GOOEYCANDY Newsletter & Updates! 🍎 [JULY2025 - Issue #13]: "Three Apples"

Welcome back for another Gooeycandy Newsletter, where you get up to date with ALL things gooeycandy! Let's dive right in!

Thanks so much for the love on the recent shop update! I spent a lot of this week packaging orders, and I'm already running low on some of the new pins! Definitely got more pin designs on the horizons but today I wanna show you something I'm SUPER excited about!

🎨 Art & Project Progress:

I've talked for a loooong time about wanted to make proper character bios for my original characters! That page on my website has been barren for YEARS! So finally I've finally started ROUGH drafting up what I'd like the page to include!

So it's obviously still very rough, but here's what I've got! I really want to make each character's page fun to visit, with lots of art and ways to interact! So on this first half I plan to have:

• The character's key art, with the ability to swap between their different outfits (casual, swimsuit, undies, nuuuuuuude) 😳

• A gallery of my favorite drawings featuring the character (this will entice me to make more complete pieces of them, hopefully!)

• Their dude class! For example, candy is "Sweet" "Passionate" "Himbo". Other classes include "Mysterious, "Geeky" "Rebel" "Sporty" etc.

• General info like their birthday, horoscope sign, height, job, and a quote from them!

• Their likes and dislikes!

• This one I'm iffy on, but their "inventory"? basically whats in their pockets usually. Let me know what you think/if I should replace it with something else.

• There are a few things I've thought of that aren't shown above are: a wordier "about me" description of the character, that goes into more depth. A questions submission where you can submit questions to the character, and ones I like will be answered by them and posted on their page, and finally a palette swatch of their key colors!

Then, when scrolling down, you'll enter the "NSFW Zone" (please help me think of a more fitting name...)

In here you'll find the more intimate details about them! Including:

• Their biggest turn ons!

• A "CockCam" (also trying to think of a better name for this) that loops a GIF of their boner in action + stats and facts about it!

• A placement chart for sexual behaviors (please give me more ideas, I only have dom/sub and top/bottom right now lol)

• And I'm still thinking of other things to include here, so like always feel free to chime in!

Finally at the bottom of the page, there will be links to other character's pages who this character has a bond with! So for Candy we have, Corey, his brother, Flex his best friend and... wait whos that!

Meet Honey! "Honey" Chris is Candy and Corey's dad. He's a very sweet man and supportive father, even if he can be a little ditzy from time to time. The apples don't fall far from the tree! He is a retired porn star, who left the business to (surprise surprise) open an orchard. This is his work-in-progress design. Honey is a character I've been wanting to design for a while, so I hope you like him! I'm also open to critique and questions if you have any!

By the way, PLEASE refrain from any inc*stuous comments about them. Yes, they are NSFW characters who are related, but I never intend to include them in those kinds of scenarios together, and I ask that you avoid doing so also. Thanks for understanding!

That's all on the bios for now! Definitely let me know if you have any ideas you'd want to see or other simple ways to make this page more interactive!

In Case You Missed It!

• Doug/Monster Prom Illustration: I've only made some minor progress on it since returning from Mexico, but I definitely will have an update by next newsletter!

  Be sure to use this time to suggest alts & ideas for the piece! Here's a link to the newsletter with the current progress!

• DK: Earlier this week I drew a Donkey Kong piece! Everyone seemed to really like it, but I posted it so quickly I'm starting to notice little things I dislike... so I may clean it up and maybe make it a sticker if there's interest? We'll see. Anyway here's the link to that piece!

• I also finally uploaded the full art of the Milo piece! I'll be sure to do the same with the other card arts soon!

• Hands On! Progress: I've finally continued working on finalizing the design document for Hands On!: Candy, the first installment of the new series of Hands On games! There's still a long way to go, but it's exciting to know I can dedicate time and energy to this project again!!

❔ Questions For You!

1. Now that pride month is wrapping up, how did you celebrate?

I'm single now and also forgot to properly celebrate (whoops!) I'll make up for it in October when my city does Pride part 2 lol.

This section focuses on my personal life & stories, so if that's not your cup of tea, feel free to skip this segment!

Keeping it short today! Basically been packing orders and trying to get back in the groove of meal prepping and working out! Seeing my family this week for the first time in a few months and REALLY excited about that!! Remember to not get so caught up in the day to day that you forget to make time for the people who matter to you! A phone call goes a long way!

⚽ Now to Gooey with Sports: Next seasons sign ups just opened! SPORTS AGAIN SOON!

🎥 NOW WATCHING: RPDR5, Below Deck,

SPOILERS AHEAD!! Don't read if not caught up!

RPDR Season 5: Just have the finale left but I know Jinx takes it (and deserves it!!). What an absolutely quotable and fun season of television. I understand now why people say it's the best.

Below Deck US Season 2: I started Below Deck as something to put in the background while I cut prints and cards...and wow it's addicting as hell. Makes me wanna work on a boat lowkey (even though the whole show is people complaining about how hard the job is lol). Also for the amount of jacked shirtless men on this show, I sure did fall in love with the eclectic snarky British chef. Chef Ben if you're reading this call me.

Feel free to hmu in the comments if you're also watching any of these!
