I just released a new novella  - something a bit different.   Transalaska tells the story of an aging transgendered woman who meets a hot stud in rural Alaska. I had originally intended this the novella to be more of a mainstream romance - but it got a bit out of control when Miss Maggie's secret past was revealed - and when she...   Well, I can't give all the story away, can I?  The story is more of a romance than it is erotica - but I think readers will still enjoy it. Available only on Amazon for Kindle.

Wyatt Scott and Beau Summers are back in new erotic short called Saddle Up. Can they help a storekeeper named Casey to free his lover of murder charges before he hangs?

The Sword has an interesting article on director Jerry Douglas - one of the few porn directors to actually focus on story-line and characterization above all.  He started on Broadway and moved on from there. Think we can get him to film "Cigars in the Parlor" as an homage to "Gone with the Wind"?

Every wonder what's it is like to get fucked in the back of a stagecoach?  Sam Walker finds out when he meets Wyatt Scott in 1877 Arizona.  Even though Wyatt robs the coach the coach a few minutes later, Sam still wants to see him again.  Days later, Wyatt returns - with his lover - and invites Sam to join the group of thieves that call themselves the Bull Posse. To their surprise, Sam helps them to pull off their greatest - and easiest - heist yet. Now Available for Kindle . If there is enough interest in this story, I may make this one into a series - to be determined!

Cigars in the Parlor is now complete.   The full erotic novel is available in print or for Kindle.

For those who have been downloading "Cigars in the Parlor", I thank you for your support and hope you have been enjoying the adventure.  I have finished writing and have begun editing the final chapter of "Cigars in the Parlor".   In Part 6, tentatively titled "War's End", Kit and Wallace find themselves in "Hellmira" - the infamous Union prison camp located in Elmira, New York. Here, over one in four prisoners died - though I promise that Kit and Wallace will find a happy ending on the beach.   Watch for the release of Part 6 by May 7th!  Once Part 6 is published, I plan to expand and revise the entire series into a single novel.  I will let everyone know the release date for the compendium volume when I get closer to publishing it - but it will likely be in late summer or early fall. Until then, watch for other short stories on Amazon. --- Shane
