Alright! Time to get next month's story poll rolling! There will also be another poll up within a couple of days regarding Stripper With a System and who Rylia summons first there. I want to get that sorted out so that I can poke at the story a bit. For now, though, the main monthly pool is afoot! My Hero Automata ha...

Whew! Didn't quite make it on the 8th like usual, but I got close! In this case that was entirely the result of how long it had been since I worked on the fic, as well as some adjustments I decided to make. I needed to do a lot of double checking to make sure I was remembering bits and pieces right for the first part...

Right! First of the month means the first release of the month! Specifically, 5,800ish words of Halfway Broken!
In this release the crew returns to the Grand Line. One general note about that? How I'm intending to run the 'timeskip' years is a combination of four things. First, which we've already seen with the previous...
2025-11-02 01:52:45 +0000 UTC View PostAlright, everyone, polling finished at midnight last night (well, 11:59pm, technically). I just did the vote weighing math, so let's check the results:
----------------
My Hero Automata: 112 + 50% Boost = 168
A Very Confused Pokémon Adventure: 134 + 20% Boost = 160.8
Harry Potter: Pan...

This is just a final reminder that the November Story Poll ends at 11:59 tonight! Make sure you get your votes in before then! This was such a short voting period, compared to normal months, that I don't want anyone to miss out! Dou...

Alright! Bit late in the evening for me to get this out. On the other hand, the release is also closer to 16,000 words than 15,000, so I imagine no one will mind much that the editing took a bit longer :-). Contained within are some more politics, reactions from the Jedi side to a f ew things, a bit of a side adventure, a lem...

... I'm very tempted to have a comedic moment with the posted meme at some point in A Very Confused Pokemon Adventure. That said, this post is actually just to remind you to vote in November's Story Poll. I don't usually do reminder...

Whew! Bit close on this one! Doing the first release of Stripper with a System nearly made me late with this release! As a reminder, There is Currently a Poll Ongoing regarding Eridium Dreams and Stripper wit...

2025-10-13 23:47:31 +0000 UTC View PostAlright folks! This is why I haven't put up the monthly poll yet. This was close to the state I wanted it to be in for a first release, and there's at least a chance (depending on if you guys, gals and others like it) that it may replace Eridium Dreams. As you might guess from that, it's a Mass Effect fic like Eridium Dreams ...
2025-10-11 11:26:24 +0000 UTC View PostUpdate - Realized while doing author's notes that there were two chapters 27s. Should be fixed now.
Whew! Cut this one a bit close. Though, in part, that's because I've also been extending and polishing that Mass Effect concept I mentioned a bit. Anyway, fair warning the editing on this batch ...

Alright! Time for the first release of the month! We've gone some relatively low-key happenings in the East Blue, including another lemon featuring Luffy X Robin X Nami, as well as just a few hints about the direction things are headed. A solid 5,600 words, so roughly typical for a first of the month release :-). The images, ...

Alright folks, this one is a bit shorter than it should have been. Why? Because for some reason the whole thing fought me like an angry hippopotamus that devoured it's body weight from a poacher's cocaine stash. I'm seriously not sure I've ever had one of my story arcs fight me as much as this one did, to the point t...

On the subject of boosts, though, I've decided to cut back the increases i...

*Edit* Bit of an oops, I mis-counted the chapters somehow. It's been fixed now.
Alright! Time for the new release of 'Why Was There No Truck?!'. I'm pleased, if still a little surprised, to see how many people like this crazy Amalgam-verse! This time, we see the opening bits for th...
Alright! First of the month, means first fic release of the month! Chapters 80 & 81 of Halfway Broken bring just shy of another 5,500 words to the fic, and push certain things forward. Both on the relationship front with Robin, and on showing off what the next arc is going to be. Said arc isn't going to be a terr...

Whew! Wasn't entirely sure I was going to get this posted tonight. The editing pass seemed to want to drag on much longer than usual! Thankfully, I made it through, though I'll probably hold off on the public chapters until tomorrow.
Anyway, this set of chapters got pretty close to hitting 16,000 words, and I'm fairly ...

Whew! Caught up after the somewhat later Pokemon Adventure release! It did help that this month's Halfway Broken was split more evenly between the release on the first and this one, each of them being roughly 8,300 and 8,500 words respectively. That actually brings the total between them up well above the normal 15k target, b...

Whew! Finally got this done! Sorry again about it being later than usual, folks. I needed to do some brain storming as I'd expected them to spend longer in Viridian and my outline for Pewter was basically just 'Train for the Gym.' Which would have been totally okay, if it was only 5,000 words or so. But when it turned out tha...

Oh, dear sweat glorious pancakes, am I seriously glad you guys and gals chose the option to have the Strawhats watch the events of Marineford.

As mentioned in the Poll Results post, this is a follow-up poll for A Very Confused Pokemon Adventure that will only run through midnight on the 1st. Before anything else, a quick reminder of where we left off with the story last time, in order to highlight the reason for the poll:
