Something old, something new
3 years ago
And an exciting announcement!
Hello everyone, time to finally become active here too! Thankfully I am growing more and more productive, enough that I feel confident in making three (hopefully) exciting announcements!
1. Something old: over a decade ago, I got my start in furry writing co-authoring Pokémon stories with Pokegirl. Unfortunately, a mix of "oh god, old writing of mine," depression, and some weird idea that I was 'beyond' writing fanfic and needed to focus on 'real' writing led me to delete them on SoFurry. We all make dumb mistakes. With one exception I will be reposting those older stories, starting with My Summer Flame, a F/M human/Ninetales one-shot. Forgive any flaws, they're probably mine!
2. Something new: for at least half a decade now since not long after her announcement, I've had an evolving idea for a M/F human/Salazzle story. It is now complete. At 122 pages and 37.8k words across four parts, with at least two more installments planned, it is the longest project I have tackled since Feathers with Benefits. In fact, it's something of a dry run for my impending rewrite of that series; I wanted to be sure I could tackle the challenges of a longer work this time! See the posting schedule below. Also, art.
3. And a big announcement: I am officially launching my Patreon and SubscribeStar. As I'm still working on that whole "consistency" and "deadlines" thing, each is functionally a monthly tip jar. Due to the former's rather more draconian (and not in the fun way) content restrictions I may have to get creative with providing certain stories there. For one-time donations, I also have a Ko-fi!
The posting schedule is as follows:
Today: Art, NSFW art, more NSFW art, My Summer Flame, and Salazzle Dazzle Part One posted here; Part Two and an unrelated NSFW art (Resolute x vixen) are available early on Patreon and SubscribeStar.
Sat. 2/4: Salazzle Dazzle Part Two posted here. Salazzle Dazzle Part Three available early on Patreon and SubscribeStar.
Sat. 2/11: Art!
Sat. 2/18: NSFW art posted here!
Sat. 2/25: TBD.
Thu. 3/2: Salazzle Dazzle Part Three posted here. Salazzle Dazzle Part Four posted to Patreon and SubscribeStar.
Salazzle Dazzle Part Four TBD.
I have one other, shorter, multi-part story about ready to post, several stand-alones close to done, and am wrapping up the third and fourth part of Centaur for Disease Control. Once I have a better sense of where those chips fall, I will put out a revised schedule for y'all. If all goes well, I can have something new each month. Maybe more often! But, maybe less, I won't lie. Given I am of the Douglas Adams school of deadlines (whoosh), I don't want to commit to anything without having it actually ready first.
For Featherverse fans (though that's on SoFurry, likely won't migrate the old ones here), as mentioned above, Salazzle Dazzle was very successful practice for outlining, writing, editing, and reviewing a multi-part novella-length series. Centaur for Disease Control got away from me a bit (one part… no, two! Four! HELP) but the same is true there. I have updated my original worldbuilding 'story bible'—which, as further incentive, in part or in whole may make its way onto Pay/Sub (StarTreon? PayStar?).
In short, my great hope is to have it started before spring and start posting later this year. Again, can't promise until it's in my hands, but I have not forgotten y'all. I want the story as much as you do!
Until next time, enjoy today's posts, and stay tuned for more excitement down the road!

I am indeed rewriting it from the ground up. I forget where I talked about it on SoFurry; the original story was just a one-off "guy bangs gryphoness" that quickly started spawning sequels. Not a bad problem to have, necessarily, except for two issues: I hadn't put nearly enough groundwork into the world and story in the first place to have proper foundations for a longer work, and my mental health took a SHARP downward turn in 2016 and took several years to recover. Then there was a move, job changes, pandemic... yeah.
I'm trying not to think about it coming up on ten years since I posted the first part. ;_;
The responses to Salazzle Dazzle are giving me even more life, and I'm also coming to realize that I've mid-key been waiting for some sort of 'sign' or threshold for when I should do more than jot down ideas here and there. Some indication that I'm good enough or whatever. Aside from Salazzle Dazzle getting finished and going out... there really isn't one. Barring catastrophe, there's nothing stopping me from starting it. Which I have.
So!
To answer your question more directly: it will be much longer—I would not be surprised if the current word count (~36,000?) is how long it'll take just to get to the first sex scene. I plan to explore more of Riane and Torio's working relationship, friendship, and evolution into lovers. And then, because it definitely ended too soon, I'll keep working beyond the old stopping point: dating and courtship (particularly between two pretty different cultures), the court case and various other issues, and how things develop (personally, romantically, professionally... politically...) from there.
I can't make any concrete promises until it's done (as stated in the journal) but if it comes out like I'm hoping, if not better? I think you'll be more than satisfied. Thank you for the kind words! ^v^
