So while I work out on Patreon's back end the best way to restructure memberships to do things for free, here's a little something I'm getting commissioned. The artist is @kdlf_ on twitter who one of the other QT authors recommended to me as being good for something quick and simple like this (be warned, her twitter is very NSFW and is heavy on the furry art).
It seemed a bit of a no brainer a...
2024-06-02 14:33:57 +0000 UTC View PostSo, as I'm writing this I'm a few hours out from having 7000 words of If I'm Honest ready to come to you, which probably makes May one of the most productive months I've had. Especially if you include the several thousand other words I came up with for both which were then cut for the scenes not quite working how I wanted. Writers block well and truly beaten, right?
Which might make this announcement feel a little weird. Basically, I'm going to keep posting here to Patreon the way I hav...
2024-05-31 23:13:58 +0000 UTC View PostStill waiting on CorruptingPower's final thumbs up on a few details in the 2nd section of this which we'd already discussed...so the usual caveats apply that the odd detail might change, but here's a fairly meaty chunk of what I'm working on.
I think I said previously that I have 9 scenes planned out minimum for this chapter(s) before I'm going to do a public release, and this puts me at 8500 words just from the first 3...so it's going to be pretty hefty by the time it's done.

Hey, so, the muse is back and the words are finally flowing again, so it seemed smart to give a bit of an update on my plans for things this month. I'd also thought that subscriptions were turned off until June, and only realised that they weren't when a handful of new members started sneaking in, so I'm going to roll with it and put myself back on the hook for making sure you have plenty of word count coming your way.
I've jumped straight from the recent uploads for QT:UK 10 and...

2024-04-29 05:36:47 +0000 UTC View PostHope you're all well and sorry to keep you waiting on this one. I capped off the heavy period of writers block by being out of the country on vacation for most of last month, which isn't exactly the most constructive way to get writing done. As you can see, I'm keeping any sort of payment on your end turned off until I feel like I'm able to give you something consistently worthwhile for it.
The good news is that I've managed to get something like 7000 words out of my head and onto the ...
Yeah, I know AI art is controversial and I'm not inclined to use it for anything more than this - certainly not anything that is emulating traditional art rather than stock photography - but I couldn't find a good visual reference for how I saw Riley the way I was able to for the QT:UK cast. After playing around with a few models just for my own sake I ended up with a handful of pictures that do a nice job capturing my mental image of her though and didn't see any reason not to share them wit...
2024-02-25 09:57:48 +0000 UTC View PostBut I'm getting there now.
Thanks for sticking with me with this. I've just dropped the first chunk of the next QT:UK chapter as what's pretty heavily WIP and has a bunch up for being changed still, but it finally felt like I had enough to share with you. This is going to be the longest chapter I've written for QT:UK by the time I've covered everything I think needs to go together, probably clocking in at somewhere around 15,000 words by the time I'm done, so it might still be a little ...
2024-02-25 09:29:23 +0000 UTC View Post“Anas, what the fuck are you doing!”
A woman’s voice shouted from somewhere very nearby, fraught and demanding, but Aoife couldn’t see where from. Instead, from where she lay, wet in the mud, her attention was very much on the dulled metal of the shotgun barrels pointed down towards her. The firearm was a dated, functional thing at best, the sort that she could only imagine must have sat half-used in a farmer’s shed for years, but the middle eastern looking man holding it cert...
2024-02-25 08:54:34 +0000 UTC View PostSo, you might be wondering where the updates for this month are. I'm still pretty new at this whole writing thing and doing it as a hobby which means I'm not quite as practiced at being able to just push through the writers block and make sure there's something, anything, ready to post as the likes of Corrupting Power. But being new also means I'm insanely grateful to all of you following me and it's really important to me that I feel like if I'm not delivering I'm keeping you updated and not...
2024-01-23 12:35:12 +0000 UTC View PostHappy New Year, hopefully the holidays have been good for everyone.
I was pleased I was able to get what I wanted for QT:UK and Picture Perfect in December both boxed off and delivered to you despite the busy period and travelling. Normally what happens with QT:UK is that the moment I post it here is the moment I consider a chapter 'done'. As soon as the last words are locked in and I've got input from the other QT writers it's submitted for you followers. I'll then take m...
It was much later that morning by the time Ethan woke, finding Jess softly snoozing alongside him. There was only a bare murmur when he leaned over and kissed the redhead’s forehead, and although his first instinct was to check on her feelings in the cold light of the new day, he let her sleep. His second was to remain alongside her, just lingering. Each time he paired with someone he quickly found a contentedness from merely being in their presence, and it already seemed Jess was no differ...
2023-12-30 14:46:44 +0000 UTC View PostAs I said at the start of the month, vacation, life and holidays have slowed me down a bit, but I'm on course to still get at least 5-6k of Upstart's Knight written by the end of December, alongside the Picture Perfect chapter you've already got, which is always my target of a minimum for a months work.
That said I've not entirely decided how I'm going to structure this chapter, I've got a few things I know I'm going to cover but until I get there I'm not 100% sure if they're in this ...
The next few weeks sped by in a blur of work, sex and the Colombian sun. Luisa and I spent the first few days in and around the city itself, where she made good on her claims that she could help me get shots I wanted both faster and better than I’d hoped. She even, somehow, got me access to the tower of the Basilica Santa Catalina de Alejandría, the city’s famous cathedral, at sunrise. And the picture I got there of the lonely, early morning square below, full of long shadows, would go o...
2023-12-14 07:24:08 +0000 UTC View PostHey there, thanks for the continued support, hope you're all well.
So, December looks like it could be a bit of a busy one. Along with the obvious holidays and how hectic that'll make the day job, I've got plans to channel whatever part of me gives Riley her wanderlust as I'm heading to Sweden for a couple of nights, for a mini vacation of my own.
What this means is that while I'd normally alternate between working on Picture Perfect and Upstart's Knight, I've gone straight into...
While I'm working on the 2nd half of Picture Perfect Ch 3, it's time to give you supporters a chance to vote on where Riley is going to be heading once she's done with Luisa in Colombia. And before she gets to Zanzibar, Tanzania, which is already locked in in my plot outline for Chapter 5. You've got a pick of 3 different cities from 3 different continents:
Lagos, Nigeria - t...
Chapter 3 - Cartagena, Colombia
Cartagena was my first trip for the Near Horizon, and it felt like finally coming up for air after two years. Having spent so long locked down, trapped in Toronto, to be back doing what I really loved was incredible, and I tried to savour every second of it from the moment the plane door opened. It helped that in the days that had followed my encounter with Cassie, Harvey had been distinctly quiet, letting me shift thoughts of romance, an...

Alex sat on the bathroom tiles crying, the voices on the other side of the door so small and remote that they’d stopped making sense. Her hands wouldn’t stop shaking. Her heart raced so hard it hurt. And every breath burned like hell, forcing her to work at every shallow, snatching gasp.
She’d had panic attacks enough times before and thought she knew what anxiety was like, but the wave that had come over her within moments of receiving the vaccine made thos...
2023-11-10 20:43:27 +0000 UTC View PostThis is a story I started working on around a year ago but never did more with, other than the unfinished start of a 2nd chapter. Now I've realised however that people might actually read the things I write, there's a bit of desire to poke at it again. I'm pretty pleased with how it looks having gone back to it, so it's been tidied up for readers to see. I'm treating it as a pilot chapter and keen to know how much appetite there is for more along these lines.
A F/F sci-fi story, it was...
Here's the promised preview of Aoife's section of Chapter 8. As ever this is still subject to changes and tweaks before the final version, but everything should be more or less the same.

“Aaah for fucks sake!”
Aoife swore as she was jolted from her half-thoughts and the autopilot she’d been working on by a small, brief flash and the faintest plume of electrical smoke. Black scorches marred the circuit board in front of her, an...
2023-11-01 21:19:32 +0000 UTC View PostHey there,
I know a load of you have followed me from Corrupting Power's patreon and fandom so are probably aware of how he does a weekly update to let his followers know what's going on and what to expect. My output obviously isn't nearly as prolific as his, but I'm quite happy to shamelessly steal the idea for a monthly update to keep you all posted.
First up is that at some point this evening once I've had a chance to do an edit pass I'll be sharing a preview of the latest chunk ...
This one's coming to you a few days later than I'd wanted. The back end of the chapter really kicked my butt to try and bring together, but I think I managed to find the line I wanted to take in the end. There's also the introduction of a character that, if you've read CorruptingPower's original story you'll be familiar with, so I've had to wait on a few little notes from him to make sure I was finding their voice and keeping everything consistent with his original take on the world.

Farah gasped as the plug slid into her ass with surprising ease. She curled her toes as two of Evie’s fingers found their way inside her helplessly wanting cunt. And she whimpered as the younger woman’s tongue traced about her piercing in deft little flicks.
They had the honeymoon suite to themselves while Nia and Ethan were away in Nottingham and it hadn’t taken long for their first evening alone together to turn heated. Much of the last half hour had been spent sprawled out on t...
2023-10-14 15:56:48 +0000 UTC View PostOk, so I wanted this one to be done like a week ago for you all but the word count ended up ballooning about 50% longer than I originally expected. This is still pending the usual continuity pass from Corrupting Power before it gets submitted to the public sites, but there's no reason why you all can't get the 'alpha' version since I'm not expecting any tweaks.
I've got a bit of time free now so the plan is to get stuck right into this month's Picture Perfect and get the 2nd half of th...
I want to share a little of my process here, since QT:UK is going up on the public sites more or less as I finish each chapter now, but I can give you a glimpse of things as I work on them.
Once I have a first draft of a chapter or section for QT:UK written it tends to get thrown over to CorruptingPower for any lore or continuity tweaks, as well as with the other writers working on Quaranteam stories in our group chat for suggestions and edits. This is before I've really been through t...
Water beaded down Nia’s body in long warm rivulets as the shower ran. She moaned, bracing herself against sleek tiles, her grip on sense or sanity feeling just as tenuous as her physical one on the wall as Evie’s tongue worked below her.
The younger woman flicked and teased, rimming Nia’s asshole with a practised fervour that should have unsettled her. Nia had seen practically every data point and response from both of their Delphi questionnaires. She knew the pair of them were as...

For each chapter of IIH - Picture Perfect, I'll be putting forward several options for locations for Riley to travel to. I have a general outline of which region of the world she will be going for several parts of the story, but the specifics will be up to you followers to decide.
For chapter 3, once she's finished in NYC, it's South America she's going to first, to either Colombia, Ecuador or...
2023-09-17 01:20:42 +0000 UTC View PostHere's the first draft of chapter 2, or at least the first half of it. I want to keep each chapter to a single location, and that means that some might run a little longer than others. In this case Riley's stay in NYC is a little long to get everything included in sort of wordcount I'd normally be aiming for, so it's getting done in two halves. Whenever I do this rest assure that each half will be at least 5k.
It's also a still somewhat of a draft, so you may see the odd tweak and corre...
2023-09-17 00:51:28 +0000 UTC View PostThe first chapter of my Patreon exclusive story, with chapters going up a minimum of 2 months in advance of public posts. Please let me know in the comments if you feel that this is about the right amount of time for them to be exclusive for it there's any thoughts there.
This story is a spin off of one by CorruptingPower, similar to Quaranteam UK. Once again done with his blessing, and my gratitude. Reading his story first is far from compulsory, but is hugely recommended becaus...
As a patreon bonus, here's a visual guide for the casting I have in my head as vague references for the various characters in the QT:UK storyline.
I'll be releasing new versions of these as the story goes on, but this one takes things up to the end of chapter 5 of the story.
