Sorry I've been quiet this month. I've working on a post about magic systems that will be up by Sunday. In the mean time, the pandemic has been on my mind, so this month's story is about current events in a world with uplifted animals. I have been wondered what a dog would be going thou...

I hope everyone is staying safe and following your local social distancing guidelines. I expect all of us are under a stay-at-home order of some kind. Currently, I barely leave the house, limiting my time out of the house to essential activities only. I’m working from home, s...
2020-04-12 22:42:39 +0000 UTC View PostTo celebrate my birthday this week, I've decided to put the sequel to A Moment of Darkness online today. This story continues to build up the relationship Ammar and Ezra have while still being a kinky story with a positive view on their relationship. This also continues with Ammar's ...

I had a few minutes before the fantasy panel I did today at Texas Furry Fiesta to draw a map to talk about during the panel. It is a bit rough, but it gets the point across.
2020-03-01 21:27:31 +0000 UTC View PostI haven't had time to revise the story I wanted to put up this month, so I decided to run a reprint. This story originally appeared in the book Knotted back in 2016, and is one of my favorite pieces. I don't write a lot of heavy kink, so this story and it's sequel are unique among my...

I wanted to take a moment to give you an update on the novel and where things stand right now. I did submit the book to a publisher back in November, but it got rejected. I did get some feedback on it I’ve been pondering. Since the book got rejected, I’ve passed it off to s...
2020-02-24 00:09:47 +0000 UTC View PostOne of the things it has taken me a while to realize is I can’t write a story without knowing the conflict that drives it. Tension is good, but until I understand the conflict and decide what that is, I can’t seem to bring the story toward a conclusion. I have always been more of a panster th...

I hope everyone had a good Christmas, if you celebrate, are having a happy Hanukkah, enjoying any holiday they celebrate, or at least not being too stressed by the holiday season if it's not your thing. I've been running around a lot for the holidays, and while I m...
2019-12-27 15:26:15 +0000 UTC View PostThis month's Patreon story is the vampire fox story I've been poking at. This is actually the third attempt at a story with this protagonist, Radic. I was working on attempt number two earlier this week, and while that reached a near complete first draft, I was still unsatisfied with it. Howe...
2019-11-30 19:44:01 +0000 UTC View PostEditing is a big part of the writing process. The words we write in our first drafts aren’t always very good. Spelling, grammar, and stylistic issues often exist in these early drafts. I’m not able to give you a comprehensive view of how to improve your fiction in a single post, but I do have...
2019-11-19 19:01:00 +0000 UTC View PostWriting is inherently a lonely profession, and posting on the internet is throwing something out there into the ether. You never know how people will respond to it, or even if they will. It's been a journey doing this, and since it's #ThankYouPatrons Day, I would be deeply remiss to not say...
2019-11-19 15:22:38 +0000 UTC View PostHey guys, been a little busy this month doing novel edits, so I don’t have a lot I can share right now. I do have some scenes for a vampire fox story I’ve been wanting to work on, but haven’t been able to squeeze in. I’m actually doing some final tweaks tonight so I can submit the n...
2019-10-31 02:00:13 +0000 UTC View PostI've been hard at work on novel stuff this month, but I still need to write a new story for Patreon this month. First though, I'd like to offer you one of my older pieces that was published back in 2014 in Trick or Treat 2, published by Rabbit Valley:
This is something I’ve pondered for a while and would like to talk about. First though, for those of you now familiar with the Bechdel Test, a definition. This test is a way to measure the role of woman in movies that is increasingly being applied to fiction. The test has three simple criteria:...
2019-09-30 21:47:02 +0000 UTC View PostI have some other content I want to post this month about the novel, but I've been head down on editing the novel. Thus, I'm going to put up Chapter 2, which is the second half of the novel preview.

The desert moon shines like a jewel in the night sky, full and bright, watching over the caravan town. Now that the sun has set, the dry air is cool, and the wind shifts lazily over the dunes, ruffling my fur. With ...
2019-09-02 21:51:34 +0000 UTC View PostYou'll notice I just posted a piece of world building tidbit about the novel today, and have not yet posted the sample chapter I promised. I'm sorry about that, but things got a little backed up. Both of these posts have been quite serious. I've also for the last few days been tracking a hurrican...
2019-08-31 22:47:53 +0000 UTC View PostI’d like to talk about some of the research that’s gone into the world building for the book. Research is critical to writing a book like Scars of the Golden Dancer. For this discussion, I’ve included citations, should you the reader wish to read up on the topics I’m going to dis...
2019-08-31 22:41:26 +0000 UTC View PostThe originally concept for the world that Scars of the Golden Dancer is set in came to me in 2010. The year before, Eurofurence’s theme was the Arabian Nights, and I recall looking at some of the art for the con and being fascinated by it. A specific piece of art with a fennec prince c...

This month and next month, I’ll be working on finishing editing my first novel, Scars of the Golden Dancer, in preparation to send it to a publisher. This project has been in development for a very long time, but slowly it has come together. The story is complete, and I’ve ...
2019-08-04 19:04:01 +0000 UTC View PostFor a Patreon marked as 18+, I've posted surprisingly little adult content, and nothing sexually explicit has appeared here yet, until today.

You've got a plan. You have a plot. The characters have agency over the story. You have world building to support your setting and characters. ...

I've been doing some thinking, and I made a decision that I think will benefit all my patrons. I've decided to merge the $1 and $5 tier to be a single $3 tier.

2019-07-12 00:44:05 +0000 UTC View PostI wrote this story last year, when I first heard that Straight Pride was a thing. Like the protagonist, I was angry about this form of culture jamming. Being LGBTQ+ can be hard, and I want to be proud of who I am. Yet sometimes I feel society in general just want to but us all back in the clo...
