Kinky
Dept

I'm looking for additional test readers; this time, for previously (and already) released stories of mine. You will get freebies for reading and consuming them, in return for giving me feedback. Previous test-readers, who have found some spare time now again, are welcome to sign up for the kinky task.

(As long as this notice is up you can send me your reply. Once these spots are filled in a few weeks, I'll delete this message.)

CURRENT PROJECT
Progress feels really slow as I'm diligently working on 'Slave Uniforms 1'. I started on the project around Aug/Sep (while also posting freebies in between). I thought my usual 4-5 months would work out again, but nope! Though, I'm really happy and proud about the quality and the end results. Hopefully, it will age well, once released, over the coming months and years in all those mysterious (and well-hidden) kinky collections...

WRITING
There are still vague aspects in my writing that need sharpening and refining. Having given 'Ponies to Play 1' some well-deserved rest, I am reading it again now, and it has turned surprisingly intense (even though I've written it all and should know better, right?). Some late additions I had forgotten about and they were a positive surprise. By doing so, I'm also looking to improve on my past works. Sometimes scenes felt too long and wordy where I could have gotten to the point more quickly, and generally, written sharper.

Also, having not succumbed to any mental jumps in the future (when seeing everything from the pony's perspective) feels now even more tempting, i.e. once he gets his first chastity tube handed by the Countess (while riding together in her carriage to her stables) he didn't know it yet but after that faithful click around his best friend, he'd never be allowed to cum again by the Countess (at least, not in the pleasant sense).

When I write, it is very much written with re-readability in mind. It might be 30% more work but each time you'll understand more. The same happened with the pony story, i.e. from the athletic but mute pair, Biscuit&Gravy, to the weird hierarchy between the many stable girls and their day-to-day. Very slowly, Tom not only receives more insights, once he's occupying a pony stall himself, but you as well as the reader.

And regarding reading, I've also read some other femdom books and short stories (paid). It was fair to say that 80% were a big disappointment; either it was already over when it was getting interesting or the escalations or scenes didn't click and were generic or BDSM 'mainstream' (if I may say so). ;)

Initially, I had thought 'Slave Unit' had been my favorite idyllic-and-super-hedonistic bondage story. Turns out, the atmosphere in 'Ponies to Play 1' now hits me just as pleasantly with its kinky life.

Book 2 is already tingling in my fingers—the general plot has been long written down (back with book 1)—but financially, I can't start on it yet. Although it was a long and exhausting endeavor, it's sort of a hobby project of mine, ponies. As an independent artist, I can only sometimes afford to make that sacrifice. After 'Slave Uniforms 1' is finished, and sales have come in, I'll know if I can afford to start on 'Ponies to Play 2'. Writing it on the side wouldn't give it the right attention, energy, and creativity it deserves.

Incidentally, I've managed to refine my writing with that project—which was also the goal. A pure book (without illustrations) forces you to focus on just that one tool for storytelling. Already, I noticed how I could put it to good use in SLAVE UNIFORMS on Ch.2 'Slave Concubine' (besides committing to some historical research into the Ottoman harem for better worldbuilding *flex*). Similarly, I intend to base a future chapter on Roman or Greek slavery history, while staying on Planet XX, and keeping it much shorter than the 23-page-long harem story; or else, it won't be an art book any longer.

Overall, this more visual format of HB1+2, parts of Slave Unit, and Slave Uniforms, feels like a great mix between written and illustrated, without feeling too restricted (solely creatively speaking).

When I purely write, nothing hinders my worldbuilding, neither its coming-alive world nor the story arc. Illustrating a whole world setting successfully easily adds another two months of work on top of a 4-5 month-long project where I'm already feeling the exhaustion from the endless editing cycles a story requires. That's why I don't always want to create illustrated novels—it's quite the workload; a novel doesn't look like it, at first, but if you really want to refine it (with lots of repeated editing cycles), the weeks, then the months, shoot past you.

PROJECT LENGTHS
For some reason, making everything shorter and more serialized hasn't worked out for me—although I'm trying. Cliffhangers always suck, and once I'm in 'the zone', I can create and create; each release cycle breaks that flow and it takes some effort to dive back into it again due to the demanding workload. (Nobody shits gold nuggets.)

I'm also thinking about making a short story section here on my site. Just during the two-week holidays alone (X-mas), I came up with two potential novel ideas. Writing tiny short stories on the side wouldn't interfere much and would be a refresher in between, since I've got plenty of story snippets written down over the last four years or so. If one of those short stories gets particularly interesting and good, it could even become a full novel eventually, who knows.

In late December 2020, I had started writing on this project. And since then, had invested all my time into it. During the proofreading and rewriting, I also listen to it with text-to-speech (3rd Edit) to get a better feel for the flow. At this stage, it's still rather raw and needs a lot of rewriting--and time, lots of time.

After that, it's basically in a readable quality, and it only needs a last read-through to check for minor errors and the story flow (I had thought. The 4th edit actually took almost another month...).

ETA: released :)

Hi!

So what am I up to next?

I'm most likely starting on a femdom-oriented PONY STORY, with a male pony being the involuntary 'protagonist' (or subject).

A week ago, my 3-month-long project 'HEAVY BONDAGE 2' was finished. I'm trying to take it easy, so only consuming, no creating, which is a nice change.

I'm reading up on some writing books on plot; researching pony books, videos, movies; taking lots of early notes and snippets for the story; and reading some (more pleasant) erotic pony stories, in addition. Though, other stories (and other author's ideas) feel like a double-edged sword: it helps but it also takes away some of your own originality. (So I guess I'm really just pretending I'm reading it for 'work' :P .)

I. Binder's "A change of scene" was kinda the start of kindling my love for pony play again; it's not well written - at times, boring - but it has a few gold nuggets (or 'scenes' sprinkled in between). I guess my rather kinky fantasy was going wild and painted it well out to make it real fun. (It's available for free on GaggedUtopia or paid on Amazon.)

PONY GENRE
Becoming the literal 'work-vehicle' with a purpose, together with the amount of control over a sub, is just uncontested (i.e. vs slave stories). Besides, the level of humiliation feels equally colossal and so this BDSM sub-genre always held a very special place for me. Maybe this one gets done in 2-3 months. For once, I'm not planing any artwork (only a cover with some of the gear used) so I can conveniently place it in the EPUB format - and possibly Amazon again; I only have 'Slave Annie' on Amazon because the Kindle format is a walled-off garden, you have to pay 30%-60% fees, and they also charge you every megabyte (and, if you've noticed, most of my creations have many megabytes of kinky data). It also allows me to polish the novel more and refine my writing even a little further. But yeah, it tickled me for a while to write another novel. It feels like the least-constraining format for what I want to tell and I can add the most details in this form. (I guess I'm fighting my own hidden prejudice against the word-salad-format without visuals.)

Once I have a few more items released in the future, I might have the luxury of working longer on my projects so that I can afford to add even more immersion to my creations.

Serious Femdom Pony stories seem rare (with a confident Mistress and her controlled ponyboy) so I'm trying to aim a little higher here, particularly when it comes to piercings, long-term chastity devices, leather gear, tail-plugs, and a believable slavery world. Benson's female ponies are great, but it contains no Femdom, and if the story should play in the present age, his fantasy bondage is not very plausible and would break the spell between believability and - not surrealism - but imperfect and not-so-well-thought-out bondage settings. And don't we all want it to be riveting and believable in our minds?

Hi,

here's the first Sneak-Peek of the next, upcoming volume! I'll add further previews collectively in this post.

What I know so far about HEAVY BONDAGE 2:
• some of its stories will be longer
• less scenarios than HB1 (which had 9) but instead there'll be more total pages

I guess, in retrospect, it might have been more fun to expand on some of the short stories in HB1, with a little less self-imposed restrictions. Now that I've lifted them to give each story a little more room it feels quite spicy when I look over the 44 pages so far (as of Oct 2).

'self-imposed restrictions' - Isn't that what bondage is all about?

What I do know already is that it is becoming deeper and more detailed, with more world-building in my kinky stories and reveal more of the sorry slaves and their intricate ordeals.


Oct 14:
As things look now, I'll have time to add one more story segment. Overall, that'll stack up to 6 unique stories but totaling (probably) 60 pages.

We can safely add the Femdom tag now - as the second and fourth scenarios play within the Queendom and is rather thick and driveling with worship and male submission! ;)


Estimated Release for HEAVY BONDAGE 2: ~Early Nov 2020

Hi,

Right now, I'm reading my old stuff again, this time: 'Femdom Bedroom' (which was my second novel). Browsing over my previous creations helps a great deal at refining my story-telling skills, as you can imagine. A few minor grammar errors (relicts from editing) here and there, but mostly easy-reading material already, and very sexy scenarios. And yet, there were smaller details I couldn't remember anymore (after 1 year) and what happens when (which is obviously great for re-reading).

I'm still in cool-down mode now, aka vacation, or unpaid leave if you're self-employed—it's summer after all. I had two intense and productive months in May and June when I created 'Heavy Bondage 1'. For something creative, it's even a bit too fast but I'm super-happy with the result when I look at it now, after a one-week break.

Meanwhile, I had scribbled down a draft for a freebie comic about a slave facility that's processing males. I'm also letting the rough outlines for the next 'Heavy Bondage 2' form in my head—without much pressure—as two months per project makes life a lot easier; creating it in smaller chunks was always a goal of mine for some projects. 'Slave Unit' took 5 months +2 extra to finish and that takes a lot of energy and patience, particularly the re-writing, and re-writing, and re-writing.

With 'Heavy Bondage 1', I sort of approached a new mixed medium: large high-rez BDSM illustrations merged with kinky short stories. (I mean who could say no to that?) As I was making the first Art book, I already knew a second and third would surely follow; only its length and page count began to grow more organically as I made them patiently one by one. And each story-length always grew out of hand, and me, out of pages.

I am considering adding some medical fetish in the next book(s), like casts and bandages, wheelchairs and diapers, asylum stuff. But, it could also turn out to deserve its own booklet—I honestly don't know yet; the whole creation process is always a bit mystical—with a mind of its own that you have to just follow—and I never know (and never knew) how the end results would ultimately look. It would've eased down some of that creator stress. Yet, each time, it's the same stressful cycle, and I suppose that's an occupational hazard as an artist.

So, what's the next booklet about? Most likely more of the same: heavy, tight, inescapable, you know, restricting stuff. Stuff you only dare to fantasize about—but too scary for the real world.

And that's it for now, fellow Goddesses, Owners, Mistresses, Masters, pets, and owned property!
