Time Spent Off
Posted 8 years agoHello Everyone,
If it has not been obvious, I've been pretty much gone from writing and furry stuff for about two months now. I'd just like to say sorry to you my readers and some of you in particular who have reached out to me and not received responses. Trust me when I say that I have read all of them and it always meant something to me that people bothered to reach out even when I lacked the energy to respond.
I've been busy with work and with school, only having a couple hours each evening to decompress before having to head into bed, time which I needed to devote to class-reading and homework. But truth be told, I've had more than enough time for hours of mind-numbing youtube and catching up on my favorite anime. I'm honestly a very lazy person at heart, but I should never be too lazy to respond to people... only sometimes its embarrassing, especially when responses come with obligations to respond in the RP's I'm currently engaged in.
I haven't gotten back in touch yet, but I will be in touch soon, I just wanted to get this off of my chest. I've been in a writing mood also, so expect to see some new stuff from me soon, both here on FA and in my RP's.
I should clarify for all of you enjoying my and Yjay's very long RP concerning some extremely plus sized dragons. We talked about it and considering the amount of material for the whole story and at least 200 more pages yet to be released, we decided that we would like to commission a cover and a few accompanying pieces of artwork and release it for as an illustrated novelette. It will take a while yet, the story is not yet completely written after all, and we still need an artist (hopefully one willing to work for a share of the revenue!), but I fully expect that this could be done inside of another year, barring anymore extended hiatuses. This means that there will be no more chapter updates on that story here; I may release chapter 10, just so that there is an even 100 pages of free material... But I will be releasing other material I haven't posted yet, mostly more unfinished stories lol; unfortunately this does not include any Kiara or Nala chapters just yet XD
Anyways, here's to hoping to do a better job balancing life, work, pleasure, and friendships in the future! =)

Unfinished Stories
Posted 8 years agoHello Audience!
I just wanted to ask you all a simple question, what is your opinion on reading a story online that's not finished and perhaps may never be finished? Is it still worth reading?
Unfortunately, I have accumulated a backlog of half- or less! - finished material and some of it is so old at this point, I am not sure that it ever will be complete. And some of these are pretty lengthy, upwards of 50 pages long, the first quarters or halves of unfinished novellas! Question is, how much would you want to read one of these, and also, would it be better to include an author's spoiler for the intending ending or let you imagine where the story might have gone from its last words?
Let me know your opinions below!

On the Importance of Plot in Fetish Erotica
Posted 9 years agoHello everyone, It's been a long time since I last updated my journal, but since I've been posting content fairly regularly lately, I thought it's about time.
First let me sweep the topic of the last update under the rug by saying that none of it went anywhere in particular, sorry to say XD. My most active projects right now include the new LK fan fiction starring a very pregnant Kiara as well as an RP currently in the works with
gahtren concerning the adventures of two very large individuals who happen to board a cruise liner headed for a very unusual destination. My intention is to post the RP as a story here upon completion. I also intend to finish "Leviathan" though while I am about 75 pages into it, I have not brought myself around to working on it in the past couple months =/. There is also another big project I was working on a few months ago titled "Sigma Draconis," which involves a hibernation malfunction aboard a sub-light starship bound for a nearby star and heavy emphasis on altering the ship's acceleration to change the effects of gravity on our extremely large protagonist. "Sigma Draconis" stars a human woman as lead, but I hope that will not turn off too many of you. But it is another ambitious project that may or may not be finished anytime soon, unfortunately =/
Lastly, I'd like to mention that I recently got my hands on a copy of "The Dictator's Handbook" and that I find the study on the nature of power in politics to be fascinating and not just in an educational sense, but it was very close to the story I had wanted to tell featuring an obese cat patriarch in a feline underworld of a quiet, suburban town. I had wanted the story to be a vehicle for my thoughts on power, both politically and in the realms of sex, pleasure and decadence. I can see that the story will need a complete rewrite now, so you all will benefit soon from seeing the aborted first draft XD
But mentioning that, we come to the main topic of the journal. I happen to feel very strongly about this, but what is the role of a good plot in erotic fiction anyways? I mean, isn't is just supposed to be fapping material? The actual story is not what is getting people off, right? It's the sexy descriptions, the foreplay, or as is often the case in my work, the gratuitous descriptions of mounds and rolls of fat on the characters. Sometimes I wonder if I am holding myself back by trying to include these complex themes in stories meant to appeal by sexual gratification as much as pure literary value. I have certainly now abandoned many projects which I have felt did not appeal in some way, shape or form, and I am still afraid to take commissions given my difficulty in completing even story concepts which do appeal to me and that I have spent a good deal of time thinking about before I ever type a single word. And maybe I am foolish for trying, foolish for often making the work harder than it has to be, and giving up before the end as a result.
But I'd like to say that the reason I write the way I do is because I write, first and foremost for myself. These are the kinds of stories I like to imagine in my head when I am by myself and in the mood. I feel a strong preference for erotica which has a strong story capable of engaging my attention, even if there were no fetish content in it at all. Shouldn't a reader be made to care for a character first and foremost before being engaged with whatever gets a rise out of them? It's been my opinion for a long time that a good story will enhance the erotic feeling in the reader beyond what the mere fetish content alone is capable of providing, even if it means reading through long passages without that dopamine release of reading the content your lizard brain is looking for.
Having said that much, in trying to stitch erotic content into a self-competent story in as elegant and pleasing a way as possible, I would like to share a sort of theory I have in regards to trying to craft a more elegant and compelling story, though I have no way in knowing if it is correct or not; but I have a feeling it is, just by my reaction to my own words. My theory is that the fetish content in a story, the fat descriptions, the mention of weight, of breathing, or of largeness, is a form of story tension that is similar to regular tension that exists in all good stories. Being aware of this 'sexual tension' the reader feels in reading erotica, you might be able to do more deliberate things like mount that tension steadily throughout a story until you reach a climax - no pun intended XD; I think a lot of people do that naturally, though, without putting the idea into exact words. But I think that where some people might get confused is that this 'sexual tension' is fueled by largely separate items in the story than what fuels regular tension, and I am sure it is the fault of many a piece of fap fluff that they fail to include any or minimal tension or conflict at all.
When a reader seeks out a piece of erotica, they are expecting to get regular hits of dopamine from the material that strikes their particular interest, and these hits, large and small, fuel continued interest in the story. I think this is similar to, but different in significant ways, to the expectation of rising conflict we have been trained to expect in stories. And I do think that there are differences between this expectation and the standard expectations of tension in another story, but this is already much too long and I fear heading off into speculation land =P
But I would love to hear any an all of your thoughts on the matter, how important is plot when you are looking for erotica? What stories have you liked the best, and why? What makes a good piece stick in your mind and make you want to come back to them multiple times?

In Need of a Twist
Posted 10 years agoHello Everyone!
I hope this journal does not seem too off topic considering the subject of the last one and the fact that I've so far produced neither of the two projects which I had been considering finishing. Just goes to show that I have no ability to concentrate on one task XD. But I promise that I will get back to them! I thought I would never finish Stranded when I was in the thick of it, but eventually I did, and several other stories since then.
My entry today actually concerns an idea I've been kicking around for a couple weeks now. What if a 450 lb man was offered $20,000 per year to gain up to 500 lbs, with the provision that if he ever got below 500, the money would stop forever. Obviously the man agrees and is then lured to higher and higher weights by promises of extra money and his own lack of self control once the gaining starts.
My problem is one of motivation. I'm having trouble thinking of a reason why someone might want to go to the trouble of doing this to another person. Obviously, this person has to have access to lots of money. I thought that maybe the main character meets a female feeder in the process of his gains and it is later revealed that she is the daughter of the person paying out the money and that she wanted to create a male dependent sex slave for their daughter. But this seems simplistic too.
Any thoughts on why someone might want this to happen? Maybe some twist in the background between the two characters? If I hear something good, perhaps I can release this story soon as a short .
P.S. Evolution Pt. 2 and the cat story are on hold for now. I'm actually a ways into a story similar to "Desolation of Tiamat" in that it involves macro/fat and the story of a world eater, but hopefully more fleshed out and enjoyable than Tiamat. I'm thinking of beginning to release it soon in small chapters. Nala's Venture also caught my eye and I'm bringing that story to FA in addition to adding a few more chapters. Hopefully, finally introducing Nala's weight gain mechanic, without spoiling anything here.

Deciding which project
Posted 11 years agoHello loyal fan base,
I wanted to let you know that I am trying to get back into the gear of things in terms of writing. However, I wanted to get some feedback from my audience.
I currently have two projects in the works, the first being Evolution Pt 2 and the second being a new story involving an extremely obese house cat acting as a sort of Don in the social affairs of a community of house cats and other pets in a sleepy European town. It's told from the perspective of a young tom who falls under the influence of this Don cat.
I also want to open up the possibility of returning to one of my past stories for either a sequel or a rewrite, or maybe you really want me to finish one of the unfinished stories that I have already posted here.
Please tell me what you are looking forward to the most.
Also, I am looking for proof readers, that is, people who are willing to do more than read through an unfinished piece once and tell me they like it. I'd like to find someone who's willing to really grill something that I'm in the process of writing and help me with directing the story and giving me feedback on pacing and other niceties so I can provide everyone with a better product at the end.
Finally, I am considering selling my next epic piece. I think that I might post the first chapter online here and on So Furry and sell the rest of the story for $0.99 a pop. Would you be willing to pay $0.99 for a story of mine?
Thanks in advance for taking the time to answer.

Well's Dry
Posted 11 years agoI hope you all have enjoyed the weekly doses of my works, unfinished or otherwise. However, I'm afraid that this concludes my backlog of projects, so I must humbly ask all of you watching to wait and bear with me through the great amount of time that it takes me to finish one of my stories.
Feel free to ask me any questions you like, except when the next story will be out XD. I respond to email and can occasionally be found on Skype, but don't expect me to spend hours chatting. I'm actually really busy most of the time!
I thank you all, dear readers, for sticking around. My audience is a huge motivator to keep writing. Also, I have been dabbling in sketching on my iPad, so there's a chance some awful sketches may come soon to my page, or more likely my scraps file XD. Until then!

More to Come
Posted 11 years agoHello loyal fans,
I know it's been a long time, but I appreciate those of you taking the time to read my words after so long an absence. First, I'd like to inform you that after four long years of searching, I have finally found a full time position in a laboratory which fits my background at least reasonably well. I'm making much more money than I was previously as a car insurance claims adjuster and the job itself is more satisfactory. I'm on salary for the first time in my life and I appreciate the newfound trust and freedom, so far I've not been abused by a heavy work-load or an expectation to be at the office greater than 40 hours a week. I am hoping that this new job will be a great fit for me for the long term, and will likely overall increase my quantity of free time from what it was before.
If you look at my gallery, you'll see that I posted a new story. This is actually a very old story from around 2007 or so. The story itself has a great deal of meaning to me beyond the mere letters, it was a big learning period for me in its writing, not just in the art of writing itself, but in discovering my own sexuality itself. I explored the ideas near and dear to my passion and at the time, I was new to the very concept of a "furry;" in fact I was exploring both Furraffinity and websites like zoophile.net and various yahoo groups at the time as well. It took time for me to develop a sense of what my orientation was and my tastes developed and changed even in the course of the writing of that single story. I was immensely pleased when I was able to finish Bovine Indulgence when I had not been able to finish my first attempt at a novel "A Rise of Dragons" which succumbed after the 3rd 100 page rewrite that I hated. In fact I was so pleased that as soon as I was finished I started a spin-off story that takes place during the events of Bovine Indulgence called "Rodney and Lauren.
I'll be posting the spin-off next week. Also, the following week, I shall post a story which I started but have recently decided to discontinue. I got quite a bit done, but lost the sense of the story after the conclusion of the first plot arc. I think it functions ok as a short story on its own. The title is "Size Matters."
I can't promise more regular posting after that. My current projects include: Evolution Pt II (of course) as well as a cat themed novel titled "The Large One." I am also working on a Narnia fan fiction called "A Dragon in Narnia" which explores the idea of Eustace Scrubb remaining as a dragon during the events of "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader." In that I hope to give Lewis's straw man for an educated liberal elite (even if he is still a boy) a more honest treatment. It is not weight-gain related. Also, don't ask which will be out first as I honestly couldn't tell you now.
That's it for now. Sorry again for the long absence, but I hope you will like the new/old material to read for the next few weeks.

Lion King Interactive has moved
Posted 12 years agoMatt has decided to move the Lion King interactive from writing.com to Deviant Art and I fully support the shift. Deviant Art may not supply a ready-made template for an interactive story, but by linking chapters together in the new #LKinteractive group, we can achieve the same effect as before and with none of the annoying restrictions writing.com imposes. We're no longer limited to two chapter choices and especially there is no longer any character limit per chapter to stifle me.
I've been grating against the damn character limit of writing.com almost since I started there. So I might as well say now that I'm moving away from Writing.com now almost entirely. A lot of my writing remains there, but you are not likely to find new material there moving ahead. That said, I'm pretty much moving away from interactive stories in general aside from the exception for Matt.
I have a So Furry account now, and the interface is going to allow me to more easily post individual chapters as I write them, providing the key service that I had looked for in the interactives. Expect my So Furry account to become my primary account over the course of 2013 and the years to come.

And the new LK interactive here: http://lkinteractive.deviantart.com
Here's wishing you all a very fattening new year!

Evolution Is Complete
Posted 13 years agoHey all, I just want to say that today I very proudly finished the last word in my story "Evolution: Part I." OK, the story isn't really complete, but it is broken into two Parts. Part I is finished at last after over a year of writing. Like usual, most of that time was spent on hiatus, but over the last few days, I surged past those mental blocks and finished that last 15% or so that needed doing.
Overall, I'm happy with the story. I'm happier with this than I was at the ending of "A Night at the County Fair." The ending may still be a little rushed, but not to the degree that Stranded or ANCF was. It is a little monologue-y, and perhaps it delves too much into philosophy where it doesn't need to, but for a story like this (WG fiction) I'm not going to take the time to go back and make a lot of cuts. What I can tell you is that there is an excellent story here and I managed the character arc of the protagonist in a really dynamic way. And obviously there's lots of great description of overweight canines ^^
Obviously, you should be asking yourself questions as you work your way through this piece. I'm not telling you the answers in Part I, but all of the foundation is here. Mostly, this is the story of Topsy and how he grows into adulthood. The hows and whys of his existence are to be answered in Part II.
Part II is utterly unwritten at this time and I don't plan on getting started right away. Theories and comments and speculation are welcome and encouraged, but I do have a basic plan in place. Part II is likely to be shorter than Part I and will take place inside the laboratory itself and Topsy will learn more about why things are the way they are and why he was born the way that he is.
Feel free to tell me what you think about Part I. I appreciate all feedback, no matter how negative. I'll never learn unless you tell me what you don't like. There are about forty chapters and I plan on releasing five a day until all of it is posted. I don't want to make the mistake of scaring away readers with a huge text doc. But if anyone wants the full document I'm happy to email it to you.
Thank you again for reading everyone and I hope you enjoy this work of fiction as much or more than my previous works.
Overall, I'm happy with the story. I'm happier with this than I was at the ending of "A Night at the County Fair."

Posting the interactives
Posted 13 years agoSo, after working for a long time on Writing.com, I've finally come to the conclusion that I need to look elsewhere to post my stories. I've become fed up with the 10,000 character chapter limit and the things that does to my editing and flow of the scenes I write. For those of you who might not understand the problem, please consider how it feels to spend several hours hammering out a scene just the way you like it and then having to go back and extract sentences to make it "fit" or having to break it into two parts. Breaking might sound easy, at least until you consider that you don't want lots of short chapters because the interactives have a 250 chapter limit linearly. Considering that I don't branch out my stories, the end of the interactive looms ominously every time I find myself having to make more chapters to display a single scene.
I don't want to do it anymore. So I'm looking for other options for my stories on writing.com. My coauthor Bmao from my Dragon interactive suggested putting it on Fur Affinity. Doesn't sound like a bad idea =P, however, how can I organize it so that a single story can be written by two authors?
The only thing I can think of is to post the story chapter by chapter and include hyperlinks in the description that leads to the next chapter, whether that be on my own account or my coauthor's. I know how to do this, yes, but is there an easier way?
I also considered starting a blog, but Bmao is afraid we won't get as much exposure to the right audience there. Does anyone have any experience with blogs who can offer an opinion?
I'm hoping someone out there might have a solution to our problem, so please comment if you have any thoughts

My Little Pony: Interactives are Magic
Posted 13 years agoHello everyone! It's been a long while. But I haven't been asleep this entire time. In addition to finally getting the new job that I needed, and taking a short break off from writing, I actually spent a lot of this time writing a new epic concerning a community of obese canines. I was and still am planning on releasing it once I finish Part I, however I seem to have gotten distracted by inter actives again =P But this means you folks can check out what I've been doing in the last couple weeks.
Most of my new chapters have gone into my Dragon interactive for those of you who are interested in the long story going on there, although if you follow it, you are already likely up to date. I've also decided to reboot a sub-plot from Sarabi's massive slew of chapters, except with Nala as the main character this time. In particular, I'm rebooting the ankh and goddess power subplot. Using Nala is a wonderful chance for me to use a stronger, more active character and also one that's not starting out with such a heavy frame to begin with. I definitely plan on filling her out, but Nala will offer us the chance to go from skinny, to wobbling round and bulky and eventually beyond. And as a point of interest, I alway really wanted to work with Nala, but when I began Sarabi's story, what I had been looking for was a blank slate to write my own story in. Nala's had been all taken at the time, so I resorted to Sarabi instead. I look at this reboot as a chance to real develop one of Sarabi's later subplots and with the character I'd always originally intended to work with as well.
But now for the topic of this entry. I pretty recently came across the FiM phenomenon, starting with hilariously gruesome youtube parodies, but quickly grew to love the show for itself as soon as I started digging into the actual source material. At this point, I can hardly deny that I am now, in fact, a brony. *gulp* yes a brony and proud to be a brony, goddamnit! Seriously, the show is awesome, go watch it on you tube if you don't believe me.
After I was converted, I immediately was filled with the urge to write ponies. I came up with an outline for a pony epic I thought was spectacular at first, but my cowriter from Dragon pointed out some serious flaws. It turns out that he is a new brony also. It did not take long for us to decide to write pony fiction together. He already had an big interactive up with applications for fan fiction, so I decided to help him out with it and a brand new story. The interactive is called Realm Drifter and concerns a young man and his dragon companion from a war torn world of technology and magic. He has been gifted with the ability to traverse into different fictional universes, hence the name. If any of you are a fan of my writing, and hopefully also a fan of the show, please check out what we've been doing so far. It's turning out pretty good in my opinion so far, and I think it will get even better in the future. Also, this is great practice for a larger pony story I still intend on writing later.
So if you want to see what I'm working on currently, check my inter actives and go here:
http://www.Writing.Com/main/interac.....43222222222222
This is where the MLP:FiM story branches off, but you'll want to read the preceding material as well.
Feel free to leave comments, I'm still a new brony, so I'd love to talk about its presence in the furry community. It already seems to be slowly taking over FurAffinity, at least from what I can tell of the new release page every time I check in...
JOIN THE HERD...!!!!
P.S. I just added the unfinished follow-up to County Fair in my Scraps. Check it out if you don't mind that it probably will never be finished =P

Stranded: Where the Manna Falls
Posted 14 years agoOMG!! I did it, I really did it! I completed "Stranded: Where the Manna Falls" at long last! It's been a long time coming - almost two years - but I'm so happy that I finaly got the fire lit up under me and enough steam to get the job done.
Honestly, I'm happy with the story. I resolved all the things that needed resolving and the flow of events is just as I imagined from the very start. The characters come around their arcs and meet suitable fates and the themes I wanted to convey through the story came through strongly I think. All of that, and with delicious fattness thrown in! =D
Stranded is 263 pages long so I think that qualifies it for "novella" size. Writing and completing a story that size is a new achievement for me as well.
I know it's not perfect. If anyone still has questions after reading the story (and please go back to the start and read again if it's been a while!), I'll be happy to answer them here or on the comments page of the story.
I am trying to bring something new to the Weight-Gain genre of writing. I want people to know that erotic fiction can be carried along by plot and characters and all of the elements that come together to make for a good story. I hope that Stranded is some proof that this is possible.
So... please enjoy my greatest work to date and don't be afraid to comment! =D

New Interactive
Posted 14 years agoSo, after a lot of time thinking about how I write stories and what motivates me to finish them, I decided to start up a new interactive of my very own on Writing.com, specifically for weight gain stories.
I find the incremental writing of an interactive to be just about the right length for an hour or two or writing. Then I can stop, keep writing, or even let someone else have a shot at it. Nothing sits around gathering dust, or at least, if it does, then it does no worse than on my desktop XD.
I like the pace, it fits my writing style, and people can see what I've written as soon as I write it, unlike the various unfinished projects that litter my documents folder. It has drawbacks of course, but it is so difficult to maintain that focus needed to finish a long story =(. It's much more fun to start new stories. Good thing I'm not an author by trade XD
I hope this does not alarm anyone. I have every intention of finishing my stories (at least the ones that are well progressed). Nothing has gotten tossed away. As it stands, I still have Stranded to work on. Also, I have about half of a follow-up short story to County Fair complete (Hint: the main character is Rose!). And I haven't forgotten poor Isen who's pictures I still adore.
However, for my most recent writings, please check out writing.com. I check both my e-mail there and FA most everyday and I am hungry for comments (and more besides!). So toss me an e-mail there, or send me a note here, I'll get it in short order
Here's the link to my new interactive, I hope you all enjoy reading it, and possible adding to it yourselves!
http://www.Writing.Com/main/interac.....-Weighty-Tales
P.S. I am restricting posting to the interactive in a way mentioned in the description. Everyone should know by now that weight-gain fiction tends not to rank high on the sophistication totem pole. If you want to start a story there, you can also message me on FA. If anyone can think of a better way to regulate posting, I'm all ears as well.

Big Cats: A Lion King Interactive
Posted 14 years agoHowdy all. Just wanted to let you know know that I am still here and still writing. I have a couple different things that I am working on and nothing is finished yet. I know its terrible to spread myself so thinly, and of course, there is always the call of WoW.
However, lately, I have been drawn back to my old interactive, Big Cats. I've been adding several new posts in response to posts another author has submitted. We've been adding pretty much every day now for the last few days, so there is a lot of new material. Sarabi remains one of my favorite characters to work with.
So stop on by and read the stuff that I've been writing lately as well as the segments added by other authors. It's a very high quality interactive and it has grown tremendously since I first found it. If you are new to it, I cannot recommend it highly enough. Here's the link:

Enjoy!

Sirius: a Fantasy of Love and Discord
Posted 14 years agoI recently came across an incredible work of fiction by a person named Olaf Stapledon. The title of the story is "Sirius: a Fantasy of Love and Discord" and it was first published in 1944 in war-torn England.
Sirius is the story of a dog who is gifted by science with super intelligence, on the same level as that of a human being. I know, simple premise, but remember, this was back in 1944. It was probably unprecedented at the time and really for decades afterwards.
This is such a rich, compassionate story. From the start, Sirius is conflicted and divided between his "human" spirit and cognitive needs and his bestial nature. He seeks to find a place in a world made by and for humans for himself. His journey is long and frequently filled with sorrow, stagnation, rage and even madness. Sirius seeks God and he also seeks himself.
Sirius is an artist and has a passion for literature and poetry and music. He even sings in a church in one of the most beautiful scenes in the book. He comments on the human condition as well and wonders what place a being such as he, not man and not dog or wolf could have in the very human world of twentieth century England.
I cannot recommend this book enough! It has such insight and the themes are powerful. Any dog lover here will soon adore this book. It has withstood the decades since it was written and remains a wonderful, moving fantasy.
Here's a couple of links. You can read it for free so there's no excuse not to!

County Fair
Posted 15 years agoSo, I am back with a whole new and fully completed story. Whoo! I am sure that you all are going to like this one. I've been working on it since the state fair rolled into town last year. It was meant to be a short story, but it certainly took on a life of its own and even at over 51,000 words, it's not as big as it could have been. Still, though there were somethings that I did not include, I am happy with the way the story has been laid out.
Before anyone asks, this is it, there is not going to be a sequel or anything else added to the story later on. However, I think that I ended this story well and whatever is left can remain up to the reader's imagination.
If you want to talk about the characters or the plot or comment on the story as a whole. This is the place to do it. I welcome all feedback, positive and negative so please don't be shy.
And yes, I am going to be getting back to work on Stranded shortly. I have a new writing program called Scrivener that I am still learning how to use and I am still learning how to use my mac in general, but sooner or later, I can assure you all, it will get done. =D
Anyways, I hope you all enjoy my new story and keep reading my demented fantasies

Hiatus
Posted 15 years agoHey everyone. By now it's pretty apparent I haven't been working on new chapters or material lately. A lot of this has to do with the fact that World of Warcraft: Cataclysm is just an awesome game! Worgen rule!
So... yeah. As the free time I have is now being drained by WoW, there's not much left for writing XD
Probably won't be submitting for a while yet either so I apologize for that. I do, however, have mostly written a new short story involving a very fat border collie which I will release at once when I'm done with it. But again, don't expect it anytime soon.
Sorry for the poor news, but I'm only worgen... er. human - sort of - I have my own things going on and only so much time left to devote to the things I like, such as writing or exploring the ancient mysteries of Azeroth.
I'll be back eventually. so don't write me off =P Take care everyone.

New Sarabi Posts
Posted 15 years agoI know I said that I'd probably not be adding to Sarabi's story on Writing.com any time soon, but recent activity there has vastly increased my interest for the last couple days. I just finished several hours of writing with a co-author friend of mine, taking turn posting on Sarabi's story. The end result: tons of new posts on the story! Not just one or two, over a dozen! I want everyone who is a fan of my writing to check them out. The story is located here:
http://www.writing.com/main/interac.....-Reign-of-Fat/
If you haven't read the story before, start at the beginning, it really is an intense tale of injury, capture and the struggle with own's own desires. Just pick Sarabi from the list of lioness characters, her adult years and an "Uneventful journey." You know the signs when you get into the interactive.
As if shameless advertisement weren't enough, I might as well go all out and ask everyone with even an inkling of writing potential or an iota of interest in fat lionesses to please add to the story. Interactives are a community project and just get better the more people work on them.
If you have any comments or suggestions for Sarabi's story. Post them here and I'll see them. And don't worry, the next chapter of Stranded will be coming out soon. Probably tomorrow. Good night everyone and Happy reading!

Back for Round Two!
Posted 15 years agoHi all! Been gone for a while (as if that wasn't obvious). Down in the dumbs as far as employment went and was devoting all of my energies to breaking into the market for which I spent four years in college. I wasn't about to settle for going back to Walmart or Harkins, and guess what, it paid off... somewhat. I got a part-time job! Whoo me!
Anyways, Stranded has been itching on my brain lately and I only know one way to scratch that particular itch So I'm bringing you fine folks some of my back logged chapters. By the time I run out of stock, I should have Stranded complete at long last, or that's the plan at least. Seventeen more chapters to go until the epilogue, or so I've planned things out, 11 of which remain unwritten. Wish me luck, hopefully my muse will hang around this time. I think it will, I'm finally now getting into some intense WG to keep my interest fueled. As always, don't be shy about comments, I love reading them and responding even more! (A few ego strokes never hurt anybody )
Chow!

Lion King: Reign of Fat
Posted 15 years agoHey all. I've been submitting some entries into this interactive story started by MattII. It's a Lion King Fanfiction, but has to do with weight gain. If you like the sound of that, or just want to see more of my writing why don't you take a peek and perhaps even add a little yourself. It's a big interactive and I hope you all get a kick out of it. =D

Graduation Imminent!
Posted 15 years agoHi all! I just wanted to rejoice in the fact that I am soon going to walking down the platform with hundreds of other graduates Thursday morning in the Wells Fargo Arena at Arizona State University! I'll finally have my Baccalaureate in Microbiology and Biotechnology. It's hard to believe that I'm finally done with school for now and ready to enter the workforce. Wish me luck in getting a job in my field!
Chapter Flipping
Posted 15 years agoHey all. I need some help. I'd like to put a link in the description of my chapters of Stranded that will let the reader just go to the next or previous chapter directly without having to navigate my profile. Unfortunately, I'm not particularly computer savvy so I have no idea how to do this. Can anyone help me put up links in the form of "Next" and "Back" buttons for my chapters?
1000 hits
Posted 15 years agoI just wanted to thank all my readers for making this possible ;). I'm glad enough people out there enjoy my stories enough to keep coming back for more =D. I feel like people out there really appreciate my stories and that is excellent motivation to keep writing them.
I know most of you out there are the quiet type, but I love comments on my stories and discussion. Don't be afraid to post, I don't bite... much ;)

Stranded (in more ways than one)
Posted 15 years agoHi all. First time in months I've put my fingers to the keyboard and finished a chapter of Stranded, but if feels good not let a good story gather any more dust. Ah, if only my interests weren't so eratic, perhaps I could actually finish a story rather than building up heaps of false starts in my writing file.
In addition to Stranded, I also have in the works, the next segment of Sam's story, a story about a spoiled immobile white martin (with little hope of going anywhere), A short story about an under-appreciated foxtaur secretary who has the misfortune of undergoing overly generous breast expansion (I can't believe I lost interest in that, but there's hope for it yet!), and just recently a hopefully story about a unique white furred seal named Kotick who aspires to be the biggest, fattest seal on the beach (The character is based on the seal who appears in the second story of "The Jungle Book")
All that is not even mentioning the non-erotic stories I don't post here. Needless to say, I am better at starting stories that finishing them =/ Hopefully, I will get close to the end of Stranded before my interest starts to wane again. I really like that later chapters which I haven't shared with you yet, 10-12, things start getting interesting in terms of the size of characters. It's been a long wait, but I intend to publish up to where I am even if I stop writing this time. Thank you for sticking around, my cherished readers.
