Waltzing Melissa honours me by setting her latest effort in my own little corner of the Swarmiverse. Her new story is called The Priests' wedding, and picks up the future history of the cosca somewhat after the events described in Changing Priorities.
As you might surmise from the title, it describes the toils and tribulations of the priests sent to minister to the cosca, as they try to implement the Pope's directives concerning marriage and the priesthood. Melissa has assembled a wonderful, sexy tale full of humor, angst, love and purpose. Please enjoy it as much as I did!

New Chapter
Well, as promised, Schroedinger's Cat, Chapter 7 is finished and posted, and will be available with the next ASSTR update. No real suspense, I think, but some interesting personal stuff going on, and a little local color. Getting real close to the party now.
Homecoming Chapter 2 is underway again, and I hope to finish it soon.
I may or may not get back to writing in the Swarm universe soon, but another author has indicated some interest in writing a new tale involving the cosca of Family Values and Changing Priorities fame. I've seen some of the preliminary work, and what I've seen looks pretty good.
I'm not sure how much longer I'll continue writing for the Web. Writing, for me, is a way to fill the time between stories by my favorite authors. When they go on hiatus, that's when I write. When I do write, there are usually several stories vying for my time. One thing is for sure: Once Schroedinger and Homecoming are complete, I'm only going to post new stories that I've completely finished. Chapter-wise posting aggravates readers (even when they want it!), and causes me too many headaches in maintaining story flow and logical consistency.
That's all I have for right now. Have a great day.

Status
Currently working on Chapter 7 of Schroedinger's Cat. If all goes well, I may have it posted by the first of November. If not... well.... Anyway, next up after that is Chapter 2 of Homecoming?, and it's got a lot further to go before it's ready for prime time - less than a thousand words written, so far.
No, there won't be any more Swarm stories from me for awhile, at least not until I've caught up a little more on my backlog. There are a bunch of other Swarm authors, though, and judging by the discussions going on, a lot of exciting new stories coming down the pike! Be sure to check frequently on the Thinking Horndog's New Swarm Stories page.. or, you could do like I do, sometimes, and haunt SOL...

Changing Priorities
I've posted a new Swarm story. It's called Changing Priorities, and it develops on the concept of "the Godfather in Outer Space," that was exposed in Family Values. It's on both ASSTR and SOL.
I'm going to take a vacation from the Swarm for awhile. My other writing projects have fallen 'way behind, and I need to move them along a little faster, so no more new Swarm stories from me for awhile. There are lots of great writers doing stories for the Swarm universe, though, so if you haven't checked them out, this would be a great time to do so!

Another stories site
Yielding to pressure from my new friend, deGaffer, I have established an author account at Storiesonline.net (SOL), and today I posted Family Values to the Swarm Cycle universe there. In addition, any future Swarm stories that I may write will be posted there as well.
Of course, any stories I write, including any in the Swarm universe, will continue to be posted on my main stories site at ASSTR. SOL is just another venue. It may also have a positive side for a couple of readers who have mentioned that my main site is hard on their eyes. Although SOL allows some minor customization, I have no intention to try for anything striking at the moment. I will also continue to convert stories, as time permits, to PDF format for both FTP and web download.

The Panty Raid
I just finished a new short story, only 3 chapters and just short of 15K words. I posted it on ASSTR today, and I'll probably post it on Literotica (if it'll allow it) tomorrow.
It's called The Panty Raid, and its been percolating in my head for quite awhile. The idea to write this story has been bothering me for about a year now. I didn't really want to do it, but it wouldn't let me go, so here it is. It's a pretty dark tale, and parts of it kind of make me mad.
The event that inspired the story is over 30 years old, and was actually not very exciting. I had heard or read somewhere, that some guys at my old alma mater had pulled off a panty raid, and mentioned it in passing to a female friend. I recall being amused about it. She quickly disabused me of the notion that it was just good clean fun. With prejudice. Seems some friends of hers were victims of some pretty rough treatment during a college panty raid, and that the rumor mill spoke of multiple sexual assaults, as well.

Family Values
Some of you may remember that I've been working on a short story for the Swarm Cycle, which is a set of stories in a collaborative universe created by the Thinking Horndog. Well, I finally finished it, and it's called Family Values. I posted it last night on ASSTR, and I may or may not post it on EWP or Literotica.
It's shorter than I thought it would be, only three chapters (about 12K-13K words), and the character development was somewhat of a surprise to me. Let me know if you like it.
