Story-Sequel Poll: The Results
The results of my poll are in, and the story that readers chose to be continued is My Sister’s Boyfriend Joey. I’m pleased. It’s the one I voted for. (And yes, goddammit, I’m allowed to have a say in what I write.)
Ninety-nine of you voted. That’s insane. Do that many people really read this blog? Why don’t I get more comments? Are you all too embarrassed or something? Ideally you’re too busy jacking off. Anyway, I really don’t care. I was just pleasantly surprised to get such a great response. But how annoying that it didn’t reach one hundred, right?
So in conclusion, thank you for doing my poll. I hope you enjoyed my poll. I’m sorry my poll didn’t last longer. Was it as good for you as it was for me? I may do it again in the future.
Oh, and I’ve already written a first draft of the story. In the meantime, feel free to peruse the BukBuddies gallery of Joey, the model who inspired the original tale. He still yanks my crank.

Yo My Brother’s Buddy Tony, I’m really happy for you, I’m going to let you have your sequel, but Dr. Craig had one of the best sequels of all time…one of the best sequels of all time!
On a side note, I didn’t even see “My Brother’s Buddy Tony” in the list of stories to vote for. Did you confuse it for My Sister’s Boyfriend Joey? Or should I shut up and pretend I didn’t notice that?

Steve, the answer to your question is that I’m a dumb-ass who can’t even keep his meager excuse for porn story titles straight, probably because they’re so goddamn similar because I suck at coming up with them. I fixed it and thanks for pointing it out.
And thank you Kanye, your opinion is noted. “Dr. Craig” was at the top for a while there, and I was really sweating it cause I could not think of a way to extend the lives of those characters. The only reason I added it to the poll was as a favor the reader who’d inspired the idea of a reader-based poll in the first place. I mean, I would’ve come up with something had it won, but what? Give me a good enough idea and I just might pursue it.

“Ideally you’re too busy jacking off.” Or, buzzing one off for your female readers.

Natty, long time reader, first time commenter. I feel badly that you didn’t know that you had so many readers. Honestly, everytime I’m planning on jerking off, the first website I hit is BacteriaBuger. By some odd cosmological occurence we share all the same kinks, and I have yet to meet a story of yours that hasn’t made me cum. You’re incredibly talented and all I can ask for is more frequent updates, and for you to start writing for porn studios officially, screw joe gage. you’ve got more talent by far…
Love and Hugs,
HomoSuperior

HomoSuperior, That is weird that we share the same kinks, but I couldn’t hope for anything more. I would really like to write more scripts, but it just doesn’t seem to be in the cards, or I don’t know how to get into it. At this point I’m just grateful to have an audience from you guys, because the outlets for my writing are dwindling by the day.

As one of your female readers (this is one of the first places I visit, too, for 100% satisfaction), who adores your writing and can’t comprehend that you aren’t already being published by the online gay romance publishers, I realized, hell, you may not even know about it. I don’t think you’ll be able to retire, but I would imagine with your talents, you’d get a rabid following fairly soon. (As far as I’m concerned, “My Straight Buddy Scott” is ready for release — just need a little romance mush w/a HEA (Happy Ever After, i.e., they fall in lurve and ride off into the sunset)). If you’re not familiar with the publishers, I’d recommend Loose ID, Torquere Press, Samhain, MLR.

whey,
You’re kind of blowing my mind. I mean, I’d always sort of known that there was a market for gay romance but it honestly never occurred to me that I might fit in there. And I’d heard of Torquere Press but I hadn’t looked into it much. In particular, the Loose ID page got me excited – especially all that talk about how much money they are making! That’s not something you read about much in publishing. But it makes sense to me.
I’m wondering if you could recommend a particular title or give me more info on what you, personally, enjoy. This is all so over my head but it’s fascinating. Feel free to email me: bacteriaburger(at)gmail(dot)com.
And thanks!
