The Doll Factory

This one is longer than my usual fare, and I have a credited partner in its writing, so there is a story behind it.  People may know that I am publishing themed anthologies of my stories on Amazon (links below) and Erin suggested a science fiction book.  I had only 3 stories in that gen...

Inspired by Miles No. 1

Another collection of my short takes on captioned images that I love.  This set is from caps by Miles starting with one of the first I wrote - "What did the Twins say?" were I think that the image and few words from Miles invited a bigger story.  There is another set from the work of Mi...

Vengeance

Another idea from Erin, but this time I went way off the original idea.  Sometimes stories just go where they go.

The Nature of Crime

Another story from a seed by Erin recorded at the foot of this story.  She has some great ideas and I am always open to them ... from others too!

The Long Game

I am also compiling a book themed on sports/pastimes.  I think that I am almost finished that with only one soccer story to go.  This one is about golf.

A Tear for Bunny

Another idea from Erin - her title a play on the word tear and I envisaged a gang based drama with an ending that is not usual for me but clearly demanded by the name of the story.

The Paramedic

As patrons may know, my second book is out on Amazon and the third should be out before the end of the month ... and we have more lined up.  On theme that we have been discussing is based on helpers.  I have a few stories where a character has such a role and Erin suggested a paramedic ...

My Books on Amazon

People may know that I am publishing my stories as collections on Amazon.

Her on Patreon you can view the material as I write it, and maybe even have a hand in the finished product, but on Amazon these are complete books that have been edited and include comments in a preface and foreword. ...

Christian Feminization Collection Vol. 2

Is it a sin to get such a thrill out of lampooning religion?  I have to mention Lacey, a devout Christian, whose scripture interpretation is behind "In Praise of Rebirth"; and also Stephie whose irrepressible sissiness is behind "New Believer" 

Sunset Beach

Erin is always plaguing me with ideas and this was another pearl seed.  The added poignancy is that I have been in this place, but the man never came along (sniff)

Peer Pressure

This one came from an idea in a Fictionmania Message Board exchange about peer pressure as an agent for gender change.  As people will realize I am always looking for new agents, so after initially dismissing this is the exchange I started this story, and I have to say that the main characte...

The Abbot

This is one of my historical stories and is one that has always interested me ever since I read about the Abbe de Choisy and the Chevalier d'Eon at about the same time (a book by Havelock Ellis I think).  I have no doubt that these memoirs are the work of a transwoman and the people referred...

Hiding from Guilt

One of the books I am working on  is themed "Undercover or in Hiding" and I was missing one story.  Erin suggested that somebody hiding from their own guilt, perhaps by escaping into their preferred gender.  Is that what is going on here?

Casting

As Patrons may know, I am putting together some books to be published on Amazon, and one in the series themed broadly on the arts, called for a story about Hollywood.  Erin threw out an idea and this story worked its way out.  Tell me what you think.  Patrons will get to read all m...

Inspired by Unidentified Capsters Vol. 4

Yes, another collection of my captioned things, but as I explained to a reviewer on Fictionmania today "these little riffs on captions by others are just exercises in creativity - if it stimulates a thought then I write it down and publish it ...".  I try to identify the author but with some...

Catch and Release

Erin is helping me with my anthologies and is supposed to be helping with ideas on a specific theme, but then she comes up with ideas like this, about an attempted suicide, knowing full well that I will just have to write the story.

Darts of Cupid

I am writing a series of books - collections of my short stories to be published on Amazon each with around 15-20 stories on a similar theme.  One volume is based on sports and recreation and I was missing a few stories.  I was looking for a sport where both men and women compete on an ...

No More Worlds to Conquer

That is why Alexander the Great burst into tears ... or perhaps he was just girly all along?  This is another of my takes on history, where I generally expand on known crossdressers or likely transwomen, but in this case seek to explain the early demise of the greatest military leader ever k...

Queen of Hearts

This is another story for my Amazon book "Misfortune and Romance in the Old West" which will be published next month for those who prefer book reading my stories.  Here, in a mining town full of men, the fate of a new arrival turns on the cards.

Just an addendum, but I seemed to have l...

Fishier

For those who don't know: “Drag queens are men, and when one of their number becomes too female they call her fishy".

Inspired by Femme Pastiche

These captions are much longer and more detailed that the ones I usually work with, or even bother to read, but images sometimes draw me in, and this cap writer always has something quite novel.  Here are the first 5 stories with the captioned images that inspired them by Femme Pastiche.

Husbandry

Perhaps it can be said that some of my pieces are educational.  This is not just a slice of TG history but also a quick lesson in cattle breeding.  Comments please!

Timesharing

Erin and I are putting together some collections for publication following my first book hitting the shelves, and the theme of one collection is love in isolated places.  I needed another story and Erin came up with a thin thread to hang something on.

Two Years on Patreon

Two Years on Patreon

On 30 April 2019 I opened my Patreon page with eight of my stories. Since then I have used this subsite to post almost every week, at least three new stories each time. I am not sure of the total number and Patreon does not tell me how to find out! But I am guessing tha...

Skater Girl

I corresponded with db543 who sent me something of value - so he can be regarded as a commissioner worthy of a dedicated story (please consider escalating to that tier).  It was not the skateboarding that was his idea, but the reluctance that he wanted to see.  So it had to be told from...

License to Kiss

My muse came up with the name, which is a bit corny, but inspiring.  I was all I needed.  He had to be British, because (as you will find out) "what a gentleman [spy] wears under his bespoke suit should be his own business"

The Tutor

Another book that I am working on with Doppler Press will be a collection of old and new stories based on historical fact.  I have fun writing these stories.  I try to ensure that I involve factual characters wherever possible and most times the stories are about a historical TG or CD f...

Solicitation

Here is another story that came out of a chat with Erin of Doppler Press and Big Closet fame.  She just mentioned a cop picks up a guy comin home from a Halloween party and charges him with solicitation.  Please not that I see a sequel in the future (?)

Oddity

I am working on publishing a series of collections of my short stories on Amazon through Doppler Press.  I have some prior anthologies but for these collections are a mixture of old stories and new, and are working with a different theme for each book.  My publisher Erin, is a mine of i...

Inspired by Tiffany etc. No. 14

Tiffany is incredible!  She is not producing at the moment, and concentrating on real life, but I love her short, pithy captioned images when looking for ideas.  She paints a picture but leaves me with plenty of scope for imagination in creating a story.  This is the fourteenth vol...
