Tabenings - Word Count Edition

Herro yet again!

So I am plugging away at 'Modding'. Current word count is 9,535. I think I'm about 33% done with the initial draft. Gotta work through some plot and storytelling before I hit the really hot mind control bits.

Also in initial talks with Uzobono about CORE #12 or possibly another Division universe one-shot, a la Guided Tour. Since we're now into double digits I'm demanding a change in our profit-sharing arrangement. My current percentage is not enough but I figure a few more percent and I can give up the day job.

:D

However, I have to say, if I did want to make some money with my smut - and I do but not enough to overcome the logistical challenges involved - I'd be writing a porn game. You have probably noticed but if you haven't there's a small gold rush going on. Big studios are not going to get near porn with a ten-foot pole so there's a nice wide niche for individuals to create porn games and make a decent sideline at it; for the biggest small games, even a reasonable living.

I can write (or so I delude myself) and I can also code fairly well. Art, not so much, but of course I could Opportunities that.

But if I don't have space in my free time to produce much smut anyway - and I don't, you can see my productivity - working on a game is of course right out. Alas! There are some good ones out there, though; I've linked to several in this space.

Okay, time to get a little more 'Modding' done!

  2. I have almost finished 'The Anax'. This novel might reach 200,000 words! You know that once I have my entire foundation built, I intend on creating actual games. Though you may not be able to make them, and we are both writers, though I am unsure if I hold a candle to you, but mayhap you could write a few scenes for the finale of Slugs and Bugs. All credit to you, of course, for any contributions. Just an idea. Or, perhaps you could be my editor, of sorts, to give me a perspective that I might otherwise miss. Anyway, I do hope, m'lady, you enjoy this next, extremely large project, and I look forward to reading 'Modding'.

  3. Hey Tabico! I am a huge fan of your works and if you were ever interested in making a game of some sort, I'd love the chance to work with you, I have experience with Unity and Ren'py. :D

  4. Porn authors and illustrators such as the frighteningly productive Jukebox seem to be having decent success with Patreon, have you thought about using it?

  5. Well, I can say I'm looking forward to modding, as it's a rare thing indeed for Tabico to put out less than quality smut... still waiting with baited breath (among other things) for Pierced to be finished!!!
