The Views of May [A Commissioned Story] Is Now Posted!

I was backed up with commission requests for a bit, so I wanted to hunker down and finish a commissioned story before running my next poll. The next poll for my writing will run tomorrow, sorry for the delay. And yes, it will be finished within October.

For now, a new story, The Views of May, has been finished! You can access it by clicking the link. Longtime readers will either enjoy or dislike seeing a familiar face in it. Either way, I hope you all enjoy the story.

Consequences Chapter Two Has Been Posted!

It was heartwarming to see the messages of encouragement I got when I started writing Consequences, and taking, the second chapter has been posted! I hope that the story continues to bring you all joy. As always, all feedback is appreciated.

If you enjoyed this chapter, don't forget to vote for Consequences in the upcoming poll! If you'd rather read something else, I want to hear your voices too. Thank you as always for supporting what I do, you all mean so much to me.

Worlds Apart Chapter 2 [Commission] Has Been Posted!

For those that have been following the the more fantastical story, Worlds Apart, today chapter 2 of the story has been posted! You can find it by clicking on the link in this paragraph. 

As always with commissions, this doesn't affect my regular schedule of stories. The next planned chapter (likely Consequences Chapter 2) will be coming out as planned and on time. Thank you as always for being a great community.

Consequences Chapter 1 Has Now Been Posted!

When I started writing erotica, I wrote a silly dramatic high school story called Being More Social. Since completing it, "are you doing a sequel" has been the most frequently asked question, and as of today, the sequel has been started. You can read Chapter One here. 

If you enjoyed the first chapter, don't forget to vote for Consequences in the upcoming poll! If you'd rather read something else, I want to hear your voices too. Thank you as always for supporting what I do, and being such an uplifting yet unrestrained feedback-giving thoughtful community.

Mutual Benefits Chapter 20 is Now Posted!

While it arrived later than I wanted it to, it's here. The twentieth and final chapter of Mutual Benefits has now been published, and you can read it by clicking this link here. I'm nervous, happy, excited and hopeful to be sharing this with you. Above all, I hope it brings you joy. That's all I want my stories to do.

Starting tomorrow, I'll put up the poll and get to work on a new story (and I think I can guess which one) so this really will be the moment to let your voice be heard. As always, remember you'll be able to vote for as many stories as you want in a single poll, so choose whatever you want to read. I hope you all will enjoy this chapter, and enjoyed the whole story. It's certainly been a ride. I'll do my best to keep an extra eye on my notifications today, and would love to hear any thoughts you have - none are too small. Thank you for being my reason to keep writing happily.

A Miraculous Affair - Now Fully Edited!

A Miraculous Affair has now been fully edited and can be downloaded in both pdf and ePub formats! Included are the usual fixed spelling & grammar mistakes, better wording and a few extra lines of dialogue and description, as well as a fancy title page. I hope you all enjoy it.

Other updates are coming along. While I may be under a lot of pressure, I'm hoping to have other new updates out soon. 

Mutual Benefits Chapter 19 is Now Posted!

Mutual Benefits Chapter 19 has now been posted! I take a few emotional and narrative risks in this chapter, but the story feels true to me. I hope it'll feel true to you too.

Since we're only halfway through the month and there's only one chapter left, I'm not going to have a poll tomorrow, and instead, I'm going to invest a lot of energy into finishing the story as soon as I reasonably can. I don't think this would happen, but if I ran a poll and Mutual Benefits lost for months, it would just be an unfinished story lingering in my brain for too long, and the story would suffer. So instead, I'll be finishing it, hopefully before the end of this month. 

Note that if I do manage to finish it before the end of the month, there will of course be no extra charges to patrons. You all are the kindest community I've seen and I just want to help you all feel joy with my stories. As well, if my patronage keeps growing like this, I'll eventually get to a point where I can just take a part-time job and commit to two chapters every month normally. Fingers crossed.

Mutual Benefits Chapter 18 is Now Posted!

Mutual Benefits Chapter 18 has now been posted! I hope a lot of emotion is felt in this one. As always, you all will be the judges. You can access it by clicking the link in this paragraph.

As some of you know, I was recently let go from my full-time job in part of a mass downsizing, so thank you to all of the existing and new patrons that have decided to support me this month. You all mean so much to me. The poll for the next written piece will be up soon. You all are so wonderful.

ePubs are here!

Thank you all for your patience! All of the stories I have finished (apart from A Miraculous Affair) are attached as ePub files. Going forward, all of my finished stories will be released both as .pdf files and .epub files. 

As always, if there are any errors that need fixing, let me know and I'll fix and re-release them. I hope you all enjoy the polished works!

A Test ePub - Amy's Fantasy

Hello, patrons! I come to you both with an update and a request for assistance. Attached is an ePub file I have made of Amy's Fantasy, selected because of its short length. I'm not the greatest with technology, and wanted to check for eReader users if this file is adequate.

1. Does this file give you the book without any catastrophic problems (formatting issues, etc)?
2. Are there any tweaks I should make when I make ePubs of my whole library, to make the files better for patrons like you?

Thank you so much!

Small $5 Patron Update

Hello hello! Just giving a small update for $5 backers.

Recently it's come to my attention that some patrons would like .epub files as well as .pdf files for polished final works. I'm quite the luddite, so I have a "tech guy" I work with, and I've tasked him with either teaching me how to convert to ePub files, or convert them himself. So, within the month, my stories should begin getting released to $5 backers both as pdf as well as epub files.

If there's another ideal possibility for eReading, feel free to message me. More updates will be coming soon!
