A lot of you have asked when The Asian Blues - Version Bravo is coming out. It's still in editing and will probably be out during March, but I've been doing a few shorter stories while I worked on longer books. So I'm going to post one of those now. It's only three chapters long so it will be fully up by Wednesday

It's called I Married a Porn Star and it's pretty much exactly what it sounds like.

Except there are always details the average person usually doesn't get to know and that's what this story is actually about. Questions get answered.

Why does a woman decide to start doing porn?

What about her husband, if she's married?

Does she have any control at all over what she has to do?

Why would a man even want to marry a porn star?

Or, you can just look at it as a stroke story that I didn't code that way. It's up to you.

I'll just be glad if you read it.

I've mentioned this before but it bears repeating. My "process" involves working on two or three or even four projects at the same time. Whichever one piques the interest of my muse is what gets worked on. What that results in, though, is that two or three or four projects all end up getting finished about the same time. That stacks things up in proofreading, with Michelle and then editing, with Andy.

Now some of those things are beginning to flow out of the pipeline. The first is The Asian Blues - Version Alpha, which is 23 chapters and an epilogue long. I started posting that today and will continue at roughly one or two chapters a day until it's all up. Version Bravo is finished, but still in the pipeline. It's also shorter. I'll do another blog entry when it comes out so you know what the difference is. It's quite possible that something else will get posted before Bravo. That's just how the pipeline works.

Meanwhile, there are at least three more stories, mostly short ones, waiting to get into the pipeline so, in theory, I'll be posting fairly regularly in 2023.

I'm beginning the process again, pulling up new projects to work on. By the time you read this, that's what I'll be doing.

Thanks for your patience and, of course, for reading.

I'm starting to get inquires again asking if I'm still alive. This has happened before and the situation is like I have described before, but I'll provide an update to answer all the questions.

First off, I'm fine and I'm writing. What has happened recently was that I was working on multiple books at the same time and finished them all around the same time as well. That means Michelle, my proofreader, has a stack of things to look at. She's got a family and a job and a life to live, so it takes time for her to get around to looking at my stuff.

Then, once she's done her thing, I send it to Andy for editing. He also has other things to do than pore over my stuff. Both of these folks contribute a really astonishing amount of quality to the finished product. That gets noticed and it's one of the things that makes people keep reading my books.

So, there are three or four new books in the pipeline that will come out sometime in 2023, One is an Alpha and Bravo set about a young man who gets hit by a car at age 15 and is in a coma until he's 18. When he wakes up he has epilepsy as a result of the accident and needs a live-in caregiver. Enter a young Asian woman with a brand new degree in physical therapy and... well, you know me. Version Alpha is just her and the boy. In version Bravo his mother helps take care of him.

Those two can't come out together, though, unless I hold Alpha until Bravo is finished. Alpha is almost ready now and there's another book in the lineup before Bravo.

So that's the deal. Things will get done when they get done. I value Michelle and Andy's contribution to much to abuse them.

Thanks for all the interest.

If you have been reading my stuff, over the years, then you know I write within a relatively defined genre. You might also know that I reach out, now and again, to try something different. I have done that again and this time I reached waaay out.

I'm posting my first BDSM story. Or maybe it's only domination/submission, since (in my opinion) there are no sadists involved. There might be a masochist in the story.

Basically, I have no freaking idea what this is, but I wanted to write it and I did and I never waste anything that came from my muse.

So here's the deal. This is an experiment. It might be good and it might be garbage. Only those who are legitimately in the BDSM community can make that judgement and since I'm not in that community, I'm just going to post it and let them tell me how I did. It's kind of like when I write from a woman's point of view. I'm not a woman but my female readers (who I try hard to understand) tell me I have done all right at that. I want to understand almost everybody in the world of erotica so that's also what this one is about.

The title is Spanking my Secretary and it's eleven chapters long. It does not (necessarily) have cliffhangers in it, which is also something new for me. I plan on posting a chapter a day.

I get mail fairly often from people who say something along the lines of "I'm not into [what this book is about] but I decided to try it because you wrote it and I'm glad I did." This is not an attempt to toot my own horn (or have them toot it) but rather is just a request that you read a few chapters before you decide it's not for you, especially if BDSM really isn't your thing. It's really not my thing, either, which might sound odd, since I wrote about it, but we should all try to understand each other if at all possible.

Stay safe and thanks for reading.

I don't know what other authors do when they publish a book at Bookapy, but when I do that I always republish about two or three weeks later, so that corrections, additions and edits are there. So, if you purchase one of my books (and THANK YOU VERY MUCH IF YOU DO) then be sure to go back and re-download it a month later. I want you to have the best product possible.
Thanks for reading.
