I almost feel bad for not having made my reviews public over the last few chapters of Hostel. While I think 321 knows how much I'm enjoying this story -- and his others -- it's definitely worth saying that it's a story I'd recommend everyone checks out. Things seem to be coming to a head with this latest chapter, with hints of some tense yet hot action to come soon. The only bad thing I can say about it is that the story feels like it might be approaching the end. Either way, I'm sure it will continue to be wonderful.

Wonderful scenes in this week’s installment of “Hostel” of hypnotized women hypnotizing other hypnotized women.  Also, more of Rebecca’s back story showing how conflicted she is as a heroine.  Her attempts to use hypnosis to clean up messes caused by hypnosis reminds me of the Butterfly Effect.

Thanks, Shadra and fumanchu! Still a few more chapters to go, I think! Taking a slight break to work on holiday things and to preserve the space-time continuum (aka the January 4th, 2020 update), but I'll be back with more Hostel after that!

There was no "Christmas Eve," either. It's always nice when you don't have to think of a backup title for a story.

Advent Calendar is fantastic. I think I was as eager to see those windows opened as Evelyn!

Thank you - I wrote most of this story in late October, and it was a really nice way to prepare for the holiday season.

Cape City Chronicles: Today the City, Tomorrow... (mc mf ff md fd ma cb) (1 new chapter)  by Jennifer Kohl
Years ago, a supervillain enslaved and then wiped out every male hero in Cape City. Now she’s escaped prison, and unpowered cop Alessandra Alvarez might be the only one who can stop her. But this time, neither of them will be working alone...

This is just getting better.

I'm reminded of that old-school approach to superhero comics where there are always some short-term, mid-term and long-term plots popping up in a given series, with plenty of continuity-heavy crossing over.

Thank you!

And yeah, I'm doing that deliberately. My view has always been that a superhero comic is basically just a soap opera with fighting instead of fucking. But it's got that same structure--a melodrama where at any given time you've got at least three plots, one of which is just starting, one of which is hitting its climax, and one of which is somewhere in the middle.

I'm just adding the fucking back in.

Wow. I didn't check, but I did just assume that 'Advent Calendar' would be a title that already existed, and I'd get 'Advent Calendar (scifiscribbler).
