Dark Paladin: Blog

I know. Don't faint. I've been working on the next chapter and figured "You know, maybe I should post this thing."

And maybe I will. I'm debating if it's long enough, or if I should care about length or not. Things are coming to a major turning point in the story, and it's about time I just got to it, let the chips fall where they may, and then see how many people complain.

The irony is I really don't write for anyone but myself. Sure, I like to see the numbers go up on a score, but in the end, I'm the only one I write it for anyway. If you enjoy it - well, that's cool too.

I should have spent the day doing some offline work, and I probably will later. But after finishing up Chapter 15 of "The Feel II", I've been struck with the need for another piece of work.

I banged out the first chapter, and I'll try to fit in more writing of each over the week. No promises as always, since every time I promise to write more Life laughs at me.

I'll put up the first chapter to "Little Sister Don't You Do" in a bit. I've done some editing, but honestly just want to ride the high of this story a bit. It's different - maybe more serious or less serious than other works. It'll be controversial perhaps. We'll see.

Honestly, I tend to write for me. If you enjoy it, then I'm glad, but this story is just getting something out of my head and heart, for good or ill.

EDIT: I meant "The Invention II" of course. Sorry to get people's hopes up!

Life is weird. A year ago I was doing really badly. This year - still bad, but better. Been good enough that I spent more than I should, but still paying the bills. And busy enough I couldn't get to writing.

Decided I should change that up. Long time coming, but a new chapter. Soaked in action. Hope you enjoy and if you don't - well, there's plenty of other books out there.

No major changes to the story as of this time. But first - I want to give a big thank you to B4Lurker and Zen Master who were kind enough to read "Invention II: Touch of Lust". This was a bigger undertaking than I realized when I started going through it and realize it's swelled to over 200 pages.

What the hell is wrong with me.

Anyway, thanks to these two brave souls. Because of this, over the next bit I'll be updating those chapters that should fix the spelling mistakes, name mistakes, grammar issues, and add in pictures of every girl in the series in sexy schoolgirl outfits.

The last part is a lie.

Anyway, the chapters should be resubmitted and available to you soon. I hope you enjoy them. I do have the next few chapters written and being reviewed by editors. I keep alternating between wanting to wait until the entire story is done, or just post a chapter at a time? Hm. Hard choice. Guess we'll see what the readers think.

First - I've submitted an updated version of "The Promotion", a story I wrote a few years ago and was pretty proud of. I don't think it was as well received as my "guy knocks up a ton of girls" stories but I liked it.

Second, I've made no bones about the fact that I'm working towards setting up a Patreon account - but only when everything is in place, so when it's rolled out those who contribute will feel their dollars are worth it.

So when I see they've updated their community guidelines to show "sexual depictions of minors" - and for those of you who have read "The Feel" or "The Invention" stories know that yeah - those stories have minors.

The options are - either I change to go along with it, or give up before I even start.

It's a fine line. Granted, some stories I was able to skate around things. In "No More Whores Redux" I never mentioned age - just "young." I'd have to tweak it even further to remove any term like "underage" or such to make it appropriate.

With something like "Invention II", I'll have to go through and edit the ages up a few years so Ryan is 18. Some things will be lost - the whole "coming of age" stuff, but what else do you do?

Either way - I'd like to do this, because if I can write and create things that people enjoy and be able to do so in a way that let's me do it more often - then everybody wins.

Hope I'm not posting too much as I work my way towards this goal. Either way, I want to thank everyone for their support and kind comments who have encouraged me to come back to writing.
