Hodgepodge of Stories

Writing Journal: Looks like The Adjusters #59 will be delayed until next weekend—still some work to do on it. Thanks for your patience.

I've been pondering why the stories in Book V have been so much more difficult to write than the previous ones, and I think it's because the way I set things up, every story in Book V is essentially its own unit, and there's a fair amount of context-switching overhead every time I start a new one. For previous books, aside from book transitions, everything in an installment essentially flowed from the previous one, and I could ride the wave. Here, not so much.

Thankfully, Book V is almost done. Only one more installment after #59. And you can all guess whom it's about, since there's only one character we haven't really seen in V yet...



To keep you entertained during the wait, here are stories that I've caught my attention this past month.

Jaycuck has started a new story, Ripples in a Cuckolds Pond: “Nick, Nicole, and David - A Beginning.” A follow-up to his The One Less Traveled By which I thoroughly enjoyed. This is looks promising, since David looks to be much more dominant and forceful than Colin ever was.

I should also note that Jaycuck has a book out on Smashwords, Shattered Crystal, that seems to hit some interesting themes. I've only read the 20% free sample, and I'm on the fence. I'll probably eventually buy it: “Tim and Crystal were blissfully happy together, until Shane moved into their trailer park. The outlaw biker was mysterious, a little dangerous, and ruggedly handsome. Crystal was instantly fascinated by his sexy body and no-holds-barred lifestyle. Shane was happy to fulfill their sexual fantasies…and then introduce Crystal to the steamy world of stripping, Meth addiction, and drug trafficking!”

Into the Deep by One2many: “Prim and proper wife begins lusty journey into slutdom.” As the description says. Some nice idea in this first chapter. Promising.

Marin's Tale by Jawanaut: “A little bit of background.” The Literotica description says nothing. But it's the usual setup: husband want his wife to fool around with others, and she agrees. As of now, pretty well done, if fast. Promising.

User Friendly by Interstitial: “Sara signs up for a three month test of a new high-tech entertainment product prototype. The money is good – but what exactly is the product?” A straight up mind-control story that gets in fast and remains hot throughout. Very well done.

Dreamscape by Darbreslo: “A young scientist is enlisted to create a mind altering drug.” A bit of a slow start, but a very promising setup.

Comments Are Enabled by Villanova: “A girl makes a video, and it has unwelcome consequences.” Twisted, and I'm not sure where the author can go with this, but I love the idea.
