As things stand, I have my proposed titles listed in my Work in Progress catalogue, although, I agree with the maxim that where sex is concerned, there is always room for a little more.

My primary WIP, My Feminine Side: Part 1 is now in the final stages of editing, and I intend to publish it before the end of January. Although both parts are novella-length, the first one is looking good at quantity with 60,000 words. The second part will be on a par with the first, and it won’t be too far behind.

Due to the way I’ve created this story, I’ve been making notes, and building the framework of My Feminine Side: Part 2 while taking short breaks from the first book.

Big Girls: and other erotic stories is developing well. After a lot of soul-searching I’m finally happy with the six different tales, both in content and length. There should never be a rush to finish, which is something sex and the writing of an anthology have in common. I think it’s looking good for publication in March.

The more observant among you will have noticed that I’ve changed the model on the cover of More Than a Woman, and it was done with good reason. As I tend to make occasional notes on all of my working titles, I imagine the main character, and the one I had originally used felt wrong. The new character with the fuller figure is much more appropriate although the reasons will be within the story.

That’s all for now, you lovely people, so I’ll let you get on with your lives as I create pleasure in the lives of my characters’ lives.

Update – 3rd February.

I’m delaying the publication of My Feminine Side: Part 1 by a week because the ending wasn’t suitable but after a few days break from the new version, I’ll reassess and if all is good, the book will be out by Friday 11th February.

I apologise for keeping my regulars hanging on, but I want to give you my best.

Secrets: Part 1

Curvy Girl or Chubby Guy?

My Naughty Stepmother

Apart from this promotion, I’ve now extended my Work in Progress with another novella, Breaking and Entering. It started out as one of the stories for my next anthology, Big Girls: and other erotic stories, but as I reached a certain point, I knew that this particular tale needed more than to be a short story.

If you haven’t tried my work yet, all of my titles are on Kindle Unlimited to read FREE.

If you’re not enrolled on Kindle Unlimited, take a look at my promotional titles for only 99p (or equivalent) each.

Until January 2022, I wish you all a pleasant and carefree festive break.

Girls with Extra found a few fans out there, and I had several requests to write Martin’s ongoing story.

The first tale has now been retitled Girls with Extra: Part 1

Girls with Extra: Part 2 is now available and all I can hope for is that the ending I’ve created satisfies those who wanted to know more. It was challenging at first, but once it was underway, I enjoyed the journey as I let the characters take the story forward.

What will be next?

Big Girls: and other erotic stories, my second anthology is shaping up nicely. All six stories are underway, but short stories require a lot of development so it will be early next year before the collection appears.

In the meantime, my next two-part story is also developing well. My Feminine Side: Part 1 is looking good for publication in January 2022. As I said in my October update, I knew this one had the makings of a two-part story and as I write the first one, I will continually be making notes in preparation for the second part.

Apart from the anthology, to avoid irritating my readers, after My Feminine Side: Part 1, I’ll produce My Feminine Side: Part 2 before any others in my Work in Progress.

For now, cosy up with Girls with Extra Part 1 and Girls with Extra: Part 2.

My Naughty Stepmother is available to anyone who is interested. It took a few days longer than expected to get her ready, but she’s now out there and ready to be explored and enjoyed. This was a tale which I intended to be a novella, but like some things in life where sexual activity is concerned, it just got bigger and bigger. Obviously, I knew I’d be satisfied eventually.

What else is coming?

As can be seen in my Work in Progress gallery, I have a few more ideas on the go. A couple of them are well-developed, but to regain control, Girls With Extra: Part 2 is my priority project. I wanted to get it out by the end of this year, but as I’ve said before, I don’t like to rush these things. Importantly, I have the cast of characters, a broad outline of how the events will unfold, and I believe the ending will be satisfying.

My Feminine Side: Part 1 is listed as being a two-part story because having created a time-line, primary characters, and outline, I know it’s going to be a big one.

I’ll post another update in November. Before I sign off, my sincere thanks goes out to you lovely people who follow me and buy into my stories. You make all the effort worthwhile.

My next offering is on the horizon and I’m satisfied with how the story has developed. When I started with My Naughty Stepmother I was aiming for at least fifty thousand words but not much more, so it would be classed as a novella, rather than a novel. I’m pleased to report that before beta reading and final edits the story stands at seventy thousand words.

Okay, it’s not as short as a novella, but a key aspect to remember is that the length shouldn’t mean that it is any less satisfying—the goal of the author. I believe it does its job.

Apart from the word count being a target, I did, of course, have a more important factor in mind—satisfaction … of my readers. In particular, I wanted to cater for the imagination of those who enjoy the taboo topics, like sexual relations … with a relation.

As is the case with most of my work, the story involves crossdressing, transgender, and bisexual characters, but I wanted this one to have a slight twist; hence, Natasha, the gorgeous and rather naughty stepmother.

I’ll be revisiting the story after it’s had another rest period and publishing ought to be the first week in October.

What will be next?

As I said I would, I’ve started work on Girls with Extra: Part 2, but just like sex, I don’t like to rush these things. The next story closest to reaching a climax is My Feminine Side which if all goes according to plan, will be a novella published in January 2022.

I don’t have a lot of people behind me (yet), so once again, I’m grateful that you enjoy what I have to offer.

I’m delighted to report that Girls with Extra has captured the hearts and imagination of several of my readers—to the point where they’ve sent messages via my Contact page. Yes, it only has one review, but it’s a five-star write-up and obviously very much appreciated. Anyway, I digress.

The feedback has prompted me to get my juices flowing (the creative ones), and Girls with Extra will now have a sequel.

It’s great to see regular sales, but it’s amazing to receive positive feedback on my work, and even more so when more than one reader suggests a sequel. Thank you all.

With this in mind, I have amended the cover and title of the first story to Girls with Extra: Part 1. I’ve also added a cover and blurb for Girls with Extra: Part 2 to my Work in Progress gallery.

As you’ll appreciate, I work on my new titles individually for days or weeks at a time, but the order of publication is always flexible—a bit like myself. This means, for example, Girls with Extra: Part 2 might be the fifth added to the gallery but it won’t necessarily be fifth to be published.

I’m already imagining what Martin, aka Marianne will get up to, or should that be what will get up her? Mmm.

I’ve amended my website so that there can be more interaction between us. Comments are enabled for all of my visitors on many more of my pages.

Thank you for your support.

In May, I published Curvy Girl or Chubby Guy? and I’m delighted to report that though it is bereft of reviews, like so many erotica titles, it is at least proving popular. I’ve had a couple of private messages via email but I think they’re best kept that way.

Moving swiftly on, I have three Work in Progress, and I’ve made headway with all three of them. I thought that for these, I’d work on all three simultaneously and they seem to be coming along well. I’m allocating two weeks to a story and only if I’m really on a roll, I stick with it. My plan is to keep to two weeks and move to one of the others. I’ve already found it a refreshing way to work on three different tales.

One instant advantage I’ve realised is that it will be a few weeks before I know which one is next for publication. As usual, when they’ve reached the end of first draft, each will have resting periods between the next drafts. This has already proved to be a healthy system and cuts out impatience.

I have to admit that the lack of reviews was disappointing me but I’ve gotten over it when I’ve seen how many erotica authors suffer from the same issue. I’ll continue to produce stories simply because I enjoy it, and if there are folk who like reading them, then that’s great.

Not for the first time I opted to try something bigger and it was working out okay, but in the end I decided I’d prefer two shorter sessions instead of one long one … who wouldn’t?

Secrets: Part 1 and Secrets: Part 2 were a single volume but having spent many months working on the story, leaving it aside for a couple of weeks and then reapplying myself to it, I opted for breaking it into two logical parts.

As with all of my titles, these are available free on Kindle Unlimited.

The story takes place in Edinburgh and ventures into the world of bi-curious, crossdressing, and feminisation, with a little voyeurism and gay (both sexes) thrown in for good measure.

Not being one to rest on my laurels, or even my buttocks, I’ve got another story, Curvy Girl, or Chubby Guy? now looking good for publication by the end of May 2021.

I’ve got a couple of other ideas set aside and when I’m happier with the broad storylines I’ll post them into my Work in Progress/Coming Soon gallery.

Thank you to my followers for keeping faith with me and my stories.

The year is well underway and so are my next titles, but I still have to whip the stories and the characters into shape.

I’m working on all three new titles simultaneously. What that means in reality is that I work on a story for a couple of weeks, put it aside and work on another. It keeps the tales and scenarios fresh when I return to them.

One of the new stories is in two parts because it did start as one book, but there was too much to squeeze in … and I know that shouldn’t be something to complain about. The third new one is a standalone … .

Over the past few days I’ve also been revisiting my covers to give them a fresh look.

Click on a title from the main menu or choose a book cover from the main catalogue and you’ll be taken to a screen with the cover and the blurb (insight) to the story. There are arrows to the left and right to allow you to scroll through my entire catalogue. Enjoy.

I’m pleased that the sales show that there is an interest in my writing, but without reviews from readers, it leaves an author like me unaware of where my strengths or weaknesses lie. I considered stopping but if the titles are being bought, some of you out there like my storytelling.

In the meantime, thank you to my regulars for your support.

Christmas Promotion

Like any author, even as we approach Christmas I feel the need … well, apart from the obvious one, I feel the need to do a promotion, so three books will be offered at 99p/99c for five days.

What can you expect to find in the three books above?

To save me writing it all out here, if you look at the big bundle of categories on the left you’ll see the general spread of the subject matter. Each story is different, of course, but they all have the joys of sex being performed in a variety of situations.

I’m presently wondering whether to continue because the sales show an interest in my writing, but without reviews from readers, it leaves an author like me unaware of where my strengths or weaknesses lie. It might all stop with a ‘dirty dozen’ novels and one book of shorts.

I’ll produce a post in January 2021 to put my thoughts out there and to give an insight into what might be my final story, Fantasy to Reality.

In the meantime, thank you to my regular readers for your support.
