This was one of the most joyful chapters for me to write in quite some time. I think that the fact that I recently discovered micro-dosed infused THC drinks both inspired the subject and contributed to its construction. I hope you like reading it as much as I liked writing it. I even made myself ...

Here are some illustrations of some of the characters in Book IX and a few shots of characters that have not appeared before. There is one NSFW shot. As always, these are created using AI by a person with zero talent in the visual arts. There will not be mistakes in the photos. Every detail, eve...
2025-04-14 19:30:38 +0000 UTC View PostSome more character development in this one. There's a good helping of Caydee and an introduction to the new KVA Receptionist (God be with her). Keep the comments and suggestions coming.
2025-04-14 00:55:00 +0000 UTC View PostPace is picking up and my flow is definitely back in gear. The story moves a little further down the line and I've answered a few questions that some readers have asked me over the years. Also, Greg is very much back in action and shining in this one. Let me know what you think.
2025-04-07 23:04:19 +0000 UTC View PostI am very happy with this chapter as the prose flew out of me quite easily in a way it has not done in a while. I think everyone will like this chapter and agree that the story is moving along. I would like to thank my anonymous friend who helped me with the Spanish parts over the last few chapte...
2025-03-31 09:23:15 +0000 UTC View PostBear with me for another chapter as new characters are introduced once again (not REALLY new). This is another view of the Kingsley family from an outside perspective. This is all leading somewhere. The characters introduced in the last two chapters will be recurring in this final primary story n...
2025-03-25 14:21:30 +0000 UTC View PostI'm introducing a new character to the story that will be a subplot and symbolic presence involving the Kingsley children through the rest of the book and likely into any next-gen Intemp tales I compose in the future. The introduction starts of from this character's point of view for the first pa...

As always with non-chapter posts, there is no charge for illustrations. I have the depiction of the Intemperance Never Say Never album cover that I put together with Photoshop and two AI programs. It's not as cool as what I imagined because I'm not a visual artist like Grace, but there it is. The...
2025-02-09 10:58:56 +0000 UTC View PostAnd so starts the ninth book of the series. Sorry I needed a little break between the end of Book VIII and the start of Book IX, but I really needed it. I've been almost completely immersed in Jake's world for the past seven years straight now and just needed a little breather. And now I'm back t...

I took a little break after finishing Book 8 because I really needed one. As of today, I have started Book 9 and should be able to keep to my normal schedule (such as it is). In any case, here are a few more historical illustrations, mostly from Book 7 since I've been working on another edit of t...

Here is the second half of the illustrations I did while editing and formatting Book VIII for publication. Two NSFW shots in this bunch at the end. If you have not actually read the book yet, you probably should not look at the pictures until you have done so.
2024-12-29 12:39:31 +0000 UTC View PostFor those interested, the complete and final edited Intemperance VIII, subtitled "Living in Limbo" is now available on both Amazon.com and Bookapy.com. Thank you all again f...

I am now in the editing and formatting process for Book VIII for publication. I have paused at certain points to illustrate certain scenes in the story that I thought deserved to be seen. I'm about halfway done with the edit/format process and working hard on it to get it out before the end of 20...

And a few historical illustrations as well. Does contain NSFW images.
2024-12-20 12:31:19 +0000 UTC View PostAnd this is the final chapter of Intemperance VIII. I still have not come up with a subtitle yet and I'm open to suggestions. As before, this was supposed to be the final book of the main story but, alas, there is still considerable story to tell. Let me know what you think and I'll let you all k...
2024-12-20 07:42:55 +0000 UTC View PostApparently my last post of illustrations triggered some sort of alarm over at Patreon central because of the adult illustrations. They temporarily suspended me until I verified my identity (that's been done) and said they are marking my content as "over 18 only" which I am pretty sure I had alrea...

These, as the title implies, is mostly illustrations of past moments in the Intemperance saga. There are also a few contemporary (for the setting) illustrations and one from the future. Minor spoiler alert if you look at that photo. It does show certain undisputable suppositions about the future ...

They're not all scenes from the latest chapter. Some are past scenes of notable circumstances and interactions. Again, no charge for illustrations and if you prefer your own imagination of what the characters look like to mine, don't open the post.
2024-12-10 15:42:44 +0000 UTC View PostSorry this one took a few more days than I thought. I got to experience the wonderfulness of norovirus for about forty-eight hours. Good times. In any case, here it is. Yami tries to settle into her new job and both Intemperance and Celia Valdez-Kingsley start working on their new albums while th...

The next chapter is almost done and should be published on Tuesday or maybe Wednesday. In the meantime, some more pictures of the Kingsley past from various scenes and the future adventures of the Kingsley children. No spoilers in the future shots, just some subtle hints of the kids' possible fut...

From this point onward, all photos I post of characters can be considered canon unless mentioned otherwise. I do continue to work on the actual story so have no fear about that, I just enjoy doing the illustrations when I'm done writing for the night. Here are a few of the main characters during ...

I have made lots of pictures so I will continue to share them at no additional charge for those who are interested in seeing them. This dump focuses on secondary characters in the story, including two series' of the Kingsley children that stretches into their future. The only spoiler alert needed...

Another dump of illustrations for the story. As usual, do not open if you do not want to see my vision of what the characters look like. The votes are all in and the polls are closed on the issue of what Matt face to use. Number 3 was the clear winner by more than a two to one margin when all the...
2024-11-20 08:01:17 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a progression chapter, skipping ahead just a bit and speaking about recent events in the past tense. Yami has agreed to be the new live-in nanny for the Kingsley family. Did she just sell her soul, she is forced to wonder. Illustrations will follow shortly. Don't open the illustrations if...

No charge for this post as it is not a chapter. These are story illustrations and if you do not want to see them, do not open this posting. The next chapter is well over half written. I work the next two nights (Saturday and Sunday) and will hopefully finish it up on Monday or Tuesday. In the mea...

I've lost my new AI art program for another four days, so I cannot post pictures from Chapter 23 at this time.

Next chapter should be out shortly. I am about 3/4 of the way done with it and it introduces two new characters. There is no charge for this post as it is not a chapter. Of late I have been playing around with an AI illustrator and have been working on making some illustrations to go along with t...

Personal issues came and have now gone (for the most part). This is also, though it might not seem so at this time, a pivotal chapter and I struggled with some degree of writer's block in...
