$20 patron benefit: Our Time Was Now

And here's your copy, party people. I hope you enjoy the heck out of it!

3OS IS DONE, Y'ALL

w00ha! We got ourselves another trilogy, folks! The final book in the TIOS series is completed, and the book is off for review at Amazon. It usually takes around 24-36 hours, though they say it could be up to 72. Regardless, as soon as it's up, I'll let y'all know where you can find it. I got a h...

3OS Update, aka Forever Northside update

All righty, cats and kitties, we have ourselves a novel! The first draft was completed this very morning and I think I'm pretty happy with how the conclusion/wrap-up turned out. We now have a title for the book: Forever Northside, and I think the cover art will be along the lines of the previous ...

Short Story: Reparations

Whew! OK, so let me say up front, my intention is *not* to be political, and while the title is certainly a political buzzword in modern American politics, I don't think this story does anything to take a stand. Still, if you're easily agitated or triggered, feel free to sit this one out and I pr...

A Funny Thing..., and an announcement regarding commissions

Howdy folks! Thanks for your patience while I've been living and thriving and struggling and all that with life the past few weeks. I had my yearly "week o' D&D" get-together with some friends, and have also done a bit of soul-searching and adjusting.

First off, and most fun, here's a r...

Officer Friendly, final

Pretty and proofread for ya. I updated the original post with the new files, but wanted to make sure folks got the notification if they were waiting on the final. More to come!

Toddverse: Friendgame

I'm alive! I'm so sorry it took me so long to post anything, but I wanted to wait until I had something fun to share by way of apology for my long silence. About two weeks back I discovered that I had inherited something else exciting from my father, a case of gout! Gout is a severe form of arthr...

Lesson Plans, a TIOS Story

So I'm back in the realm of getting to write my own fan fic! This time around in revisionist histories, we get back to our core cast and focus on none other than Kristiana Coszic-Lewandoski, a.k.a. Miss C. After whetting his appetite for teacher flesh on the sub Miss Galvin in the previous instal...

Back, and back at it!

I am back! My vacation was fantastic, and I say that even though through the course of it I had an ulcer, a migraine, a cold, sun poisoning, and a car wreck. (I'm OK, car survived, poor animal who darted in front of me not so much. :( ) Still, I saw some really amazing sights through the central ...

Commission: "Upstairoids: A Public Service Announcement"

This story is set back in the early to mid 80's, but that's not when I mean when I say there's history. This story was for the winner of July 2018's monthly drawing, and through a combination of delays, pondering, and plain old bad communication, it is just now completed. A round of applause for ...

Chapter and Verse

When I was a (much) younger man, I used to want to get into ministry. It was a passing phase, thank goodness, and I abandoned the idea long before it took root, but between my own Lutheran roots and my years working for a Catholic college, I've been around a lot of religious people. Not to critic...

Monthly Freebie: Achievements Disabled

A long time back, I started, but never got very far with, a story called Mod World. I play enough PC video games that I fiddle around with the occasional mod for them, and it won't shock you to learn I'm prone to rendering the women in my game world prettier and rounder. 

This story is...

Commission: Alice's Smartpartment

Here's a new one folks. The commissioner had some ideas for how they wanted it to go, but left the mechanism for the control, by and large up to me, with only a few caveats. I got to thinking about it, and I remembered Neighbors From Back When, and how there had been a lot of valid criticism that...

Commission: Sub Notes (A TIOS Story)

So this was a wild and different kind of experience. Some people I know basically only read fan fic these days, but it's not a genre I've ever really gotten into. Then lo and behold, along comes someone to request some. Ergo, here you have Sub Notes, set in the This Is Our Story universe, writing...

Benefit adjustment survey

Man, I feel like an insurance agent, writing that. Anyway, to get a little firmer feedback, here's a quick poll on what you'd like to see happen with what may (or may not?) be a slightly smaller volume of commissions. Mostly looking at the $5 crowd, since commission access is their main benefit, ...

3OS, Chapter 6 & commission announcement

Since TIOS is at least in part a story about life in high school, I try to include some of those tropes. This particular chapter is the senior's final k-12 spring break, with a couple TIOS-imposed twists to make it a little more fun. With each book, I try to pick an early-ish chapter to tease the...

Commission: Between The Lines

A fresh commission, hot off the presses. Maybe just a little bit meta on this one, writing about a guy who wants to publish a book. His book, however, is definitely way better than mine. :)

Anyways, enjoy! Hope you had a good weekend and are ready to slog through what comes.

Commission: Broad Cast

This one came from a really fun idea, fun enough that I got carried away and went insanely over budget and just said screw it because I wanted to keep going. (Not something I plan on making a habit of, but just this once...)

This centers around a young boy in the early 60's. (It was suppose...

Commission: The cosplayer

 Here we have a sequel to an oldie but a goodie, The Wizard. The protagonist is new, but that rascally wizard is still the same, this time working his magic on a cosplay girl at a convention. She's dressing as Anna from the video games series Fire Emblem, though with a few little tweaks alon...

Oopsie

That's the name of the story, not me apologizing for anything. This is the belated December monthly commission drawing (and props to the drawing winner for being so patient!). 

I often compare writing on commission to doodling with crayons. Sometimes, you've got the lines all sketched ...

We, The Nighthawks, now available on Amazon!

OK, so for the record, I *did* have this completed by my original goal of Christmas, but Amazon only now approved it. (Some of you amazing folks have already gotten a copy before I even got the email!) So here it is, everybody, book 2 of the This Is Our Story saga, 2018-12-27 08:26:05 +0000 UTC View Post

Your copy of We, The Nighthawks!

Thanks so much for your on-going support, everyone. You are the freaking bomb. Here's your copy of We, The Nighthawks! It's still in review on Amazon, so you're getting the final edition earlier than anyone else on the planet. And if I fucked something up, don't tell me, because it's too friggin'...

Rough draft completed!

As of this morning, my rough draft of We, The Nighthawks is complete! The word count at the moment is a whopping 126,476 words, around 300 pages. I loved writing every word of this sucker, folks. It makes me want to go career on magical yearbook erotica and see if I can't make bank. :) I may yet cha...

My New Girlfriend, Christmas edition

Heya folks! A nice person recently contacted me to commission me to write a Christmas-themed companion piece to My New Girlfriend, much like the Valentine's Day one I did a while back. I decided I had a better vision for how to address that story line, so I considered this kind of a re-do and starte...

'Tis the season

Life is good, folks. New mouse that has a working scroll button, new keyboard that has a working space bar, and a new monitor that let's me actually function in a split screen universe. I've had a 27" for a long while now, and I've been able to sort of squeeze two screens side by side, but it's neve...

Thank you!

Seriously, thank you. Up front, for those of you not inclined to read the rambling gratitude of your erotica peddler, there is a gift attached, so feel free to cut to the chase and scroll down. For everyone else, both of you... :)

I am one of not many people I know who has the privilege to do some...

Comission, On Pleasant Street

Here we have one of the month's free commission drawing winners, a lighthearted -- dare I say pleasant? -- little piece about a guy who gets something (or someone) delivered to the wrong address. Short and sweet. More to come!

Early Release: The Curio Shoppe: ... Or Treat

Whew! This is only barely an early release, provided Simon manages to get it up on the EMCSA this week. (And if not, bless his heart anyway because I totally sent it to him at like 4am the day of the update.) Regardless, we return as usual to Mr. Jasper's Curio Shoppe, where he has just the thing fo...

Pumpkin Spice

Here's one of our three commission winners for this month, who awesomely requested a continuation of Pumpkin from back in March. It's fall now, and in the U.S. at least, that can only mean it's time for one thi...

Commission, InfiniReach

Here's something for ya! This one's about a service that allows one, for a premium, to rent anybody they like. Here, a generous and somewhat kinky girlfriend hooks her boyfriend up with an opportunity that winds up going way out of proportion to either of their intentions. Fun and smutty, folks. Enj...
