So Patreon's bold new "embrace the evil paramecium" site design appears to have broken the ability to display italics in stories. Since I use italics kind of, like, a lot, this is an issue. As it t...

2023-07-03 12:35:03 +0000 UTC View PostI am still not positive that is the title of Serrano’s story, but it is seeming increasingly likely. (It may be ”Something Hurricane” if I can figure out the something that i...

2023-01-22 20:05:14 +0000 UTC View PostSo, what now?
Some of you know that in mid–2022, I moved across the country to be close to an elderly parent who had been living alone and, after some (still ongoing) medical issues, needed...
2022-12-29 19:58:16 +0000 UTC View PostBut that’s a good thing. The serial’s name is subject to change, but this one is growing on me. (Nora would give me the side-eye for that line…)

2021-11-03 00:10:45 +0000 UTC View PostIn my extremely informal tradition of Halloween stories, I have a new one! This one's less creepy than last year's, and may be more unabashedly button-pressing, at least for certain buttons. (T...
2021-10-27 18:00:05 +0000 UTC View PostI will probably have a slightly silly and smashy Halloween vignette ready this week, which I will post as "bonus content" for all patrons—even just at the $1 level—before it goes up on FA if I ...
2021-10-25 15:33:56 +0000 UTC View PostSo, what’s been going on since we last spoke over a month ago?
As predicted, I didn’t get a lot of writing done since the last post. I’ve started the next Moira episode, but it...
2021-01-14 17:24:40 +0000 UTC View PostSo: the chances are I'm not going to be able to get a whole lot of writing done from mid-December through mid-January. I'm going to have family obligations, the stress of traveling during a pandemi...

2020-11-20 16:01:01 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a horror story for Halloween! It may have some disturbing images, depending on what disturbs you, and note that while it's not overly explicit, it's certainly sexual. 2020-10-28 18:00:04 +0000 UTC View Post

At this point, this is a sign that the scene I’m working on is, no matter how cute, wrong for the story in some respect. Maybe it just needs a little tweak, but there...
2020-03-06 01:08:46 +0000 UTC View PostI’ve been continuing to wrestle with writer’s block—while the Kani story is “flowing” a bit more than it was, it’s still not nearly as easy writing as Saida and Autumn, for reasons whic...
