Writing Recap
March ended up going by a lot faster than I anticipated!
I ended up writing 10,970 words in March: the entirety of “Save and Seduce II” (5,616), and then the second half of “Good Judgement” (5,354 of 10,201 words). That’s a roughly 1,000 words less than my February productivity, but it’s still an amount I’m really, really proud of.
With that said, I had really hoped to write even more this month. I wrote “Save and Seduce II” in a week’s time. Then it took me two more weeks to write the same amount of words for “Good Judgement.” And then I haven’t written anything at all in a week. Unfortunately, them’s the breaks: as long as this stays a semi-professional hobby, it’s going to have to fit into The Onion’s infamous “nights and weekends for the rest of your life” time slot. I needed time to recharge my creative batteries. (Also, I’ve become addicted to the Chinese historical drama Nirvana In Fire. And taxes! I had to do taxes!)

Azuras
The highly observant might have noticed two new, barely used tags of mine—“heroic Azuras” and “modern Azuras.” That’s right, lewdites: that harpy corruption commission I wrote a while back? Set in the same universe as the paladin-fucks-a-vampire story, though a few centuries before!
For months I have been drawing up plans, crafting an overarching setting for my original fantasy fiction. Azuras is that world. In the coming days, I plan to introduce more fiction set in Azuras—some of it heroic high fantasy, some of it of a more modern bent.
I’ll be honest: my endgame is writing lengthy women-loving-women and women-loving-monsters fantasy/romance novels, with noble paladins and clever dragons and scorned naga and Amazonian orcs all fighting for The Good in a world that’s coming apart. In the meantime, I’ve got a few ideas about how to get to that endgame: re-opening commissions, building a standalone website, starting a Patreon.
This is really important to me:
In a lot of respects, “Good Judgement” was the pilot episode of the setting; I appreciate that Depot Hime let me use their story in my setting. I want to write more stories like “Good Judgement.” I want a setting where stories like “Good Judgement” can exist. And even though “Good Judgement” has received the least amount of notes of any of my stories so far, it’s also received a disproportionate amount of reblogs, and it’s the only story of mine that has solicited so many personal messages from readers who really, really liked what they read. This leads me to think that there are people out there who want these kinds of stories just as much as I do.
(And if anyone asks, Nirvana In Fire is totally research!)

On The Docket
But before I can talk about my own original fiction, I still have some commissions to finish! And lest you lewdites then I’m going soft on you all, there’s plenty of corruption and transformation to go around!
- @lana-the-salty-banana: epic, serial story about a cute catgirl who summons two demonesses; hilarity ensues
- @sapphomet: 2.5-3k story about a put-upon waitress that becomes a domineering succubus
- @corruptionseduction: 2.5-3k story about two tabletop RPG players who are sucked into their game and corrupted into sexy monster girls
- @sabrithebonclaw: 4k ‘Sabrith and Tay’ corruption/TF story
Hopefully those little blurbs whet your appetite for what’s to come!
