Added 2025-08-01 18:57:57 +0000 UTCLet's hope this month is more productive than last month.
The month of July just kind of got blown away with my daughter's appendicitis. But we are back to normal now and the hope is to get A LOT done this month.
On the list:
The rest of writing Chapter Eight for Hazel
Fixing ALL current logged bugs, including the annoying game breaking one for Bella and the poly with her and Gabe.
Write Bella's NSFW scene
Write Hazels NSFW scene
Move all NSFW content to Patreon only.
I am going to have kind of a weird situation with the NSFW scenes until things settle a bit with Steam and itch. They are not going to be in the twine doc at all and I will just be posting them here on Patreon. Which, I'm still not sure how I'm going to do with the choices. Ultimately, your choices during that scene do not affect the game so I don't need them for coding but I do have choices this book with the scenes. I don't know if I'm just going to have everyone scroll down to the choice they pick. If I have to put them all in different cuts. I'm not sure. I'll be figuring that out this week as well. Suggestions would be wonderful as we all kind of navigate this bullshit climate of censorship.
I'm not going to lie, my lack of time to write has been disheartening. I feel like any day I have time to work, something interrupts it. It's been a slog and I'm really hoping that things will change this month. Childcare has been a bit tougher to come by so I know that's been part of it. My little ones are old enough now, however, that hopefully I can just give them a day in front of cartoons and I can get some work done. LOL! They certainly won't complain.
Hope everyone is doing well,
Zinnia

In regards to the censorship, it seems that the issue (according to the payment processors that have been called out for denying they pressured anyone over NSFW work) is that people have to pay for NSFW content. Writers should be allowed to sell their craft regardless of their content, and to me it sounds like those people targeting paywalls on NSFW just want it for free. But if it helps you with making a decision I can direct you to a really helpful video I found that covers this issue.

2025-08-02 04:11:59 +0000 UTCI'm for sure going to do fade to black in the twine doc but I was more thinking about how to post it here. Because the full scene will be on Patreon but I cannot upload a twine doc here for you guys to click through the choices you want.

2025-08-01 20:22:07 +0000 UTCYou could just use a fade to black option, when those scenes come up. Idk how easy or hard that would be, but it just popped in my head so I thought I'd share. 😁 Glad things are getting better with your daughter, and hope your kitty is feeling better as well!! 👍🙂
