Update

Hey there, boys and girls!  Another quick update from me - here's another teaser shot from the Morning Shift issue that's due to land in April, featuring the beautiful Anna.  This one's pretty much ready to go now, I just need to sort out some of the final post-production stuff, arrange the statics and build the promo images.

This week I started work on the next round of the 2023 hold-it contest, which is also landing in April.  We're experimenting with a different format for every round this year, and the Q2 round takes place during a flight.  More on the exact reasons behind that in another update, but if you ever had a fantasy about 3 cute ladies getting hit by a sudden bout of colonic distress just as the pilot turns on the Fasten Seatbelt signs, this issue is for you!

Finally - another quick update from me on the subject of real desperation, since a couple of you have asked for more.  I spoke with Poppy, and we're both happy for me to share stuff like that in these updates.  It won't be every day and maybe not every week, but if I'm feeling the urge and I've got time, I don't mind dropping you an update.  If it's not for you then feel free to skip past it - I'll make sure it's at the bottom of these updates so you don't miss any important stuff if you choose to skip.

Gross-out warning - Sadie's Bowel Status Update below:

So, I like to get out of bed early, while the rest of the household is asleep, and get in 60 - 90 minutes of work on these comics before I have to start my day.  Typically, my colon wakes up around 30-60 minutes after I wake up, and it can be quite, shall we say, insistent?  I'll have more on that in the Q&A issue later this year, but for now, let me just say that things are moving down there, but I don't have time to go take care of business because these updates don't write themselves, and there's loads of work to do on these comics before they can be uploaded for you all to enjoy.

That's pretty much the case every day - I just about get into the zone, making good progress on an issue, when I get that signal that it's time to go.  But, I'm a grown woman, so I ignore it, and carry on working.  And it's like, no, really, you don't want to wait, and I'm like, no, really, I do, I've got to keep working, otherwise we'll miss our release deadlines.

Truth be told, it's very rare that things get so bad as making a mess - mostly because I don't have time for the clean-up - but it's quite normal for me to be sitting in my studio, writhing and squirming and surrounded by the stench of my own farts while I'm working on these comics.  I've got a mirror beside my workstation, and when I get those real strong gotta-go cramps, and I have to clench my buns to keep everything where it is, I'll take a look in the mirror and see what my face looks like.  So when you see that grimace of desperation on the faces of the ladies in the comics, that's where it comes from.

And that's kinda where things are right now - there's a lot of cramping going on down there around the front of my abdomen, and a fair bit of gas moving around to the back end.  I'm not trying to hold the gas back, it's easier if I let it go, but there's more than just gas wanting to come out right now.  I'm gonna have to go in the next 20 minutes, otherwise I won't be able to concentrate on this issue.

That's probably all I'll be able to update you on today - I need to meet a certain quota in the next 60 minutes and then I have to start my regular day stuff, with a quick break in there somewhere to offload this express cargo.  Have yourselves a great day wherever you are in the world, and I'll drop you another update as soon as I can.

In the mean time - stay tuned for our next issue, Poolside Pooping, which is going to hit your screens on Friday, like a fat turd escaping the confines of a little pair of cotton panties and splatting onto the pavement half-way down the line for the public restrooms, to the combined relief and horror of the beautiful young lady who couldn't keep it in her butt any longer.
