Poll Results - What Should I Work On Sep/Oct

Poll results are in. That looks a fairly emphatic victory for HoHH, at 72% to 28%.

However, as I mentioned yesterday in the update post, an odd thing happened after I posted the poll. It flipped a mental switch in my head that said "I must do as much as possible on the collection as I'll need to switch back to HoHH". Half the battle with dealing with my sometimes erratic productivity is to pull mental tricks on myself like this. :D

Currently, I'm pretty red-hot on the collection. To keep the mental trick up, I'm going to give myself this week, the last in September, to see just how much of the required short stories I can blast through. If I can finish the short story I'm halfway through, write the Nicole story and maybe a couple of segments of the multi-segment "A Succubus for Social (In)Justice" story, I will pretty much have the first draft of the collection done and can think about a November release.

If the week goes that well, I should just go for it.

However, if I sputter out, find the stories taking longer to write, then I'll put it on the backburner and get back to work on HoHH, as that's the preference from the poll.

I have a couple of things I'm planning to drop for the end of September (and hopefully at the end of the September, not a few days into October!).

One is the new Annette Brite story, "The Big Black Chair". This won't be going up on Literotica. It will go up here (and on SubscribeStar) and then be a collection exclusive.

The other is the first half and teaser of the story I'm planning to enter into this year's Literotica Halloween competition. It's already typed up and ends up a suitably intriguing teaser. And, unlike other work-in-progresses I've posted in the past, the 2nd half is written. Working title for that is "The Real Money Shot" and it features five buxom succubi having a lot of fun with an (un)lucky guy.

After this flurry, it will be back to HoHH and hopefully getting the mini-bosses back on track in October.

One of the reassuring things about the poll is that people are still interested in the HoHH project. It has gone on a little longer than I originally intended and I did have some concerns people were getting antsy for new fiction. The polls results have put that little niggling doubt firmly to bed.

Thanks for taking part. Bear with me while I have a mad flurry this week to see if I can get most of the collection stories written, then the main focus will be back to HoHH and Temptacia.
