|
|
For those who are unaware, I've been writing a few fantasy-oriented tales with a disproportionately high amount of testicular trauma. Mostly M/F, with most of the focus on a non-anthro Gryphon protagonist (although there are other bipedal characters mixed in there). There are too many parts to repost here (13 and counting), but I figured I'd drop some links.

Just started a new series called "The Missing Lynx". It's a direct follow-up to "A Gryphon's Tail" but it's also a good jump-on point for those who don't want to read the preceding dozen stories.  |

Just had a chance to read your new story, very nice. Got quite a few laughs out of it, especially once you got into Rhaelyn's interviews. You do that dry sort of humor (I think that's what you'd call it) quite well, in my opinion :p
You've got quite a few interesting personalities in this one too. Can't wait to see what you do with them  _________________ Pffft...

I appreciate you saying that, FB. I'm definitely trying a few new things in this arc, and I'll admit that the opening chapters are going to be a little dry (as far as ballbusting goes), so I'm working in the laughs where I can. I have some definite plans, though, so you can be sure that more than a few pairs will be kicked before the end. :P
Plus, you know, there's a story too. Kind of. But that often takes a back seat to the, uh, other things. ;) |

| Ha, well, maybe not JUST pairs. I suppose there's the hapless fox who's a little short of a pair. Yes, he's certainly going to have to watch his back. There might even be a few characters daring enough to go for the dreaded cunt punt, but that never seems to work out quite right in my stories. Poor guys. It's so terribly unfair. ;) |

If the first story is anything to go off, he's probably actually gonna need eyes in the back of his head. Poor little guy took one hell of a beating :p
And yes; cunt punts in your universe really never end all that well. Can't really blame the poor guys for trying though. Be interesting to see how your writing style covers that sort of subject should one happen to occur. That works that is :p _________________ Pffft...

TML Part 2 is up on FA and SF. In this part, more plot is laid out, and more teasing takes place. And hey, there's even a few more busts worked in there - although the REAL busting won't be until the later chapters. Gotta build up to it, y'know?
Oh, and it's definitely worth mentioning that this is the first chapter I've written with Poiu on editing! I'm grateful for his assistance, because he made several good suggestions on both pacing and direction.
As always, I'm happy to hear your thoughts! |

The plot thickens :p
Nice read as always man.
I must ask; the riddle that Rhaelyn tested Elin with, did you make that up? Took me a few reads before it clicked, but thought it was pretty clever once I got my head around it.
Also, having spent four months at university thinking criticality about critical thinking, reading the term 'critical thinking' again made me more worked up than It probably should have :p _________________ Pffft...

Alas, no, the Riddle actually came from an online riddle resource. I used to visit it regularly back in my RPing days, for when I needed an intellectual challenge for my players. Riddles were always a sure-fire way to enrage them.
And hey, glad you enjoyed it. Now that I've really set into getting a rough of Part 3 put together, I can safely say that it's time to start meeting the antagonists of this odd little story. Just need to decide which ones to use. There are so many half-defined characters sitting in my scrap bin. |

Ah well, no shame in that. You do still get bonus points for getting Poiu involved after all :p
Were you planning on creating new characters for your antagonists, or are they gonna be characters you've mentioned before in your stories? _________________ Pffft...

Well, I'm still debating on the specifics, but I think it's safe to say that at least one or two of them have been mentioned before. Of course, that's not saying much, since they've never really appeared in the fur. The only real antagonist that's popped up in any of the stories so far is Quetzyl, and she's off cooling her heels somewhere for the time being.
You can be sure that mysterious robed figure is up to no good, though, and there's the incorporeal spirit of the Bitch Queen floating around somewhere. I'm pretty sure that someone mentioned something about a dragon, too. Really, there are just so many possibilities that it's kind of hard to pick.  |

As of an hour ago, I've posted Part 3 of The Missing Lynx on both FA and SF. as an added bonus, I've also posted a new entry in the Tales series, entitled 'Idol Playthings'. Chronologically, the new Tales short takes place between TMLp3 and p4 - but it can be enjoyed on its own, as well.
Hopefully folks will enjoy one, the other, or both. As always, feedback is welcome. |

Finally had a chance to sit down and read your latest stories. Very nice, as always
Bloody dragons; always seeming to somehow be involved in the apocalypse :p
Keen to see more with the dragon though. The way you portrayed her makes her feel like a very epic, grand sort of character. Especially considering she's one of only ten left in the world.
---
And, poor old Kavah. I can't see there being much left of him by the end of all of this.
I think he definitely WILL be needing that hug from angel at some point :p _________________ Pffft...

Always nice to hear you liked it, FiaB. I'm already knee-deep in drafting Part 4, although I'm dabbling in another short little one-shot with Mia and Tia. I've also been talking with someone else about my, uh, pokemon story from the Challenges section. I'm almost tempted to write another one, although I haven't quite decided yet. :P
And of course, I do have plans for the dragon. I just haven't nailed down all the details yet, but I have a good idea of the role that it will be playing. The next chapter will be delving a bit into that (as well as many, many other things), but you know how it goes. It takes me three chapters just to establish anything of substance.
As for Kavah, well, I think I'll give him a break for a short while. But just a short while. He'll be back in the midst of things soon enough. ;) |

First things first. How much harassment do you require before you decide to write another Pokémon short? I quite enjoyed the one you wrote in the challenge section, so I wouldn't mind seeing more from you :p
I hope you're also planning to reveal what the hooded guys' deal is soon. I wanna know what his role in all this is. And why Kavah's out getting his nut bashed about doing his dirty work. _________________ Pffft...

Heh, well, not much harassment, really. I actually JUST cleaned up and reposted 'Double Teamed' on SF and FA. I fixed up a few typos and grammatical errors, changed some of the wording, and added a few little bits (nothing major).
Gotten a bit of positive buzz on it already, so I've been dabbling on a half-finished story that's been sitting in my Scraps folder for a few months now. It's a little on the short side, but it has some promise. Just need to find some time to, you know, finish writing it. :P
Ha, and yes, there'll be a little bit about the Mysterious Hooded Figure in TMLp4. He'll still be very mysterious, but at least you'll get to know a LITTLE bit more about him!
As it stands now, I'm nearing completion on the rough draft. The current working title of the new chapter is 'Bring on the Bad Guys', so the focus will be on the villains this time around. Props to Poui for (inadvertently) giving me the chapter title.  |

Just finished my final edit on Part 4 of 'The Missing Lynx', and posted it up on FA and SF. More story than ballbusting this time (sorry!), but its all leading somewhere. Honest.
There's still a bit of busting in there, though, and a good amount of general naughtiness. I interspersed it with far more serious segments of melodrama, just to keep the awkward pacing at a maximum. :P

Finally read your story.
You definitely brought on the bad guys. But I must say, mabye too many. Not trying to discourage you, just makes it feel a little unfocused having so many - to me, at least. Certainty will be interesting to see how you juggle them all :p
Now, the good stuff!
I'm liking the lycans, 'specially Venn. Just the right amount of mean/crazy. Hope you plan on letting her put her teeth to work at some point X3
Also, the dark wizard. Damn you and your lack of details! Xp
Ah well. You did say just a little bit. Next time *crosses fingers* :p _________________ Pffft...

Oh, no, I totally hear where you're coming from. Honestly, the autentic version of the chapter actually had even more character introductions - but I ended up forcing myself to trim things down. I may still have run with a few too many villains, but that's nothing that can't be fixed further down the line.
It hurt a little, though, because there were a few cut segments and character intros that I really enjoyed writing - chief amongst them a bit which would have finally introduced 'Empress' the so-called Demon Queen of the Wastes. Ah well, she'll just have to wait for another story somewhere down the line.
As an aside, its worth mentioning that we'll be seeing more of the lycans very soon. After writing five chapters worth of dialogue and set-up, I'm looking forward to finally working in a bit of actual peril. ;) |

So it's been a while (almost two months!) since I finished writing anything, but I'm easing myself back into it. TMLp5 is still in the works, but I just wrapped up a new entry in the 'Tales from the Cat House' series.
This one is a follow-up to 'Cats & Dogs', featuring Tanner Ta'nari - the masochistic tiger who was last mentioned in TMLp1. This new story is the sixth entry in my 'Tales from' series, and is entitled 'How You Play the Game'.
As an added bonus, I've also recently uploaded a scene I deleted from TMLp4 (Bring on the Bad Guys). I might still recycle parts of the scene for use in a later chapter or story, but for now I figured it couldn't hurt to post it.
The story is up on FA and SF, but the deleted scene is only on SF. Links are above, in the first post of this thread.

Finally finished editing TMLp5 to my liking. It\'s now up at both FurAffinity and SoFurry. I\'ve got a couple of other short stories I\'ll be turning my attention toward now, but TMLp6 should hopefully be along before too long.
As always, feedback is welcome. |

For those who haven't jumped ship over to the SoFurry ballbusting forum, just a quick note. I've finally finished "The Missing Lynx, Part VI" and I've got it posted up at SoFurry! I'll be posting it on FurAffinity soon as well, but for now FA seems to be broken.
