Here is another harlot art preview, and - like last week - it's another character that originally showed up in one of my stories.
Marwmellow had a tough ask to depict Eve Satana, she of "the biggest tits in the world", and I think he got it right. The horns are a nice addition.
I suspect I'm not going to be able to get grok to animate this. :D
I hope you like the art. Let me know your thoughts below.

This was a slightly quieter week to recover from the frenzied writing and editing of getting the new collection together.
I put a rough manuscript together to put on my kindle, and I'm currently reading through to catch anything I missed in the first editing pass. Given I found about 20 typos in the first two short stories, this feels a useful step in the editing process!
Originally, I was going to write that I was pretty much done and just waiting on the cover art. However, Mar...

Art preview for this week is Boobella, who I definitely inadvertently spoiled while playing around with grok/imagine...
I did get a cute little animation for her, which fit surprisingly well.
I wrote her as a slightly different succubus to the usual dominatrix types in black latex. She's supposed to be more of an 'alpha bitch cheerleader' type. I wrote her as a more hate-sink type of succubus. Instead, she ended up being very popular. I guess people really like that type of ...

First the update.
This week was mostly mopping up the last bits for the new collection. It was a lot of mopping up, so there wasn't any time left over to get back onto HoHH.
All the writing and typing up is now done. I wanted to get the endings right for "Outcall with a Succubus" and the main story "A Succubus for Social Justice". If you're interested in the wider lore there are some big wham moments in the ending section of the latter. ;)
I also wrote an Afte...

As you might be aware, I've been feeding some of the HoHH art into grok/imagine, and some of the results have been pretty good.
(I'd show them here, but Patreon is understandably finicky with video uploads from 18+ creators. I did make a blog post last week with some of them and have been posting a few on 2025-10-13 13:06:47 +0000 UTC

The major writing (and typing) for the collection is pretty much done. I have a couple of pages to type up for the Koontz story and other assorted odds and ends of various epilogue type pieces.
"Outcall with a Succubus" is just over 8K words typed up. It's done aside from a short epilogue and editing.
The Kiki Sumoppai/Koontz story is going to be titled "The Curious Disappearance of Daniel Drake from Flight AA363". (The flight number might change. I haven't decided whether t...

Now that the writing on the short story collection is winding down, I'm going to try posting the regular art previews and harlot spotlights again.
There is a chance I might have lost my place and end up previewing harlot art I've already previewed. Between trying to stagger them across 3 different tiers and now getting distracted by the new AI tools capable of animating them, there's a good chance I'm going to get confused.
Anyway, here's Misty, who I hope is new for the $1 tie...

Grok's imagine function has updated.
This generates a 6 second animation from a picture you give it. I found out about it after someone on the Situation Succ discord fed it Temptacia.
So, I played around with it.
I showed it to marwmellow and he played around with it.
And we got some fun results.
I've posted a few on twitter.

Another solid week on the short story collection.
Unfortunately, some IRL stuff lost me a couple of days at the end of the week, so it's not quite as done done as I'd like.
I did think about activating the "must be finished by end of September" clause, but that was mainly in place if I felt I got blocked, or was twiddling my thumbs trying to push something that was stubbornly refusing to happen. That hasn't been happening. My prooductivity has mostly been pretty consistent and...

Right, I do have something to post on the end of the month.
As a thank you for being patient while I took this month (and a bit) off to get the next collection of short stories together for publication, here is an excerpt of one of those stories.
"A Succubus for Social Justice" is the eponymous succubus tablet story. Someone gets hold of the succubus tablet and uses it for vigilantism in taking down people they don't like. The nameless succubus is quite busy and gets a few 'ki...

Work on the short story collection is progressing quite nicely.
I have a rough running order sorted out. It will be around 80K words and about half of that will be brand new material. I'll only be taking six stories out of the existing stockpile, which means I still have quite a few left for future collections.
As for the new material.
I've arranged the various segments of the main [succubus tablet] story into some semblence of order. Overall it will be 20-25K words. ...

Work on the collection is rattling along nicely. There is a reason this one took so long to put together. It has a fairly complex structure. I jokingly likened my collections to music albums a few years ago. If that's the case, this is the really complex prog-metal concept album where every song is titled "something: part x". (Funnily enough, one of the short story characters is named after Arjen Lucas...

After a wobble, I got things moving again.
I typed up about 7,000 words of the [succubus tablet] story. About four and a half of the sub-stories are typed up, which still leaves the 6th piece and a lot of short interludes that move the plot to the climax.
I'm really happy with how the collection is snapping together. It reinforces how most of these stories are taking place in a shared setting, and you'll get to see various characters move in and out of stories and hint at thei...

I had a slight wobble last week and failed the get the usual harlot spotlight out. That one is written now, so it should go out Thursday as normal for $5 and higher tiers.
In the meantime, I'll continue to preview harlots that already received their spotlight a month or so ago.
This week it's the great pitcher plant Aphroú Kanáta ton Ouránia. Not the easiest one to draw, so I think Marwmellow did a good job with her.
Now I need to write that sidequest with Sapoonis, so...

A rough week.
The start of it was tied up with getting the details ready for the next art commission. There's some special stuff in that, so I'm interested in how those will come out and look forward to showing the pieces off when they come in. (The commission was a little... spicier this time. ;) )
Then... politics.
I consider myself an entertainer, and I'm a firm believer that because of the inherently divisive nature of politics and that any entertainer's audience is...

Art preview today is Veronicella. I can think of two good reasons to like the piece.
Ahem.
Slug girls are fairly difficult to make sexy, so great work from marwmellow here.
I still don't know where to put Veronicella.
Her game mechanics are a better fit for the wrestling faction.
She does give the sensual body massages that fit well with the sensuality group, but I'm not convinced she's a fervent follower of using her gifts to bring pleasure rather than jus...

The start of the week was a little wobbly as the last "short" from the new [succubus tablet] story decided to fight a little. I managed to get it finished, but it was a slower start to the week than I was hoping for. All the parts for the complex [succubus tablet] story are written aside from the final closing section (which I'll do after I've typed up all the other parts).
I then tucked into the "Mage vs Succubus Slime" story. The first draft of that is very close to done. Just th...

It's time to talk a little bit about the next collection of short stories I'm working on. It's been 10 years since my last collection (A Succubus for St Patricks Day). I didn't really intend for the gap to be that long, but things happen.
While most of my time has been spent on HoHH, I have been writing new shorts stories here and there. Some might become 1...

I skipped the art preview last week to make room for the HoHH release. Getting it back on track, here is Cerastesia (although I'm not 100% happy with her name, so that might change).
She is the sister of Calliophi and a much more fiery and passionate personality. She likes a sensual dance with her visitors.
The original sketch was supposed to be for Calliophi, but it didn't really fit her so I added Cerastesia to the commission and had marwmellow use it for her instead.

First up, I finally got the slime smother nun (Voluptua Obruo) release out. The details of that are in a previous post.
My replacement laptop also showed up a little quicker than expected, which meant I could also update the houseofhellishharlots website at the start rather than the middle of the week and get back to regular activities.
This left most of the week clear for the next activity.

My replacement laptop showed up a little earlier than expected, so I'm gradually getting full internet access back.
I was able to update the houseofhellishharlots website with the new release. Also the Embed Twine plugin I was using appears to be working again, so no more opening text version in a new tab.
The public text demo has been updated to v0.056 (this adds Temptacia).

Testing yesterday went fairly smoothly, so the demo version v0.058 of House of Hellish Harlots is finally ready. Because I also commissioned pinup art of Voluptua back when I commissioned the batch of other harlot "elites", I can show that off as well.
This is the text-only version of HoHH, which currently has all the harlots (83!). It's also been a long gap between text-only releases. Originally, my plan was to put out Voluptua at the end of February. This was knocked off...

First up, the wifi network adaptor for my main laptop has died, meaning I no longer have internet access with that machine. I was about due needing a new laptop anyway, so I have a new one ordered, which should show up next week sometime. In the meantime I have partial internet access through a backup laptop that is old, slow, and has a dodgy keyboard.
Thankfully, this hasn't affected development too much, but I'll probably be off discord and other places until the replacement laptop...

Continuing the art previews, here is another mid-tier harlot from the Artificial Beings faction.
Va-kyuuma loves to put men in her vac-bed and give them a good long suck.
Art is by marwmellow. I like the piece, but wish I'd planned the factions out more in advance to give them different colour schemes. Va-kyuuma looks very similar to the smotherbuses.
On the other hand, part of the gameplay of HoHH is figuring out which factions the harlots belong to, so having a few wi...

Finally, a good week!
I kept plugging away on Slime Smother Nun and got about 7-8,000 words typed up. Not superfast, but steady progress, which I'll take at this point. All 5 of her sub-scenarios are pretty much typed up. I just have her insta-Bad-End option to do (a shorter sub-scenario leading directly to Bad End) and some smaller core pieces. Maybe 1-2K words total.
My plan for next week is to finish the typing up, leave it for a day or two, come back and edit it, and the...

I think I've paused it enough to catch up. Time to restart the art previews for the $1 tiers.
This will cover the mid-tier harlots. I don't have full profiles for them yet. I'll write those when I come to add them to the 1.5 Art version of HoHH. That will be after the round 5 mini-bosses and notebook functionality for the low-tier harlots. Both of which have proven a little tricky and time-consuming, but are - gradually - getting done.
Art for this week is the artificial be...

The main goal for this week was to try and get things back on track again.
It was a little mixed. I had some other IRL stuff to fix as well. The crypto exchange I use to pay marwmellow recently upgraded their security, so I had to get that sorted out in order to get access back to my account. Thankfully, that does appear to be sorted out and I was able to pay marwmellow what I owed him from the previous batch and also get the next batch of harlots commissioned.

As mentioned in the previous post showing off some lovely Tete Khantu art, the Slime Smother Nun is still giving me problems. I felt the deadline pressure was locking me up again, so I took another few days off to try and shift it.
Normally I partition my day 4-5 hours on 1st drafts, 2-3 hours typing up, and 2-3 hours coding. This means that if I'm running slow on something, I'm still moving on something else. Unfortunately, when I'm behind, that gets thrown out of the window and eve...
