Beginning of March - Dirty Hearts Edition

I'm pleased to announce that I've finished the first draft of my next novel, 'Dirty Hearts.' Over the next month or so, I will be working to edit this novel into an ebook. Given that it's 238 pages long, I expect this process to be rather laborious.

I do have the cover, synopsis, and author's notes written, so it's simply the editing that's in the way!

Once it's complete, I shall release it along with 'Soldiers of Darkness' (though that story will be free!)

I've also decided to set up a free promotion for 'Doll Factory' during this release, as it's been almost a year since I've run a free promotion.

I don't yet have a release date, but I expect that it may be early next month, depending on how the next couple of weeks go. I have a lot going on, so it's hard to commit to a particular time frame, but once I know more, I'll post it!

Future Works

After thinking about my general trajectory recently, I've decided that I'm self censoring rather a lot to get certain stories published on Amazon. Going forward, I'm going to try and do less of that.

What does this mean?

Since I've discovered Gumroad, my plan is to sell the less censored stuff there (things I don't think Amazon will take, especially nonconsensual fantasies).

Eventually, I will likely remove the free version of Repopulated from this site and start selling it there. That's very likely months away, so there's no rush, but if you'd like to grab a copy of it, you can still download it here for now:

Dirty Hearts Synopsis

"Pink lost her mother and crystal heart squadmates during a disastrous assault on Karroch, a brutal negative space entity that shattered her confidence and stole her memories.

Forced into retirement, she spends her days trying to rebuild her broken life, but the Shadow Queen has sent her dark servant to offer her a deal she can’t refuse.

Soon, she is drawn into the Queen’s world, where servants take up Her ivory mask and rubber uniforms. Corrupted into erotic shadows of their former selves, they are willing to do anything for Her lustful cause.

One by one, her allies fall, becoming dark parodies of their former selves. Pink is forced to return to her old haunts to scrape together a team, but the Queen is hot on her tail, demanding that she fulfill their contract. If she falls and becomes a Dark Chained Heart, nothing will prevent the Queen from perverting the rest of the crystal hearts into Her busty servants. 

Indeed, it’s already becoming difficult for her to imagine any other outcome."

Pod Problems

Since 'Dirty Hearts' is complete, I've started working on another story. I know I promised more drones, and that is yet to come, but this idea came to me in a dream, and I know better than to ignore these by now.

This should be a shorter story given how it's plotted out, though of course it will change as I work through it and come up with more ideas. I hope it doesn't end up too short, or it may end up releasing before 'Dirty Hearts!'

Almost Posted Edition: Repopulated/Rubber Bees Retrospective, Training Betsy, and More

Well, here we are after the release of my latest tales. The remaining chapters of 'Repopulated' have been sent to Literotica and MCStories, and should all be posted by next week. If you wanted to pick up a free copy of the EBook version, you can still find it here:

https://shimmed.blogspot.com/2023/11/repopulated-ebook-release-and-other.html

Rubber Bees has been fully released, so I do hope you all enjoyed it! I wrote a good chunk of that story while being extremely ill, so I hope it brings some small (weird) erotic joy to the world.

That being said, it's time for me to look towards my future works.

Training Betsy

This novella about a woman going through various BDSM scenarios after cheating on her husband is almost complete on the writing end. It'll probably be done tomorrow, though I still need to write a synopsis.

I would like to edit and publish this by the end of the month, but that's highly dependent on how my health holds up after my next series of appointments. I won't promise anything, but worst case scenario it should be ready to go in January.

I have some hot little scenarios packed in there, so look forward to it!

Soldiers of Darkness

Up next is going to be what amounts to fanfiction. I've been a huge fan of 'Allows' sentai corruption work for some time, and this one is my absolute favorite:

https://imhentai.xxx/gallery/630720/

Unfortunately, it's not translated, so I have no idea what's going on. That shouldn't be a problem, though, because now I can write a story based on the images without worrying about plagiarizing anything.

Once that story is finished, I have a full length novella/novel planned based on ideas I borrowed from these comics, tentatively titled 'Dirty Hearts.' I've written an 11 page outline so far, but that's still in early days yet, so I don't want to talk too much about it at the moment!

Repopulated EBook Release! (And other details)

Synopsis

Katie’s dull job as a barista abruptly ends when the aliens decide to invade, shutting down the city. Terror hits the streets as slug-like aliens begin to control the local populace, leaving her to fend for herself along with her lover, Jackie, as they do their best to dodge the alien’s insidious control.

Their escape is short lived, however, and they soon find themselves captured and dominated, wearing new alien organs that serve to enhance their sexual functions. Overwhelmed with pleasure, they explore each other’s bodies, learning more about themselves and their master’s future plans for the human race.

Resisting their influence was never an option. The only way to make a new future for each other is to accept the changes and thread a subversive path in order to find a way to overthrow their new alien overlords - or submit to the rapture and accept that their struggle will soon be over.

More Notes

I've gotten some votes and comments on chapter two on Literotica, so people seem to be enjoying the transformation parts of the story. There's more fun where that comes from!

If you prefer reading it on MCStories or Literotica, I'll continue posting it there throughout next month and into next year until it's all there (except for the author's note - that will remain exclusive to the EBook edition).

And here's the cover for 'Repopulated':

Rubber Bees

If strange rubber honey bee transformations is more your style, I've decided to start releasing this story at the end of next week-ish, and I'm planning on publishing the whole thing by the end of December. Stay tuned!

Training Betsy: BDSM Chronicles

I'm struggling with how to structure the end of this story, and from what I can determine, it's going to become two parts. The jury is still out on how long each story will be, and since there's still a lot of work to do to get to the end of the first part, I can't promise a release next month.

I do know the first part won't be novel length, but it could very well hit novella length, which will, of course, pose a problem in terms of getting editing done. It'll be tight if I expect to finish before Christmas - we'll just have to see how it goes, but I would very much like to have it published before then!

Repopulated - Post-Editing Edition

I've finished editing 'Repopulated'! The observant may have noticed the first chapter of 'Repopulated' showing up on MCStories and Literotica, but not here.

That was intentional, and not totally because I forgot to do so. Absolutely not!

I do have a far better prize for the loyal readers of this blog, however - I am planning on releasing the entire ebook for download here, as soon as I have finished the formatting. So, stay tuned for that, I expect to be done with it soonish - probably right after I get back from Thanksgiving break!

Rubber Bees

I have finished editing this story, but I haven't decided when I'm going to post it yet. I probably won't wait until after Repopulated is finished being posted, since that would take longer than I'd like.

Training Betsy: BDSM Chronicles

The writing on this story is going well so far. Given the story structure, it might end up as three shorter stories, or one big novel. I haven't decided yet. Look forward to fun bondage scenarios and some master/slave goodness!

Around the Bend Edition

Repopulated

I've been working diligently on editing 'Repopulated,' and I've hit a pretty good milestone with this story - I'm on to editing the Epilogue, which is about 43 pages long.

The bad news is, that's almost 1/4 of the book, since it's a total of 193 pages long! Gulp!

Given the current rate of progress, I anticipate that I'll be finished with this by the end of next week, and then I'll have to make the final decision - will it be a book that can be published, or will I release it for free? I said last time I'm thinking of making it free, but I'm still wobbling on that point. I'll know for certain by next week, at which point I'll post more information.

I'm fairly pleased with how the story has come out, and there are several sexy sections to look forward to - if you like alien lesbian dick girls, of course!

Rubber Bees

This story is about 26K words, coming in at 60 pages, which is longer than I ever thought it would be! It's a deliciously twisted tale about superheroes being converted into bees coated with rubbery honey, straight from the depths of my imagination.

I will start editing this for a free release as soon as I finish working my way through Repopulated, but it's currently on the backlog. Too much to edit!

Training Betsy: BDSM Chronicles

I've recently started working on a new tale. This one is somewhat more... down to earth than a lot of my other works, and consists of a husband training an unfaithful wife to be his BDSM slave.

I'm up to 10K so far, and there will be a lot of sexy interludes, bondage, rubber, and awkward situations for poor Betsy to work her way through!

I don't quite know how long this one will be, as of yet, since I don't have a full outline (that's probably going to come back to bite me later!)

At any rate, this one will be suitable to release on Amazon for sure, so I might be targeting a late December release. I'll put out more details when I have them!

Pain Edition

 Post-Covid has not been kind to me. In the last week, I've experienced more pain than I've ever encountered in my entire life. Quite frankly, it has been absolutely miserable.

As a result, a lot of my usual habits were disrupted and I wasn't able to do much of anything for a while. Fortunately, I am no longer feeling quite as dreadful, which means I can start to look towards the future again.

Here's where things stand on my current stories:

Repopulated

I've come to the conclusion that this is not an Amazon friendly story. As such, I'm planning on editing and releasing this novel a chapter at a time on here, Literotica, and MCStories. When it's complete, I'll release the full e-book for free. I'm not sure what avenue I'll use for that yet, but we'll see.

I don't have any schedule set for doing this, but I hope that I'll be able to pick this up again within the next couple of months. Since it's not a book I can sell, it's unfortunately going to be on a bit of a backburner, but if I can edit logical chunks at a time, I should be able to keep the content flowing.

I hope it finds an audience, but if not, I did have fun writing it anyway!

Rubber Bees

While being an invalid, I randomly decided to start writing a bizarre idea bouncing around my head because it's fun - no other reason.

This story consists of a bunch of heroines being converted into rubbery honey bees of various kinds. There's nothing deep about it, just bizarre transformations and sexy shenanigans.

It's not meant to be a long story, yet I get the feeling that it has some legs to it yet. As such, I can't promise a release date on this story, either, but since I'm planning on releasing it for free as well, you should look forward to something within the next month or two.

Future

Given how messed up my body is, I won't make any promises in the short term. I'll keep writing, and I'll keep releasing, and we'll just have to see how things go from here!

I'll likely gravitate back towards paid works in the future as I find more stories that fit in that arena, but for now, I'm just going to write some dark, weird stuff, because I can. Cheers!

Post Vacation Update

During the break, I was both able to accomplish more, and less than I had anticipated.

I was able to keep up my writing while I was out, and finished the 'Repopulated' novel. However, I wasn't really able to get any editing done, and a large part of this I blame on Covid, which hit me like a ton of bricks as soon as I arrived at my destination.

On some days, even writing seemed like too much of a bother, which was really rather annoying to me. Blegh.

I'm still dealing with a lot of the aftereffects of that nastiness, so it's hard to promise anything in particular (the symptom list from that virus is truly horrifying). It didn't help that it triggered a couple of migraines, either, making it more difficult to get back on my feet.

Well, putting all that aside, I have been fairly productive recently.

Within the last few days, I've written an erotic horror story titled 'Shadow Play,' which I'm planning on releasing online before Halloween. That should be prepped and ready to go for MCStories and Literotica this weekend.

Since I just finished writing that, I need to figure out what I'm going to start working on tomorrow. I was originally spitballing some tie-ins to 'Repopulated,' but I'm having some serious misgivings on how I want to handle that novel in general.

That book has somewhat sensitive material in it, since it's more or less all about dickgirls, which in general has more of a niche audience than the other stuff I've released. That being the case, I'm debating whether it's a good fit for Amazon at all.

Once I've finished an editing pass, I might just consider releasing it entirely for free (not sure when editing will be done on that one!)

If I decide to do that, there isn't really much of an incentive to write any spin-offs in the same universe, as the whole point of doing that would be to drum up interest in the main universe.

Well, that hasn't been decided yet. Nothing's been decided yet! It's all a mystery to me!

The next few weeks are liable to be a rather wacky ride from beginning to end, but in general I think the end result is that I'll be posting more short stories for free. Stay tuned for more news here!

Before Vacation Update

I was seriously hoping that I would be finished with Repopulated by now, but it's sitting at 65K and by all accounts it will soon be novel length. I am working on the epilogue, and have a good idea on how to end it. Unfortunately, that 'good' idea is going to stretch the length somewhat (but since it'll make the ending more satisfying, it feels worth it to me!)

I'm of two minds about this, because although I personally enjoy futa girls, I suspect the audience for this kind of smut won't be as large as for the other works I've posted the last four months. I'm definitely not going to get out of this story what I put into it!

Oh well. At least I will have done the plot justice, and that's all that matters (I'll continue to convince myself that this is indeed the case).

That being said, if I'm lucky, I'm hoping that I'll be able to get the novel complete before I go on vacation next week. If not, I'm not certain whether I'll be able to get it edited before I get back. I will have to be mindful of my locations as I doubt the other passengers on the plane would be down with me reading lewd smut while travelling. Ah, well.

At any rate, the next story I have planned I've tentatively titled 'Symbiote Sublimation,' which will be a side story that takes place during this novel. The goal is to release that one for free online at the same time I get the novel published on Amazon.

With everything happening between now and then, I don't think my next release will occur until the end of the month at the soonest. It's far likelier that I'll be pushing out these new stories at the beginning of November.

See you all then!

Mid September Update

This seems like a good time for an update, since it's mid month and I'm coming in off the heels of the release of my short at the beginning of the month.

I'm making good progress on my next story, 'Repopulated.' According to the outline, I'm about 70% of the way through, but I'm not sure whether I believe it.

Unlike my last story, it's jam packed full of explicit dickgirl sex, so if that's your sort of thing, I'm going all in on it this time.

I also have a scene I decided to drop that might make for an interesting one off short after the story is complete to drum up interest in the main story line. I'm vaguely considering writing that and posting it for free around when the story is out on Amazon.

I kind of like that idea, but we'll see how I feel about it once I get to the end of the story!

If I can finish in ~10K words I'll release this as a short, but otherwise it'll probably be a novella. It's hard to say exactly which way it's going to swing at the moment - I never really know until I get closer.

If I can keep up this rate of progress I might hit something unprecedented for me - a release every month since June, which would be insane. Insanely awesome, that is!

Here's the first draft of the Synopsis to whet your appetite! Look forward to it!

Repopulated Synopsis

"Katie’s dull job as a barista abruptly ends when the aliens decide to invade, shutting down the city. Terror hits the streets as slug-like aliens begin to control the local populace, leaving her to fend for herself along with her lover, Jackie, as they do their best to dodge the alien’s insidious control.

Their escape is short lived, however, and they soon find themselves captured and dominated, wearing new alien organs that serve to enhance their sexual functions. Overwhelmed with pleasure, they explore each other’s bodies, learning more about themselves and their master’s future plans for the human race.

Resisting their influence was never an option. The only way to make a new future for each other is to accept the changes and thread a subversive path in order to find a way to overthrow their new alien overlords - or submit to the rapture and accept that their struggle will soon be over."

First draft of 'Bugged Out' has been completed!

My next story, 'Bugged Out,' is ready for editing, coming in at around 37K words. I'm going to sell this one as a 'short', which is somewhat laughable given how long it is. I'm also considering lowering the price for 'Bull Moon' by a dollar as well, to get it in line with 'Droneship,' which has done rather better than I had expected.

Stay tuned for an announcement on that when I get this story released, which will likely be either the week of the 3rd or the 10th. At the moment, I think it's more likely to happen earlier, but plans can always change depending on how the editing goes.

This story is derived from the list of story outlines I put together December of last year. There are three additional story outlines from that time that I haven't gotten to yet, and I think I've decided that the next one will be 'Repopulated,' a small, fun tale about an alien invasion with slug like parasites.

In some ways, that might be considered similar to this story, but 'Bugged Out' has something unusual about it, which readers may not like - it's a pure parasite/MC story, but there are no smutty elements involved with it.

I'm not sure when I realized that was where it was headed, but once I was halfway done, I decided it didn't really need any of those elements. Does that make it a weaker story? Possibly, but I'll let the readers be the judge of that.

Effectively, it's all about the body horror and the mind control, so I leaned into that as hard as I could. I think, overall, it has some interesting twists, so I do hope that my regular fans will enjoy it!

As far as that goes, I consider this to be an experiment, one which may or may not be repeated depending upon how successful it is and where my muse takes me. I'm excited to get it done and released!

Synopsis

"Going on a hike with her friend shouldn’t have been this frightening. She might not like her friend’s choice in husbands, and his dog was more than a little annoying, but spending time in the fresh air usually was a rejuvenating experience.

Sure, there was always the chance of an encounter with wild animals, but she hadn’t expected them to be confronted by a stranger that looked like he had a gigantic beetle lodged in his throat.

And she certainly hadn’t expected to pick up a similar parasite which had embedded itself into her brain, telling her where to go and what to do.

As her body is converted by the parasite, she struggles to understand the sarcophagus sent to her in a vision. Its brightly colored death mask and the paintings on the walls must mean something, but only her friend holds the key.

Perhaps some of the beetles nesting in her body can convince her to tell the truth…"
