Summer in SPACE!

 

In my Summer Lovin' contest entry, Summer in SPACE! (Adult Content) a young spaceman flies to Armstrong Naval Space Station at Earth-Moon Lagrange Point 1, and docks in time to see the Summer Solstice Festival. The station commander, Space Force General Rhodes turns up the heat in A sector on the Earth Ring, and turns up the lights. There is also a Winter Solstice Festival which General Rhodes describes as "Same thing with more holly."

Futuristic Jousting

 

Futuristic Jousting

I wanted to do a jousting image in a futuristic setting and this is what I ended up with. I love the way the stadium turned out - ancient, hewn from the side of a mountain. I love the crowd also. Their clothing could be from any era and with everyone standing, it looks like a stadium where an old school soccer rowdy would feel at home. I'm not sure why my gladiator isn't holding the handlebars, maybe she saw a photographer and is posing for Page 6.

Happy Anniversary! We've been together for TWENTY YEARS!!!

 Twenty years ago this week I put pen to paper—or fingers to keyboard—and published my first erotic story, Sea Cat and the Dragon Lady. It was actually a story I wrote for an on again/off again lover, a story of what I was planning to do to her at our reunion. She was into bondage and lots of kinky things. She also had a thing for Renaissance Fairs, something I also enjoyed. Sea Cat devised a basket of flowers with handcuffs for the Dragon Lady where she was handcuffed and nobody could tell. He took off her panties and replaced them with a pearl G-string and took her for a walk around the RennFaire. She was bound in public and nobody could tell, and the pearl G-string under her skirt drove her crazy. Bound and brought to orgasm in public and no one noticed—my lover's fondest wish.

                 My lover thought that was great and two weeks later came my next opus The Revenge of the Dragon Lady, that was based on a fantasy that she was eager to try. The Dragon Lady wanted to have an evening exploring an FFM Menage a Trois, but first she wanted to try the FF portion of the Menage. In my fertile imagination, Sea Cat (C-Cat) had to sit in the other room and listen to the girls carry on. It was the Dragon Lady's form of bondage on C-cat, he had promised to sit and wait until they were ready for him, and it was painful, but he remained true to his word.

                 That was followed two weeks later by Camping in Bondage. I grew up in a pine forest that was planted by hand, so the trees are all in long rows and I thought a couple could have a lot of fun camping in the trees and enjoying each other. The setting of Camping in Bondage is about 100 yards away from the cabin that Nick restored for Mike von Köster.

                 Then life intervened, my lover went one way and I went the other. I crash landed in Denver and in 2008 I crawled out from under the rubble and wrote Just Friends, a story based on something that happened in the previous century. A lot of that story is true, it really happened, but everything else is a lie. Even the names are lies. That was followed by my first and second big mistake as a writer, Naveen Knights. Once upon a time there was an awesome, sexy story called the Virgin Princess. It was sexy and kinky and it disappeared. I tried to rekindle the fun and kink from that story, but it was really awful. That put me off writing for a while, as did my employer.

                 A bad job with good pay is still a bad job and "Uncle Brian" did me a favor by tossing me to the streets. I was still in denial about my disability and searching hard for work. My doctor finally convinced me that the altitude was killing me so I moved to God's Waiting Room and began to write. I wrote A Krissmas Karole for the 2021 Winter Holiday contest, but I missed the submission date, so I started writing the back story about Don Campbell and his cute little Vietnamese girlfriend Lanh. I wrote the first chapter of We're a Wonderful Wife, but since it had been so long since I had posted anything, I wrote a little side story of Don and Lanh having fun in Luxembourg while he was stationed nearby in Germany.

                 Serendipitous Liaison was a fun story to write and took me back to Luxembourg. (I love Luxembourg) And I haven't stopped writing since, even though it taught me a painful lesson - don't make the titles too fancy. If the reader doesn't understand the title, they won't read the story. Aim for the lowest common denominator. My Very Dear Cô Dâu was another lesson in that vein. Cô Dâu is Vietnamese for wife. The story is a letter. A very lonely Airman Don Campbell was sitting alone in Germany, missing his wife so he writes her a love letter.  It's a sweet story, but it tanked. No more fancy titles for me.

                 My Summer Lovin' contest entry stayed true to that lesson. Summer in SPACE! was written in the Alan Scarlett universe, twenty Earth years after Alan hung up his spurs and became President of Mars. My uber-awesome beta/editor KMaz told me that she didn't like Sci-Fi, but she liked this one. There's nothing weird or painful about it, it's exactly what you've found in all my other stories: young horny man meets a woman old enough to be his mother and, as they say in the Western Alliance Navy, "In Space, No One Can Hear You Cum." It's not an Alan Scarlett story so you don't need to know the lore, but there's plenty of callbacks to those stories so if you have read them, you'll recognize the mentions. It will go live in 2 weeks, on August 15. I'm hoping to have Stormwatch ready for you a week after that.

                 So back to Stormwatch 17. It's moving along quite nicely. I've got 9000+ words into it and I really like the feel of it. While Paul and Andi are visiting a Country Roads rehearsal in North East Pennsylvania, Yi turned the twins over to Heather and Harold and she and Kenny took off to Cocoa Beach to get the boat ready for Madam Mayor. Theres a lot of bonding between Kenny and Yi's dad Stan. Stan is still the captain of the Andi's Dream and he wants to train Kenny, get him a Coast Guard license so he and Yi can haul paying passengers letting Stan and Sunny retire. I think I'm going to modify SpaceX's Starship. I'm going to strap two Falcon 9 boosters to Starship and make Starship Heavy for this story. Why not? It's MY world. Here's an advertisement for cruising on Andi's Dream.

 And finally -

                 As I look back on 20 years of writing, I can see no end in sight. So many ideas still cropping up, and it's you, the reader that makes it all worth my time. Your comments on my stories are worth every key stroke, every busted keyboard, every leaky air piston on every cheap office chair, every aching wrist, every cramped finger. Like my publisher says, "Comments to writers are like wings to angels. They help us fly." Even back handed compliments like "Hey! This didn't suck as bad as usual!" help. A few folks here like Ender 2k2k, SexySenior56, Boyd Percy, and so many more, they're there as soon as the story goes up, sometimes with nothing more than to say, "Hi! Thanks for writing!"

                 You have no idea how much that means.

Welcome to Kodu Chapter 4 - The Nature of Magic on Kodu

 The Nature of Magic on Kodu

The planet Kodu is a world of magic. There are wizards, witches, magical creatures, and even magical methods of travel. So how does this happen on Kodu but not on Earth? Well, to be honest, before the Starfall that destroyed every city on Kodu, the elves were far more advanced scientifically than humans ever were. Because of millennia of scientific research, the elves became more capable at magic than humans ever were.

At the very deepest level, magic is the manipulation of two sub-atomic particles known as Allokos, and Tháumos. Allokos is the particle of order, structure and potential. Tháumos is the particle of change, energy, and possibility. These particles have quantum mechanical barriers and therefore, in nature, cannot interact with each other. However, if those quantum mechanical barriers can be overcome and the allokos and tháumos particles are allowed to interact, magic occurs. Someone who has Romi, which is the strength to bind the allokos with the thaumos in the right combinations, can cause a quantum event known as a Tarachi which is a disturbance in the fabric of reality, which the commoner calls magic. Manipulated properly a tarachi can heal wounds, turn a sword into a plowshare, and cause a dog to speak any language you desire. It all depends on the discipline used and how it's applied.

Sometimes a commoner will assume that wizards and witches accumulate allokos and thaumos, but on Kodu they are always available to a wizard or witch. Allokos and thaumos are common parts of the fabric of life. Another misconception is that of mana. Commoners believe that wizards accumulate mana, and they cannot do magic if they do not have enough mana. Mana does not exist; there is no such thing. The commoner may be confused about a wizards romi, his strength to manipulate allokos and tháumos, but in reality the main reason why a wizard won't do magic is because he doesn't want to or doesn't see a need to do it. Occasionally it is because he doesn't have the strength or the imagination (fantasia) to do the kind of magic requested. And lastly (and most often) it's because you didn't pay him enough. (Even wizards need to eat)

Magical Disciplines

Magevo or Witches Magic

Common tarachis spun by an adept at magevo is often used for healing wounds. They often use magevo to help crops grow, or pickled vegetables to ferment faster, sourdough starter to rise faster, or dye fabric without dyes. Witches can leave their body behind and accompany an animal, fly with a hawk, run with a stag. This is called Enosi or Joining.  It's not a permanent thing, when the animal is tired of enosi, the animal kicks them out. Successful levitation and locomotion while levitating is the sign of a skilled witch. Witches do not need a broom to fly, but straddling a broom prevents people on the ground from looking up their skirts. They don't need a familiar, but cats and owls are fun to have around and don't mind trainees attempts at joining. Witches Magic is often called "kitchen magic."

Duke Nicholas Stein is an advanced adept at Magevo, but he says it gives him a headache to use magic.

 Magos or Wizard's Magic

While a witch can learn her craft in a few years, Magos or Wizard's Magic takes decades to learn. It combines advanced manipulation with quantum entanglements, but it also requires intense study of the world around. Alignment of the stars often makes binding the allokos with the tháumos much easier and a wizard is able to do so much more during a Stardance. The results of magos is only limited by the wizard's fantasia (imagination), his romi (strength), and the amount of training he has had.

Note: while a wizard may be able to change shape to a lion, they are a man dressed like a lion, they don't know how a lion thinks or communicates. Duke Nicholas Stein was affected by ancient Elven magic, Vanemate Rasside Jõud, the Power of the Elder Races. This made Duke Nicholas a Polyeidus, a person who can actually become those creatures. When he becomes a different creature, he can think and act like that creature. According to Elven legend, only an elf is capable of becoming a polyeidus.

Gois or Enchanter

Gois is the most powerful adept at Magos. What makes a gois is not the amount of study, but romi, their natural strength to manipulate allokos and tháumos. They are so powerful that they can perform tarachi inside their targets mind. If they can achieve that, without destroying their target's mind, they don't need to become a lion, their target or targets will see them as a lion. Enchanters are rare. Neth Skelm was an Enchanter.

Goissa or Enchantress.

A goissa is a female enchanter, also known as an enchantress. The enchantress is considered dangerous because she can manipulate a man's sexual desires and enslave him, but that is a two edge sword. If an enchantress manipulates a man (or woman) to desire her, she in turn ends up feeling the same desire toward her target. It is rumored that Duchess Octavia Stein is an Enchantress which would make her the most powerful magic user on Kodu. It is also said that she had enchanted Duke Nicholas and often wears a gown that is completely transparent to the man she enchants and to tease him, she wears it at palace functions. Rumors abound that she uses the enchanted staff Virga with the ancient artifact the Orb of Jørn as a long-range weapon.

 Magical Species

 Fairies

Fairies are the most magical of all humanoid species. Everything about them is magic, without magic they would not exist. They can understand and speak any spoken language, and read any written language. They can lull any baby to sleep with their singing and are adept at telepathy but it bothers most humans. Contrary to common belief, fairies reproduce sexually, in fact sometimes that's all they do. Humans have a hard time telling male fairies from female fairies, but they don't need to know. Only the fairies do.

Elves

Elves are the most magically powerful species of humanoid on Kodu. It is said that an elf wizard is born skilled in manipulating allokos and tháumos and their training is mostly a matter of teaching themselves to control their impulses. There are few elf wizards and elf witches. The wizards serve elven royalty and rarely speak to anyone outside of the royal classes, but there are rumors of elven wizards in Teurnia, a non-elven kingdom. It is said that elves are being trained in Magevo in Uduithia, a human kingdom with elf villages.

Humans

A human that is skilled enough to properly manipulate allokos with thaumos is rare. Often it's found that the best wizards have some elf ancestry. Humans have built universities to train human wizards with mixed results. Vampires and Werewolves are humans that were cursed by an elf wizard in their ancestor's past. They have high romi or strength but lack the imagination to manipulate allokos and thaumos into something useful.

Gnomes

Most gnomes are born knowing Magevo, or witches magic, which makes them ideal garden gnomes. However, gnomes do not have the desire or strength to advance their magical abilities.

Dwarves

Dwarves are masters of earth and stone, great craftsmen and rune-workers. Dwarves with any magical abilities are rare but their magic is handy in shoring up new tunnels.

Goblins

Goblins are clever and cunning, they use magic in chaotic and unpredictable ways. Fortunately they are light on romi so their attacks are rare and weak. They're more effective with their claws.

Demi-giants

There is no record of a demi-giant with any magical abilities.

Animal Farm

 Once upon a time, George Orwell wrote Animal Farm, which many took as a warning. As time went by the warning was forgotten and people began to see it as a fairy tale, which it was not. It is prophesy. Here is a list of all countries where socialism/communism worked:
