April Large Story Poll

  

April Large Story Poll:

Hey everybody. Sorry about this poll having sort of been forgotten.  First FILFY took even longer than I expected and then ATP did the same due to the COVID thing. 

Seriously people, I hope all of you are staying safe and healthy. Gods bless the EMTs, doctors, health care providers and everyone else on the front line of this scourge.

In conjunction with that disturbance in the Force, I was honestly thinking about...

April Small Story Poll. 

Yo everybody, sorry about this taking so long, I wanted to estimate how long it would take for me to finish the work on Stallion, then Bhaalson Remodel before posting this and the Large Story poll. I decided to move around my priorities a bit this next month. I will finish Stallion, then Remodel, then the small story, then the large story.  The way I have Horse and Magic outlined, I can cut them off about two-thirds of the way throug...

Fanfic Idea for RWBY

  

First a fic sitrep. Despite being home not being as conducive to working on fics as being in a nice, calm, library, I have finished ATP, sent it off to the editor, and should get it back in a day or so. I have finished Sword and sent it off to the editor, no ETA on that. FILFy has been posted after a day of going over it via Grammarly – a boring, slow process I needed frequent breaks from LOL.

On to more amusing news: this was an idea I ca...

March Small Story Poll Results

  

Alright folks, It is the fourteenth, and thus it is time to close down the small story poll. I hope everyone is staying safe and healthy in this madness that seems to have gripped much of the world thanks to the virus.

As another sitrep, FILFy is done and off to the Editor. ATP is about halfway finalized. I ran into several issues that caused me to get rid of several scenes there.  Argh. I also have about nine thousand words of SBH (Sword, B...

March Patron Only Poll Results

  

Okay boys and girls, a day after it should have been closed, I am officially closing the patron only poll.  And for those of you who joined up this past month, I also use this time to give a sitrep on the other ongoing stories in this month. FILFy Teacher, after oddly enough fighting me for a few days, will be done after a final day of editing on my part.  However due to my issues with that story, ATP is about 2/3rds of the way done. So I might be sending it out f...

March Small Story Poll

Hey all, sorry for the minor delay on this, RL got in my way today. Been losing Sunday and Saturday for a while in terms of fic-time honestly. Still, it is time to post the March Small Story poll. 

For those of you who are new from February, I will repeat the explanation on how these polls work: For every dollar you donate here on Patreon, you receive four (4) votes to use in EACH poll. That is, you can participate in the Large Story poll and have ...

Patron Work So Far as of March 2020

Alright folks, it is a bit later than I wanted it to be, but I have finally gotten around to posting an update to my Patreon Only Works.  However there is a difference this time.  I have had a few people, about thirty all told, mention issues with the Patreon page, and a few of them complained about downloading the docs.  Now, while I have never had a problem in that area, I have had enough other issues with Patreon to not scoff at it.  So instead of over a dozen there wil...

March Large Story Poll Results and other points.

Alright, everybody, It is past time to close down the Large Story Poll. I have gotten Horse back from Hiryo and sent it out to a new editor who should have it back to me in time for a Saturday update. I have also finished Making Waves – did so late Saturday/Early Sunday – and it is off to Justlovereadin’ who I have to assume is tearing it apart given how much I had to make up about the Wizard Saints in question LOL. Still, it will be u...

February Small Story Poll Response

Hey everybody, I hope you all are being treated better this month than RL has treated me.  February is always tough, ugh.

Anyway, this poll is finished and somewhat amusingly, it ended in a very predictable way.  

Yes, folks, FILFy won.  In fact, it crushed the competition with 2193.  251 of which came from Fanfiction.net.  

AGGC brought in a total of 1472 with only 91coming in from fanfic.  Fate Touched had a great sh...

A Few Opinion questions

  

Hello all. So I have had a few thoughts, a few questions and a few opinion points I was wondering about, which I thought I’d get some input on. Most of these are small so I won’t be breaking them up into different posts. As always I have labeled each segment by the fic the question has to deal with.

First Patron stuff:

1. What does everyone think about the story rotation I’ve been using for my Patron-only and Large Story polls? Is it working, do you find i...

March Patron Only Poll

  

Yo all, sorry to have waited a day to get this out, planning out the combat portions of MW hit a roadblock (I have three romance scenes written before the combat portions…whuh?!?) Draculos and Wolfram or whatever his name is, showed so little in canon I’ve been having to basically make up their magic on the fly. Anyway, thanks to the rotation system I have decided to use for the Patron Only and large story polls and the fact Making waves won in February, the poll for Ma...

Alright everybody, as it is the thirteenth it is time to end the Patron Only poll.  The next chapter of Horse is done, and sent off to it's first editor and should be out sometime next weekend, maybe.  

For those of you who are new, the way these polls work is you input you choice into the poll Patreon provides, then I weight them.  By which i mean i multiply the dollars you donate by 4 then assign the resulting number as your votes in that poll.  You have the same a...

February Small Story Poll

  

And here is the small story poll. This poll will go until the 18th. 

Normally I would say that the second-place winner also has a chance to be updated, but this is February, and that is just not going to happen LOL. Sorry guys and gals.

March Large Story Poll:

As promised, this will be the large story poll for March. I am trying to get ahead at least with the large story polls. I will also try to get ahead for the patron only poll, but not as much LOL. The small story poll is good as is. And that, FYI, is how I see my priority going forward. 

For all of you who signed up in January, welcome!! You made this past month one of the best months I’ve seen for number of patrons. Once more, for ...

February Large Story Poll

Okay everybody, a day after I had wanted to post this, but RL got in the way during my free time today, so I had to push calculating this poll back until tonight. For those wondering, the polls for February will be posted soon after this response. I wanted to wait until I closed the large story poll down before deciding which stories I would post this month on the small story poll, and I needed time to see how large the chapters for the two stories in the patron-only poll would be and if they...

January Small Story Poll Response

Okay, it is now the 21st and that means it is time to bring the small story poll for January to an end. I am noticing that more people – about 100 to maybe 150, are voting now that I’ve started to use this format. I will remind everyone though that these polls are weighted! I go through the downloaded results and weight them by giving out 4 vtoes for every dollar donated.
And now on to the results.
In last place, which did somewhat surprise me, was AGGC. It scored a total of 839. Ea...

Aunt's Touch Concept Revamped

  

Hello all! Here is a revamped outline of what to expect from an Aunt’s Touch. I must reiterate that I will not be picking this story up for a very long time, not until Semblance, AGGC, and ATP are done. Unless a muse grabs me by the throat and won’t let go, I do not want to become entangled with another ongoing project. That being said, I had a major idea for this story and thought to s...

February Large Story Poll

  

As I have said several times before, February sucks balls, so I would like to know precisely what large story to work on from the get-go. This is why I am putting up my large story poll for February now.

For those of you who have joined, welcome! As it says on my main patron page, if you donate a dollar, you get four votes in EACH poll. You cannot double down.  Once you vote,  I can then add weight to the choices when I download the poll results.

Patron Only Poll results

  

Today is the 16th, which means that it is time to close the Patron only poll. The small story poll will continue to the 22nd. I will also be posting the February large story poll soon. 

First, as everyone has no doubt seen, I have started to use Patreon’s poll posts rather than my own poll where you all had to tell me your choices. While there are still issues with this type of poll since I can download the results and look at it all at once, I can then weigh i...

Should I continue with Heroes of the High Seas?

This poll is obviously to do with the future of my MHA/One Piece Crossover. I actually had a lot more fun writing Izuku than I expected, and Momo and the others, even Iida and Icy-Hot were fun too. So I honestly would like to see this story continued. HOWEVER, I also don’t want to either alienate my long term HP or Ranma only fans by rushing into a new fandom, and I also don’t want to take on ANOTHER story without finishing one or two I am already working on. For those who don’t remembe...

January Small Story Poll

  

And here is the small story poll. I chose the stories I felt would allow me to keep control of the chapter well enough to get it out regardless of if the Patron only story is in the small story range or medium story range. That is why Stallion of The Line is not on this list.  I worked out how many words that chapter could take, and it ran a minimum of 25,000 and max of 35,000. And given my track record of keeping my story chapters small I dec...

Patron Only POll and Plans for January

  

Happy New Year’s Day everyone! Hope all of you are safe/warm/healthy etc.

First let me say I hope you’re liking the latest question and answer session, although I have to say the questions I’ve been asked so far have been kind of tame in comparison to the questions I get asked via PM… hmm… LOL. 

It is as said above, the first of January, and December is behind me even if I didn’t quite get to everything I wanted to. The length of Her...

Okay guys, first of all, as I hinted at before, FILFy Teacher is not going to be updated this month.  I have it nearly done, but there's no chance of me getting it off to a beta reader by tommorrow.  Instead I will make it a large story update in January, along with Horse for the Force.  That means there will be two polls posted tomorrow for January dealing with the small story and the patron only story.  

I will be posting another sort of o...
