Free Fiction Friday: I Heart U

(UPDATE: This week's free story has now been removed, though I'm keeping the post up to save the comments. Thank you to all who have viewed and commented on this tale. - Tabitha) 

Here's my Valentine's Day free tale, a week late. I wrote this pretty much in one go, and it ended up taking a very different turn from my original idea, but hopefully you'll still enjoy it.

Anyway, it could probably do with a major rewrite, but as is, I'm pretty happy with the end result. It's almost cute, by my standards, which is oddly appropriate giving the holiday theme.

The new story is after the break, as usual.

New Ebook: Laura Krauff and the Devious Djinn

I've published a new ebook, Laura Krauff and the Devious Djinn. It's an action-adventure erotic tale, featuring a certain tomb-robbing young adventuress and a wish-twisting genie with a bad attitude. Lots of fun magical alterations, including breast expansion, forced orgasms, and a bimbo transformation or two.

Hope you all enjoy this one. Technically I published this a few years ago, but I've nearly doubled the total length and added two new wishes, as well as the whole breast expansion angle.

I really enjoy this sort of erotic adventure tale, so I'll probably make a few more Laura Krauff stories in the future. I've got a fun Age-Regression idea involving the Fountain of Youth I'm just itching to write. :-)

And as a special bonus, here's another version of the cover that I made before deciding on the one above. I actually prefer the title on this version, but I wanted to better showcase Miss Krauff's splendid chest, so ended up going with the close-up above. Which do you prefer?

I hope you all enjoy this new story, and hopefully I'll finish my next one soon. I've added a new feature to the blog showing my progress on new tales. I'll update the meters with my new word counts as I get more writing done.

Free Fiction Friday: Filling In

(UPDATE: This week's free story has now been removed, though I'm keeping the post up to save the comments. Thank you to all who have viewed and commented on this tale. - Tabitha) 

Well, I totally forgot today was Valentine's Day. I had been planning to post a V-Day themed short story, but it just skipped my mind entirely.

I even had this neat little idea about Cupid shooting the wrong person with one of his love-arrows, and causing all sorts of problems for a high-brow professor. I'll just have to see if I can finish it and get it up next Friday, instead. Better late, than never.

Anyway, this week's free story is a little experimental tale I wrote more than a year-and-a-half ago, all framed as a one-sided phone conversation, with just a bit of reworking. I really like how it turned out, though I'm not sure I'd write another story like this.

I'm also hard at work on a brand-new ebook, and I have another older story I'm reworking, which I'll publish soon too. I'm going to add a little word-counter to this blog in a few days - if I can figure out how it works - and then you'll all be able to see how far along I am with some of my WIPs. Hopefully it'll motivate me to actually finish more of my little smutty tales. :-)

The new story is after the break, as per usual. Please enjoy, and let me know what you think. (Also, please don't forget about my poll up on the upper-left side of the blog. Thank you!)

A Question for Visitors

(UPDATE: Poll now added, please vote. Thank you, - Tabby)

Greetings! :-)

Over these past few months, I have been involved in several different email exchanges with a number of prospective authors, each eliciting my advice on self-publishing erotic ebooks, and how I go about creating/formatting/uploading ebooks, the financial side of the business, cover making, etc.

I don't mind answering such questions, at all, but I am wondering if there is enough interest in these topics to warrant creating a separate page on this blog which would deal with the various aspects of the self-publishing business. I know there are many resources already available online that do a nice job explaining all of this (I use several of these resources myself), but few of them are specifically devoted to erotica and I think I can provide some personal examples to illustrate some of the basic concepts in action.

So my question to all of you is this:

Are you interested in me creating a detailed guide to self-publishing erotic ebooks?

Self-publishing is a huge topic, in and of itself, never-minding the various subtopics I could get into. So even a simple, basic guide will be quite time-consuming to write. And until I start, I can't really say just how I'd even do this; as one page, or as a series of individual posts, each touching on a particular aspect of the business.

So please let me know your answer in the comments. If I can get it to work, I'll also try to set up a poll for this question as well.

And feel free to add any personal suggestions/questions you have for topics you would like to see covered in the guide. Even if there isn't enough interest to warrant making a guide, I'll still be happy to answer your questions about publishing. :-)

Free Fiction Friday: Tabby's Age-Play Holiday (WIP)

(Oops! For some reason blogger erased all my spaces in this post, making it impossible to read! I've gone back and fixed it now. Sorry for the inconvenience!)

(UGHH!!! And now the font is tiny, even though the font is set to normal size!!! ~~pulls hair out, kicks computer... bandages sore big toe~~ )

Sorry for the lack of updates these past few weeks, I've been dealing with several personal issues (mostly illness), and have had to miss the past two Free Fiction Friday posts. On the plus side, I have made progress on several new future ebooks, including a forced-lactation tale and a living mannequin story.

Today's post is a work-in-progress age-regression story I wrote early last year; I'm still trying to decide whether or not to finish it. I have the rest of the story plotted out, but I'm worried certain portions may push the boundaries of Amazon's TOS policies. I will have to rethink a few scenes, if I finish it.

Until I decide to finish this story and publish it, I will keep this story available here. All 8,000 words are after the page break, as per usual. Please feel free to let me know what you think of it so far. :-)
