Website / Season Three Update

Hey my lovies! Update time! Season Three is now scheduled to be released on 2.29.16 with season four following in Fall 2016.

Have you checked out our website yet? If you haven't...WTF! j/k. But seriously, what are you waiting for! www.dru-maddoX.com or www.austinryan.xxx

Annnnnnnnnnnnnd I'm Back!!

Hello my lovelies!!! Did you miss me?!?

First off, I have to apologize for the quite extensive radio silence on anything and everything dru-maddoX.com. Lots of things were happening but they're all resolved now and I'm getting geared up to write season three (finally!)

I'm keeping most every original story line intact with just a few minor changes here and there so far. Most of the changes have been in the directions each of our mainstay characters (Dru, Reese, Kyle, Austin, April & Courtney) are ultimately headed this season as well as some of the returning (Jeremy, May, Khayman, Marlow & Nicholas) and new characters (Lady Jane). I think you're all going to really like Lady Jane!! :-)

While I wrote episode 14 all the way back in September 2014, it needs to undergo a little re-write to account for some of the character changes. It'll probably get a new title as well. Never was to keen on "Full Disclosure" anyways.

The biggest overall change, which you'll have to wait a while to get resolved sadly, is the season ending cliffhanger. I'm keeping the original lighthearted cliffhanger in place, but now it'll be a dual cliffhanger that will set up the stories for season four!

Look for regular updates as I get started on writing new episodes of dru-maddoX.com later this week! Get yourselves ready..season three will be unlike seasons one and two. This season, we're venturing into the dark, ugly side of the porn industry. Suffice it to say, nothing will ever be the same by the time this season is over! Third seasons of TV shows are typically the season shows re-define themselves and go in bolder directions. dru-maddoX.com will be no different :-)

I can't wait to share this new season with all of you! If you haven't read seasons one and two yet, now's the perfect time to get caught up! Sept 22nd will be here before we know it!!

Until next time!

Update

Hey there boys and girls!

So, suffice to say, surprise! I'm behind schedule....again! I know, I know, I fail! This time is totally not my fault tho! Work sent me to Australia for 18 days, which ate up a lot of my scheduled writing time.

HOWEVER....

Progress has been made as I'm officially putting the final touches on the season three cover art, which is very different from previous seasons!

AND....

I'm officially beginning the writing of Episode 14 TODAY!!!! I'm still liking the overall arc planned for season three, tho I did spend the past couple days changing up how the season will begin. I was going to slow-play the whole Marlow storyline, but decided to fire on all cylinders right out of the gate instead, giving me more time to play with this storyline and build up to everything else I have planned.

I'm still, believe it or not, aiming for a late Oct / early Nov release for season three, assuming I get the 3 episodes done this week that I had planned. I think I can do it. No, I WILL do it! You, the readers of the show, don't deserve to wait any longer than necessary!

Alright, with all that being said, time to get going on the writing! Look for the standard episode title and mini-synopsis post once episode 14 is complete!

I look forward to sharing the continuing adventures of the dru-maddoX.com saga with you soon!

Until next time....

dru-maddoX.com: Season THREE

Hey everyone!

Again, so sorry for the radio silence of late. While I have not yet begun writing season three yet, I do have the entire season mapped out and should be getting started on it within the next couple weeks.

Season three will consist of 7 episodes, just like season two, and definitely take a bit of a darker, more serious tone as I think it's time to tackle some of the stereotypical subjects that would be expected from this type of show.

What I will say, for now, is that I'm targeting late October / early November for the release and that, as of now, the working plan is to shoot a unique cover art vs licensing a stock image. That shoot is slated to happen the second week of Sept.

We're also toying around with the idea of doing a promo campaign shoot, that I think could be a lot of fun!

Look for more regular posts moving forward as we finally get the wheels spinning on the third season of dru-maddoX.com.

Until next time!

Season Three: Sneak Peek (CONTAINS POSSIBLE SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT READ SEASONS ONE AND TWO)

Hey everyone!!!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry for the radio silence over the past couple months. Work and various other projects have kept me rather busy, but I have not forgotten about all of you, nor have I slowed down on the progress of crafting season three's storylines. 

If you had told me when I started putting this show together back in March of 2013 that one year later I'd have two seasons published already AND be gearing up to start writing season three, I would've probably laughed and said, yeah, right. This whole experience has been nothing but pure fun for me and I'm incredibly humbled and touched by the truly positive feedback I've received over the last year. Thank you to everyone who has been reading the series and offering their support. I'm hoping to have a VERY BIG announcement on the future of dru-maddoX.com in the coming weeks to share with all of you.

In the meantime however, I thought it might be fun to give all of you a small glimpse into what you can expect from season three! This season will definitely have some darker undertones to it compared to previous seasons, but those undertones are result of what I'm hoping will be some truly powerful / meaningful stories that have been building over the past two seasons.

Here are just a few of the exciting things you can expect in season three:

- Reese is going to have a rough go of things. He does not handle the break-up with Dru well and makes some reckless choices as result. We're going to see him go through a lot of ups and downs the entire season, as well as have the show's first ever completely separate storyline from all of our other characters. We're going to really see Reese struggle this season with his identity. He's getting a lot more attention after winning big at the Golden Cock Awards and how he handles himself and all that attention may send him down the wrong path. We're also going to see him rebound from Dru very quickly with an unlikely partner.

- Dru, on the other hand, knowing that the break-up with Reese is entirely his fault, will have to deal with those emotions while having to deal with the sneaky take-over of his company by Trenton Marlow. Prepare yourselves for an all out battle over dru-maddoX.com. This is truly going to be something epic and most certainly dirty. There will be a quick plan put into place by Dru/Austin to regain control of the site, but not in a way you might expect.

- Kyle is going to push forward as a director for the site. "The Boyfriend Series," which was referenced in the second season finale, will become his baby. This will offer fans of the site a glimpse into the personal lives of the star's real life relationships as well as create a new style of filmed scene. Kyle's biggest obstacles however will be getting Austin to do a scene with him for this series, as Austin doesn't really want fans to see the real him, as well as Kyle having to accept the fact that Dru/Reese are no longer a couple and no matter how hard he tries, he's not going to be able to change that. What Kyle won't be prepared for is Reese's willingness to do this series with his new bf.

- Austin is going to spend most of the season doing what he does best: repair relationships and clear hurdles out of his way. He'll be keeping an eye on Reese, not really liking the new crowd he's hanging out with. He's also going to go toe-to-toe with Marlow, since he knows him better than anyone else does. Austin will ultimately play a key role in throwing a monkey wrench into Marlow's master plan. The biggest question of the season will be why is Marlow doing all of this. Why did he hire Nicholas Rion to secure the majority ownership of dru-maddoX.com. The answer may not be what you're expecting and what you certainly won't be expecting is how long he's had this plan in the works. Austin also has what could be considered one of the biggest scenes of his career ahead of him as he and Khayman Scott film their big scene as result of Marlow losing his bet with Dru at the Golden Cock Awards.

- April and May are going to have their hands full this season. Since May's firm represents both companies involved in this conflict, expect to see some strain put on April and May's relationship. We're also going to see April cross some lines that we would never expect her to cross. This will be big enough that it could not only cost April her job/relationship, it could also lead to her getting dis-barred. We're also going to see the biggest strain yet on her relationship with Dru. Hell hath no fury like a lesbian scorned when April finds out Dru signed the deal with Nicholas Rion without having her review it first. 

- Courtney is just going to be Courtney this season. She and Jeremy will continue on hosting The DL and sharing insider information on what's happening with the site. We're also going to see her work her feminine magic on Nicholas Rion, trying to fish information out of him that could be helpful in regaining control of the site and finding out what he knows about Marlow's master plan.

Returning Characters that you can expect to see in season three are:

May Flowers

Jeremy Lockwood

Khayman Scott

Nicholas Rion

Trenton Marlow

Jesse Hillinger

Season Three will be comprised of seven episodes, just like season two. It was originally going to be six, but when I was mapping everything out, seven just felt like the right amount to tell all the stories that will need to be told. I can tell you right now, with 100% confidence, episode 18 (the fifth episode of the season three), will be the single, most powerful, episode of the series to date. Something very, VERY, big is going to happen that changes the landscape of the show and drastically changes the course of one of our main characters. Episode 18 will be the first episode that I won't be revealing anything about the episode. No mini-synopsis, not even the title, as that would give away what's planned. I truly want this episode to be a surprise :-)

I think that's safely all I can reveal about season three currently, without ruining any surprises. There will be a lot of twists and turns ahead. I can't wait!

Now's a fantastic time to catch up on seasons one and two if you aren't caught up already! Tell all of your friends to check the series out as well. Let's all spread the word about dru-maddoX.com as far and wide as we can! 

Look for announcements regarding the cover art and release date over the next month. 

Until next time! :-D

Season Two: Behind the Scenes (CONTAINS SPOILERS - DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T READ SEASON TWO YET)

With Season Two now complete, I thought it might be fun to share some of the "behind the scenes" drama that occurred during the writing of season two.

- When it was decided to keep Ian Andrews around as the villain for the first half of season two, it through a real monkey wrench into the plans for how the movie battle between Dru/Austin & Reese/Kyle was slated to play out. Primarily, the arrest of Kyle is what I never took into account when I was mapping it all out. I knew from the initial outlines of season two that Kyle would be arrested, but I had always planned on it being at the end of episode 8, knowing episode 9 was going to be all about Dru/Austin's movie and episode 8 was going to have wrapped up everything on Reese/Kyle's movie. Things didn't really play out as I originally thought it would and I had to make random changes on the fly to fit all the story in that I wanted to get in there.

- One thing that never changed was how the Ian/Austin conflict was going to be resolved. I always knew one way or another that Austin was going to break his house arrest and go after Ian. (This story was the actual reason that Austin's house arrest didn't end as originally scheduled in season one, episode 6). May was never factored into those original plans, but I ended up really liking how she played into the whole story line. It also provided a great way of adding more conflict between her and April, which I had been looking to do. For a brief minute, there had been the idea of once Austin arrived at the hotel, he'd find a note that told him to go to a nearby video arcade and that's where Ian would finally get what he wanted. Up until the minute I was writing Austin arriving at the hotel, I didn't know whether the final confrontation was going to happen there or at the video arcade. The deciding factor was simply looking at the page count. I knew this episode was already longer than most others, due to all the story that needed to happen in this episode. So, the final confrontation played out at the hotel, as originally planned.

- I always knew that Reese/Kyle were going to win the movie battle. I don't think I ever even gave a second thought to the possibility of Dru/Austin winning.

- Dru/Austin's movie concept eluded them both in the first couple episodes for one simple reason: it was eluding me as well! I came up with Reese/Kyle's concept early on, but for the life of me couldn't come up with something that worked well enough for Dru/Austin or was different enough from what Reese/Kyle were doing. The concept actually came to me very randomly, when I thought "From Top to Bottom" would be a good episode title. That simple thought is how Dru/Austin's concept was conceived.

- The biggest question mark I even had with the Dru/Austin movie was: Would Dru be in the movie or not. That was a tough one for me to figure out. I had reasons to do it and reasons not to do it. Once I decided to have Dru be in Austin's movie, the idea came up that maybe I should put Kyle in Reese's movie as well. It gave me a lot to play with in terms of all the boys' relationships and how these movies could put strain on them. The biggest problem with putting Kyle into the movie was the whole getting arrested thing. Kyle couldn't be in the movie if he was in jail. It's also why Jeremy got "sick" out of nowhere, to make room in the scene with Reese/Brody.

- Jesse Hillinger was originally named Donny Grey. I just wasn't really feeling the name "Donny," so I changed it about a month after the character was originally written, to Jesse.

- Look for May Flowers, Jesse Hillinger and Nicholas Rion to have expanded roles in season three.

- One great thing the movie battle provided me with an easy opportunity to do was to introduce new recurring boys for the site. I knew fairly early on that Austin/Reese/Jeremy and whoever else was left could only be in so many scenes together. Austin/Dru's concept gave me the chance to bring in several new characters all at once. Will we get to be knowing all of these boys like our main characters? Most likely not. But, they'll give me plenty of new scene options in the coming seasons. (FUN FACT: Season three will feature a first for the series. It'll be the first time a "scene" is filmed that does not include any of our main characters in it).

- Jeremy's role was expanded in season two simply because I felt that his being in 4 of the 6 episodes from season one, I should define him a bit more. He didn't even have a last name. I put some thought into his character and how to best further integrate him into the show. (FUN FACT: I'm a huge fan of TV's "The Vampire Diaries." His name is a combination of two of my favorite characters on that show. Jeremy Gilbert and Tyler Lockwood. Hence, Jeremy Lockwood).

- "The DL" was added to interACTIVE to give Courtney something to do in season two. I had tossed around several different ideas for her, but never really fell in love with any of them. I added Jeremy as her co-host to better introduce his character, thinking he would be an excellent balance for Courtney. I think it worked out. While "The DL" was featured heavily in season two, it'll be scaled back moving forward and used only when needed, versus being in every episode just for the sake of being there.

- I knew from the start of the season I was going to be breaking up one of the couples. I just didn't know which one. I had pros and cons for either couple, Dru/Reese/Austin/Kyle, so you might be surprised how I decided. I literally flipped a coin. Dru/Reese lost. :-(

- Brody McIver was an interesting character. I never really quite figured out who he was and what the ultimate objective was with him. As the season went along, I had Brody flirt with Reese and make it very apparent he liked him. It's kinda strange. I actually found myself getting annoyed by Brody as I wrote for him. You may have noticed that after episode 7, he seemed to speak less and less. I knew I couldn't just write him off, as he played a key role in Reese/Kyle's movie. There was an initial plan to bring Brody back in episode 13 to wrap his story up and then write him off the show, but that obviously didn't happen. So let's just say he went off to compete in a surfing competition....somewhere far, far away :-)

- Episode 11 "Welcome to TRiX" was originally intended to be a back-door pilot/potential spin-off sister series to run concurrently with dru-maddoX.com. It wasn't until I reached the writing of that episode that I made the decision not to make TRiX its own show, but rather just a solid one-off episode. I got very real with myself in the knowledge that I barely have the time to pull off each season of dru-maddoX.com by my targeted release dates. How the hell would I ever find the time to write two series?

- "Welcome to TRiX" is the only reason season two is seven episodes long instead of six. I included a 7th episode solely for the purpose of not taking anything away from the dru-maddoX.com season by only having 5 episodes focusing on it and using the 6th episode to launch the new show. By the time I had finished outlining everything and before I knew I wasn't going to go forward with the second series, the extra episode had become an intricate part of the dru-maddoX.com story line. I lucked out with the way it ultimately all came together and was able to use the TRiX scenario and story to move dru-maddoX.com's stories forward.

- Original outlines actually had Nicholas Rion and even possibly Shane Matthews being Austin's brothers. It just didn't work or make any logical sense to do that, so Shane became a former employer of Austin's back in the day (which I never actually revealed in EP 11) and Nicholas went off in a completely different direction, becoming the advocate for Trenton Marlow's devious plan to take control of dru-maddoX.com.

- I knew I was taking a huge risk by making the series even more serialized that it was in season one. Especially taking away a good amount of the humor and adding more drama. I'll be very honest as to why I did this. I've said it before, I'm just not a comedy writer. I love a good dramatic setting. I needed to find a way to keep me interested in writing the show and this was my solution. I'm hoping everyone is enjoying the changes as much as I am!

- The idea to bring Trenton Marlow back into the fold was a rather random one. I always knew one day he might pop back up somehow, but I never thought he would return so soon. I figured with the Golden Cock Awards happening and Five Star Enterprises being the top company out there, it seemed logical to have him there. I took that opportunity to introduce new competition for Austin, the guy who replaced him at the top after he went to jail, Khayman Scott. Gotta say, I really do love that name! (SPOILER ALERT: While Khayman didn't appear all that much in season two, look for him to play a much larger role in season three, especially since Trenton lost the Best Website bet with Dru and has to loan Khayman to Dru for a scene with Austin. That scene is slated as the biggest scene the show has ever done. Two titans are colliding - it has to be something grand!).

- I knew what the cliffhanger for season two was going to be very early on. I just didn't know who exactly was going to be on the other end of the phone when Dru called to say, "We've got a deal." I figured that I could come up with the who later, knowing at the very least, that phone call is what I was building the entire season towards. While some have said I coped out on the outcome of season one's cliffhanger, I can guarantee that the outcome of season two's cliffhanger, will have far more consequences than season one's. (IN MY DEFENSE: I may have resolved the Kyle STD scare by the 4th page of the first episode of season two, using a simple scene, but the impact it had on Kyle and Austin and having to continue dealing with Ian's madness was really what I was going for all along, not so much Kyle having to deal with the actual STD itself.) (FUN FACT: I can already tell you what the season three cliffhanger will be. It's weird to say that I knew season three's cliffhanger, long before I knew season two's).

- Believe it or not, I actually get a good number of messages from readers of the series (which I'm truly surprised and humbled by). The biggest thing I heard following season one was why were all of the "scenes" for the site only one-on-one scenes. Why hadn't I done any 3-ways or groups scenes, etc. My response has been the same from day one. All in good time. I didn't want to do every type of scene out there in the first season. Most porn sites when they first launch normally only do one-on-one scenes (as they're cheaper, easier and logical considering they don't have a huge pool of talent to draw from yet). Once the movie battle story line was conceived, I knew that would be a fantastic opportunity to do some of these more special scenes readers were wanting to see. The marquee double penetration scene with Reese was the first one conceived for Reese/Kyle's movie. I built everything around that.

- There had always been a plan in place to introduce Reese's mother early in the second season. I wanted to have her disapprove of Reese's being in porn and ultimately have Dru be the one to repair the relationship between Reese and his mother. Every time I slotted it into an outline for an episode, I found it to be the one thing left that I didn't add into the script. I tried three different times and never added it in. I guess that was my way of telling myself: "hey, knucklehead, it's a bad idea, don't waste everyone's time!" I did finally introduce Reese's mom in EP 11. Expect to see some more of her moving forward. I think I was literally about a season ahead with her story line as now I can find easy ways of adding it into season three. We'll see what happens.

- For the Golden Cock Awards - I figured out the categories and who was going to be nominated, but never had determined who was going to win what. I figured those would be game time decisions, having the winners be the best options for moving stories forward or creating new conflicts. I did always know however, that Austin would make his first public appearance at the awards following the early ending of his house arrest.

- I really do love April/Courtney scenes. I really need to find a way to have them interact more!

- Courtney didn't appear at all in two episodes this season, mainly because there just wasn't a need for her. I really do love her character but sometimes trying to find ways of adding her into story lines proves challenging. I'll never just add a character to a scene for the sake of doing it. If they don't have a purpose in whatever stories are going on, you just won't see them.

- I really loved the progression of Austin's character in season two. Every story line I came up with, I immediately thought, how do I add Austin into this. Austin has finally evolved into the character i always imagined him to be from the beginning. It just took a little longer to get him there was all :-)

- I LOVE the cover art for season two. I think it fit the season's theme perfectly! I already had an image picked out for season three, but someone I know wants to try and become the season three cover boy. We'll see what happens!

- There was A LOT of back and forth on how the season two cliffhanger was going to be played out. I ultimately knew it was going to lead to a battle for control of dru-maddoX.com in season three. All I knew was that after Ian's story line was wrapped up in EP 10, I didn't have a villain anymore. With Episodes 11 and 12 focusing solely on the Golden Cock Awards, it bought be some time to figure out who the new villain would be and why. Once I decided on Trenton Marlow as the next villain, I slowly re-introduced him to remind you about him, but not really indicate that he's the one behind Nicholas Rion's investment approach towards Dru.

LOOKING AHEAD TO SEASON THREE:

While I'm still in the early stages of figuring out season three, a few things I know for sure you can look forward to:

- It's gonna be a dirty, all out war, for control of dru-maddoX.com. Expect the unexpected as there there's A LOT more going on that currently meets the eye! There's going to be a big mystery story line for a good portion of the season that I'm very excited about!

- We've only seen just the beginning of Trenton Marlow's master plan.

- April & May's professional rivalry will heat back up and reach a level no one could ever have expected. This time however, Dru may be the one who ultimately pays the price.

- Austin Ryan / Khayman Scott....enough said.

- Can Dru find a way to repair the damage to his relationship with Reese or are their days as a couple truly over? (Honestly, even I haven't decided on that one yet)

- Kyle will continue directing scenes for the site. It'll be interesting when he ultimately wants to direct Austin in his new video series, "The Boyfriend Series."

- How will Austin fully re-adapt to normal life following the end of his house arrest?

- Can Reese really still work with Dru or will the pain of their break-up be too much for him to handle?

- We will sadly say goodbye to a character we have known from the beginning of the show in season three. You will be very surprised as to who it is and especially as to why.

7 Days Away!!!

One short week until the release of dru-maddoX.com season two!! #excited :-)

Only 9 days away!!!

Happy Sunday everyone!!!

We're just 9 short days away from the release of dru-maddoX.com season two! Are you excited!?!?! I know I am!!

Everything is complete with the writing / proofing, etc of season two. She's ready to go! All I have left is to right a brief introduction, which I'll be doing today.

I'm already hard at work on the arcs for season three, which I'm very excited by! Season three will feature a full season mystery arc that I think will propel the show even further than I could've imagined when I first began developing this concept. I'm also loving the direction that not only the show is taking, but the paths the characters are following and where things will head each of them.

I do have to admit, I'm a little nervous about reaction to season two, as the show, to me, is very different from season one. I fixed what I considered to be a lot of structural flaws and moved the show towards being more serialized than stand-alone episodes.

I've given advanced copies to a select few people that I completely trust to tell me "this is good / this is crap" and their reactions to season two have blown my mind with how much they love it. All have said it far surpasses season one in terms of writing, stories and overall excitement. I sent one person just the first four episodes of season two and he read all four back-to-back, being unable to put it down. My dream reaction there! He was even pestering me virtually daily for the next three episodes, despite my telling him, at the time, they hadn't been written yet - lol. That answer was not well received - haha.

Tell all of your friends to go buy season one and get caught up before season two hits the cyber bookshelf on Tuesday, March 18th!

Cheers

Episode 13: NEW Title and Mini-Synopsis

Hey everyone! I'm very happy to announce that the writing of season two is now complete! I'm so excited to have the season completed and am even more excited to share it all with you on Tuesday, March 18th!

Season two is very different from season one. There's a lot more story crammed into each episode and the stakes have been raised dramatically. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

Below is the short mini-synopsis of episode 13. It's a little short mainly because there are a lot of surprise story lines through-out the season that I haven't referenced at all in the previous mini-synopsis'. Episode 13 heavily focuses on those, so I can't really say much without giving anything away :-)


Episode 13: "Say Something"

Desperate times call for desperate measures! With Dru taking some much needed down time, Austin is left in charge of the site; April & May show some tough love to one of the boys; Kyle and Courtney plot the site's next creative phase; Reese learns of a skeleton in Austin's closet; Austin has a surprise for Kyle; Something weighs heavily on Dru's mind as he contemplates what the right next move is for the site.


Now that the writing of season two is complete, the conversion/proofing phase begins right away. While I'm a couple weeks behind on where I'd like to have been with everything, the March 18th release date remains solid. :-)

Don't forget to check back tomorrow, Monday, March 3rd, to learn how you can get yourself a FREE copy of season two! :-)

Episode 12: Title and Mini-Synopsis

Hey everyone!

Episode 12 is now complete! This was a fun episode as it focuses on the Golden Cock Awards which has been referenced for pretty much all of season two. Below is the mini-synopsis:

Episode 12: "The Golden Cocks"

The Golden Cock Awards have finally arrived! Stars will be born and hearts will be broken as the awards are handed out; May sees something she can never forget; Ian inadvertently helps Austin without meaning to; With the quick ascension of Five Star's Khayman Scott to the top, is Austin's "top star" title in jeopardy? Trenton Marlow makes a friendly bet with Dru; As one relationship begins, will another come to an end?

Up next is Episode 13, currently untitled. It'll serve as the season finale for season two. I really couldn't tell you much about this episode yet as all I currently know about it is what the cliffhanger will be! Let's see what happens!

Until next time!

Episode 11: Title and Mini-Synopsis

Hey everyone!

Episode 11 is finally complete! I know, I know, it's been like a month since I wrote a new episode. Work got crazy busy, what can I say? But, it's completed now and that's what counts! :-) Find the mini-synopsis below:

Episode 11: "Welcome to TRiX"

Excitement is in the air at the Golden Cock Awards Nominees Party in West Hollywood; Austin attempts to repair the damage he feels he caused to April & May's relationship; Dru finds himself in a mini-crisis with few ways out; Reese meets Dru's ex and Five Star's newest "it" guy Khayman Scott and is not impressed by either; Kyle wants to continue directing; Dru receives a mysterious offer.


While I've spoken about it for months now, this episode was designed to be a possible backdoor spin-off series. Unfortunately, I've decided not to go that route and this episode will be stand-alone. I scaled back a lot of the elements that were specific to the new series and made this episode feel more like a dru-maddoX.com episode as opposed to TRiX episode guest starring the dru-maddoX.com characters, as it was originally slated to be.

Episode 12 is currently titled: "The Golden Cocks" and is slated to be written next weekend.

Until next time!

Writing of Episode 11 is now underway!!!

Following a much longer delay than I would've preferred, writing of episode 11 is now underway!

I've fully committed to the new arc that will change things up a bit for the show, while keeping it fresh and exciting. I knew early on with this show that it could go stale or flat, very quickly. So I'm continuously trying to find new ways of keeping the show intriguing while remaining true to its core.

I'm very excited about what's to come and what's going to happen with all the characters you've hopefully, come to love!

Look for a mini-synopsis of Episode 11 to go up soon (by tomorrow at the very latest).

Cheers

Happy Superbowl Sunday!!

Hey everyone,

Here's wishing everyone a Happy Superbowl Sunday! I personally will be cheering for my hometown Denver Broncos to win the big game today!

Quick update to where Season Two is at:

I made some changes to the plans for the remainder of season two's final three episodes, which I think will take the show in a new, more fun direction! I came up with an extended arc that actually started in episode 10 and will carry on for most, if not all of season three.

I thought it would be a lot of fun to add a little mystery to the show, so you can expect some lies, deceit, back-stabbing and big shocks in the episodes to come. The show will however, remain true to it's core during all of this.

What do you guys think? Are you ready for some mysterious happenings in the house? :-D

The writing of episode 11 is slated to take place next weekend, with episodes 12 and 13 scheduled for the holiday weekend after. I'll keep you updated to any changes.

Season Two still looks to be on track for it's March 18th 2014 release date!

Hello, Hello!

Hey everyone!

SOOOOOO sorry for the radio silence the past couple weeks, been crazy busy with work and traveling.

I was absolutely amazed to find out about season one's first UK sales recently! Hello UK fans! I very much look forward to hearing what you think about the show!

Sales here in the US are also up lately, which I truly do appreciate. When I set out to write this show, it was mostly just for my own fun. I never intended for it to become a huge hit or that I'd make a lot of money off it. I enjoy writing and thought this was a very fun way to make my hobby that much more interesting.

Here's where we stand on everything season two:
- Four of the seven episodes are now complete.
- Episodes 11 and 12 are pretty much mapped out. Both should be fun episodes as episodes 7-10 are kind of on the darker side of things, I thought the show needed to lighten back up, similar to season one's style.
- Still have absolutely no clue what episode 13 is going to be about. Normally, I'd be worried about this, but the same thing happened in season one. I had no clue what episode 6 was going to be about, then I just sat down and wrote it, wrapping up whatever stories needed to be wrapped up. Episode 13 will prob be very similar. In both cases however, I knew what the cliffhanger was going to be. I've been told season one's cliffhanger was very left field. Wait til you see what season two's is going to be! I'm very excited to see what stories it will bring for season three!
- Season Two is still on track for the March 18th 2014 release date.
- The core characters of the potential spin-off series will still be introduced in episode 11, titled "Welcome to TRiX." It's still undecided if TRiX will carry on as a sister series to dru-maddoX.com or what will happen with it. Either way, it'll be a fun episode that will feature the show's very first song mash-up and dance routine. I won't say what the mash-up is going to be, but I'll give you a hint: Both songs have "balls" :-)

The ultimate goal for season two is to have the final three episodes written by February 20th. That'll give me about a month to go through and make the e-reader conversion happen and do my final proofs.

I'll keep you all posted on the status of episode 11's writing as soon as it starts!

Until next time!

Episode 10: NEW Title & Mini-Synopsis

Hey everyone!

Episode 10 is now complete. This is a big episode as it wraps up many of the story lines from the first half of the season and starts the story lines to close out the season. This is also the longest episode of the series, coming in at 50 pages. There was just a whole lot to cram into this episode! Below is the mini-synopsis for episode 10:

Episode 10: "Revelations"

Tensions begin to mount as the nominations for the Golden Cock awards are announced; A winner is crowned in the movie battle between Dru/Austin and Reese/Kyle; April thinks May is up to something; Someone new sets their eyes on Dru; The site needs to make some serious financial decisions about its future; How far will Austin go to be rid of Ian once and for all?

I know it'll be a few weeks before I'm able to get around to writing episode 11, which is a good thing for me as this episode still needs to be worked out plot wise. Episode 11 is a backdoor pilot episode for another potential series I'm considering writing concurrently with dru-maddoX.com. It's being designed as a backdoor pilot or stand alone episode should I decide not to move forward with the new series.

Episode 11 is currently titled: "Welcome to TRiX"

Until next time!

Writing of episode 10 is underway!

After MANY different delays, episode 10 is finally sorted out and writing is underway. In an ideal world, I'll get it done today, but we'll see.

Episode 10 is a complex episode that wraps up numerous story lines and begins all new ones. There was a lot of coordination required to make it all work out, as well as laying some ground work for episode 11, which will feature a backdoor pilot for another possible series I'm considering writing alongside dru-maddoX.com. More details on that coming soon.

Episode 10 also has a new title: "Revelations"

Look for the mini-synopsis soon!

Episode 9: Title & Mini-Synopsis

Hey everyone!

Episode 9 is now complete. Whew! I'm very happy this one is done! There was so much happening in this one that I kinda dreaded it! Unfortunately, so much happens in this episode as result of what happens in episode 8, that the synopsis isn't really going offer much insight into the episode. I wouldn't want to ruin any of the surprises for you! :-)

Episode 9: "From Top to Bottom Part II"

Cameras finally start rolling on Austin's movie; Dru must decide whether he's going to do something he said he'd never do; Jeremy's sudden illness leaves Reese and Kyle scrambling to find a replacement in their marquee scene; Austin appears on "The DL" with Kyle as special guest co-host; Relationships begin to come into question; April's hiding a secret; Austin turns to an unlikely source for help.

I look forward to episode 10, which will see many story lines from the first 3 episodes of the season come to a close and start all new ones that will finish out the season. Episode 10 is currently titled: "And the Winner Is..."

Until next time!

Episode 8: NEW TITLE & Mini Synopsis

Hey everyone!

Episode 8 is now complete. Shocker, the title changed back to the original title after I made a couple more changes while writing this episode. This is a very sexual, yet emotionally charged episode.

Season two most definitely seems to be moving away from the comedic side season one had and is focusing on the heart and emotion of all the characters as they face a wide variety of challenges.

I'm still very excited about season two. It remains the same show at it's core, but really dives into the characters even more than before.

Without further rambling, here's the mini synopsis for episode 8:

Episode 8: "Cherry Poppin' Part I"

Reese/Kyle's movie goes into production as Dru/Austin continue to struggle with scenes/casting choices; Courtney helps April with a difficult decision; Austin may be pushing Dru to hard; All four boys have serious discussions over scene partners and the impact it's having on their relationships; Dru makes his first appearance on "The DL"; Ian's obsession leads to a heartbreaking moment for one of the boys.

The plan is to write Episode 9, the second half of this two-part episode, next weekend. It's currently titled "From Top to Bottom Part II"

Update

Hey everyone,

Very happy to announce that I'm figured out what needed to be done to make episodes 8 & 9 work out in their reversed state and will get started on writing episode 8 this weekend.

Episode 8 did undergo another title change, now it's being called "From Top to Bottom Part I"

While figuring out episodes 8 & 9, I also made the decision to switch episodes 11 & 12 as well. Episode 12 was originally slated to be the crossover / back-door pilot episode for another gay themed, currently untitled drama/mystery series I'm thinking about launching. That will now be episode 11 instead. This crossover episode will introduce us to two of the main characters and two or three recurring characters. The rest of the cast will be introduced in the first episode, should the new series move forward.

I've VERY happy with the direction of season two. I think it will by far and away blow season one out of the water (and I really liked season one!).

I've got some preliminary ideas on season three's direction, but absolutely nothing has been locked in stone yet. Once I figure out where season three will go, I'll have a better idea of how to craft episode 13, which is currently slated to be the final episode of season two.

I can't wait to share season two with all of you on March 18th 2014!

If you haven't purchased season one yet, now's the time. You can be all caught up and ready to go when season two is released!

Cheers

Second 5 Star Reader Review!!

Just noticed a second reader review! Another 5 stars!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Definitely worth the read! December 1, 2013

By Chris

I came across this and did not expect it to be so well written and so funny considering the subject matter. Yes, there are boys on camera but the reader gets the chance to see just how much goes on after the camera cuts. I definitely recommend this for anyone who isn't too prudish for a touching and funny series about a group of people that start a business together.

If you've read dru-maddoX.com season one - please write a review on the amazon.com page! I'd love to hear your feedback! Good or bad!!

Puttin' on the Brakes!

Hello hello everyone!

So, while I had hoped the next post would be saying episode 8 was completed, here's the mini synopsis, sadly I had to slam on the brakes for episode 8 as I realized I had a fairly big structural flaw with episodes 8 and 9 actually.

In a nutshell, the kinda jaw-dropping cliffhanger at the end of episode 7, which I've known about since the initial conception of season two's arcs, made the plans for episode 8 virtually impossible. In the back of my head, I thought I could just work around it, but when I was laying everything out, it just didn't work. I also need a little more time to introduce the new recurring characters better.

The original idea to fix this mess I got myself into, was to just flip flop episodes 8 and 9, focusing on Dru/Austin's movie first, then come back to Reese/Kyle's movie in episode 9. But then I started thinking, why even separate the movies at all, why not just mash everything together into a two-part episode instead?

So that's the new plan - the show's first two-part episode. I know I talked about doing that in the season one, but logistically it didn't make sense to do that with episodes 4 and 5 (for those of you that have read it, it just wouldn't have worked, right?)

But in this instance, it totally makes sense and I'm running with it.

This two-parter, whose titles are now going to be reversed, with "Role Reversal" becoming episode 8 and "Cherry Poppin'" becoming episode 9, will more than likely be the most sexually charged episodes yet. There will most likely be at least 3 "scenes" from each movie in these two episodes.

I do have to be very careful with these next two episodes, as they are the catalyst for the rest of the season's stories, which also carry over into the first episode or two of season three.

Here's a fun fact of the day for you: I HATE writing the "scenes" for this show. I absolute dread them when it comes time to write them. The big scene in episode 3 with Austin/Reese was 9 pages of torture for me. That scene was a big part of the reason why you didn't see anymore "scenes" in episodes 4-6. While I always try to make those scenes move the story forward and not just be there for the sake of being there, I still despise them with a passion. For all 4 boys, this movie battle tests them in so many different ways and ultimately will change the course for all of them.

I dread the "scenes" for these next two episodes, but know it's a must to move all of their characters forward!

So the new plan is to write part one next weekend and then part two the weekend after. That'll put me at the half-way mark for the season, keeping in mind that season two will have seven episodes instead of the six episodes season one had :-)

Until next time!

Episode Titles (Ongoing)

So I received a message from a follower of the blog asking me why I can't ever seem to make up my mind on the titles of the episodes. Granted, they do change on a pretty frequent basis. Here's why:

When I'm conceiving the ideas for each episode or story arc, it always starts off one way in my head, then ends up being something different by the time I write it.

While I do have a general concept for each episode, I do find myself making things up as I go. As result, original titles don't always match the theme of the episode once completed. Or, story lines get shifted around or scrapped altogether.

Below is a list of all episodes completed thus far, with final titles and original titles. Just so you can see the differences :-)

SEASON ONE
Episode 1: "Anything Could Happen"
Episode 2: "The Boy is a Bottom" (Originally "GENerosity")
Episode 3: "Frenemies"
Episode 4: "I Love/Hate You" (Originally "Surprise!")
Episode 5: "Hungry Eyes" (Originally "Walks of Shame")
Episode 6: "Rivals" (Originally "Challenges")

SEASON TWO
Episode 7: "Making Waves" (Originally "People Like Us!")
Episode 8: "Cherry Poppin'"
Episode 9: "From Top to Bottom" (Originally "Role Reversal")
Episode 10: "Revelations" (Originally "And the Winner Is...")
Episode 11: "Welcome to TRiX"
Episode 12: "The Golden Cocks"
Episode 13: "Say Something" (Originally "Decisions of Consequence")

SEASON THREE
Episode 14: "Full Disclosure"

Episode 15: "dra-matiX.com"
Episode 16: "The Boyfriend Series"
Episode 17: "The King of Kings"
Episode 18: "n/a" (Note: The title of this episode will not be revealed until the season is released)
Episode 19: "Demons"
Episode 20: "All of Me" (Originally "Questions")


I'll update this particular post as more episodes are completed and titles are finalized :-)

Episode 7: NEW TITLE & Mini Synopsis

Hey everyone!

Episode 7, the first episode of season two is now complete! I found that the show is definitely taking a more dramatic turn to kick start season two, as a wide variety of story lines are beginning. These stories should be very exciting and I look forward to throwing in a bunch of random curve balls over the first four episodes. Here's hoping everyone enjoys!

Episode 7: "Making Waves"

The movie battle between Dru/Austin & Reese/Kyle is in full swing. With both teams struggling to conceive original ideas, risque decisions are made to try and one up each other; Courtney & Jeremy's new interACTIVE talk show "The DL" debuts; An open casting call brings in a game changer for one of the teams; April gets a surprising offer; Ian's games are far from over.

Look for season two of dru-maddoX.com to be released on March 18th 2014 :-)

Until next time!

The writing of season two is officially underway!

That's all for now - more episode details to follow tomorrow :-)

(Current) Titles for Episodes 7 & 8

Hey everyone!

I'm a day or two away from getting started on writing the first two episodes for season two of dru-maddoX.com! I'm very excited to dive back into it! The original plan was to get started writing today, but I needed to work out a little bit better of an outline for each episode's pace and such. Felt a little off.

By now, you've all discovered that I can never really decide on the titles for the episodes and actually stick with them, but I think I've got episodes 7 & 8's titles pretty much locked in.

Episode 7 is currently titled: " People Like Us "

Episode 8 is currently titled: " Cherry Poppin' "

I'm really looking forward to episode 8, as it features a lot of the "scenes" for Reese's movie. I spent a good amount of time trying to make his movie something way outside the box. Fingers crossed what I've come up with, works! :-)

The only other episode to have a tentative title so far is episode 10. That episode is currently slated to reveal the winner of the movie battle between Dru/Austin and Reese/Kyle, as well as bring several story-lines to a close, while kick-starting a whole bunch of new ones that will carry over into season three :-)

Hopefully the next time you hear from me, it'll be with an announcement that episode 7 is completed! Once done, I'll post the mini-synopsis of the episode and start teasing you with little facts here and there building up to the release in March :-)

Until next time!

Season Two & Beyond Update

Hey everyone,

I feel like a broken record, apologizing again for being so MIA from the blog - but unfortunately there just hasn't been time. :-(

But, I'm here now and have a few more updates on the upcoming season two, as well as some news regarding the future of dru-maddoX.com!

Prep for season two is virtually done at this point. I'm one of those weird writers that starts at the end and works my way back to the beginning. I always found it was easier to know how everything was going to end and then work everything out leading up to that ending. Most that have read season one's cliffhanger said it literally came out of left field and they truly enjoyed that. Lemme tell ya - season two's cliffhanger - quite the doozy! It will quite literally change the entire landscape of the series and propel it in a completely different direction.

Which also leads to, in my mind anyways, some more exciting news! Coming up with this doozy of a cliffhanger left my mind wandering on if I went with it, where would it all go? Thankfully, I loved the cliffhanger enough, that it led me to do some initial mapping out of seasons three AND four! That's right - it's official - dru-maddoX.com will have at least four seasons! Beyond that, well, we'll see what I can come up with - but the way it's all currently laid out, the series will have come full circle by the end of season four.

In some updated season two character news - 2 new recurring characters will be introduced, 4 season one recurring characters will return, as well as an expanded role for a character you already know:

        **EXPANDED**

• Jeremy Lockwood - Everyone's favorite bottom Jeremy, who appeared in 4 episodes of season one, A) Finally has a last name and B) Will be working very closely with Courtney on a new feature of interACTIVE as well as replace "Joe" as webmaster and cameraman for the site. Jeremy will still appear on camera every now and then, but will mostly take a behind-the-scenes role moving forward.

        **RETURNING** 

• May Flowers - May will return to stir the pot with April, as well as become an asset to....Kyle?

• Tony & RJ - Look for Austin's boys to make some more appearances throughout season two.

• Ian Andrews - Ian will make at least two appearances before his storyline wraps up. How that gets wrapped up though, that's the fun part! :-)

         **NEW** 

• Brody McIver - A new model for the site. Look for him to make waves in his debut on the site when he gets cast opposite Reese in Reese's movie.

• "Nick" - That's all I'm going to give you on this character. Any more information than that, might ruin the surprise ;-)

Hopefully the two week wait for this update was worth it! Current plans have me writing episode 7 (the first of season two) over the Thanksgiving weekend. With any luck, I can knock out episode 8 while I'm at it :-)

Until next time!

I totally just noticed that dru-maddoX.com season one has it's first reader review up and that reader gave season one the highest compliment I could've received - a 5 star review!


5.0 out of 5 stars A funny, surprisingly touching look at the world of internet porn October 24, 2013

By Nick

This turned out to be a touching, funny, and unexpectedly sweet look at the lives and loves of those who are cutting their teeth in the internet porn industry. Although the subject material is decidedly risqué, nothing could have prepared me to fall in love with and genuinely care about this group of quirky, hilarious and yes, sexy individuals. Over the six episodes of season one, the world of Dru-Maddox.com unfolds to reveal a place where boys get pregnant (sort of), girls take charge, and true love comes about in the most unexpected ways. With a diverse cast spouting cool one-liners in a unique setting, what more could one ask for. Oh, and sex. Lots and lots of sex. The season ends on an out of left field cliffhanger, so here is hoping the writer has more in store for season two. I could not recommend it more.

Thank you for your beautifully written review Nick. And to answer your question - yes, there are A LOT more fun things planned for season two! I just figured out, 3 days ago actually, what the season two cliffhanger is going to be. It makes season one's cliffhanger look like nothing! ;-)

Season One: Behind the Scenes and a look ahead to Season Two (CONTAINS SPOILERS - DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T READ SEASON ONE)

Hey everyone!

So sorry for the radio silence the past couple weeks - work has been crazy busy!

I thought it might be fun to let everyone know some of the "behind the scenes" moments in the creation and writing of season one. A lot of things changed during the course of the writing that you may, or may not, I'll be real about it, be interested in knowing. :-)

WARNING: Do not read any further if you have not read all of season one. Some of the information below contains spoilers.

DID YOU KNOW?:

- That in the original outlines of the show, dru-maddoX.com was not only going to feature gay scenes, but lesbian and straight scenes as well. The latter two were scrapped simply because I thought it might be too much too soon. While there was a "straight" sex scene in episode 3, I wanted the focus of the show to be on the core characters and I feared adding the lesbian / straight scenes to the site would involve too many characters right off the bat. Who knows, maybe in future seasons I'll add the lesbian and straight scenes to the site.

- There were no plans to put Dru/Reese or Austin/Kyle together. The original outlines called for a 4-way love circle, so to speak. Each guy was going to like another guy, who really liked another guy and so forth. IE: Dru was in love with Reese, who was in love with Kyle, who was in love with Austin, who was in love with Dru. Complicated, right? I opted to do away with that shortly after writing the first episode. You can see the initial ground-work of this 4-way love circle in episode 1, then it slowly fades away after episode 2 and we start seeing the Dru/Reese and Kyle/Austin pairings begin to happen.

- Ian Andrews was never intended to become who he became. He was literally just going to be a catalyst to bring Austin and Kyle closer together. I never had planned on him essentially becoming a crazed/obsessed stalker for Austin. That just kind of started happening as I was writing episode 5. I liked it, so I ran with it. SEASON TWO SPOILER: We'll see Ian at least once in season two. Austin has unfinished business with him ;-)

- Oh Courtney. I absolutely adore her. No matter what wild and crazy thing I come up with for her to possibly say or do, it always just seems to work. The sky's the limit with her. I especially liked in episode 3 when she sorta became friends with April. Those were some fun scenes to write.

- Speaking of Courtney - you might be surprised to know that she and Reese were technically never planned on being "series regulars" as it would be said in the TV world. They were both planned on being recurring characters. That changed very quickly for Reese after the first episode when I absolutely fell in love with writing scenes for he and Dru. They just meshed so perfectly that I decided I had to keep Reese around the entire time. It wasn't decided on Courtney until episode 2. Man, I'll never be able to look at a wire coat hanger the same again!

- My absolute favorite scene of the entire first season? It might surprise you. It was in episode 4, act 3. The scene where Kyle first admits his feelings about Austin to April on the back patio in the swing. Mother like April giving a very childish Kyle advice on gay love. I adore that scene. I thought it really gave us a strong look at how April fits into this entire story as well. She is, like it or not, the mother figure to all these horny gay boys.

- The show was always planned on being set in San Diego, CA. There was a brief moment where I considered moving it to Los Angeles, Van Nuys in particular, but I scrapped that. I have another, currently untitled, gay drama/mystery series that I'm working on which would be set in West Hollywood, CA and I didn't want two shows set in the same place. SEASON TWO SPOILER: You'll get to explore this other potential gay drama/mystery series towards the end of season two with a special crossover episode that will feature Dru and Reese introducing us to this new series and at least two of it's main characters. If the audience likes it enough, I'll write more of it :-)

- Austin was always slated to be the second male lead of the show. Reese, coming out of nowhere, stole that spot. I didn't realize until I was about 20 pages into the first episode that I hadn't even brought Austin into the picture yet. Not a good sign for the planned second male lead. I also never had mapped out that Austin was going to be, for lack of a better word, an ass! I still to this day don't know why I just made you hate him in the first few episodes. It totally worked and I had fun writing it, but ya, even I can't explain that one.

- The "fuck-off" in episode 3 was always planned to be something huge. I tossed around so many different ideas on how/what that scene should be. It was the first sex scene between the biggest gay porn star out there and the hottest fresh piece of meat the gay porn world has seen in years. The plan from the beginning for was it to be a BDSM scene. I tossed around the idea of turning it into a orgy of sorts, or a 3-way with Dru. Yes, with Dru. But then decided to keep the original plan of Austin dominating Reese with Reese turning the tables on Austin and dominating him. Throwing in each of them thinking about the ones they loved (Dru and Kyle) having sex with them during the scene was a spur of the moment decision when I was writing it. I think it really worked. It also led to a cool scene with Austin / Reese afterwards. I also wrote that scene with the thought in the back of my head, if this show ever gets produced, that would be fucking hot as hell to watch! Guilty pleasures :-)

- Austin's house arrest was originally slated to end in episode 6. When I got to the writing of that episode, I opted to keep it going into season two. While creativity restricting in a lot of ways, keeping Austin trapped at the house makes sense with the current plans for season two. This was however a fun way to give Tony and RJ more to do. They became Austin's eyes and ears outside the house. I had a lot of fun writing their scenes in episode 4. Look for them to make some more appearances in season two.

- I truly enjoyed the April / May scenes in Episode 6. We got to see a different side of April, which I think made her stronger. I really hesitated with using May Flowers as her ex's name but the idea of April Showers and May Flowers was just to absurd not to use. SEASON TWO SPOILER: We certainly have not seen the last of May. There's complex arc planned over the first 4 episodes of season two that will feature her return, but not in a way you might expect.

- We have however, seen the last of Courtney's sister Kim. That just didn't play out the way I thought it would. Kim served her purpose in episode 5 but I currently don't see any need for her to return to the series. Who knows, maybe that will change, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

- Courtney was originally named Jessica.

- I'm big on picking a soundtrack to listen to on repeat when I'm writing something. I won't go into what my soundtrack was for this particular series, but the one song that got it all started was Ellie Goulding's "Anything Could Happen" - which is where the title of the pilot came from. I had the thought from the first time I heard the song that it would be an awesome theme song for a TV show. In my head, it's the theme song for dru-maddoX.com. Start around the 3:59 mark in the song and play it out :-)

- The original working title for the show was XXX. That was scrapped a) because of the movie franchise and b) it felt like it would be about nothing but porn, which is not what this show's about. I opted with dru-maddoX.com instead, capitalizing the X to keep the porn reference there, but making it less prominent. This idea is actually how Dru got his last name. It had to end with the X and there aren't a lot of options out there. It was between Maddox and Mattox - with Maddox winning out.

- One of the initial concepts had the characters all working together at either an office building or some type of restaurant or porn store. Those were all quickly dismissed.

LOOKING AHEAD TO SEASON TWO:

- We will meet Reese's mother for the first time. She's going to have some issues with her son being in porn.

- The "movie battle" between Austin/Dru and Reese/Kyle will be the primary focus of the season. One of the pairs' movies will feature the company's first 3-way. You might very be surprised as to who's in it! This battle will also put strain on our couples' relationships and possibly lead to the end of one.

- April gets an opportunity that could dramatically change her role with the site and her relationship with Dru.

- The boys will get their first taste of a yet-to-be-named porn awards. What happens following those awards however, will change absolutely everything and turn the site literally, upside down.

- Poor Kyle. This poor kid can't seem to catch a break. Life for him after turning 21 has been anything but ideal. Sadly for him, it's about to get worse. Something will happen that no one would've ever predicted.

- Jeremy will have his role expanded in season two. He'll also get a last name! He was featured all through-out season one with little back-story. He and Courtney will be teaming up to launch a new feature of interACTIVE called "the DL" that has the potential to be a lot of fun.

- We'll get to meet Dru's previously mentioned ex, Wes.

- The house will undergo some renovations between seasons one and two, which will take place approx 3 weeks following the final moments of season one. The backyard will be changing - adding two new shooting spaces and a hot tub. Expect these new shooting spaces to get a lot of use beginning in the second episode of season two.

There are a lot more exciting things planned, but if I tell you everything - there would be no point in reading season two ;-)

Season One will be exclusively on the Kindle. No worries if you don't have a Kindle. You can download the Kindle app on your iPad / iPhone and get dru-maddoX.com season one that way!

As an added bonus - I'm announcing the official release date for Season Two as well! Gives me the added incentive to make sure it gets done!

I'm so excited to share the world of dru-maddoX.com with you all! Tuesday can't come fast enough!!!

Update

Hey everyone,

So I'm in the final phase of re-formatting everything so it'll read nicely on the Kindle/iPad/other e-reader programs. In the process of doing the final proof now.

I'm so excited to share the world of dru-maddoX.com with the world. I'm working on locking in a release date for season one - which I think will be within the next two weeks. Once I get a concrete date locked in, I'll be sure to post it!

Season two stories are still being worked on. I had a random thought for a story line for Kyle, but I'm not sure if i want to "go there" or not. Maybe when season one is released and people have had the chance to read it - I'll put up a poll to see if anyone wants me to go in the direction I'm thinking. I'm literally 50/50 and I hate that!

Please be sure to help spread the word about dru-maddoX.com season one. Invite people to follow this blog and post links to amazon.com, where dru-maddoX.com will be sold exclusively when it's available.

Let's make, from what I can tell, the first ever e-tv series a phenomenon!

Lots of love!

Updates

Hey Everyone,

I thought I'd take a quick second to update you all on what's happening in the world of dru-maddoX.com.

Season One's final reviews are underway. Gotta check all the spelling, grammar, etc. I went back and re-wrote a couple scenes in episodes 1 and 3 that I thought needed a little sprucing up! Very happy with the revisions.

The hope is to finish the reviews by tomorrow and then begin the publication process. My goal from the start has been to have this ready for release sometime in late September / early October and barring any set-backs, everything looks to be on the right track so far!

I've also been hard at work drafting the stories for season two. I'm still really excited about Reese's journey in season two and how that will impact not only his relationship with Dru, but his relationship with everyone at the site.

I'm also very excited to be bringing May back for a little bit. Found a cool story that involves her causing more drama for April.

Thing are slowly coming together for a fun Courtney and possibly Jeremy video blog idea. I'm still not 100% sure if Jeremy will be a part of this or not. That character is one that I would like to expand in season two and have the initial way how, but I still want to give him something more to do and develop his character a bit more.

There will be a new "series regular" if you want to call it that in season two. This character has quite the monkey wrench to throw into things and I'm excited how it's all going to play out. More on this character will be revealed once I finish developing him. I'm 90% sure I've locked in his name, but who knows. For now, his name is... Brody Lockwood.

I'm very excited to release season one and hear what everyone thinks about it. Little nervous too, can't lie :-)

I wish everyone a safe and happy Labor Day weekend and I'll talk to you all again soon!
