“Sharing the Captain” in Smut by the Sea, Vol. 2

When she accepted Henry Carpenter’s proposal, Kate knew she was taking a man who would look to his vessel and the sea first. Perhaps in time she would regret it—would come to wish she desired someone capable of loving any human thing. Someone like Carpenter’s First Lieutenant, an older man with a gentle, weathered face, […]

“Le Nouvel Abelard” in SEAF’s 2023 Literary Art Anthology

A kinky historical piece inspired by two philosophers: first, Peter Abelard – most famous for his castration – really did write about monk bondage and oral fingering in Eden as examples in his ethical ponderings. Then the title and setting evolved as a tribute to Rosseau, who was pretty kinky in his own right. Here’s […]

“Guessing Game” in Erotic Teasers

You can read a revised and expanded version of “Guessing Game” for free as a welcome gift when you join my mailing list. Excerpts Roland shakes his head, the blindfold pulling in his long hair without in any way slackening. “I’m not sure.” “Guess anyway,” Mike suggests. He shakes his head again, more in confusion […]

“Driftwood” in In Starlight & Shadow

Excerpt At first, the carving looked like a circle; then Mirin made out the entwining limbs, the heads bowed to meet each other, their features only suggestions. The sculpture of an embrace depicted the action more than the actors. It gave the impression not of stillness, but endurance; the lovers weren’t frozen but had found […]

“What He Brought Home” in Union

You couldn’t always control what would mark you, what could change you forever. But sometimes you were lucky enough to see it coming and say yes. Kanovan returns from his interplanetary trips with an array of toys and tools to create sensations, sometimes extreme. As much as Mirin loves the kink, loves to leave a […]

“Drifting” in The Circlet Treasure Chest

This collection includes my femdom zero-g bondage piece, “Drifting.” In this collection of fifty short-short erotic tales reprinted from the Circlet Press website, authors explore all permutations of sex and sexuality, pushing the boundaries of gender, theme, genre and tone. There’s a little something for everyone in this treasure chest of infinite possibility, as authors […]

Teleny, or The Reverse of the Medal, by an anonymous author (or authors, and possibly Oscar Wilde)

It’s humbling to realize everyone who’s read a Kindle edition of Teleny over the past five years is doing so because I wanted to read it myself. In 2019 (so-called precedented times), I read an excerpt of Teleny in the anthology Pages passed from hand to hand. It was lush, frankly erotic, and in parts […]

“The Summer After” in Seattle Erotic Art Festival Literary Art Anthology 2018

Excerpt: Maybe he wanted me or maybe he just wanted another human being to feel good with. Maybe he was desperate, and that was his reason for going upstairs with me. And if so, that was fine. He had plenty of reason to be desperate, far more than I did. We didn’t need more noble […]

On Kinky, Queer Love – Thank You

Earlier this month (November 2), I posted about a book that means a lot to me. It’s a small one – just 44 pages in paperback, less than 6,000 words long – and I wish it were longer because it would have meant John Theriac had been able to write more. Kinky, Queer Love collects […]

“Likeness” in Like A Chill Down Your Spine

Excerpt The skeleton, the Death’s-image, was in many ways the most important part of the frescoes. It had appeared in them since the times when different gods presided over Paradise, Saints had not yet walked the earth, before the towers of the City had been raised. Corpses remained constant, and in all ages they looked […]
