Just thought I'd let you guys know what my plans are for the upcoming stories.
Today was fan day, and I think I've read all of the fanfictions I was supposed to read, and responded to all of the comments and emails I could find. I also did my obligatory April Fools shitpost.
Now that Longhunter is finished, the next story in the lineup is Autumn War, the next big Pinwheel entry. I'm actually going to take a little time to work on another project before I begin writing that, though...

Here's a new species that will be appearing in the Pinwheel universe.
The Sex Nymphs come from the planet Rigel IV located in the Rigel star system, approximately 260 parsecs from Terra. First encountered by Captain Lance Pierce in the Terran Empire ship USNSSNSSNS Intrepid, the women of Rigel IV were sending out a distress signal in perfect English asking for urgent aid. Their men had all been killed by a freak solar flare, resulting in the inevitable collapse of their society unless e...

Here's a piece drawn by XimemaArt, and commissioned by our friend Meklab, which features a curious Valbaran digging into a juicy burger for the first time. The Earth'nay may not know how to recycle, but they sure know how to make fast food!

I'm going to be doing one last proofread and editing pass on Pinwheel to get it ready for the audiobook project, and I'll be creating a pronunciation guide for the voice actress that will help her out with any made-up names and terms from the setting.
I'll be putting work on Longhunter on hold temporarily, as this needs to be done by next week when recording is due to start, but I don't expect it to take more than three or four days at the most. I'm mostly searching for typos and gramma...

Here's the second audiobook scene that Bordeaux Black sent over for us. Be warned that this one is NSFW! I'm especially pleased with the Borealan accent on this one, which I think is going to go over marvelously in the full story.

The videogame commission I've been working on over the last few months has provided me with the funds necessary to take on a brand new, large project, and to expand the Pinwheel universe into new mediums. I'm very excited to share some samples for an upcoming audiobook project with you all.
Recently, I had the opportunity to get in touch with the talented Bordeaux Black, a seasoned adult voice actress who has worked on such projects as StudioFOW's upcoming game Subverse, and th...

Here's the finished cover for Longhunter, which is another impressive piece of artwork provided by our partner in pestilence, SickJoe: https://www.deviantart.com/sickjoe
He actually completed this one so quickly that it's beaten the story to the punch, which means that I'll be able to make a Retail version of the Ebook available almost immediately upon finalizing the manuscript.

The depths of Kerguela's autumn jungles are haunted by the enigmatic Stalkers, a caste of Betelgeusian bred to embody stealth and lethality. Unlike many of the other castes that are well known to Coalition forces, the Stalkers are asocial creatures, able to li...

By popular demand, here is a custom Valbaran species pack for the game Stellaris. They are fully animated, and the mod includes dozens of different sets of skin colors, feathers, and clothing styles that will let you create your ideal Valbaran waifu who can then teach the rest of the Galaxy their peaceful ways by either diplomacy or the mass application of railguns. (Power-armored Valbarans are considered non-canon but very cool).
This mod was made by Etiluos, who you can find ...

Here's the first 2000 words of my new story, Longhunter.
A cartographer sets out on a mission of discovery, mapping a strange, foreign continent full of exotic beasts and mysterious natives at the behest of his employer. The further he heads Westward, the more bizarre his journey gets, the very land itself somehow twisted and blighted. Despite the danger, he is compelled to press on by a plea for help from a stranger who believes that he may be her people's only hope of...

I just wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas, and to thank you for another year of support. We've been growing steadily, with larger stories, a bigger community, more concept art and covers, and bigger side projects like the website and the upcoming game, and that's all thanks to you guys paying me to be a shameless smut peddler.

It looks like Pastebin just implemented a new policy. All posts that contain profanity or NSFW no-no speech such as fuck or titties have been forcibly set to private, meaning that nobody but the owner can view them. As a result, my entire Pastebin of over 60 stories just became inaccessible to you guys. This sucks, because I've been using it for years as an archive and as a way to deliver my daily updates, and I know that those Pastes are in circulation on a lot of different...

Today, I uploaded Worlds Apart 2 to the various websites I post on, so that's all finished now. The next project I want to work on is a short fantasy story about a faun/deer creature, and after that, I'll be starting work on the much awaited Autumn War story, which is about retaking the lost Valbaran colony of Kerguela. There's some more concept art in the works for that one, so stay tuned.
For the next few days, I'm going to take a little time off writing to work on the websit...

I use the same HTML source file for that page as I do the Ebooks, so it has all of the formatting that doesn't display on Pastebin like italics and indents.

Here's some concept art for a new Betelgeusian vehicle that will be appearing in the upcoming story The Autumn War.
These behemoths haunt the autumn jungles of Kerguela, spewing magnetically-accelerated plasma fire and swarms of chemical rockets at those unfortunate enough to cross paths with them. Their eight powerful legs make them extremely mobile in rough terrain, and they're able to bury themselves in the ground, hiding the vulnerable areas of their chitinous hulls and making thems...

From now on, the first of every month will be Community Day, where I set aside a full day to respond to emails and comments, and to read the fanfiction stories that readers have submitted.
As time goes on, the volume of messages and submissions grows, and I've not done a good job of setting aside time to deal with it all on top of my writing schedule. I'm working on average ten or eleven hour days right now, both due to the normal daily updates, and some secret projects that I'...
