Poll: Future Short Novel Ideas
Added 2021-02-20 20:42:48 +0000 UTCHey, everyone. So work continues on Shadow of the Seraph # 2 - after some suggestions and reflection, I believe it will be called Harbinger rather than Eclipse, though this isn't super important. I still have about 20% left to draft but I'm plugging away at it. More updates on that soon!
In other news, I have mentioned a few times that I want to try working in some shorter novella projects in between the bigger books (SoS, White Throne) to have a more consistent release schedule. Wrath #2 filled that gap in January, and I'll be doing more stuff like that this year if things go as planned.
I am still trying to nail down exactly what those projects will be. I was very happy with everyone's input on the "Highwind Highschool" alternate universe thing so I figured I would float some other ideas for you!
Vote for whichever one sounds the most interesting to you, and please leave a comment if you have specific ideas you'd like to see!
The Lost Fleet (Sci-Fi)
The premise here is that there is a secret Dominion fleet somewhere in the Far Rim that was sent by Emperor Falric to essentially watch and wait for an appropriate moment to strike. The ships are kind of like a "Starfleet Academy" vibe with lots of (smoking hot) cadets and officers training and such.
The big erotica hook here is that young Seraphim soldiers have a "pregnancy quota" to try and breed as many psychics as possible. They get knocked up, then have the fetus surgically removed and put in a kind of storage so the girl can keep fighting/training.
Our main character is a young cadet who finds out that he has a lot of qualities the hot advanced cadets/officers want, so he finds himself suddenly getting lots of attention and action.
A very silly premise but I think it could be hot and add some more worldbuilding!
Tales from Highwind Academy (Fantasy)
These stories would focus on the rebuilding Highwind Academy after the events of The Amazon's Vengeance. Essentially, it starts training young sorcerers now that the Inquisitrix isn't on the loose. imagine the wild action they could get into!
There are a lot of ways to potentially go with a traditional "school erotica" thing, but one idea was to make the main character Julian and Serrane's son! Regardless, it's an opportunity for more world building, cameos from other characters, and scandalous school sex along the lines of The Headmistress's Punishment.
Darker Bondage/AU Stories
This category is more of a catch-all for folks who like Wrath of the Spider Queen and would prefer it if I wrote darker domination stuff, kind of like my old Elf Slave series. I have a lot of potential ideas for this so I didn't necessarily want to float a specific one, just see if people find this line the most interesting.

I still want a new Slave to the Empire book!

2021-02-25 00:46:43 +0000 UTCI hope that means a possibility of seeing both options. Even though I favor the Highwind Academy idea, I really like the Lost Fleet idea too.

2021-02-21 17:56:22 +0000 UTCToo early to tell. Dark themed stuff seems only slightly ahead right now. Makes me wonder if the votes might come out even.

2021-02-21 08:54:07 +0000 UTC...I feel bad that I keep putting off catching up on all your work. I would like to see if later Seraph stuff lived up to your initial suggestion that the non-human Empire would be rounded out eventually, or how those silly kids I liked saved humanity in the Amazon's series, or even how he and his woman made out in the end. That said, it sounds like a decent chunk of your paying patrons who aren't me are more into the darker stuff you do that I could honestly do without, and they are no less paying patrons than I.
