Butterscotch -45- Mercy

We watched the big guy at the gate for another moment or two, then Rory stood up suddenly, causing me to squeak.

“That is Armando,” he said. “He’s—he’s stalking you!”

“Rory?” I said a bit uncertainly.

“Sit there,” he ordered me. “Stay put. I’m going to go down and tell him to lay off!”

“Rory, don’t—”

“I’m not going to make a scene or anything. He’s a big doof and a friend of both of us, but he can’t be doing this.” Ro...

Dreams of Future Past - by Kevin J. McCarthy on Vella

Kindle has a new serialized fiction platform called Vella which will be premiering later this week. We've got a non-TG science fantasy adventure that will be premiering, too. The first three episodes will be free and single chapters of 1500 to 3000 words will cost 0.15 to 0.30 USD/GBP/EUR to view. 

New episodes will come out approximately weekly as the whole series develops; Future Past is a massive epic comparable in scale to George R.R. Martin's Song of Ice and Fire.

Special FX -16- Mierde

Jack drove along the beach for a few blocks before making his way back toward the Village. The top was up and the windows closed because the onshore flow held that deep cold that comes off the Pacific, but I could look out at the ocean and enjoy the view. The waves breaking on the shore glowed with phosphorescence.

I caught Jack glancing sideways at me several times. “What?” I asked.

“Just enjoying the view,” he said, causing me to giggle at the echo to my own thoughts. 2021-06-26 20:01:31 +0000 UTC View Post

Pete's Vagina -4- Five Yard Penalty

My scream came out high-pitched and ragged like I didn’t have enough air. It ended with choking and coughing as Dr. Verre withdrew her instruments from the examination of my insides. She made a noise herself, something like a soft yelp of surprise. She rolled backward on her office chair, looking up at my face.

“Just breathe, honey,” said Granny, the older woman serving as nurse. “You’ll be all right.” She moved up to take my left hand.

Megan must have come back into t...

Cover for Maryanne's Book 3

I posted this as an illo for my story before but that tale became a collaboration between Maryanne and I, and the lead story in her third collection!

Lots of new stuff, too. The book will be out in the next couple of days, imshallah and the crick don't rise.

I Wish 3 cover candidate

I'm thinking of using the image above for Amethyst's I Wish Book 3 and subtitle it Sisters forever. The redhead is the girl we used on  book 2 and the blonde looks like the girl from book 1.

Butterscotch -44- Stadium

“Do you want me to take you home?” he asked.

I shook my head. “Am I—” I gasped. “Am I too much of a chick?”

He laughed softly. “Girls cry easily, it doesn’t always mean what it seems to mean.”

I nodded, realizing he was right. Was I crying over the song? The song was about saying goodbye and Rory and I were just starting our relationship. I sighed and wiped my eyes carefully then smiled at him. “Do I look terrible?” I asked.

He laughed softly. �...

The Farside of Never -Book 1- Daphne -2- Themis

I woke up with the feeling that my head was caught in a vise. I wasn't wrong. When I tried to move I found I couldn't, not anything except to twitch my fingers and wiggle my toes, even my thumbs seemed caught in some unyielding hold.

My mouth was stuffed with someone's old socks or possibly a dead prairie dog. I could open my eyes but what I could see from the light that leaked around my cheekbones looked like layers and layers of gauze. Was I paralyzed and horribly burnt? I tried to gr...

Risky Endeavors by Maryanne Peters - Cover Candidate

This is Book 2 of Maryanne's series of anthologies and it will most likely be available later this week from Kindle. Look for the announcement on BigCloset. :)

Special FX - Hallie Jones by C.D. Rudd

Met with C.D. Rudd (creator of SailorSun.org and I Dream of a Jeanie Bottle) in his livestream last night and he did a sketch of Hallie Jones from Special FX, my story inspired by his SailorSun webcomic!

Isn't she gorgeous? Thanks, C.D.!

Butterscotch -43- Barbecue

I got rid of the autograph seekers in the simplest way possible—I forged Heather Bock’s name in their book.

“You’re even prettier in person,” the taller boy gushed.

“I love your tiara,” said the girl. “You should have tried out for Ariel.”

I shook my head at that. More than just amused, I was struggling with hilarity. “They’d already cast that part, and with someone who’s a real singer,” I said.

“You’re a real singer!” she protested. “...

Special FX -15- Dinner

The restaurant was probably still an hour from closing, kept open by its location and overflow from the busy hotel bar, but it wasn’t so full that we needed to wait for seating. The tables were actually on an upper floor with a view of the beach.

We took the stairs up, and I had very little trouble with the heels that Jack had talked me into wearing. A little wobbly, but my feet seemed to like heels and I did enjoy the height. I’d been wearing the hidden heels in my transformed snea...

Pete's Vagina -3- Offsides

I drove without saying anything for a bit as we wandered through the upscale housing around the country club where the road and the beautiful homes squiggled around the ponderosa pines. I always forget that this area isn’t actually in the city limits until I reach the highway and the welcome sign that says, “Now Entering Friendly, Arizona. Population 12,765 FRIENDLY People.”

Corny but it usually makes me smile. Not this time, though.

So, driving. Driving takes some concentra...

Butterscotch -42- Cupcake

Rory held up at second after a run-scoring single advanced him—with his lack of speed, it wasn’t worth trying for third. The Wave Riders initiated a pitcher change because their guy’s confidence was shot. The girls and I hugged each other and squealed.

I overheard the coaches near the Titan’s bench discussing whether to pull Rory for a pinch runner. But if they did that, he couldn’t pitch the bottom of the eleventh. And they’d need to replace the next batter, too, who was th...

Woke Up Like This -6-

Leo stretched out on the bed beside me and began undressing me. “Lord, I so want to play with those titties,” he said into my ear.

I giggled because it tickled, both in my ear and other places. It made me want to squirm, but he put one hand under my shirt and that tickled, too. I tried to grab his wrist but that wasn’t working at all.

With the other hand, he undid the buttons of my blouse and found the t-shirt I was wearing underneath. I did grab that hand, and sucked his fi...

Home Alone 2 by Susan Brown - cover candidate

The second half of Katie's tale where she finds a new school, new friends and a new family will soon be a DopplerPress book.

The Farside of Never -Book 1- Daphne -1- Colorado Springs

All I wanted was a job.

I answered an ad on one of the online job boards. It was practically a new experience for me and made me feel like I was a real part of the 21st century.

"Adventurous young people needed for exciting jobs building a new country. Agricultural, petrochemical and medical training are pluses. Write or email Sahel Major Industry..." followed by an address in Egypt and a Canadian email address.

Adventurous fit me well enough, I'm most always ready for a new...

Blue Moon Comic - Art Preview by Melanie E.

This project is coming along, we want a ten week buffer before we start posting and this page brings us to about 6 to 8 weeks. I have to do the lettering, but we are using pretty much Donna's story as the script so that's mostly done.

Coloring? I dunno. Does anyone want to tackle coloring for us?

Coming soon from DopplerPress, a book of novelettes and short stories by Maryanne Peters! Revised versions of some that have appeared on BigCloset or other websites and some new stories too!

Stolen -11- Gift

With my eyes covered and the room dark and quiet, I soon fell asleep—whether or not Bonnie had drugged my smoothie. I had strange dreams that seemed disconnected from anything that had been happening to me. Except in one of them, I had to attend class at my high school with my hands tied behind me.

I became aware of someone lying close beside me. The weight of another body pulled me toward them and I heard breathing. I must have given some signal I wasn’t aware of because Moose’s ...

Butterscoth -41- Baseball

When the seventh inning stretch came, with the score still at 1-0, Rory used the break to meet me where the fence was only a low chain link barrier and not a three-foot-wide structure.

“You seem to be getting along well with the other girls,” he said. “I heard them calling you ‘Cupcake’. Is that because they’re all so much bigger than you?”

“Um,” I said. I put my face up, begging for a kiss and I got one. “I guess so. I told a story that had those little cupcak...

Pete's Vagina -2- Flag on Play

Joanna Claremont had perfected her image as the prototypical tall, blond, carnivorous cheerleader. Our school wasn’t large, but last year, not only had the Friendly Lions football team made it to the state playoffs, so had our cheerleading squad. And Joanna had already made it known that as head cheerleader this year, she intended to lead the Lionesses to a repeat.

Once Jake had gone downstairs then, it was no surprise when she grabbed the duvet covering my nakedness and demanded, “...

The Devil in Drag Is Still Up to Her Old Tricks

On the third odd Thursday of the month, the Devil dresses in drag and wanders the world granting wishes and causing trouble. When that day also happens to fall on the second full moon of a month, a Blue Moon, things may get more than strange. Just so it began, very early one particular Thursday morning, the 31st of January.
