In my latest story Kenneth & Danique, I include links in an Afterward to images that inspired this story. However, I could not find an image of the white soft yarn string bikini that plays a role in the story. Then I found one. Rather than try to post an updated version of the story just for this minor correction, I decided to put it here in my Blog.
Now this is not an image of the character herself. She appears on the bookcover as an AI generated image, dressed as she appears at another point in the story. This is just the bikini itself that closely resembles the one that I’ve described.
To follow StorieOnline policy, this is not a live link. You will have to edit it to remove the () parenthesis, while leaving the enclosed dot.

Wow, I haven't posted anything new here in over 13 years. I started pulling stories down after that and, along with newer ones, selling them through eXcessica Publishing. That was a fun ride as they took care of the messy business of getting them up on a selection of leading story sites, leaving me more writing time.
Alas, nothing lasts forever, and very large changes in the publishing industry over a few short years forced eXcessica, and their sister publishing label Fido, to eventually pull back to finally only marketing their founder's large library of erotic stories. I wish her well!
In the meantime, I have changed as well. I've finally said everything that I wanted to say about Fembots, and have moved on to Dolls. Post-modern Galateas. In fact, the SOL tag DOLLS was created at my request for my stories. The same way that the ROBOTS tag was once added for me, although others have used it well since.
Only now am I putting the final touches on my first completed story in that genre and will be posting it soon, wishing for a friendly reception.
So I'm hoping that I'm remembered here, at least a bit, and wish you all a very fine day.
In your blog you mentioned where your stories not
on SOL could be found. Could you email me?
Not until you send me your e-mail address.
Hello Readers,
I've gotten e-mail from people already who have noticed that my two Silver Goddess stories aren't available here on SOL at the moment. The reason for that is, like other stories of mine that aren't on SOL any longer, they have been taken down to be rewritten (something every good author needs to do with their stories along the way long after the first draft was written), reproofed (I still get dinged on my Technical scores over that despite working with multiple proofreaders), and prepared for publication later this year.
This doesn't mean that I'll never put anything new back up on SOL again. Hera and the Relic Hunter was a new story put up last year and I have some more Relationships essays to write as time permits. I really like SOL, it is the only site that I've ever put a lot of my writing onto, and it's really hard for me each time I do request that a story of mine be taken down from it. It only means that where I have the possibility of publishing my writing now that I am exploring that possibility.
For those of you who have wondered over the years if I got a cut of the money for my stories that were Premier Membership area only, that answer is no. That money has always gone to the support of the site and keeping SOL free and ad-free.
As for The Silver Goddess, the 2 stories being taken down will become the first printed and eBook of what I envision as a 3 book series. I feel that it will take me at least that long to answer all of the questions that have already asked in these first two stories. I will soon start work on the new stories once I finish the existing rewrites still in my queue. Publishing is a whole lot more work than it seems like it ought to be.
If anybody is having problems locating my already published stories, send me an e-mail and I can tell you where they can be found. I can also be found on Facebook under my e-mail address: dbstory (at) storiesonline.org where I am trying to keep people up to date on my writing overall.
Thank you for your support over the years.
Respectfully,
--D.B. Story
