When will we finally see a damn update to SuperSexyHeroines.com?<\/strong><br \/>\nBy 6am on Friday 11th May &#8211; i.e two days time<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. How many chapters will you be uploading by 6am Friday 11th May?<\/strong><br \/>\nUnfortunately just three (I think).<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Hang on&#8230; the last update was 10th April, so as of today (9th April) you&#8217;re 4 updates behind.<\/strong><br \/>\nYep &#8211; and its about to get worse. See below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. About to get worse? There are more delays?<\/strong><br \/>\nUnfortunately yes. The reason for the delay to &#8216;Crush&#8217; is a problem with hard drive and I lost a LOT of data, including the raw images for Crush and the working copy of the next SuperheroinePeril.com movie. So I had to reshoot the &#8216;Crush&#8217; photoset which took the place of another shoot I had scheduled.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Eh? So what does this actually mean for SuperSexyHeroines.com updates?<\/strong><br \/>\nIt means that I will be uploading 2-3 chapters of Crush at 6am on Friday 11th May. I can then also upload some photo sets that I have ready or publishing &#8211; but I can only really do a couple weeks of that.<\/p>\n<p>So my next shoot scheduled is on 21st May, and I&#8217;ll probably try and get something out on Wednesday 23rd May. But this does mean that there will be more missing updates until I can back fill using this next shoot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. I&#8217;m still not 100%. Give me a table of what to expect<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Okay, so by 6am on Friday 11th May the following will be delivered:<\/p>\n<p>17 April &#8211; Crush, chapter 1 &#8211; AWAITING<br \/>\n24 April &#8211; Crush, chapter 2 &#8211; AWAITING<br \/>\n1 May &#8211; Crush, chapter 3 &#8211; AWAITING<br \/>\n8 May &#8211; Photoset &#8211; AWAITING<\/p>\n<p>Then, by 22nd or 23rd May I&#8217;ll then be uploading an update to the website to cover the two update slots below:<\/p>\n<p>15 May<br \/>\n22 May<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Is this actually going to happen?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes. I&#8217;ve re-shot Crush and now I need to colour-correct the photos and create a comic book. I think I can get 3 good chapters out of it<\/p>\n<p><strong>8. But what about the photo set you&#8217;re shooting on 21st May &#8211; are you really going to be able to get that published by 23rd May?<\/strong><br \/>\nYes &#8211; I was actually thinking of testing out a new way of publishing\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>9. A new way of publishing? What do you mean exactly?<\/strong><br \/>\nSo on the SuperSexyHeroines.com website I&#8217;ve always created a comic book with dialogue, etc. I was thinking of experimenting with publishing a Mandi Steele style photo set where I colour-correct the images and upload in the order of a story.<br \/>\nWhat do you think?<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. I&#8217;ll leave that for real people to decide and comment on the bottom of this blog.<\/strong><br \/>\nOkay<\/p>\n<p><strong>11. So, what about SuperheroinePeril.com or SuperheroineFilms.com?<\/strong><br \/>\nOkay, so we have a new film that I was working on featuring a very sexy Supergirl &#8216;thanking&#8217; a man for saving her. I was 95% complete and only had the music and sound effects to add before publishing. The bad news is that it was lost when my Lacie hard drive failed.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that I have another copy on another hard drive &#8211; and whilst its not as finished as the copy I lost, its better than starting again. So I&#8217;m going to be working on that next week and I&#8217;ll definitely be releasing that in May<\/p>\n<p><strong>12. I&#8217;ve heard it all before &#8211; I have no faith that you&#8217;ll update on time<\/strong><br \/>\nYeah, I guess that&#8217;s understandable, so I look forward to surprising you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>13. Why are you so late all the time? When you started the site in 2005 up until about a year ago you were like clockwork. Now its really sporadic<\/strong><br \/>\nThere are a number of very boring reasons. Family and my work (I have to travel and spend weeks offshore) have changed, and so I&#8217;m always playing catchup. I really need a partner, but the sites don&#8217;t actually generate a massive profit, and what profit I do have I plough back into more photoshoots and videos. Plus I&#8217;m really precious about it all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>14. So why shouldn&#8217;t I just cancel my subscription now?<\/strong><br \/>\nI wouldn&#8217;t blame you\u2026 but please don&#8217;t. Believe me when I say that Crush is an awesome story, and the shoot I&#8217;ve got planned on 21st May is going to be great. Plus, I have been talking to Danica about making another appearance on the SuperSexyHeroines.com website so watch this space.<\/p>\n<p>Hey guys, I&#8217;m really sorry for the delays. One of my bad habits\/failings is that I get incredibly embarrassed when I miss and update and I fail to update the blog telling people about the delay. I know its stupid and its kinda like burying my head in the sand. I know about this and I&#8217;m going to try and so something about it because I know how important communication is.<\/p>\n<p>So please please bear with me whilst I restart working on Crush and I&#8217;ll have an update for you on Friday at 6am UK time. I&#8217;ll then keep you updated on how the photoshoot on the 21st May goes &#8211; let me know if you&#8217;d like to see a Mandi Steele style update which will be large images but in sequential order to resemble a story &#8211; no panels, no dialogue, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks and my sincere apologies again.<\/p>\n<p>Jon <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know what you&#8217;re thinking: &#8220;Whats the excuse this time?&#8221; And yeah, I&#8217;d be unhappy too, so I&#8217;m going to skip the grovelling and the excuse (hard drive failure btw and I had to reshoot the next story entitled &#8216;Crush&#8217;), and cut to the chase: 1.
