Show And Tell - Author's Note and Index (And Full Renders - NSFW)
🕑 Added 2025-06-30 04:00:08 +0000 UTCAside: July is tomorrow. I noticed a few new members. I like to give the new folks a welcome like this: Welcome new folks. Thanks for joining.
I didn't realize the Renders that I made for these five parts at 4k HD had been butchered by Patreon reducing them in size by a lot. Hopefully, they'll be full size in this post since it is an "images" post. My favorite image is the reenactment of "get on the disk" from Show and Tell #3...
Show And Tell is finally finished. You did read it, right? I'll wait. Spoilers ahead. Maybe. Probably not. At a minimum, go look at that first part of the story. Stop at the point where another student asks if Britney is finished with her presentation so she can talk about her grandmother's scarf. From the beginning to the scarf was the entirety of Show And Tell for like nine months. I had no intention of adding anything. And then I did. Even the renders came later.
Around the time I started writing Show And Tell. I started another story called Estate Sale. The big index file has been saying Estate Sale will release soon for a long time now, sigh. Be that as it may be, they share a few themes and while I'm annoyed at myself for not finishing Estate Sale sooner -- it's still not finished -- I'm kind of glad I'm not releasing a pair of stories with a similar theme one on top of the other.

Coming Soon
Next week is one of my weird stories. On a site where people turn into figurines and couch cushions, that's saying something, isn't it? It's called Dumpster Dolly. And it is a POV story told in 1st Doll.
The week after is 8 weeks of Sold. Where do folks who rent out dolls get their inventory? It's 32k words and I could probably increase that if I really wanted to. I started having trouble keeping the time line straight toward the end. I probably wrote something more about that in front of one or more of the parts.
With a year's worth of comics in the can, I've been making one of comics. The problem there is scheduling. Thursday might become an occasional release date. Time will tell.
Season 5 of Ted's Dolls has taken a back seat to nearly a dozen stories competing for my attention, four of which were conceived in the last week or so. At the moment I have the issue I thought I'd escaped with Season 4 ending at Spring Break. TD#53 takes place three weeks before Spring Break.
I've contemplated getting rid of the POV chapters convention in Ted's Dolls and just making Season 5 a long form narrative that can jump around more granularly. Given that the existing seasons average around 45K, as a long form narrative, it would be a novel. And writing a novel always takes longer than a short story.
