Hey, hey! Hope you're all doing well this week, friends!

I'm still largely focused on writing the script for the remade Chapter 1, with my efforts currently centered on the love path ero scene. I'm pretty excited about this one, because I get to right a wrong that had long bothered me about Chapter 1, which sort of undermined Nicki and MC/Guy's dynamic.. No spoilers, but it's a change that I think makes for a big improvement.

But, while I'm writing, I'm still doing some test renders which may end up being used in the final product. Enter: Brent! Look at him -- such a douche. Many of you know that I'm a big fan of comics, and when I write Brent, I've tried to cast him in the model of characters like Guy Gardner or Eric O'Grady. He's not really a bad guy, in the macro sense. But he's an unbearable asshole to be around, because he's a selfish, short-sighted moron. These qualities also just make him super fun to write.

Finally, in my continuing efforts to liven up these posts a bit, I've attached a little homage to the movie Secretary. Starring Maggie Gyllenhaal and James Spader, this was one of the first movies I saw that seriously explored the whole dom/sub dynamic in a way that was nuanced and interesting. If you've never seen it, maybe give it a watch! It's super sweet and funny, while also addressing some of the feelings of shame that tend to be at the core of being wired differently, when it comes to love and sex.

I'll leave you with that today! I should be starting in on actual rendering work by month's end, and then my updates will hopefully be a bit more exciting and informative. But, until then -- take care of yourselves, and thank you for your support!
