Welcome to my blog (I know, a very typical first phrase), I have decided to utilize this platform for several reasons, and I intend to have more than a few of my updates and experiments in the future stem from this site. Myself, I'm an over-the-road truck driver with a large company, and being a company guy, time is not on my side. This fact, though irritating, and a cause for great amounts of delay in my writing, does not deter me from getting out there, if anything, the work helps to keep me on task, even if it does draw it out. My main goal in writing is create something fun to read, if it's not fun to read, then I haven't done my part as a writer.
I want to note, that I will be using Twitter and Facebook to post updates on when I update this blog. You're probably wondering why I'm pointing this out, and the short answer is that I am still very unused to relying on social media, but I'm working on catching up. As this blog is also attached to G+, it should show up, and I'll be checking to see if it does so. The other thing about this blog is that I will also use it, not just to talk about projects that I'm working on, but also to post the odd short story. Also, if I see anything interesting on the road, or when I'm at home, I'll be sure to share pictures and a story about what I came across, you know, in typical blog fashion. Being that I'm a stickler for labels, each of my blogs will be titled by category and then the title of the story or the event (ex. Story: <story title>; Update: <event>).
Now, all of that out in the open, I'm not going to shamelessly advertise over much, but I do want to let you know that I do have two stories currently published on Jasmine Thorne's website, which is a very classy collection of erotic art and fiction, as well as amazing gift ideas from Miss Thorne herself. I can't tell you how exciting it is to have my work among her collection, as Jasmine Thorne has extremely good taste and a high standard for the writing posted, and I highly recommend her site to anyone whom enjoys good, quality erotica. The two pieces that are up currently, both part of a sci-fi series that I am exclusively writing for Jasmine-Thorne.com, are about a young alien woman, a flag officer in the Chu'Tai Empire's military, and close advisor (and consort) to the Emperor. In "Cost of Ambition", Xatha is first introduced, as are her lofty ambitions, but can she afford the cost of her aspiration? In the second chapter to the series, Xatha has made progress, and has now become the most powerful woman in the Empire next to the Emperor, "Limitless Hunger" takes a step further into the intense and precarious balancing act that Xatha puts on as she continues warming the Emperor's bed whilst eying his throne.
This is only one facet, of course, to my writing, as hopefully you will see in the near future. As I continue to write more (not all sci-fi, I promise), I'll also be looking forward to perhaps the most critical element anyone creating a product can have...feedback. Why call it a product? Because as much as I love to write, when I write with intent to publish, my first and foremost thought is the enjoyment of the reader. I would love to hear from you, especially if there is something you do not like, or feel strongly about (positive or negative) in my writing. A firm believer in never being satisfied and always having room to improve, if you give me even the slightest bit of feedback regarding my writing, or even erotica in general, I will be listening, and I will be taking it to heart. Fitting the mold is not something I do well, and generally, I try to be different, so as to offer something that is not seen, or rarely seen to readers, and in doing that, I'm gambling with my ideas, so as I try to create things that are unusual and out of the ordinary, I also want to hear what interests you have, what you want to see, what you see that you like, what you secretly love but never see.
Feedback like this, is valuable to me, not because I'm short on idea, but because I want to know you better so that I'm not writing stories that are so far in left field that they are not worth reading. An analyst in my past, I value information greatly, and the more I know of baseline interests, the easier it is for me to (while not writing cookie cutter stories) weave in unique elements with key base elements that make up a good bit of reading.
Now that I've laid out my baseline of how I operate, and quite possibly bored you (If so, I'm sorry! I promise you're at the end!), now I can open up a little bit about who I am, and how to contact me. I am ex-military (rating undisclosed), a former analyst, and now a happy truck driver. Even when I'm sleeping, the truck around me is rolling along at 60 mph, when I say 'Constant Motion', I kid you not. I've been married for almost six years now to a beautiful and intelligent woman whom inspires my writing when it comes to female characters. Because of my wife, I am also a firm supporter of having a positive body image, regardless of size, my wife being a curvy woman, I do write characters of all shapes and sizes, and I try not to overdo it on the personality spectrum, but I am very fascinated by female characters with strong, independent, and colorful personalities, and you will find few (if any) weak women in my writing.
If you want to know more, or you want to catch me, you can always use the links above to Facebook and Twitter to reach me, and I will respond quite quickly. If you would like to reach me directly by e-mail, just use the link here. I generally will respond to any messages received the same day, though I ask 24-48 hours to get to it. Being a truck driver, I usually have to get off the highway to answer my e-mail or to check my accounts, so if I'm not prompt, it's just because I'm working. If you need my attention quicker, or I fail to meet the specified time frame, send me another message, and put something to the effect of "I'm e-mailing you for the second time" in the subject line, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can pull off the road. I know I'm not famous or popular, but being easy to contact and open for feedback is extremely important to me, as are any that read my content, and I am very serious about making sure that my readers feel like they are being heard.
For giving me your time, I want to thank you for allowing me to be heard. I look forward to posting more, and hearing from you. Take care, and happy reading, no matter who's story you're indulging in.
