next month. First, here's the slate of Monday releases:
The Thaumaturge, Chapter 16 and accompanying poll
The next full Speedrunner chapter
The Therapist, Part 10
A Dungeon Mistress story (the reader poll-winner)
On top of those, I've got a few additional bonus posts tentatively planned to go up throughout the month. These are not necessarily guaranteed in terms of timing -- I'm going to slot them in as they're ready:
The last Masseuse ending!
A Hospital Stay, Part 8 (carrying this over from last month)
A bonus stand-alone story (like I mentioned, I'm working to have some shorter stand-alone pieces that can serve as reddit posts and the like, to help draw in more subscribers, and I've got one already written that'll go live at some point in August)
Taken altogether this is a bit more than in a usual month, but I'm going to try to deliver!
I'm also entertaining the idea of writing something for the Literotica Summer Lovin' 2025 contest. I've got an idea for something that feels a little unusual and I think might work. If I do, I'll post it here first before submitting it in the contest.
I am mostly offline for some work travel for my day job in the middle of the month. I will have posts scheduled so you should still see content getting released as usual, but I may be a little slow to reply to comments and messages during that time.
Thank you all for the ongoing support, and the great engagement in the various polls over the last week, especially. It's been really fun to get your input. Excited for you all to see the direction it drives the stories!

Thanks! I do have some plans there but nothing specific to share yet. Appreciate the patience, they're characters I will revisit eventually for sure!
