So, it's happened! Not only has the first chapter I wrote from scratch for Leather and Lace (Chapter 3) reached 200 views, but almost all of the first seven chapters are actually over 150 views on Inkbunny now, and the story as a whole has almost 150 views on AO3, with honestly more views than I expected on Furaffinity.
HUGE thanks to all of you that have stuck around for the story, I know SFW doesn't hold up as well, or get as much traction. For anyone discovering the story because of this journal, welcome to the show, and I hope you love it!
Now for the terms of the raffle! The raffle will close one month (1 Oct) from today (1 Sept). I have a few eligibility requirements, mostly because I really want to hear from you all, and get some conversations started.
To enter the raffle: 1) Add a comment on your favorite chapter and let me know what or who you enjoyed most about that chapter. (If, and ONLY if, you commented on any of the chapters before this Journal was posted, congrats, your comment automatically fills this requirement, even if it doesn't match the requested subject!) 2) Add a comment on this post with details about your character, and the character you'd like to be paired with them. Reference Sheets of all 6 options are included in this post. ~~AND~~ 3)Tell me your favorite character from the story at large, even if its not one of mine! (this is just for my curiousity)
THIS WILL EARN YOU ONE(1) ENTRY
Watching me is not a requirement, but if you like the story, I hope you will!
An extra entry can be had by signal boosting this raffle with a journal of your own. The extra entry will only take effect once the main entry is earned.
This CAN be entered on IB and FA simultaneously HOWEVER you will need unique comments on the chapters in order to be eligible. (you can obviously submit the same character for your entry)
I will also offer +1 additional entry for 'prolific commentary'. This will be an arbitrary reward based on my own judgement. The entire point of this raffle is because I want to hear from you guys about what you are/aren't enjoying about the story, what stands out to you, what is fun, and what falls a little flat. So by leaving additional comments, or particularly good conversational ones, you can earn this bonus entry! You have no idea how I am excited to respond to all of these comments,
Now, to be clear, I obviously won't guarantee that things you may or may not like will change the future of Leather and Lace (and its already planned sequels), since I have a pretty strong outline/timeline for these two that I really like, and reasons for things that will happen that won't be immediately apparent. That said, what you guys say might influence some of the way some of it is developed, detailed, or delivered. This story is first the story I want to tell, but it absolutely is something I want you all to enjoy.
So all in all, you can earn up to 3 entries per platform, for a total of 6.

For those of you waiting on Chapter 8, I am sorry for the delay, I hit a creativity wall, and had some IRL distractions, but I as of last week I have jumped back into the writing, and my goal is to have Ch.8 released around the time the raffle ends, fingers crossed!
I would use my femboy mantis Hibi https://inkbunny.net/submissionsviewall.php?rid=d9fa29d... perhaps playing with Jameis rubbing the rambunctious bunnys good boy button with one hand while jerking him off with the other x3 My current faves in the story are Jameis for being a flirty ball of energy and Megan for being a good bat that deserves hugs and headpats who just seems like a fun and chill person to be around. They remind me of my best friend from highschool a lot.

The irony xD as I noted in your comment on Ch6, Megan is Verb's and while Jameis is my creation, he is kind of Verb's fault. The concept of Jameis started as a joke, but he has turned out to be a really fun character to write for, though I can only handle his bubbliness in short bursts haha.
Your entry is logged, and don't forget you can do a journal boost for a bonus entry!

Star is a absolute bottom and likes being tied up/restrained (hence the full body latex outfit).

If I win, I would pick Jameis or Chelsea to be paired with a leopard hybrid named Kain (I don't have any art for Kain). For sfw, J & K are sharing an Italian cream soda at the Cavallo Italian Restaurant, while C & K would be cuddling while doing a nerdy hobby. For nsfw, a shower scene with Chels, or using a toy on Jameis while he is being stuffed. Also, Jameis, Nona, and Megan are my favs so far. And I love that we get more interactions with the side characters in the later chapters, which let us see not only more people, but also get to see more about the world the story takes place in.
