A New Transformation - My Last Caption


400 captions, 415 followers, 5.4 million page views, and 4 years of work have brought me here. And the only thing I really want to say is "Thank You."

The Kylie captions I should have been posting all along.

Hey, my internet is back. Let's see if we can't finish this month in style.

Lost in Her Hands


I meant to post this 12 hours ago, but better late than never. Here is reader request number 2.

Who doesn't love crazy? (This is probably going to be the last "long" caption I post.)

The End of the Road - Going Out with a Bang

Before I discuss what the title of this post means, I first want to say thank you to everyone who has ever read one of my posts. Each and every one of you has helped me get to this point. I'm still in awe of the fact that this blog has gotten over five million views. Five million. That number just doesn't make sense to me. Back when I started posting my captions here I had a pipe dream of hitting this number, but I still can't believe I actually got here. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Unfortunately all good things must come to an end.

July will be my last month of actively adding to new content to this blog. I mentioned that I've been thinking about walking away a few months ago, and hinted at it before that, so hopefully this isn't too much of shock to anyone. In truth I've been thinking about stopping for well over a year now. There's a lot of reasons I've decided to call it quits, but the two biggest ones are that I really haven't been personally invested in tg fantasies in a while, and I feel like I've told all the stories I wanted to tell. So rather than dragging on and constantly feeling guilty about the long gaps in my production schedule, I've decided that it's time for me to retire. I don't know if this means I'll be gone for good, you never know if I might have some random burst of inspiration further down the road, but if I'm being perfectly honest I really don't see that happening. I've done what I originally set out to do and then some, plus I met some awesome people along the way.

I recently went back and looked at most of the captions I've written, and while there are definitely some caps that I'd handle differently if I was writing them now, as a whole I couldn't be prouder of the work I've done. Being a part of this community and having the chance to interact with readers and insanely talented creators has truly been a pleasure.

But I'm getting ahead of myself. I'm not saying goodbye just yet. I've got one more month of new content ahead of me, and I want to make it a bigger and better month than this site has seen in years. I'm planing on posting at least 15 new captions (and between you and me I'm going to try to do a good bit more than that).

So here's the deal, if you have ever wanted to request a cap now is your chance. I'm going to be taking the rest of June off, but once July 1st hits I'm going to be devoting almost all of my free time to turning out as many captions as I possibly can. So get your requests in now because I'm planning on using this time off to collect the images I'm going to be using.

I hope you all join me for one last blaze of glory. You all have given me so much, so I want to give you a little bit more before I step away. See you in July.

PS - Some tips about requests
 If you want to increase the likelihood of me choosing to make your request here are some rough guidelines:
  • If you're sending pics with your story the more professional looking the images are, the better chance you have of me using them (take a look at the types of images I've been using in the past year or so to get an idea of the quality of pics I tend to use)
  • I'll try to be as accomodating as possible with the content of the request, but if you've got characters under 18 or incest I'm telling you right now I will change those aspects. I know there are people out there who really like those kinds of stories, but they are a major personal turn off. 
  • I'm probably not going to have time to do a lot of multiple panel stories, so if your request is too long I'll probably have to shorten it. If you think your story might run the risk of getting trimmed let me know which parts you absolutely want me to included and I'll do my best to keep them in.
  • Don't be a dick. Pretty much all of you are awesome but there are a few people who have made requests that I straight up ignored. They are the ones who were blatantly rude and/or spammed me the same ideas over and over again. I don't anticipate this being a problem but I figured I'd throw it in here anyway.
I think that's about it. You can send me requests either by the submission box on the left side of the screen or through email (I'm at 22rauk at gmail). Let's make some great stuff together.

Blog News

Hey everyone, this is going to be a text-only update as there are some things I want to talk about just in case I don't find the time to make a new caption in the next couple of days.

First off, thank you to those of you who let me know about another blog reposting my work, I appreciate you looking out for me. I'm not going to mention the name as I have no intention of sending them extra traffic, but I have checked it out and will be keeping an eye on it in the future. Right now I'm not too concerned as the site's manager is just copying entire posts so they aren't changing my words, and there are no ads on the site so they aren't making money either. If either of those things change I'll look into it again, but for now I'm just going to let this slide.

The other thing I want to touch on is the two requests I've received. I just wanted to let the readers who sent them in know I got them, although I'm not sure when I'll get around to actually making them. When I do get around to writing them I'll try to keep a good amount of the original ideas that were submitted, but I'm probably going to take some creative liberties as well in the interest of creating some pieces that are a little different than the captions I've already made and posted here.

I think that's it for now. I'm trying to get some new stuff made before the end of this week, so here's hoping there will be some new caps for all of you to enjoy in a few days.

Misinformed


I had some unexpected free time today, so I was able to finish a reader request caption ahead of schedule.
