The next Dag Hamar cyber mystery begins today. Wayzgoose has posted the first two chapters of For Mayhem or Madness. This is a shorter mystery and will post two chapters every three days until October 18. Enjoy my alter ego's newest!

I really didn't need one more publishing account to keep track of but rule changes this year say that all sale of eBooks advertised on SOL have to be made through Bookapy, so I'll no longer be advertising them for sale through my own website. I get it. If we're advertising on SOL, SOL should get some benefit from it. And who knows? Maybe Bookapy will become so wildly successful that we can all give a well-deserved finger to Amazon.

I have some 50-plus novel-length stories on SOL under the author names of aroslav, Wayzgoose, and J-Hop. It's going to take a while to get all of them up on Bookapy. But I'm approaching it in a sort of logical way. I think. For the past two years, I've been releasing my stories on my own website for my Patreon patrons and for people who simply wouldn't come to a 'sex story' site to read my books. I'm still committed to having all my stories-erotica and mainstream-available here on SOL. I recently discovered I had a dozen books on SOL that I hadn't yet converted for my own site and half of those have never been released as eBooks. So, that's how I'm approaching it.

This week, in honor of starting the serialization of The Props Master 2: A Touch of Magic, I'm releasing all three of the Props Master series on Bookapy. Behind the Ivory Veil, Ritual Reality, and A Touch of Magic. So, download a complete library today! https://bookapy.com/s/198/the-props-master-2-a-touch-of-magic

These join my earlier release of Adams' Apples which was well-received. Next week, I hope to release the Erotic Paranormal Romance Western Adventure series-Redtail, Blackfeather, and Yelloweye. In the future, my intent is to release eBooks at or near the time I begin serialization on SOL.

And yes, there are books coming in the future. I currently have three books in various stages of editing that I hope to have available in the near future. I have one book nearing completion to be sent to editors, and I have two more books that I'm developing the concepts and outlines for. At least one of them will be my November project for NaNoWriMo. Lots more in store.

Enjoy!

It's September and I'm happy to start another serial today with The Props Master 2: A Touch of Magic. I'll be posting a chapter every three days.

This story is the long-awaited sequel to The Props Master 1: Ritual Reality. The story will make more sense if you read the first and the prequel first, but it is filled with magic and illusion that I think you can appreciate regardless. In this volume, Wayne Hamel, known variously as the Props Master, the Vagabond Priest, and the Unbound is fulfilling the commission he was given at the end of Ritual Reality. He and the four priestesses of his inner circle swore to guide and protect Serepte Allen until such time as she could fulfill her own destiny and rescue the man trapped Behind the Ivory Veil in the prequel.

It's five years after Ritual Reality and Serepte is now eighteen. She's moved the circle to Minneapolis where she continues her musical studies at the University of Minnesota. The move has freed her mother, Rebecca Hart Allen-the high priestess of Coven Carles-to return to Greece in search of her lost husband. When a traveling magician comes to Minneapolis to do his illusions at the Showbox, where Wayne works as the lighting technician, the pieces are all in place for a dramatic conclusion.

But a demon man has also arrived on the scene and his quest for the goddess and her power plays havoc with their plans. As the Great Paris tells his audience, it's all an illusion. None of this is real.

I'm happy to return to the story I began forty years ago. Enjoy!

It's been a big week for me. The fifth and final book of "The Transmogrification of Jacob Hopkins," Double Team, began Tuesday on SOL. This morning, the same book came to a conclusion for my patrons who automatically receive advance release of everything I write and immediate access to the eBook (if there is one) as well. I now have 30 Devon Layne books available for free online reading on my website and 10 more Nathan Everett books on that site. And every one of my works are headed to SOL so you don't need to look anywhere else. I just want the broadest possible audience.

I posted the first couple of chapters of The Props Master 2: A Touch of Magic for Advance Release patrons this morning which means it has come out of editing and I'm working on getting it formatted and ready to release here on SOL. I believe it will begin in two weeks and should have the eBooks available simultaneously on bookapy.

The Props Master 2: A Touch of Magic, is my occult fantasy and is the third in The Props Master series. The first, Behind the Ivory Veil, is listed as a prequel to the series. A goddess concealed Behind the Ivory Veil is released at the cost of confining her father in that prison. Props master Wayne Hamel discovered the key to Wesley's release during his initiation as a Vagabond Priest in Ritual Reality. Now Wayne leads a circle of witches devoted to the goddess in the person of Serepte Allen, assuring her protection and the fulfillment of her destiny. All it takes is A Touch of Magic. Sexual content in the entire Props Master series is pretty light, but there is some.

So, now I can spend the rest of the day today working through the last few chapters of the manuscript that arrived this morning from my editor. In the meantime, I've sent off my new Wayzgoose book, For Mayhem or Madness, to the editors. I expect to start posting it mid- to late-September. Lots of new stuff coming.

Enjoy!

Well, Double Twist has ended with Chapter 195 of The Transmogrification of Jacob Hopkins. Now it's on to Book 5: Double Team, starting Tuesday 8/18. Without any conscious intention on my part, the final chapter of the story will post on December 19, so 'Happy Yule!' That, by the way, will be just two weeks short of two years that I've been posting this story with a chapter every three days.

I should mention that I began writing this volume in June of 2019, about two weeks before I started having heart problems. By the time I finished it near the end of August, I was literally writing for fifteen minutes and sleeping an hour, then writing for another fifteen minutes. I know there could have been more to this story and I might still write another volume. But at the time, I just wanted to make sure I finished the story before I died. I did. And I'm not dead yet. I have a lot more stories to tell.

As many have anticipated, this new volume covers the two years of Jacob and Cindy's National Service which proves to be unlike anything they had ever imagined.

It's a whole new world now that Jacob and all his pod except Cindy have graduated from high school. The National Service can't wait to have Marvel and Hopkins on the road as a deputation team, talking about life in the service. They are on the road as soon as school is out, even though they won't be inducted for two more months. But not everyone is happy with their message of reform and some will stop at nothing to make sure it won't be heard.

Starting Tuesday!

Is that all? No, of course not. Watch for J-Hop's short novella to appear on Monday. It's based on a fandom of Thinking Horndog's Swarm Cycle universe. No, it's not a Swarm story. It's a fan story. My Sex Slave will post on Monday. Remember, author name: J-Hop.

When Donna told me she wanted to have a baby, I was all for it. But how to get her ready for the big event? She liked my writing and got turned on when I wrote sexy things. I dug in the back of my memory for a series on SOL called 'The Swarm Cycle' and decided to write about getting a sex slave concubine at a Confederacy pickup. Except we weren't in the Confederacy and there were no aliens about to gobble up Earth. No pickups. What was I supposed to do? This is the first of my stories I've really let anyone but her see. Wish me luck. -J-Hop

Oh, yes. That sets the stage for my first entry into the Swarm Cycle later this fall. My new story, Pussy Pirates, is now in the hands of proofreaders. A lot of them. A couple will make a final scan for canon violations but there will be a lot of eyes looking for spelling and syntax errors. A couple will probably spot check my info on weapons and ships, but I think I got all the comments corrected previously.

Let me tell you, this story owes a lot to the other Swarm authors who are quite a community. Omachuck, Zen Master, John Lewiston, Frostfyre, Kenn Ghannon, starfiend, Anne N. Mouse, Duke of Ramus, akarge, ElSol. There are more than 270 stories on SOL in the Swarm Cycle and I've read them all-most two or three times. I started working on this story back in early 2018 at the urging of a couple of authors. I don't think they knew how I'd screw up their universe!

Most of the Swarm Cycle stories record how the Confederacy picked up people with high CAP test scores and sent them out to colonize other planets and to take the battle to the Sa'arm. But there were those who promised to defend Earth. Different groups formed and were either ineligible for extraction or just refused it. The Einherjar, Earth Defense Force, The Maquis, The Jackass Company, and all the world's militaries. Into this group, I've injected the Pussy Pirates, game developers and porn starlets who have refused extraction to participate directly in Earth's defense. This is their story.

Also in the hands of my editors is The Props Master 2: A Touch of Magic. I'm getting ready for a release of this story very soon. I'm just waiting for the last few chapters to get back to me from Old Rotorhead and Pixel the Cat. It's hard to believe these guys have been keeping me on the straight and narrow for over seven years and have caught more errors between them than I'd have thought existed. As soon as these last few chapters have been proofed, I'll start posting the story.

A tool of the great circle at Carles Castlerigg, the Cauldron Ops, was broken when the Vagabond Priest cast it against the altar stone in Ritual Reality. Now Wayne Hamel, the Props Master, is surrounded by four witches, all devoted to protecting and teaching the high priestess's daughter, Serepte Allen. But dark forces stand in the way of forging Serepte into a new cauldron. They must first find the missing player and release Serepte's father from his long imprisonment Behind the Ivory Veil. All it takes is A Touch of Magic.

So, that's the update from my recliner in the heart of a nudist resort in Idaho. I'm working on still more new stories and rewrites. Love this sunny weather.
