Transference has been released!

I'm very pleased to announce that Transference has been accepted for release on Amazon's KDP and Kindle Unlimited:

Transference - Kindle edition by Waters, Caroline. Literature & Fiction Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

Synopsis

Chloe wakes to find that her consciousness has been downloaded into a rubbery, blue, synthetic body. Together, with her lover Sakura, who has also been turned into a gynoid, they try to discover why they have been dressed in glossy black latex and let loose among a population of identical robotic drones.

They discover, to their horror, that their new bodies have been built to be futanari sex bots in the image of their alien Mistress. Ruled by their desires, it seems increasingly unlikely that they will be able to escape Her machinations, or each other - if they can even remember how to do so.

Up Ahead

I should have more news on my other projects soonish, but I'm waiting for some things to be finalized first... stay tuned!

April Update: Transference, Sky Trained, and more!

Transference

Weighing in at around 42,000 words, my tale about sexy futa robot drones finally has a completed first draft. For a story I was intending to only be around 15K, this one certainly got away from me, as most of my works tend to!

I've just finished writing the author's notes, so the next big chore is the proofreading/editing.

I was able to churn through 'Vanished' in about a week, but I'm not certain I want to push that hard for this one. Certainly, though, I don't wish for it to take another month before I release.

I'm not sure what Amazon's policies are around sexy robots with metallic dicks, so we'll see whether or not my synopsis gets approved for publication.

Anyway, I'll post here when/if I get this novella released, which I expect will be in a few weeks.

Sky Trained

In the meantime, this behemoth of a novel has reached about 120K now. Fortunately, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, and I believe that there's only about 1 1/2 more scenes to write until the end. I expect that won't take more than 5 K, which puts the first draft within reach by the end of the week.

Unfortunately, that means I have an incredible amount of writing to edit, which is liable to take a LOT longer to get through. Imagine having about 170K words to read and edit ahead of you, and then you'll begin to understand my pain.

It must be done to get to release, however, so that's all there is to it. May-ish sounds like a good release time frame for this one at my current rate of progress.

Re-covers of Drone Shuffle/Drone Circus

Mid last month I also worked through new covers for Book 2/Book 3 of Robotic Restitution. Here they are:

Eventually, I'm planning on re-releasing these books with these new covers, at which point I'm planning on making book one completely free (on both Smashwords and Amazon).

At one point, I vaguely thought about putting them together into one big omnibus, but as time goes by that sounds less and less appealing. I think this will be a suitable place to put them permanently. As my first works, they're not good, but they're not bad either. I'm proud of what I've managed to accomplish so far.

The Future

I'm not going to completely stop my writing while I'm editing, so in the meantime I'll also have to come up with something else to work on. I don't have anything planned at the moment, but I figure what I'll do this time (for fun) is to trawl through my collection of stock photos and come up with a story that fits them. It could be fun! (And also a lot more work!)

I also want to get back to the Rubber Order universe this year, but I don't really have a plot put together yet. Plans are subject to change (TM).

I am committed to making this year a year of publishing multiple works, so stay tuned! There will be more to come!

Sky Trained & Transference - Plus Working on Updated Covers!

It's been over a month, so this seems like a good time for an update! I haven't been slacking off, I assure you!

Sky Trained

I'm up to ~90,000 words on this book now, and I suspect it will take another 20K to complete. That's almost TOO long, but I want to tell the story properly. I'm currently not planning on splitting this into two books, but let's see how I feel after I finish editing this beast.

I'm still putting in ~1,000 words a day on this novel, so I'm hoping the first draft might be finished around the end of this month. No promises!

Transference

A couple weeks back I had a great story idea. One which I thought I would start working on after I finished Sky Trained. Well, I'm a little crazy, so I decided that I'd start writing it concurrently with Sky Trained, at a goal of ~1,000 words a day, as well.

So far, it's been two weeks, and I'm keeping up. I really don't know how I'm doing it, but it's happening some how.

Unfortunately, this 'short' story has already bloomed into a 14,000 word behemoth, and I'm expecting it might need another 10K to finish.

That means it's likely I will release 'Transference' before Sky Trained, if I can keep up the current pace. Work on this story only happens if I feel like I can do it each day, so it's not a hard goal (but I'm just lying to myself, I'm totally going to do it).

Anyway, that means a new, weird story about robot drones is coming to Amazon, possibly by the end of the month. I already have a cover made up for it!

Does it look good to you?

Here's a preliminary synopsis. I'm probably going to rework it before release, but it should at least give a taste of what I'm trying to accomplish with this story:

"Chloe wakes up to discover that her consciousness has been implanted in a rubbery blue synthetic body. Together, with her lover Sakura, who has also been turned into a gynoid, they try to figure out why they have been dressed in black latex and let loose among a population of unintelligent drones.

Lost in a sea of androids, will their love survive the mysterious intelligence orchestrating these events? How real can love be when your entire existence has been programmed for you?"

Robotic Restitution Re-Covers

My original trilogy is more or less done in terms of sales, so I'm thinking I may want to do something with it to make it look more polished.

I won't call myself an artist by any means, but now that I've gotten confident with my editing skills, I'm working on putting together new covers for this series. I want my entire library to look as professional as I can accomplish, and my original cover attempts were amateurish at best.

Once I've finished, I may put together an omnibus, but at the very least, I'm planning on making the first book free.

Here's the first cover as a preview of what I'm trying to do!

I think it looks way better, but that's just me!

Sayonara for now, and maybe I'll put together another update next month with an actual announcement of a release!!!
