Patrons will know that I get inspiration from captioned images (although I am increasingly looking for just images to spark me) and I usually just expand a little in a short piece. But in this case there were two captioned images in series and a more involved story that still cried out for ...
2022-12-04 20:00:35 +0000 UTC View PostHere is a bit of fun from an idea by Erin. Her seed was about birdwatchers and I had some vague recollection of a documentary mentioning birds that "cross-dressed" so I googled it and learned all about the ruff, and some other odd birds as well. I chose to make the storyteller a key c...
2022-12-04 19:52:30 +0000 UTC View PostI think that I was watching or reading something about an ancient dynasty where the male heir was at certain risk of death just because he was male. It led me to think about a scenario set in more modern times, and this is the story that came out.
2022-11-27 20:08:33 +0000 UTC View PostThis story is based on a mentor of mine who did have an attractive daughter. Sometimes just a couple of imagined encounters are enough for a story - for me, anyway. What do you think?
2022-11-27 20:00:18 +0000 UTC View PostHere are another five stories set in this "Universe" that has been accepted as such on the Fictionmania website. It all started when I saw a couple of captioned images by Elena on her site virtuousmodestlady.tumblr.com. I just thought that she had captured both the hypocrisy of some c...
2022-11-27 19:55:16 +0000 UTC View PostIt is funny how, when you write in the first person, the storyteller seems almost fully formed when you start so you just let him speak. That is not to say that you should believe every word of his about his motivations here.
2022-11-20 20:12:38 +0000 UTC View PostI have been watching some news feeds about the war in Ukraine, and the recent "partial mobilization" in Russia. I have written at least one short piece on cross-dressing to avoid the draft but I felt that the desperation to avoid this particular meat grinder might justify it. I have s...
2022-11-20 20:08:26 +0000 UTC View PostHere is another idea from Erin - "An uber driver picks up someone who looks female ...". I just started typing and this is what came out. It does go all the way, for people who need the warning!
2022-11-20 20:02:57 +0000 UTC View PostHere is a bundle of caption extensions by somebody on Tumblr styled "Jennifer Sissy". These are great for me - nice images with just a few words to hint at a plot, so that I am not constrained by a story.
2022-11-13 21:56:38 +0000 UTC View PostPatrons will understand that I write "extensions" of captioned images and I post them here in bundles of 5 as I have done today. I post singles on Fictionmania and every now and then I get comments (usually good) and sometimes requests for a longer story based on the situation described. &n...
2022-11-13 21:32:41 +0000 UTC View PostI think Erin may have given me this idea - a farm boy finds himself attracted to his male friend by imaging him as female, and discovers that was what she was inside all along.
2022-11-13 21:24:33 +0000 UTC View PostThis one too - I should post a further collection of 5 vignettes of my own rather than singles, but this and "Never too Old" are images in a series which prompted me to write, so here they both are. If any patron out there would like to suggest images, singles or series, that might inspire ...
2022-11-06 21:57:35 +0000 UTC View PostDid I post this here? I should have, but if I haven't, here it is. This is one of those things where a series of images just begged for a story to be told.
2022-11-06 20:34:43 +0000 UTC View PostThis one has been sitting in my glory box to finish when I had time, and some might say that it still needs some work. I was prompted to finish it to make up the numbers for what I hope will be another anthology on Amazon to come out before the end of the year, to be entitled "Strange Stori...
2022-11-06 20:30:50 +0000 UTC View PostHere is another collection of stories sparked by captioned images - these 5 from some by Miles. I have got some serious criticism by a few on Fictionmania about writing these things, but sometimes I just see in a caption an idea that I think calls for a story. People will know that so...
2022-10-30 21:20:04 +0000 UTC View PostErin is a muse but also my publisher, and she is very keen for me to put together another collection of science fiction stories on Amazon. My first of those books was "Space and Time for Romance" published in February and got some great reviews. So I am pulling something together and ...
2022-10-30 21:14:23 +0000 UTC View PostI don't do magic stories. Plenty do, but I don't. It is just that for me the best fantasy is one that might just come true, and magic never happens. But Melissa Quenya is not me ... well, not much me.
2022-10-30 21:04:45 +0000 UTC View PostI have come back from holiday and there was a story brewing in my head which required me to write this down, but I think that it is only a chapter in a larger story based on this premise. It introduces the two characters and the question for me is whether it is the first or the last chapter...
2022-10-24 05:12:37 +0000 UTC View PostI encountered something like this - "my girlfriend will stay with you while I ...". I thought then that it deserved a story, so here that is.
2022-10-24 05:07:59 +0000 UTC View PostErin is also my publisher of books on Amazon, and due to the success of my past collection of science fiction stories she is very keen to put out "Space and Time for Romance Volume 2". She tossed this idea my way, and a few others (watch for next week) so I am building towards what she want...
2022-10-24 05:01:04 +0000 UTC View PostThis is the second collection of vignettes based on captions by Annabelle Raven. I have termed this "collaboration" because we have in the past corresponded on my stories sent to her in draft. Multi-generational transition stories are Annabelle's thing, accompanied with great images. ...
2022-10-16 21:38:24 +0000 UTC View PostHere is something that I came up with when thinking about my father - hence the title. What do you think of it, Dear Reader?
2022-10-16 21:31:19 +0000 UTC View PostAnother seed from the endless cornucopia of ideas that is Erin Halfelven. Here the subject is a suspicious boyfriend who needs a disguise to discover the truth. Erin knows by now how a story like this must end for me.
2022-10-16 21:15:12 +0000 UTC View PostHere is another redemption story, following on from "Sexpiation" just posted. This idea was sitting around for some time and I think it was also mentioned by somebody in a review of a story or an online comment - something to the effect of whether a rapist can truly be redeemed without unde...
2022-10-09 19:40:47 +0000 UTC View PostAnother military story from an idea by Erin as set out in the footnote. I suppose this could sit in another volume of stories set in isolated places.
2022-10-09 19:35:49 +0000 UTC View PostHere is a story that was started for inclusion in my Amazon anthology "Romance and Other Battlefields" (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09N1FLPYX) and it again (following on from my story "Berlin 1945") ficti...

I say the last but if somebody thinks there is more by her that calls for somethin ...
