Hey everybody,

Eventually I will figure out how often I should release one of these. It will probably end up being once a month, but who knows.

Today I am coming to you with some exciting news - I finally got my Patreon finalized. I guess the secret to not getting flagged by Patreon is to avoid using words like “erotic” in any place that a scan-and-block system is going to flag me for it. Go figure. After a bit of fiddling around, I managed to get it in working order. Hooray me.

What this means for everyone else (who is not me) is that the Monster of the Month (aka Monster Fucker serial) will be available at the beginning of April. You’ll see me talking about it more on Bluesky, but let’s talk about it here too!

(So what happened to that KOH thing, you ask? That’s the actual book I am working on slowly but surely. I decided to allow that to take a back seat for now.)

My main project going forward will be a serialized story which I plan to release on Patreon a piece at a time:

My story follows the adventures of Miss Melody McNamara, a discarded LoveDoll who was taken in by butchy almost-1000 year-old vampire called the Master. The Master fixes up and reprograms the doll, giving her a new name and purpose. Melody is put in charge of running the Master’s household, which includes overseeing the Master’s menagerie of fantastical creatures. Melody is sweet and attentive and above all else, very eager to please. She also has an Amelia Bedelia quality to her - she’s autistic coded, drawing from my own experiences as a queer autistic person who enjoys sex.

The chapters will be in 3rd person, but coming from Melody’s perspective, as if she is retelling her experiences after they happen.

Fun fact: This serial is both sci-fi AND fantasy. It takes place in the far future and will feature a lot of fun tech in addition to the high fantasy monsters. Why do the monsters exist? I don’t know yet honestly and maybe we’ll never know because what matters is that they’re here to torment Melody. (And vice versa).

The story is going to both explicitly and implicitly queer in all sorts of ways. It’s also going to be heavily erotic. While there will definitely be plot moving the story forward, the story is very focused on Melody’s sexual escapades.

It’s smut, y’all. ❤️

Melody is going to have encounters with a different monsters in each chapter (I legally have to write it like this so Patreon doesn't throw me into the sun - I’m only mostly joking). Over time I will be adding more characters, going into more about the backgrounds of the monsters and the Master, etc.

Ultimately, I just want to work on something fun that will allow my readers to come along for the ride. Using Patreon as my platform is going to let me involve the readers will all of the fun choices - I’ll have voting on which monster to feature next, which kinks to toss in there, etc.

For anyone who isn’t into having that sort of control, the lowest level of support will be just for getting access to the main story each month as well as any other written tidbits I might feel like putting up.

On the other end, if there’s a particular monster / kink / both that you’d really like to see, the highest tier will let you commission a chapter that will be just for you!

Eventually, I also really hope to get to the point where I can have each story given the audio-book treatment that higher tier supporters will also have automatic access to.

Being able to commission art of characters or scenes is also a high priority for me, so I need to figure out how many supporters I’ll need to reach before that becomes possible. It’s on my big “To Do” list though.

Chapters will be between ten and twenty pages - you know, a regular sized chapter. This is less about supporting a specific end product and is more about supporting me as a creator. Like we all know money isn’t everything, but we’ve still all got bills to pay. I’ve always loved the idea of old pulpy sci-fi porn stories in men’s magazines, so I am doing that but with a queer twist.

So yeah, that’s the plan! The first chapter is going to be up on April 1st - which also happens to be my 40th birthday!

You can find Miss Melody McNamara’s Marvelous Menagerie on Patreon.

Until next time,
