Hey guys! I’m sorry this report is so late. The truth is that I’m really struggling with the writing at the moment. I don’t know what to say except that I’m sorry it’s taking so long.

Hey guys! I'm sorry for being quiet here, and on Discord. I've been struggling with the writing in this episode, and it wasn't clear to me last weekend how to fix it.

Hey guys! Sorry for being quiet, I’ve been deep in a scene.
Sometimes writing feels fast and easy, sometimes everything's difficult and it feels like a slog. This scene has definitely been a slog, requiring sacrifices of much blood, toil, tears and sweat just to get it to...

Hi guys! Just a quick update, as I’ve been very busy prototyping more scenes. It’s hard to talk about without spoilers, but:
Hey guys! I had another good, solid week of writing. I added two more scenes to the prototype build, (so that’s now 5 in total, of 14 planned), and nearly finished the third. I increased the number of lines in the code from 2209 to 4355.

Hi guys! This week, I started production on episode 1.21 of Female Agent.
After the glam date with Kolya, and the empowering, action-packed Christmas episode, we need to get our heroine out of combat boots, back into heels, and back into the Hard Cock Cafe for a shift. (This is both for pac...
