Update 09/08/2015
Posted this on my Patreon site as well...but sadly very little to update.
I was hoping to have this whole three-day weekend (it was Labor Day here in the US) to writing, to graphics, to having time to myself...and then crap just seemed to unravel and I was running around from one errand to the next.
I did catch up on some long lost sleep...actually woke up at decent times Saturday and Sunday, but not much time to writing before I had to dive into the day :( Did get a little bit of EC02 worked on, as I only had an hour here and an hour there.
Why is it the the more time you have off for a weekend, the less you have to yourself.
So my apologies to everybody, did not get as much accomplished as planned...although I did get the lawn cut, the car serviced, clothes shopped, groceries shopped, house cleaned, and a bunch of bills paid...but little "me" time...

Lazy weekend...08/30/2015...
After having spit out the three parts of Extenuating Circumstances, this has been pretty much an "off" weekend in terms of writing. Got a little bit of EC02, but nothing really to show for it.
Starting next weekend will be the focus on Lifeguard Gets Wet for the month of September, so everybody should see some movement on that.
Although it's been mentioned in the comments, for those who read Extenuating Circumstances 01 from the Patreon site, please be sure to visit the Literotica site and vote for all three parts...and be honest! I value the ratings as a gauge on what people like. Even though there are some "haters" who spam low scores, Literotica admins are pretty good removing those and for the longest time, it has been the only thing I had to go by in terms of what people liked. Now with the Patreon site, I have an additional meter, but I also realize not everybody can donate and don't hold that against anybody...so please vote on Literotica at the very least!
Currently the rating are:
Thanks again to everybody for their support, whether through the Patron site, here, or Literotica! It's greatly appreciated!

Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01 Part 3 - SUBMITTED!
As I mentioned previously, Part 3 is the shortest of the three parts...in fact, it barely made three pages of Literotica format; however, I think you'll all find there's more "action" in Part 3 than 1 and 2 combined, hehehe.
Working on getting the Patreon stuff there, so should be available in the next few minutes.
Probably taking a break this weekend before I focus September on Lifeguard Gets Wet...so we'll see if I get anything else done! ;)

Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01 Part 2 - APPROVED!
Now available for your viewing pleasure, the second part of Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01 has finally been approved and released on Literotica:
https://www.literotica.com/s/extenuating-circumstances-ch-01b
This one took a bit longer to get released than I thought, but hopefully those of you who have not seen the early releases by being a Patreon patron will enjoy! This one took so long, Part 3 is ready to be posted, so I'll be doing that this evening as well as posting the final version of Part 3 up for all Patreon patrons and updating the other rewards appropriately....
Part 3 was the last 'major' push for EC for a bit. Starting next week, once all the Patreon donations go through, I will be focusing my efforts towards finishing and finalizing Lifeguard Gets Wet per my Tier 7 patron's direction. I'm not certain yet what the secondary story will be...once my primary story Lifeguard Gets Wet is completed, it's up to the Tier 7's direction. That being said, there's one person willing to become a Tier 7 when it's available for me to focus on Lapdancing Girlfriend, LOL...but possibly in a direction I had not thought of (more on that later). It might very well be EC02 or even a new story...but again, the focus starting next week is going to Lifeguard...

Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01 Part 2 - SUBMITTED!
WHAT? Inconceivable! Two DocCIS releases in one week...
As I mentioned, the second and third parts of EC01 are shorter than the first part. For those waiting for sex...this is where it begins in more ways than one!
This part only went to seven pages on Literotica...but it's packed with more 'action' than the first part ;)
ALL Patreon Patrons have access to the early release now in the "Final Stories" Dropbox link. In addition, Tier 3 Patreon Patrons now have access to Part 3's rough draft!
I am hoping to have the third part out within this coming week. My goal is to get all of Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01 released before September when my main focus is upon the Tier 7 Patreon patron's goal which is Lifeguard Gets Wet. These last two weeks of August are the only time I'll have to 'catch up' and get those three parts completed before I devote all my time to that.

Holy Overlord! Tier 7 Patron!
To both surprise and a deep sense of humbleness, there is a Tier 7 patron out there! Although I appreciate everybody down to the single dollar donations, this was an achievement I was not expecting so soon after setting up my Patreon site!
THANK YOU!
What this means is they are the taskmaster and slave-driver to me...my physical Muse. They are the puppetmaster to my strings, LOL.
As such, I will be devoting my time towards their particular story...which happens to be Lifeguard Gets Wet...so my primary focus doesn't necessarily change; however, what DOES change is I'll be spending less time on other stories as long as they are willing to spend that amount of money. I still have EC0102 and EC0103 in final draft form, and if I have only minimal time to write, I'll review and edit those on the side, but whenever I have more than an hour to devote towards writing, Lifeguard gets me focus.
Again, appreciate everybody who has pledged donations...but this was something completely unexpected! Thanks again!

Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01 Part 1 - APPROVED
My Extenuating Circumstances story (Ch. 01A) has been approved and can now be read by everybody on Literotica!
It was approved a lot faster than I imagined, but as I said, typically with authors who have posted before, they are pretty lenient when they know you are not posting a bunch of gibberish ;)
I'll be reviewing Ch. 01B this week when I have time, and then the weekend will be devoted to Lifeguard Gets Wet (speaking of which, look to the right for teaser images!).
Again I want to thank everybody for their support on Patreon and even those who cannot support, I am very appreciative of all your support and comments!
As an additional note, I started a new "short" story that is mostly a graphical story and not something I'll post on Literotica...but I'll say more on that when I have things a bit more figured out ;)

Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01A - SUBMITTED!
What's that you say? A DocCIS story coming out soon?
Unbelievably I finished my final review of Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01A (first of three parts) today! It's been a long way coming, and with the new Patreon site, I felt obligated to get something published! Hopefully this is the start of a wonderful relationship with me and all of you fans!
The story ended up being TWENTY PAGES in Literotica format...so it's a biggie...although that's pretty typical for me, LOL! Even so, remember this is PART ONE of a THREE PART chapter! And then I need to put it to illustrated format...so this is going to be a whopper, hehehe.
Expect to see the chapter appear on Literotica within a few days. Usually it takes anywhere from three days to a week, and usually they let already published authors sooner, but we'll see, particularly since it's been quite a while since I posted anything.
My priority is still to finish up Lifeguard Gets Wet ASAP, but I'll also be reviewing EC0102 on the side. Weekdays it is easier to review already written stuff than new stuff, so hoping EC0102 will be posted soon as well. It's shorter than Part 1, so we'll see...

Update 08/10/2015
Was a bad weekend in terms of finding time for writing or graphics :( I was doing some long-overdue maintenance on my system, upgrading my laptop to Windows 10 (which failed), and getting my son's system ready for Windows 10...all of which took way more time than I had planned...as in all fricking weekend!
I worked a little on Extenuating Circumstances. The more I think about it, the more I plan on providing the story in the previously revealed storyboard form, as well as PDF form, as well as the provided high resolution images. That makes distribution a bit of a problem, but will figure that out before release...which is a long way ahead, LOL. Then again, if I release the story to Literotica in pure text, I may not have to worry about the PDF form for e-readers. But again, long way off...
Worked a bit more also on my Lifeguard story, but nothing really to show for it other than grammatical edits, a few paragraphs being rearranged, etc.
One bit of good news...I've been asked to contribute my 3D graphical art to an art book! I get a royalty and all...which isn't really why I'm doing it, but that will help. The main reason is the exposure. My art will be alongside the likes of Brothers Hildebrandt and many other well-known artists, so it will be a privilege to have something around those names!
Ran a bunch of errands over the weekend which also impacted my "me" time, LOL...so all in all, not a satisfying weekend...and now starting what already looks to be a crappy week at work, so even this early Monday morning looking forward to the weekend! ;)

Update 08/03/2015
Yup, you're eyes are not deceiving you...two updates back-to-back, LOL.
Was working on a more "quality" render for an Extenuating Circumstances scene, in light of my character introductions not impressing some people ;) This is the opening sequence of what I would consider the graphic story...so curious as to what people's thoughts are, for good or bad.
As I was putting this together and letting it render for a few hours, I thought how I would post a graphical story. What I envision is more than a comic strip, and even more than just inserting images into a story like my Skyrim story. I wanted something entertaining, visually stimulating, and that would make people want to buy additional items. In putting together the storyboard, I discovered that making such things does not necessarily provide a high quality image because of the low resolution needed for E-readers and online reading. I am now thinking to provide the graphical story in PDF format, but with an attachment containing all the high resolution images as well.
What do you think?
For example this is kind of what a page of the PDF would look like:
As you can see, the image loses a lot due to the conversion and whatnot...but the software allows me to publish to Kindle, Comic Book format, and other formats, as opposed to all the workarounds I would have to do in Photoshop.
Here is the full high-resolution image:
Obviously a much cleaner image (and hopefully of a caliber people would consider buying).
But what does everybody think? Does the storyboard version lose too much in the conversion? And would it be enough compensation to provide the original high resolution image with the storyboard PDF version that people could live with it?
The alternative is to fall back to a Word-type document where the pictures are just inserted at key points, but I like the storyboard version because I can add little things that "fit" better...like when describing how her skirt rides up to show her garters, I can put in a smaller image showing that in the margin, without losing the ambiance of the story.
Just bouncing ideas around...and you all are my sounding board, LOL...so please, tell me what you think!

Update 08/02/2015
God, I cannot believe it's already AUGUST.
This past week not much got done. I was out sick last week for a couple days, so had to make up the lost time at work...so ended up having 5 12-hour days...so by the time the weekend came, I didn't want to do much of anything.
Yesterday went through more Extenuating Circumstances 0101...I'm about 75% through it...damn, I write some long stories, LMAO! Takes a while when you're going over every single work, sentence, and paragraph to find any mistakes, clean up some stuff, and what have you.
Then I had a system failure and it took the rest of the day to get back to where I was. My NAS started acting up and it ended up being a bad cable, but it took HOURS to figure out what the heck was going on because the symptoms were intermittent...which made troubleshooting it even more grueling. So didn't get much of anything done from about noon to midnight...and by then, was too tired to do anything.
Still no decision on posting EC0101 on Literotica or holding out to make it a published work. You all weren't much help, LMAO...just kidding, sort of. The problem I know is many of you want to see SOMETHING, actually ANYTHING published by me at this point...it HAS been a while...so the prospect of an already-finished piece is like a carrot dangling in front of you. So you want me to post a piece, or at least finish my current "shiney" so I can work on the next piece.
Anjali made a comment in my last post about my graphics not being of sufficient quality to make them interested in purchasing them. It was a fair statement, as all I've shown in most of my graphics here have been rough drafts and nothing' I've really taken the time to do..but it still gnaws at me ;) For those interested, I again mention if you want to see my alter ego's work, PM/e-mail me and I'll point you to my Facebook page. I think my work there will speak as to the quality of my images. But even if you don't, I've decided to spend some time and make the first image to EC0101 and post it here...that way you can see the quality and style I'll be shooting for at least for that story...so it will hopefully be coming in the next week or so.
Still working on Lifeguard Gets Wet...I just needed a change after focusing upon it for so long so blew off the dust on EC0101...but will be getting back to Lifeguard probably today. I already KNOW what I'm going to be writing about, so I'm hoping the rough draft will be done in soon enough and I can send it to the artist for a review...make edits, and hoping to finish...by then I'll hopefully know what I'm doing with EC0101, LOL.

Introducing Suzanne Carter (née Simmons)
One of my goals has always been to publish ILLUSTRATED versions of my stories. I've always posted the FREE text versions online, so feeling that pulling them and beginning to charge for them was an injustice to those newly discovering the stories on Literotica, I thought changing them enough such that they were illustrated would draw in both old fans and new.
It has been suggested my newest story, Extenuating Circumstances which involve Suzanne, Jen' (aka Diamond from Lapdancing Girlfriend) I publish straight out and skip posing on Literotica.
So I'm torn... Waiting to publish Extenuating Circumstances means a delay in posting anything. I am still working on finishing up my Lifeguard Gets Wet story...as that will be illustrated by an artist who has requested it as a commission...but not sure what to do from there.
Lapdancing Girlfriend 06 is somewhere between 75-90% completed (honestly don't remember where I left off as my attention has been on Lifeguard)...so it would be the next one to follow being posted on Literotica if I hold off.
But curious what you all think.
Writing is a hobby, as such, I devote limited time to it. If I start getting paid for published works, that would give more incentive into putting more time into it as I would have it as additional income. But I know it's been a year now since I published anything and people are getting antsy.
Curious to hear what you think!
In the meanwhile, I've been working on prototypes for Suzanne and her illustrations which I want to do with EC. Starting new and fresh with a story not yet published means I can tilt the story to help out the illustrations and vice versa. If I go back and illustrate one of my existing stories, some things will need to be changed (outfits, colors, and the like) in case I cannot find something similar to illustrate.
But here is the first reveal of Suzanne Carter (née Simmons)...so let me know what you think! To pull the description from the story:

But here is the first reveal of Suzanne Carter (née Simmons)...so let me know what you think! To pull the description from the story:
Looking for any reason to distract her thoughts, Suzanne looked at her reflection in the mirror behind the bar. What she saw was not the normal, care-free, and somewhat straight-laced twenty-four-year-old she was used to seeing, a woman happily married and living in a nice gated suburban neighborhood. The woman looking back at her from the mirror was a complete stranger, the opposite of everything she had been. The woman in the mirror across the bar was dressed for sex, her long wavy ‘bronde’ hair cascading over her shoulders and resting upon the unconcealed swell of flesh at her chest, her breasts bulging and practically hanging out of her immodest cocktail dress.
The satin black dress hugged her body like a second skin, leaving little to the imagination. The deep neckline unashamedly exposed more of her natural 35C fleshy mounds than she was comfortable with—but once again she had little choice in the matter. The dress was held gingerly to her body by two thin straps, and without them, the dress would have left her half-naked, the back of the dress completely opened down to the soft swell and ‘Y’ of her ass.

Update 07/27/2015...Imminent new release?
What if I told you there was a new release coming soon?
No, it isn't Lifeguard Gets Wet
No, it isn't Lapdancing Girlfriend
No, it isn't Annie
That probably answers the top three questions, LOL...but let me explain.
I've been working on Lifeguard Gets Wet exclusively over the last 2 months. This weekend I was staring at the same page for over 3 hours trying to get into it and it just wasn't happening. I wanted to write, but as I stared at the pages of the new content I was writing, I couldn't write.
It wasn't necessarily a case of writer's block, just that I've been working on the same story nonstop for so long. Typically when I write, I'll focus on one particular story, but every so often I'll dabble into something else, and I've been trying to get Lifeguard done for the storyboard I put everything to the side...much to my detriment. I am approximately 65% done with Lifeguard. It's been going slowly, but I am now at a point where I know exactly what I'm going to write...so the next 35% is not going to be as long...but I've hit sort of a plateau in terms of momentum.
Then I decided to do a little housecleaning on my hard drive. OMG I had a lot of shit. Mostly programs that I never used any longer, games I haven't played in over a year, that sort of thing. Then I hit my Story folder.
As I was sorting through it, I realized I had THREE finished pieces waiting for my "final" review. The first chapter of Extenuating Circumstances is a three parter...and all three parts have been complete for MONTHS. I simply put them aside to work on Lifeguard and never got back to them.
So I opened EC0101 and started reading...and reading...and editing. I am about 75% of the way done and I will have the first release hopefully uploaded to Literotica this coming weekend. I know it's not a continuation of any of my other stories, and it's not even the one I've been working on since April. But at least it's a story release.
The good news? That was EXACTLY what I needed to get back into the mood for Lifeguard...and I wrote about 15 pages yesterday afternoon of new content for it after taking a break from EC...so my muse is back...she just needed a little variety to get her juices flowing.
Won't have much time until the weekend again, but I'm going to finish up the first part of Extenuating Circumstances, get it posted, then it's back to Lifeguard...with little breaks here and there for EC0102 and EC0103 ;)
So good news I guess...it's been so long since I've had a release, I'm hoping people don't mind it's a new story from me and not one of my continuations....
No, it isn't Lifeguard Gets Wet
No, it isn't Lapdancing Girlfriend
No, it isn't Annie
That probably answers the top three questions, LOL...but let me explain.
I've been working on Lifeguard Gets Wet exclusively over the last 2 months. This weekend I was staring at the same page for over 3 hours trying to get into it and it just wasn't happening. I wanted to write, but as I stared at the pages of the new content I was writing, I couldn't write.
It wasn't necessarily a case of writer's block, just that I've been working on the same story nonstop for so long. Typically when I write, I'll focus on one particular story, but every so often I'll dabble into something else, and I've been trying to get Lifeguard done for the storyboard I put everything to the side...much to my detriment. I am approximately 65% done with Lifeguard. It's been going slowly, but I am now at a point where I know exactly what I'm going to write...so the next 35% is not going to be as long...but I've hit sort of a plateau in terms of momentum.
Then I decided to do a little housecleaning on my hard drive. OMG I had a lot of shit. Mostly programs that I never used any longer, games I haven't played in over a year, that sort of thing. Then I hit my Story folder.
As I was sorting through it, I realized I had THREE finished pieces waiting for my "final" review. The first chapter of Extenuating Circumstances is a three parter...and all three parts have been complete for MONTHS. I simply put them aside to work on Lifeguard and never got back to them.

Weekend Update....03/22/2015
Well crap, thank you to whomever the anonymous messages were nudging me for an update...apparently I forgot to update last week! My apologies!
Things have been moving forward on Lifeguard Gets Wet...I've been working on her training week in the hopes to get it finished by end of April so the Mystery Artist (that's what I'm calling them from now on until they reveal themselves, LOL) can get the storyboard going.
So far I'm about 50% through the chapter...but already have 2 more chapters thought out about...so if this picks up, expect to see more. I still plan on getting Lapdancing, Extenuating Circumstances, and Annie (yes, you read that right) out over the summer, but again, since the Lifeguard story is going to be a paid venture, that gets the priority right now.
Other than that, have been working on my 3D Graphics quite a bit...and thing things are slowly improving. At this point it's more practice, practice, and practice and learning from my mistakes through both my eye and others...so for those who follow my FB account, feel free to criticize anything you see! :p
Last week was a bit off my game with a cold, but this week has been relatively quiet. Have family coming up next weekend, so not sure how much I'll get done, but we'll see....

Update, News, and shift in priorities...
I haven't posted in a while, but a lot of things have been happening on the backend of real life and I wanted to share a couple of them.
First and foremost, I still plan to release the last few teasers this week. I don't have an ETA but I want them all done and posted by the end of the weekend, so keep an eye out on that.
Secondly, one of the reasons I've been busy has been my 3D Graphics obsession/hobby. I know many of you have privately contacted me on my FB name to see my work, and appreciate all the kind comments. Apparently the work has not been in vain because I have been contacted by a 3D Graphics promotional group to join them. It is not a monetary position, but I work on commissions in terms of getting the products I use in my images for free by the vendors. They pay the group to create images advertising and spotlighting their works, give us their items, and we make the images. They are then advertised all over the interwebz for that product.
I'm very excited. One of my major stipulations was I did not want this to become a "job" and be pressured into making content. I have seen way too many artists do this very same thing and suddenly they disappear from the art scene because all they are doing are promo images. And as time goes by, their artwork dwindles to exactly the same thing over and over and over falling into a rut doing just promos instead of actual art. This group is not pressuring me, and even if I only produce one piece a month they will be happy...so I'm looking forward not only to the work, but the actual exposure such advertising will bring!
Finally some other exciting news in the terms of erotica. As many of you know who have stayed with me all this time, one of my goals is eventually to illustrate my stories and sell them online. Imagine an illustrated version of Lapdancing Girlfriend where you yourself can see my version of Diamond battling Mr. DeWight for her sexual domination? Much of it has been a factor of time, incentive, and plain ignorance at how to go about that type of thing.
Well, the first step in that journey has begun! One of my stories is going to be illustrated! I have been contacted by an artist (I'll leave their identity unkown unless they want to announce it) to put to image one of my stories. Oddly, it is not one of my well-known works, but actually one of my "yet to be finished" stories--they have read the teaser and are extremely interested in putting to comic/storybook Lifeguard Gets Wet, as well as the possibility of other chapters in that storyline.
So as I mentioned in the title, my priorities are shifting slightly. I will be working mostly on Lifeguard to get the story out by May. I know, I know, everybody who knows me is screaming "OMG, he said he would never give an ETA and set a date for a release again!" LOL. I burned myself out on Lapdancing 05 as many of you know trying to get it out at a specific time, and this is the same type of thing. But the difference here is I will be paid for the work...money talks, hehehe.
So this past weekend and the upcoming weekends I will be working on the story of Penny, the young rich Southern belle who gets caught up in downtown Atlanta lifeguarding for the common man.
This is not simply an illustration of the story, like what I did with George Taskers Brandi Vavoom story, this will be putting the entire chapter into a storyboard/comic type presentation, so it can stand on its own as an illustrated story. I am basically the plot-writer, and although will have some input on the scenes and such, once everything is done, the illustrations will belong to the artist to post where and how he wants.
One of the biggest things this will accomplish is getting my work known to another audience. If people like the storyboard so much, they'll hopefully go and read the actual story. And if they like that, they will read others. The more the merrier.
The other thing this will do is get my head wrapped around actually moving forward with my illustration idea. I hope the set timeline will get me more used to deadlines, as well as getting more stories out quicker. I know last year was a disappointment to people in that I published NOTHING. This year I promise will be different...and the first published story I will do will become Lifeguard.
That does not mean I won't be working on my other stories. I always need a bit of change in writing so will undoubtedly work on my three main stories still on my agenda: Lapdancing 06, Extenuating Circumstances, and What's in a Name. Following that, Annie will get some long-overdue love. That will be hopefully FIVE releases this year, and hopefully more...but we'll see.
Anyways, I am really excited to enter this partnership and promise good things to come! Stay tuned for further information, as well as the remaining teasers that are long overdue!

2015 Teaser 04 - Extenuating Circumstances Ch. 01 Part 01/03
And so we come to the next of the unreleased stories...Extenuating Circumstances starring our favorite stripper's little sister.
As I have mentioned in the past, I'm not sure how much I'll incorporate Suzanne and Jen's lives. Currently what is happening to Suzanne is at the beginning of Diamond's entrapment by Mr. DeWight, so although she knows her sister is a stripper and working for DSA, she has not spoken to Diamond in quite some time...so other than mentioning Jen, the stories currently do not intersect. That may change, although Chapter 01 merely goes into how Suzanne has gotten into the predicament she has.
This scene takes place around page 10+ where Suzanne is beginning to learn several things about herself. Like her sister, she is finding she is a bit of an exhibitionist. In addition, her husband David has confessed he enjoys watching her 'show off' her body to other men. He has also hinted that he would probably not be upset if she did more than show the men her body, hinting at her possible sleeping with one of their neighbors.
The first and second parts of Chapter 01 are flashbacks. Suzanne is thinking about how she fell under such straights.
We learn that her husband had been in a skiing accident and broke both legs, and while incapacitated in a wheelchair, lost his job. Suzanne had only recently started working at a law firm, so money was tight...and they began paying half their bills one month, then the other half the following month, hopping back and forth. Then they get slapped with a huge fine by their Home Owner's Association, as due to her husband's disability and working late, they could not maintain their lawn.
Their elderly (60-something) neighbor comes to the rescue, as he owns a lawn service and has his men completely overhaul and landscape their lawn. The elderly widower refuses payment, but then as they are talking, they mention an upcoming neighborhood party. As the man's wife died many years ago, he usually sits on the sidelines of most parties, and with her husband unable to compete in the couple's competition, the old man suggests she could be his partner.
Uncertain, her husband and the old neighbor convince her to accept. And then the old man--aware of their money problems--offers to buy her a new bathing suit, as the neighborhood wives typically try to "out do" each other and dress sexy. Again Suzanne is uncertain, but her husband eagerly accepts and she goes to the pool party not in her usual one-piece, but a string bikini...
This scene is during one of the party's games...Marco Polo...and the women are now blindfolded and attempting to find the men in the pool. Not only do they have to catch somebody, but for extra points they have to identify them....

New Year...
Although I did not do much in terms of writing or graphics over the Christmas-to-New Year's break, I did begin working a bit on writing towards the tail-end of the vacation. I completely switched gears (again) and worked on What's In a Name. You may notice a lot more images in the picture widget for the story on the right. In the last week or so I've written well over 100 pages (Word format, so about 10+ pages Literotica). Currently this is where my Muse has taken me, and I'm really getting into developing the story.
I'm a bit uncertain how I'm going to break the story up. It has multiple sections which describe a part of the characters' lives over many years...but each section is a main story in and of itself. Originally it was going to be based upon CHAPTERS...but right now I'm at 100+ pages and only about 10% done with the FIRST storyline (yup, it's going to be a biggie!)...so I may break it into PARTS or VOLUMES with multiple chapters in between.
For those that do not want to read back to where I described it (although it's pretty easy going to the TAGS and clicking on What's In a Name), it is a story about a married woman who is obsessed with titles. She grew up in the beauty pageant circuit as a child, teen and young woman, so everything is a competition. Now that she is married and has kids, she is out of that scene, but it had been so much a part of her life, she wants to do SOMETHING to relieve the urge to show herself off. So she's a bit of an exhibitionist, but the story is more about her obsession to win titles. In this first 'part' she finds out about a series of contests at a nightclub that all make up the "Ultimate Body" title. This first story is how she enters the contests (wet t-shirt, best legs, best ass, etc.) held weekly, but keeps it from her husband, asking the help of one of his coworkers...who ultimate seduces her (or maybe she seduces him, LOL). When in the beauty pageant circuit she often slept with judges so they would vote in favor of her (a common practice according to her) so when she finds out the various co-workers of her husband are judges, she tries to swing their votes her way week after week...
The rest of the series will be her getting other various titles, such as MILF, MILFA, MILFAss, Office Slut, etc.
This story is another one where I'm attempting to have different points of views. I learned from the last time to not keep things as repetitive, so although I may go into detail with a scene described by one person, when the other is reliving the scene it is more about their thoughts and emotions. I've always admired writers who could do this and obviously need the practice, so giving it another go. This way you can hopefully understand what is going on through the main protagonist's eyes (Lindsey), her husband (Jim), and the other various characters.
I felt I needed a new direction. I had worked on Lapdancing 06 and Extenuating Circumstances to the point where I didn't even want to open them up in Word on my computer, and this was a nice clean slate I could cleanse my palate upon. Whether it will be the next story released or EC will be I don't know, but right now simply going with the flow...
As suggested in some comments, I will try on releasing a few teasers of each story I've been working on. Although it would take too much time to go through each and select a representative sample, I'll at least do a select scene for Lapdancing 06 and Extenuating Circumstances...possibly What's in a Name. But for the rest, it may simply be one-page random selections as putting in the time to find a select passage may take too long...
I'm a bit uncertain how I'm going to break the story up. It has multiple sections which describe a part of the characters' lives over many years...but each section is a main story in and of itself.

Not looking good for an end-of-the-year release :(
Although I was able to work on Lapdancing 06, Extenuating Circumstances 01, and What's in a Name, I didn't have nearly the time I wanted and looking at it, I wonder where the time went. I typically get so absorbed in the stories when I am writing I don't pay attention to the time, and although I put in a lot more effort this weekend, it didn't seem like enough.
With Christmas coming and my family visiting through the New Year, it's unlikely I'll be having a release until after they leave. My apologies, as I wanted to get SOMETHING out this year (seeing as it was a completely null year), but isn't happening :(

Off my game...
I've been a little "off my game" lately. This past weekend I worked a bit on What's In a Name, a little bit on Extenuating Circumstances, and a little bit more on Lapdancing Girlfriend 06...but nothing seemed to "click" with me.
I ended up on the couch watching bad Netflix movies, LOL and it was rather relaxing. All the stories are coming along, but guess I needed a break.
Sunday was a bit more of the same, played a bit of games online, worked a bit on the What's in a Name, and then continued my couch potato movie marathon, hehehe.
Things are moving forward, so that's good, just not as fast as I'd like, but couldn't really force myself to do something that in the end should be fun, not a job...
