Hi! 

This is basically an advertisement.

Sooooo I actually have people on my patron and that’s pretty awesome.  Not a ton or anything but some.  So, to celebrate those that had joined, I decided to write a small free story for each of them.

This is part of one of those stories and it’s also my first ferret girl TF.

I’m kinda posting this to say that, hey, yeah, I am doing stuff on Patreon.  While I’m not going to write free stories for every single new person (ouch, my fingers) it’s possible that I have fun little contests to win a story or a Choose Your Own Adventure for my patrons where they all vote using polls, that kinda stuff. 

Hello!

It’s time for me to mix things up a bit.  

With that said, I’m going to try Patreon.  Whoa, whoa, before you panic, I’ll address the important thing first:  I’ll still release my stories for free.

You can find me here: https://www.patreon.com/markgraham

What I am going to do is release on Patreon first and two or so weeks later, release out on my personal site as well as the other places I post.  So Patreon users will get first view and some users can even view drafts as I write them.

Higher levels will be able to share their thoughts on what they’d like to see in a story as they read the drafts or suggest the next story I write or even enter to win a custom short story.…

Hey.

I’ve heard from a couple of y’all since my last story and I appreciate the comments and compliments as always.  I’m in a little bit of a funk, I think.  A little worn out still and trying to decide what to do next.

I can’t decide if I’m retired from writing TF/TG stories or just taking a really long break.  I’ve talked about the reasons before but it boils down to feeling like I’m being repetitive as well as how exhausting it is to write stuff for free.

I’ve considered offering to take donations and allow for voting on what to write next or maybe opening up for commissions again but I’m not sure where I am with things yet.…

Hello!

I’m putting together a fairly short story (female werewolf TF) and I was thinking about looking for an illustrator for it.

I’m not looking for full page illustrations but mostly for little in-story images. Plain black and white or more of a sketch look, I think. Just illustrating moments from the story.

So, if you’re an illustrator and have some time in your schedule to let me commission a few images, let’s talk! Or, if you know someone you’d recommend that has some open slots, let me know.

If I can’t find anyone, I’ll probably just release the story as-is but I thought I’d look first.…

Hi!

I’m changing up the theme for the site.  If you have strong opinions one way or the other, let me know but I’ve been wanting a white background/black text page for a while.  Just been too lazy to switch.

I’ve finished the story for the publisher I’m working with.  It’s a roughly 19k TG story and as soon as it’s up in a few weeks, I’ll point it out to people.  Pretty excited about it!  Also, they’re working on posting my stories to places and I’ll link to those as well.

With that story finished, I’m going to take a short step back to figure out my next step.  …

Thanks to a keen-eyed reader, I was notified that my story “The Club” was being sold on Amazon without my permission: https://www.amazon.com/Pick-your-Poison-Perverted-World-ebook/dp/B01N5FRZI8/ref=sr_1_5?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1488477836&sr=1-5&keywords=Pick+Your+Poison

It’s crap like this that makes me not want to post things for free any more. I’ve spoken with Amazon reps and I guess their Kindle specialists will be in touch with me but, still. Incredibly frustrating.

Grrrr :(…

Hi!

First up, I’m closing commissions for a bit.  Not permanently and I’m not currently working on any commissions.

Now here’s what’s going on:

1. I’m working on a TG story for an anthology!  I’ll post a link to it (next month?) when it’s released.  Pretty excited about it :)
2. I have an idea I want to try to work out for an illustrated story.  I’m mentally fleshing out the idea but the thought is that I’d write a little short story and then make simple in-story illustrations to go with it.  I want to make a paid section of the site for things like this.  

Hi!

It’s been a bit. I’d wanted to take a break before but then stupidly thought I’d try commissions. Did a few and got dangerously close to feeling burned out completely. So I took a break, unfortunately breaking commission promises in the meantime.

So, where am I?

First – cool news, “Layers” was picked up for publishing by an erotica & romance publishing firm. Some of my other stories may also be published and, who knows, future stuff as well, maybe. I’ll post updates on that when it happens!

Second – I’ll probably start writing soon. I want to try to finish the commissions I’d accepted so I’ll try that first.…
