Weekly Update - 7/10/24

I swear to you, at some point things will either get back to normal or I'll die, although I make no promises about which will happen first.

On Wednesday of last week, I started feeling the occasional bouts of nausea, like I was about to throw up, and never did, but they were rare and fleeting. My appetite dwindled over ...

Captains' Days - Ch. 3

Chapter Three

            Tommy certainly wasn’t used to being woken up in the middle of being blown, but this was the third day in a row he’d opened his eyes to see the elvish princess bobbing her head up and down on his cock. There was a ...

Weekly Update - 7/3/24

I'm back! I'm alive! I feel mostly better! Aaaaaaand it's a fucking heatwave. Great. Juuuuust great. It's currently... 102F outside? Oh fuuuuuuuck this... Yeah, I'm typing this offline from a Chili's right now where I'm getting lunch and I'll post it as soon as I get back to the house. Most days I don't care that we don't hav...

            “General Bonner, forgive my bluntness, but you’re fucking kidding me, right?” Andy asked the General as ...

Weekly Update - 6/26/24

Spoiler: I'm not dead.

I want you to know - this was not a given. Most of the last week, I've been mostly lying in bed, trying to sleep, fighting off the heat, desperately trying to rediscover how to breathe easily.

It wasn't Covid. It was one of the worst head colds I can recall having in decades. My flatmate jo...

6/19/24 - Weekly Update (ish)

Those of you who are members of my Discord probably have noticed I haven't been online basically for more than a few minutes since Saturday. I cobbled together the public submissions last night, but other than that and firing off the most recent Neon Stonehenge, I've barely been online at all.

That's be...

Neon Stonehenge - Ch. 8 (all readers)

Chapter Eight – “Enemy dance card”

Despite the fact that there wasn’t much of a connection between the Lady of Tides death and my runaway bride, I couldn’t help but feel like the two cases were connected. The Atlantean thread was there, but it was flimsy, at best. And as much as I wanted to ge...

            “You can’t mean to tell me our best option is to just sit here,” Andy said, pacing uncomfo...

Weekly Update - 6/12/24

This heat is fucking killing me. I've got the next chapter of Quaranteam Book Two just about done, so it'll get posted before I crash tonight. I need to nail the ending right, and hilariously enough, it's both a cliffhanger and yet not at all. You'll see when it drops, and I hope you'll like it.

Ve...

Weekly Update - 6/5/24

So much writing to do, so little time. I had a Day Job project spring up that ate up a little bit of the week, but thankfully, it was expected to just be 8-12 hours of work, and for once, the person pitching me the gig wasn't lying, and I finished it in under 10.

You can see from QT2:26 that while...

Quaranteam: Unbroken Mold - Ch. 4 (alphas)

Chapter Four

July 12th, 2020

Joe had been forced to sit and wait for a number of things in his life, but the time when Liv left him and when she and the others returned felt like it might as well have been a thousand years, even if it was only an hour or two at best. Tom had taken his gir...

Quaranteam: Unbroken Mold - Ch. 3 (all readers)

Chapter Three

July 12th, 2020

It was almost a full day after Tom woke up that he heard Meg and Mel waking up, so when he heard them starting to stir, he sprinted into the bedroom, closing the door behind him so that he could fill them in when they gained consciousness.

The first few...

Weekly Update - 5/29/24

I'm most of the way through the next chapter of Neon Stonehenge, which I'll finish up after I get up tomorrow and post for alpha level readers then. It's most of the way done now, but I'm super goddamn tired and I want to have some time to visit it under the light of day and make sure it's both lining up the ...

Neon Stonehenge - Ch. 7 (all readers)

Chapter Seven – “What We’re Calling ‘Penancewear’”

            I wish that anytime I took a case that all the rest of the daily shit that goes on in day-to-day living would simply drop by the wayside and I could just focus on whatev...

The Turn At Sin River - Ch. 1

(This is Chapter One of a small-scale story. I imagine it'll be 5-10 chapters long, but we'll play it as it lies.)

Chapter One

              There are only two schools of thought about the desert – either that...

Before The Storm - Ch. 12

Chapter Twelve

            The trip back to the planet was completely uninterrupted, something Sketch was convinced boded ill fortune for their dealing with the Harbormaster. There weren’t any signs of Y’bari cruisers or Starless Dominion b...

Weekly Update - 5/22/24

I'm in the process of finishing up the next chapter of Before The Storm, which was voted upon by the Voting Tier. I do love getting back into writing Sketch and the crew of The Praeteritus. They're one of my favorite stories to circle around to. That said, I want to get it right. So, expect it someti...

A Pack of His Own - Ch. 13 (all readers)

Chapter Thirteen

            A day before the Spring Gala, a note arrived at the diner for Will, informing him that it was semi-formal attire, but that he wouldn’t need a full tie and blazer, simply a nice shirt and slac...

Weekly Update - 5/15/24

Last week, I made the decision to return to Captains' Days, a story I hadn't touched in months, simply because it hadn't won any of the monthly votes, but Tommy's voice had been plucking at the back of my skull for a while. I've tried fighting those stories before. They end up slowing everything down until I ...

Captains' Days - Ch. 2

Chapter Two

             It had never occurred to Tommy that complete and total honesty would play such a big part in his life moving forward, but in the days since he’d captured Kaya, their inability to lie to one another had built the ...

Brewster's Brood - Ch. 37

Part Thirty-Seven

Jenny Westinghouse – 3/11/2017 – Sunday –11:27 pm

            Some people got off on the idea of anonymous sex, but it was clear that Max was getting a little nervous by the fact that he’d just ejaculated inside of a woman who ha...

Weekly Update - 5/8/24

I'm most of the way through the next chapter of Brewster's Brood, so I'll try and get that done tonight before I head out to my concert. I'm seeing The Mission UK tonight, and this time actually in San Jose.

I've told this story to a bunch of people, so forgive me if I've told it to you folks as well. ...

Before The Storm - Ch. 11

Chapter Eleven

            The idea of having a baby in transport was something that had happened countless times over the span of humanity, but it never got any easier, and Sketch didn’t care for the idea of being short-handed on the ship as...

Weekly Update - 5/1/24

Read anything interesting lately? ;)

With Quaranteam 2:25 dropping yesterday, I know a bunch of people are in shock, but all I can tell you is that this has been on the cards for a long time now. When I was on vacation a few months ago and I met face-to-face with the author of QT: 808, I gave him t...
