I've completed uploading the edited versions of Chapters 1 through 4 of my story "A Submissive Sibling".
I ended up adding several thousand words to each of them, which does not significantly change the story, but adds more detail and removed a lot of the "tell" and replaced it with "show." There's probably no need to go back and read them again unless you are a big fan of the story. If I had to pick one to tell you to read again, it would be Chapter 4, which features a lot more of the parents.
Thanks to everyone who has read it, and especially to those who have left me feedback.

I consider myself a new author, having only started to push stuff out over the last few months. I've gotten a lot of good responses about my story "A Submissive Sibling" and I'm very appreciative of that.
I recently pushed Chapter Six up, which ended up being a monster of a chapter. I paid careful attention to the editing on it and I think it ended up being a good chapter. I have the outline done to finish the next two chapters, which will finish the story.
However, since my goal is to eventually offer this for sale as a book on zBookStore, I want to make sure the entire story is as clean and edited as possible. I went back and looked at Chapter One closely, and noticed several instances of "telling" and not "showing". So I gave the chapter a very careful edit and rewrite and it ended up going from 2300 words to over 4,000 words. I also finally came up with a decent illustration for it.
If you've already read Chapter One, don't feel the need to go back. It does add some new material, but doesn't change the basic story. I do think it will read better and make more sense as I also go back and do the same to chapters two through five.

Was working on my latest chapter this morning and I took an hour long break to fall down the rabbit hole researching prostate massagers. I had no idea there was such a large selection for such a specialized... uh... tool? Don't worry, fearless reader, I'm doing all this work for you so you'll be better informed after reading my next chapter.

I'm still trying out a few illustrations in some of my new stuff I'm posting here on SOL. My latest chapter of The Submissive Sibling had one illustration which I think turned out well. I added it because I personally found it erotic and thought it added to the story.
Yes, the base image is AI generated, but then I altered it to fit my own desires. I also find the process of creating an illustration like this seems to get my creative juices flowing, so it helps me write better. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the latest chapter and the illustration, but would love to hear from you either way.

Very happy to announce that the Illustrated Version of my book Catching Alice is now available on ZBookStore! With almost 16,000 downloads and 209 votes since it was published in late February, it's by far my most popular book here on SOL.
I made the decision based on some reader feedback to move the illustrated version to the book store and leave the plain text version up here on SOL. Thank you for your support and special thanks to everyone who has left me feedback, for good or ill.
