2022 Update

Well, that sure was a year wasn’t it. 2021 saw a successful clawback to the realm of writing, but I’m still no where near where I wanted to be by now, and a good amount of the writing I did do was almost certainly not what most readers were hoping for. Overall, this has been a year of experimentation and finally finishing off a few long-languished projects. In that regard, I’d consider this year to be fairly productive. Even if some of it was cringe-worthy, or makes me absolutely livid that it took me so long to get to, I’m glad I worked on what I did and was able to finally knock some stuff off the backlog.
 
As to the future, though, I have no idea what to do next at the time of this post. I have no real plans and no strong inspirations. I have vague notions of projects I’m still flirting with doing, such as another RPG or Visual Novel or full-scale 3D comic, and continuing to make ebooks, but I don’t have any solid ideas committed just yet.
 
What I can say is that, while I am still interested in making more erotic content, for the foreseeable future, my output will continue to be very sporadic and infrequent. There’s a variety of factors, but the long and short of it is my head just isn’t in it like it used to be. I’d like nothing more than to be a content machine cranking stories on the weekly, but I’ve had to face the harsh reminder that it’s something I’m just not capable of. I won’t declare anything definitively, as I can never predict my creative whims, of course. All I can say is I do intend to make more stuff this year, but don’t hold your breath. I’ll get to things when I’m capable of getting to things.
 
In the bigger picture, the 2020’s have been a ripe sack of ass for a lot of people so far, and things don’t look to be on the upswing any time soon. I hope all of you are doing well, and that the future sees you safe. Good luck out there, whatever your life’s endeavors.
 
Cheers.

    1. Not right now. I might do another call for it later in the year if I can't get any other projects off the ground.

  2. Do you do commission stories?

  3. Became a recent fan of your work and have read through a lot of your stories over the last few days. I was wondering if there is an FAQ out there about the sex mage and chastity curse worlds? I've got so many questions about these stories.

    1. Thank you! Glad you've been enjoying them! :)

      If you go to the Tables of Content in the overhead menu, all of my work is sub-divided by major settings and sub-projects. Each of these will have their own worldbuilding articles about the setting, lore, and how the worlds work, with the Sex Mage World fleshed out the most. Hopefully that will answer most if not all of your questions.

    2. There is also a broad FAQ about my work under "Addressing Common Concerns."

    3. So ran through the table of contents and a few more stories and still have some questions.

      It seems as though sex magic can keep a person conscious regardless of pain or exhaustion as indicated in Blake's roommate. The unconscious part only being allowed if the girl allows it. At another point we see a girl about to step in, but ultimately doesn't.

      Hypothetically, if Blake's roommate would have kept up her treatment, or made it worse, would the school have ever stepped in? Is there a line that can't be crossed at the academy?

      Also how does sleep deprivation work with men? Does sex magic stop the harmful blowback of lack of sleep, water, food for guys in extreme cases? For instances where the female doesn't allow these types of things?

    4. CONSCIOUSNESS
      I've never expressed a solid hard limit, but yes, eventually, there is a threshold at which the Magic can't compensate. This is more due to intensity over duration, though, there is some lee way on it. As seen in Punishment Party, the women in there completely blast the boys brains into comas with high-intensity Roast-fucking, but then afterwards use a lighter trickle of Magic that boosts healing without being overwhelming, and are able to recover them that way.

      METIS
      At some point, yes, someone would have stepped in to help Blake if Stephanie had gotten worse. I can't give you an exact line, that's someone I would have figured out if I'd written the story in that direction. As it is, she was already bad enough for the Headmistress to attempt to interfere.


      SLEEP
      Yes, the Magic's healing power halts damaging effects of lack of food, water, sleep, excretion, etc. This isn't something most women actually have much, if any, control over, but a Sex Mage who does train in directly manipulating the healing effects (usually an Archmage or Medical Specialist), could actually deprive the man of healing effects if she really wanted to, and that would absolutely wreck their bodies and minds.

      From a writing standpoint, to serve the purpose of the story, I go a little back and forth on how bad the lack of sleep gets. Ostensibly, the Magic should make it so an all night teasing binge still refreshes the body and mind as if the man had a full nights sleep, and largely mitigates the trauma of the experience. But, frankly, going from having your brain soaking in redlined levels of arousal and your body wracked with sensations still leaves a "frazzled" state when he's roused out of it. How quickly he can shake this off is a matter of how bad it was, how much the remnant Lust Energies have lingering healing effects, and, well, how bad I need it to be for the sake of the story impact.
