1. Managing Upwards [Amazon/Futa][Rival]

2. Doctor's Orders [Futa/PE]{Power Dynamics]

3. Home for the Holidays [Amazon/Futa][Family Drama]

4. Super-Sized Sleepover [Amazon/FMG][Family Drama]

5. Barbie to Brawny [Amazon/FMG][Power Dynamics]

6. Friends Share [Amazon/FMG][Best Friend/Crush]

7. Raising the Stakes [Amazon/FMG][Rival]

8. Fitting In [Futa/FMG][Secret Crush] 

9.The Biggest Grower [GTS/FMG][Rival]

10. Summer Camp [Amazon/FMG][Secret Crush]

So what does this all mean? Managing Upwards and Doctor's Orders were two of my favorites, and it's clearly yours as well! Barbie to Brawny pulled out an impressive score, I had a good feeling about that one too. What's fascinating is, there's a pretty even split across the four categories--do you have any new categories for next time we do this?

I'm noticing a trend that fantasy stories don't seem to do as well with this community as contemporary ones--and that's reflected in feedback surveys as well. But I am curious if anyone wants to message me separately about what might make for an interesting fantasy story for them. I enjoy the genre, but obviously don't want to be making stories folks won't enjoy.
