Congratulations, you got your feedback. What's the next step of your master plan?

Or: "Crashing this page (with no survivors)".

Here's the general consensus I got from the results:

• SFX'd stories > everything else.
• Stories based off of images/sequences are pretty cool.
• More audio stuff overall.
• More public content, though this one I was already intent on.

And here's the changes I plan on making:

More SFX stories

I'm going to focus on getting a SFX story up more often than once every 2-odd months. That sound cool? I think it sounds cool. SFX stories will generally range from 750 to 2000 words, or approximately 5-15 minutes each.

As a result, I'll probably lean away from requested stories without SFX, because those were quantity cranked up to 11. They won't be gone entirely, or even be phased out all that much to begin with. I just have to make room in the schedule for SFX stories and comic dubs.

Also, if anyone has a better name for these than "SFX stories" (pronounced like "esseffecks stories") please tell me. I was calling them "Deluxe Dubs" for a while but I dropped that due to it being somehow even worse. 

Maybe calling fully-realized stuff "Audio Stories" and the regular stuff "Dubs" might work? Eh.

Character Polls

Similar to others artists, I'll be holding patron-exclusive polls to decide on a character. Here's a step-by-step on how that'll work:

• Character suggestions will be provided by $15, $30, and $60 patrons. 
• All patrons ($2 thru $60) will be able to vote in these polls.
• While patron reward stories have 1 VA, these ones will have at least two VAs behind them. I haven't determined the length quite yet, but expect something around the 750-1250 word range.
• An original story will be written (by someone other than myself) and then subsequently voiced (by the VAs) and edited (by me).
• The raw audio files will be posted for $2 patrons to peruse through. 
• The finished recording will then be posted later in the week, free to view by anyone. 
• Along with Patreon, I'll definitely be posting the finished audio stories on deviantArt as well. Don't know if the YouTube algorithm will take too kindly to them, however.
• Repeat from the top.

This will replace those dinky giveaways I held every, like, 5 months or whatever. The latest of which I still need to deliver on. Cough. Those will probably become SFX stories for no good reason.

These changes won't happen immediately (especially not when I'm graduating college and being flung into Job-Searching Hell [tm] in a little over a month from now, yipee), but you can expect to see them sooner rather than later.
