Status Update 4

Bad news and good news.

1) Bad news: I'm still working 50-hour-solid weeks.

So, Medusa Chapter 6 will be delayed a week. It's up to 16k and I could edit it and push it this Sunday as planned, but it's an important chapter and I want to expand it. Unfortunately doing that with my current work...

My Little Ventrue - Sexual Content Discussion

You probably noticed in Part2 of MLV that both of Beatrice's sex scenes are anal scenes. This is due to many factors, but ultimately it was because fit girls who enjoy anal sex = super hot, IMO. And this got me thinking.

While I consider the story of MLV to be mine to write, and I won't take votes...

Medusa Character - Discussion

This one surprised me. Of all the feedback I've received about Medusa, the thing I hear the most is how much they enjoy the character.

With Antoinette, I specifically crafted someone you could call 'sexy and dangerous.' Medusa? Medusa is a product of me trying to find a non-cliche way of approachi...

Medusa Ch. 05

Chapter 5! Builds up for what you could consider the 'second' book.

Berserk 355 - Discussion

Don't have time to write a good weekly discussion this time (woo 12 hour shift), hopefully this overtime ends in a week.

But Berserk 355 just came out, and GO READ IT. NOW. ALL OF IT. THE WHOLE MANGA.

Status Update 3

POINT 1:  OVERTIME AAAAAAAAH. 

So my studio just started mandatory overtime (I'm a video game dev). As if working 40 hours solid a week, and writing 20 hours a week wasn't hard enough. This is why I want to quit so bad, and focus on writing. I can write 50+ hours a week and be damn happy...

Future: Focus on sagas

Good news for most, bad news for some, I suppose.  I could already see it coming, so I decided to take initiative. An Inhuman Love is dead. Dead, or at least I won't be writing them any time soon.

Looking around, reading around, I see all the successful authors in this sort of approach really...

Medusa Sex Scene Vote

So you readers have already read 3 sex scenes between Darian and Medusa. Sex scene #4 was voted to be:
Darian POV -  Medusa dom, Darian sub - V1 (she tortures him on the edge of orgasm while he's forced to make her cum a bunch).

Time for a vote for sex scene #5 between these two...

Future Stories Sneak Peek and Discussion

So you'll see in my goals that I mention I want to write multiple SAGAs, and that I have lots of ideas for sagas.

I don't want you readers to think that I'm going to write a bunch of short, 4-5 chapter sagas though. If you're going to get committed to a series, you want it to last, right? You get ...

An Inhuman Love Ch. 02 - Curious Mermaid

Mermaids! A lot of fun describing mermaids, so colorful!

I'm going to aim for a 3/1 cadence on SAGA/AIL stories. Much as AIL stories are fun to write, and a good brain break for me, SAGA stories like Medusa and My Little Ventrue are the reason people come to my Patreon, so I'll focus and getting m...

MLV - Creating Antoinette - Discussion

The amount of feedback I got for MLV blew me away. I had no idea so many people would be interested in a paranormal mystery/suspense/thriller story about vampires that was low in action, and high in politics. What's more, I had no idea people would be so into Jack, a tiny kid lacking confidence and ...

Berserk - Discussion... again

So for this week, I have only 2 things to say, because it's all that's on my mind.

First, if you haven't actually read the Berserk manga, go do so. The original anime and the Golden Arc movies are great, but they don't do the manga justice. The new anime is garbage, and the games are al...

Status Update 2

"An Inhuman Love Ch. 02" is coming along nicely. Mermaids are fun to work with! I have a lot of different versions to draw inspiration from, and there's something delightful about writing and describing colorful creatures, instead of the typical drab colors of skin.

The vote for "An Inh...

Art 2 - Chimera

Chimera! This is the second cover I commissioned before I decided to go the Patreon route. This is without the Ani Novu writer alias, or book name.

Chimera was an interesting idea. I didn't want to write about the actual, normal Chimera, a lion with a goat head and snake tail. There's little to wo...

Berserk - Discussion

Berserk has my favorite romance story of all time.

OF ALL TIME.

A long, slow build, powerful story, emotional and dark and meaningful. The romance is a sub plot, but a very, VERY good one, so good it rides alongside the main plot. It is the gold standard I aim for when I try and write my dar...

What story(ies) brought you here?

This is mostly just a curiosity of mine.  What story or stories of mine have brought you here? My Little Ventrue has 2 full novels under its belt, but I didn't have a Patreon at the time.

I'll definitely be including writing more My Little Ventrue in the first Patron-wide Saga vote...

Medusa: Fate's Game Ch. 04

Woo, chapter 4!  18,250 words.

Lot of action in this chapter. Action scenes are tough to write! I can write dialogue, I can write sex, but to sink 15k+ words into an elaborate sequence of events? I'll need to practice that.

The style of the next sex scene after thi...

Art 1 - Medusa

First post of the ART series! First and second post are done, but then there won't be any new art until I hit the 1000$ goal. Sadness.

But in the mean time, here ya go, the original cover work I was going to use for this series before I decided to go Patreon. This is the cover without m...

Status Update 1

So things are on schedule to get Medusa Ch. 04 out by the end of Feb 11th. Lot of action, tough chapter to write.

After that, it's An Inhuman Love Ch. 02, which is looking to be a classic love story about a sailor and a mermaid. I really do love this series, because I don't have to plan...

Short guys - Discussion

You guys may have noticed I like to write about short people. I'm a short guy! I'm a fit and athletic short guy, and it's no secret to me that the reason I originally created Darian (and later, Jack) was to write about people similar to myself. Because no one else will.

Of all the sexis...

Baldur's Gate - Discussion

When I was just a young punk, back when games came on multiple CDs, I'd grown quite fond of an RPG called Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2. An isometric tactical RPG where you control 6 characters, yours and 5 NPCs.

All my friends talked about the combat, the ruleset, the puzzles, the ...

Medusa: Fate's Game Ch. 03

A picture! I had originally planned on going down the self-publishing route, until I realized I hate everything (and I mean everything) about publishing. But I had commissioned a couple of covers, and here's the second one.

Attached is chapter 3 at 18,500 words. I had a head start on th...

Monster sex: how far is too far? - Discussion

I originally asked this on the Literotica forums, but I feel it should be asked here too. When it comes to non-human sex, how far is too far?

I'm asking because "An Inhuman Love"

Medusa vs. Inhuman Love - Discussion

So this has been an interesting experiment!

I decided to start off my Patreon efforts with 2 stories posted at the same time, Medusa and An Inhuman Love (AIL), and I've been monitoring the stats of the two stories since.

The pattern is clear. People are much quicker to even CLICK on AIL than...

An Inhuman Love Ch2 Monster Vote

What monster do you want in the next An Inhuman Love? I'm going to start writing this once I'm done writing Medusa Ch. 04.

The last chapter was about a male monster, so this time I'm going to write about a female monster! I won't spoil the storylines, but we have:

- Mermaid story, which is g...

Medusa: Fate's Game Ch. 02

Woo, next chapter! Please share with me your opinions, or if there are any issues viewing the file.

I'm aiming for Ch. 03 by end of day on the 28th.

Said Said Said - Discussion

Google something like 'using said in writing' or 'dialogue said' and you'll get a host of websites preaching about how you should be replacing the verb 'said' with as many possible variants as you can. Yelled, screamed, groaned, moaned, whispered, growled, etc. It's a shame these people never talked...

Medusa Ch. 02

Chapter 2 will be done and available on Patreon on Jan 7th, and on Literotica/HF 1-chapter later.

Ideally I'll be posting a new chapter every 3 weeks like clockwork, and each chapter will be about 20k words, give or take ...

Medusa Sex Scene

I won't spoil anything! Except that it's a sex scene between Medusa and Darian, moderately early in the saga.

What sort of sex scene would you like to play out between these two characters? The sex scene will be told through Darian's POV, fyi.

New stories! An Inhuman Love and Medusa
