Absolute Destiny-Chapter 3
The next chapter of Absolute Destiny is up for your reading pleasure. It's NSFW due to nudity and discussions about sex (although there isn't any actual sex taking place).

Happy reading and I hope people are enjoying the story so far.

New free-read series
I've had this story sitting on my HD for ages in a WIP state and haven't continued because of all the other shiny ideas that come my way. In an effort to finish it, I'm going to be posting chapters bi-monthly (at least that's the plan) on the 15th and 30th (or there abouts) of each month until I finish the beast (it's currently 130K and maybe 1/2 done).
Absolute Destiny takes place in my Divine Worship world and is the story of how Fei-Lau (God of Winter Storms), Sleet (Fei-Lau's minion) and Khale (Shard of an Ice demon clan) develop their relationship. This triad is also my hardest BDSM playing partners in any of my worlds.
Absolute Destiny-Chapter 1: http://id-locke.dreamwidth.org/73276....
And as a bonus, I've also got a one-shot from the same world with Ra-Sui (God of Decay & Guardian of Souls) and Wisp (a Shadow Soul). I will eventually write more of these two as well.
Soul Purpose: http://iron-dog.dreamwidth.org/539939...
Annnnd in the coming months I hope to finish The Fire Of Godly Devotion, which is the story of Saraf (God of Primal Flame & Lord of Metallic Dragons) and Edenlei (Geomancer of Saraf). I'm only a few chapters away from being finished that so keep an eye out for it.
Happy reading!

Feeding The Hunger
In the spirit of giving, I'm giving my readers a small novella in my Big Mystic Smoke World this holiday season. It is available on my author LJ for your reading pleasure.
Feeding The Hunger
The story is a tick over 19K, features Phane (a vampire) and Kazuhiko (an Incubus). Kazuhiko also has a small appearance in The Ugly Incubus, which is how he ended up getting a side story.
I hope you enjoy the read and happy holidays to all.

Ask me for my books because....
Not the most elegant title for a post, I know. However, if anybody was looking to purchase my stories, for the time being, don't.
Torquere Press recently announced they are closing. I've asked for and received my rights back. However, my books are still available for purchase on the TQ site as well as with various distributors. I am in the process of sending out take-down requests (since TQ no longer holds the rights to my stories and is not legally able to sell my work) and that'll likely take a couple of days for those sites to process. Books may remain available on the TQ site for some time and I'll have to deal with that when they aren't removed in a timely manner.
So, if you purchase anything of mine from anywhere from this point onward, until further notice, I'm not getting paid for it and I highly doubt I'll ever see the money from it. If there is something you really, really want to read that was published through TQ and you didn't get the chance to purchase it before today (Dec. 18, 2016), please feel free to contact me and I'll hook you up.
Thank you to all my readers for your loyalty and support over the years. Hopefully I'll figure out a way to get my stories out there again whether it's with another publisher, self-publish or as free reads. Happy reading, everybody!

Balancing Karma & Pirates
I have Google Alerts set to notify me when my name or that of one of my novels pops up on torrent sites. It happened again tonight. It was Karma again and it appears that its being hosted (or whatever) by demonoid, a major pirate hangout. The site I was directed to was a different one and I've already sent a DMAC to the site. Hopefully, they don't give me the run around and remove the link quickly. Getting anything removed from demonoid is close to impossible.
Unfortunately, everybody can thank the asshole who posted Karma up for download via demonoid for ruining it for everybody else.
Why? Because the PDF's in that torrent are the ones that I created. They are set up and named in the exact manner that I created the files. So, somebody who emailed me to ask for copies ignored my request not to post or offer Karma for DL. I'm very sorry to say, but given that this is the second time Karma has been offered for DL on pirate sites, I'm no longer going to be offering to send people copies of it.
I'm also very angry and yes, even hurt, at the actions of this person. Before I do something I may regret, I'm going to think hard about whether I'll leave Karma up or not on my LJ as a free read. I'm very upset right now. More so than the last time Karma was offered for DL because this time, one of my readers is the person who's posted the copy I gave them.
