Hello all!

I received a comment today asking whether my series "Adonis in Chains" was being continued (the last chapter of which was uploaded 2 years ago). I wanted to make my response a little more public so as to answer that question for anyone else who may be wondering whether or not I will be continuing the series.

Response to the comment:
"Short answer: Probably not, sorry.

Long answer: When I started the series, I didn't really have a direction planned and I very quickly hit a wall about what to do next in the story. Since starting AiC, I've had quite a lot of writing practice and feel like I've improved significantly, so much so that looking back on these early chapters is hard for me. If I were to continue it, I'd probably start from scratch, re-write these four chapters with a stronger idea of where I want the story to go and who I want the characters to be. I am, however, currently working on a number of other writing projects, some furry, some not, so I'm sorry to say reviving Adonis in Chains is fairly low on my "To Do" list, and I'm sorry about that. If I'm ever in the dark place I was when I started to write it, I may come back, but until then, thank you so much for your viewership. I hope you stick around for my other works, but I understand if AiC was all you were here for.

Thanks again x"

To Expand further-
When I started writing Adonis, I was in a real bad place mentally. Long story short, I had just left the only stable job I had ever had so that I could re-enter education; finances were looking dire and I was just in a absolute state of wanting to let go of all control of my life. That's where Adonis came from, a desire to just... relinquish everything that brought me anxiety and focus on the one thing that brought me joy: working out.
Since then, I flew through my higher education with flying colours and landed myself in one of the best financial positions I've ever been in; things are still precarious, sure, but I'm not worrying about whether or not I can make rent this month anymore. Also I'm still working out and am finally starting to look half decent after all these years =3
I didn't know what I was doing when I wrote Adonis, and I think you can tell that by reading it. It's not well written. Against all odds though, it connected me to some really cool people who trusted in my potential, and they've commissioned & encouraged me into a much stronger writer, to the point where I'm actually trying to construct a "normie" story to see if I can find an even larger audience. I'm glad that I wrote Adonis in Chains, but as it stands today I cannot continue writing it. If that hurts to hear... Well, maybe take a shot at writing something similar? After all, when I felt like there wasn't a story out there that spoke to me and my desires, that's what I did, and I'm happier for having done it.
Once my commissions are all complete and the core themes speak to me again, I'll see about rebooting AiC. But for now, thank you for listening. Your support legit means the world to me and I hope you continue to read and enjoy the stories that I put out for you, whenever I eventually get around to it ;P

Well hello there!

It took the best part of 3 years, but I can say with pride that From The Ashes Part 2: Champ In Training is finally complete and ready to upload, all 78,000+ words of it. You can check out the prologue HERE

I want to thank  PKRR for not only his patronage, but his patience in working with me to get this mammoth of a project completed; without his guidence, suggestions and financial backing I never would have been able to complete a novel length furry story!

This project took somewhere close to three years and a month to complete, it saw delays from every direction, even getting slowed down in the editing process by me getting covid just as I was getting ready to edit the last chapter! But we made it.

I will be posting a new chapter every Saturday. The story consists of a prologue and 10 full chapters, so by my calculations the whole thing should be up by September 3rd.

I hope you all enjoy.

I'm gonna take a little break for now, fully recover from covid, and then see what I can do for you all for being so patient with me.

Stay tuned =)

Uhh, hi again!

Man, I really lost control of this thing huh?

I'll try and keep this brief.

So, what's in store for this channel?

Well, I am most of the way through the final editing process to the sequel for From the Ashes and... well, it's over 75,000 words. Whoops lol. This novel will be releasing chapter by chapter on a weekly basis. I don't want to give an exact date, but I'm hoping to drop the prologue on you all within a few weeks! Once it's all out there, I'll be releasing the complete document for your reading pleasure. It's a hefty story, and took the best part of 2 years to write and another year to edit, so I hope you all like it!

What's gonna happen with other stories/commissions?

If I've learned anything over these last few years, it's not to rely too heavily on my sense of motivation for anything. Truth be told, I just haven't been feeling it for the longest time now. I greatly appreciate the kind words and the overwhelming love for Stable Hand in particular. But, I'm gonna say openly not to expect much more from me. Putting pressure on myself to create rather than allowing myself to express my thoughts as and when I need to, burned me out to a near permanent degree. I may upload a thing or two here and there if the mood takes me, but if you never hear from me again beyond Ashes 2 and another commission I have in the works, then by all means consider this my retirement post.
I have a full time job closely related to the industry I love, it's hard and long work, but it's far more rewarding than any of my previous jobs. The sad truth is, now that I am more comfortable with my position in the world and generally happier with my life... The need to unleash my creativity into horny little stories has waned to near absence.

Thank you all for your support, hopefully you stick around for whatever lies in my future on this site.

Well. 2020 sure has been a fucking year so far, huh?

I'm sorry that I've hardly posted anything this year, I doubt I need to tell you about what's going on in the world right now but needless to say the stress of all that accompanied with the unfortunate eviction from our home I haven't really been super inspired to write.

I just want to take a second to thank every single one of you who has watched my page or favourited any piece of my work. I see every one of you and it brings such a warm smile to my face to see people enjoy my shameless porn shenanigans. I'd particularly like to thank everyone who has commented/left a note, I hardly think I'm a particularly solid writer but your kind words make me feel positively professional.

With that being said, the home move is now done, general stress -aside from a little financial hardship- has eased and I think it's safe to say I'm ready to try and get back into it.

So, here's what I'm getting done:

Commissions
Commissions are still open and I'm actually going to do a little deal as 2020 has been an absolute arse for everyone involved and I feel like spreading a little charity. Any commissions, agreed upon and paid for before January 1st 2021 will receive a 25% discount (I'm going to limit this to the first 10 orders but I doubt I'm gonna get that much interest anyhow).
For all information about my commissions, please follow this link: https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/9460385/ but right now my notes are always open so feel free to drop in and say hi.

Upcoming stories
My horse TF story "A Strong Stable Hand" has done wild numbers compared to pretty much everything else I've ever done, I guess the gradual transformation market is a hungry one. With that in mind, I am eager to write more stories in a similar vein. I have a list of animals I want to turn folks into, but if you have any suggestions, drop them below!

Of course, those sorts of stories are super long-form and can take a while to write, so I will also be looking for some shorter stories to add here, maybe even add another chapter to Adonis in Chains.

Beyond that, I still have the follow-up to From the Ashes which I have gradually been chipping away at for the last near 12 months. This one is going to be a long one, so make sure to pull up a comfy chair and wear your finest smoking jacket, cause this beast is nearing full-on novel length. I'd say I'm about 75% done with the first draft, but that unfortunately doesn't mean I'm close to finished yet. I had hoped it would be completed before the end of the year, but that sadly doesn't look like it's going to happen at this rate, but I can still try!

Thanks for reading this far, again I really can't stress how much joy it brings me to see people react so positively to my work, it's made a difficult year so much more bearable. I hope you're all keeping safe during this difficult period, I know how lonely and hopeless life can feel sometimes, but you're not alone through this. Please feel free to reach out to me or someone you trust if you need to talk.

Love you all x

Hello all, as you may have seen I've posted a couple of transformation stories in the last week or so, so you can probably figure that I've got a little more time on my hands what with all that's going on right now. So, I have decided that it's time to open myself up for commissions once again. This journal will act as the temporary home for my Terms of Commission Agreement until I can make a more official post to refer people to in the future. So, if you're interested, keep on reading!

What do you do? –
I write short form and long form stories with a transformation / muscle growth focus. Feel free to look through my archive of stories to examine my portfolio. While Transformation and Muscle Growth stories are my area of expertise, I may be willing to write stories that cater to other fetishes, so please don’t be afraid to approach me with any idea, but do keep in mind I may decline the commission if I feel it is beyond my capabilities / comfort zone.

How much? -
$1US per 100 words (minimum $10 order) I will only be accepting paid commissions; I will not be accepting trades. Don’t worry if you order a $20 story and I end up writing a 2,500-word piece, I will only charge you for what was quoted. It should go without saying though, don’t ask for an intricate, detailed, world-building, gradual-TF extravaganza if you only have a budget of $10, I’ll either ask you to increase your budget or decline the offer outright.

How do I order? –
Simply send me a note with your request for a story, featuring things like whether you want the story to have a particular focus (Transformation; Muscle Growth etc.); if you have any story beats you want included (Time/location of story setting; transformation catalyst etc.); who you want the main character to be (species, gender, reference if possible); what your budget for the commission is; and any other information you would like included in your story.
I will try to respond to your note as soon as possible, once we are all happy and agreed to the terms, I will send you my PayPal address. When payment is received, I will begin working on your story.

How long will my commission take? –
This is a difficult question; some commissions take longer than others depending on how detailed/long the piece is. I would ask that you grant me at least 1 week per 1000 words ordered, though this time may vary depending on real life work and other commissions that I may be working on. However, to ensure you that I’ve not just taken the money and ran, I will be providing you with a google doc link to the piece so you can read it while it is in development, this way you can make story suggestions as I go too. There is one important rule about this however:
DO NOT SHARE AROUND THE LINK TO THE DOC!
If I catch more than one guest viewing the doc at one time, I may well cancel your commission for sharing.

RULES –
1) Refunds – If you’re unhappy with the commission, I will offer you a full refund up until the half-way point in the story (or 3000 words in commissions that will extend beyond 6000 words.) Beyond that point, I will offer a 50% refund on the grounds that the story is of my ownership and I can continue to do with it as I please, be that to finish and publish it or to cancel it outright. If the story is close to complete (As in within 10% of the commissioned amount of words or in the editing stages) I will not be offering any refunds.
2) Communication – I will only be responding to Notes through Furaffinity. I will not be giving out personal information beyond my PayPal Address.
3) Refusal – I have the right to refuse service to anyone I deem fit, be this due to personal or professional reasons. If I am part way through your story and I do not feel the story will be up to a standard either of us will be happy with, I will fully refund the commission.
4) Story Sharing – Once published, you may post the story to your own page if you wish, I only ask that you include a link to my page detailing that I am the author of the piece in your version’s description.
5) I DO NOT RP – I have had people ask me before to “Roleplay out” the story before writing it to ensure that I know what I’m doing with the story and… no. I won’t be doing that.
6) By sending me a note to ask for a commission, you confirm that you have read and agree to all of the terms listed within this journal.

I believe that will be all, I look forward to speaking to you!

Hey friends!

First of all, I just wanted to say a great big thank you to everyone who read my latest story "A Strong Stable Hand" which has outperformed pretty much every other story I've written in the span of 24 hours, which is incredible. A hearty welcome to the new watchers off the back of that too!

I also wanted to let you know that I have another two stories in the works that are due to be released relatively soon.

One of which, for those who were fans of the first, is the continuation of  PKRR's commissioned story, where his phoenix character Blazes goes through a gradual muscle growth the hard way, being trained by his muscle fur husband. This entry will be more of a... Chapter 2, part 1. The story we're writing together is actually faaaar longer than we had initially planned, so we're splitting out the opening couple of sequences to make the story a little more easily digestible; this "opening sequence" in and of itself is over 12,000 words long. Blazes and I are currently going through and editing the story to the best of our abilities, you should be expecting it pretty soon!

Other than that, I have an original werewolf transformation story coming out soon. I've finished writing it, I'm just putting it through editing and it'll get released when it's ready, but I'm aiming to have it done within the next week or two.

Beyond these two pieces and the continuation of Blazes' commission, I don't have many other plans for stories to come. So, once these two are released, there is a good chance I will be opening up for paid Commissions once again. I still need to iron out the details of how I'm going to organise that, but keep an eye out for another Journal entry from me if you're interested, or feel free to shoot me a note to book your place early.

I think that's all, thanks again to those of you who continue to read and enjoy my twisted perversions and call them art. I hope you stick around for all the future projects to come x

Ahoy.

This is just a quick update to say that I am still around, just re-evaluating a few things.

Without too much detail, I have gotten incredibly busy in my every day life and writing stories just isn't as engaging for me as it used to be. You'll still see some fun little things every now and again, I'm still working on a part 2 to From the Ashes (Sorry Blazes), and I do intend on keeping up with Adonis. However, generally I'd suggest not anticipating anything from me in the near future, least of all commission works that I'm not already working on.

Big love to all who have enjoyed my work and continue to stick around to grab the little bits that I drop once every other blue moon; I never really anticipated anyone would give a hoot about my incoherent horny scribblings, so I am mightily grateful for what attention I did receive.

Whew. So some of you may be wondering where I've been the past few months. Truth be told I've been mighty busy working on a hefty commission that should be coming out within the next month or so. It's currently over 18,000 words long and has been a grand old time to write; I am just going through an edit or two with the commissioner before it gets the green light to get posted.

So, what does this mean moving forward?

Well, now that my plate (at least for the time being) is now empty, I will be opening commissions back up shortly. The next journal post I make will be to announce the re-opening of commissions and the new price-list.

If you'd like to get a head-start in getting your place in the queue, feel free to message me with your idea and I'll let you know the costs in private.

I'm looking forward to working with you again!

Howdy friends!

So since opening up for commissions about two months ago, I have received a few jobs (one of which was uploaded today and you should check it out!) from some lovely furs and have been tapping away at them for a good ol' while now. Obviously, with how busy I've been on these I have not been able to update Adonis In Chains, my pet writing project. The fourth chapter is about half written at this point, but is still likely a ways from being finished.

But what I wanted to say to you all is that further commissions are closed for the time being. The reason is simple, while I have met some lovely people through the commission work, it is taking away from my personal time and I feel I still have an awful lot to learn about commission writing in the furry community. Slots will likely only be closed for a couple of months or so, but I do have some exciting projects in the works in the meantime.

One of those things being that I plan on recording an album this year. Since late 2016 I have been stretching my musical wings and doing sweet aerial tricks. I've written/co-written 14 songs which I wish to get recorded someday soon and get out there, cause I am super happy with the way some of these songs are sounding. These aren't furry related, so I doubt they'll be posted here, but I may link to a bandcamp page or something when it's all done with.

TL;DR - Once I've finished this batch of commissions, I'll be taking a break from writing to work on other projects and to figure out how best to do commissions in the future, but still feel free to message me if you would like a commission! I probably won't be able to get onto it right away but I'd love to hear from you!

Hey y'all!

So it's been brought to my attention that the file type I've been using to upload stories (.odt) is worse than heckin' useless and I apologise for this. Long story short, the fact Microsoft office is now a yearly subscription rather than a "you buy it, you own it" kind of deal is less than helpful, so I've been using an open source program which is great unless you want other people to read what you're writing. The software does allow me to save the files as .docx word documents but apparently FA does not like them at all, which is why I stuck to .odt at first.

However, I have learned that I can save the files as .doc (which is still supported by word) so I am currently going through the old files and replacing them with these (hopefully easier to view) documents.

I apologise to anyone who has had difficulty reading my stories up to this point. Especially to those who had to open the damn things up in Notepad, y'all are brave brave furries.

In other news, story requests are still closed and will be for the foreseeable future. However, if you do wish to commission a short story from me, please send a note my way with the sort of story you'd like and how long you want it to be, and I will let you know how much I charge. I already have a commission on the go though so please understand that it could take me a while to get started on anything new.

Yes, Adonis in chains is still being worked on, I'm just struggling to get through chapter 4. It contains a lot of things that I'm not entirely familiar with in regards to BDSM acts, so I'll be seeking advice from friends of mine who know a heck of a lot more about it than I.

Tl;dr - FA wouldn't let me upload good file types, uploaded bad ones instead, now replacing bad files with better files. No more requests but commissions are A OK.

Hoo boy, well I firstly need to say thank you to the kind people who have enjoyed my stories so far, I haven't made many but the response to them has been surprisingly positive for a hobbyist like me!

But after the latest uploaded story I think I should, for now, close the free request floodgates. Requests are an important source of experience and practice for nobody writers like me, but the influx of requests has gotten a little hectic so I'm putting a kibosh on them until I can clear the air a little.

If you would still like to inquire about a request, do feel free to shoot me a note, but I am limited by my own abilities as to what I can write. I hope y'all can understand.

Hey howdy hey there friends!

Okay, first of all, I want to say thank you to the people who just started to follow me since I began posting the first few chapters of Adonis in Chains, I didn't expect anyone to enjoy this dumb little project of mine but I am super happy to have caught the interests of some like-minded furs.

I just wanted to bring up the topic of story requests. I've had a fair few people requesting stories from me, which is incredibly flattering by the way, and I just wanted to make it clear that I am open to story suggestions, but I may start to put a hold on the full-on requests. If you have an idea for something I could write, feel free to send me a note! I'm always looking for new story concepts. But, detailed story requests (i.e. "My OC goes to a place and does a thing") I'm going to have to politely decline at this time. Not to put too fine a point on it, but things in my personal life are getting awfully busy and I usually don't have time to focus on more than one project at a time. Should I feel my skill/ability to write fit the criteria, I may end up opening up for story commissions; but at this time, I am primarily going to focus on Adonis in Chains.

Again, please do feel free to note me with suggestions on things I can do, just please don't be disappointed if I decline any further requests from this point.

Love,

Nate x
