What Erotica By Request is and why you should care

Hello faithful readers. Alternately, hello dirty perverts. Or hello, random person who found this site.

Whatever the case, I thought I would write a post about the site, about what you can do to keep it going, and about my process.

I write primarily by request. Someone comes to me with an idea, I think about it, and then I write a story for them. It's a completely free service, and something I do to keep myself writing, and to help myself better understand certain kinks. The things in this story aren't necessarily what turns me on, but I hope that they turn you, the reader, on.

Since this is a free service, I feel the right to ask for a few things, just to show that you support my work. First and foremost among them is feedback. If you like a story, please leave me a comment saying so. Tell me what you liked. Tell me how I can improve.

Secondly, please make requests. This also tells me that people are reading. More, it tells me that people want me to continue.

Both of these cost you nothing, but mean a lot to me.

Of course, if you want to do something that DOES cost you, you are welcome to do that too. Check out my books and wishlist page. Send me a present. Or buy yourself a book. Both are good. If  you buy a book, please review it.

The more interest people show, the more likely I am to write. The power is in your hands. (and that's the way I like it)

An Erotic Novel? How novel!

Hello!

Okay, so as you know, I've released several collections. You can still get the original collection, or Power Exchange, which has a story never published on this site. You can still get Boots and Bondage, with some of the best stories inside. And of course, you can still get Boot's Fairy Tales, with all its special extras.

But I've never released an actual novel before.

Thankfully, I was able to get the wonderful Dreadnaught Photography to do another cover for me, and I took my promise in no-more-moriarty-here seriously. I waited until I had a good cover, until the book was well finished.

And now it is!

Please, please, please, go buy a copy! Buy one for your friends. But dozens for enemies, and send it to their place of work until they sue you for harassment*

**the lawyers at EbR HQ insist that you NOT harass people, or at least that we not encourage you to.**

Wanna see the cover of the new book?

Book 4, and a teaser

Hello hello!

The fourth collection of Erotica By Request, Boot's Fairy Tales, is now available for purchase!

Please buy some copies for yourself, your friends, people you meet on the street, or just as starter fuel for a fire.

You can find the whole thing here: Book 4.

Like the cover?

It's another Dread Naught Photography creation.

But that's not all! This picture also represents a special story that appears ONLY in this volume. Just one more reason to buy it.

Now, I promised I was going to tease you....

Remember Moriarty? Well, her story, both the parts that are on the site and a LOT that isn't, is the next project to come out of our publication... group. In fact, all we're waiting for is another spectacular picture from Dread Naught Photography.

In the meantime, give me some requests! Stories are free, and I am happy to write them. I love getting tips, but they're not required. All I really need from you is inspiration and requests.

So please, send them to me at bootlickersub @ yahoo . com or just post them here, and I'll see what I can do for you!

Hiatus

Hey, did you notice that I haven't written anything in a while?


Yeah.

There are reasons. For one thing, the other half of my brain (the one who controls the body) is working on a non-kink novel about a witch with all her magic bound up in tattoos who finds herself stuck in a supernatural Hunger Games style situation. That's taking a lot of our creative energy, and since he lets me take most of it, I figure it's only fair to give him a chance every once in a while.

For another reason, I'm just not feeling it lately. What is there to say that I haven't already said? I've written nearly 300 stories, fantasies for more than 100 people. And it's awesome. But I'm worried that if I keep writing, I'll just be repeating myself.

Which brings me to you. Yes, you. If you like the things on this site, then you can help make me write.

Tell me something I haven't written about. Whether it's your fantasy, a random challenge, or just an idea that strikes your fancy, make a request. You can do it anywhere; comment on the story. send me an e-mail or a fetlife mail.

And, as always, feel free to send me vast amounts of money and prizes. No one has done that so far, (there WAS a gift, which was awesome), but you could be the first!

In the meantime.... I'll be back when I'm back.

Hopefully, just a bad day

I haven't been writing much. I think it's a slump that has to do with Groundhog Day.

Winter is going on too long. Winter has more than settled in. It has staked claim, planted crops, adopted children, incorporated, and has gotten tax laws changed. It's so cold here that the groundhog's shadow froze, fell over, and killed the groundhog, but no one noticed because the light that was supposed to reach their eyes froze before it got there.

Anyway.

I'm not writing much of anything. And I haven't been writing for the blog. Check out past the cut, and I'll tell you why.

Thanksgiving Thank You

I strive for the approval of others. That's pretty obvious, right? Well, whenever I feel like I didn't do someone justice, I try again. There are a few of you out there who are owed additional stories, and you'll get them. But today, thinking back to the holiday that passed, I was inspired to write the following story.

Which reminds me: I'm thankful for you, all of you. I'm thankful that you come here and read these. I'm thankful that you make requests. I'm thankful that you leave comments, that you give love and support. And I'm thankful that you buy my books (and if you haven't yet, please do?). Thank you all for your involvement in this blog.

And, of course:
For Fay, after a wonderful thanksgiving:

What it means to me...

So you may have noticed, the first year of Erotica By Request has resulted in 20,000 hits, several published collections, and more than 70 different people getting requests written for them.

One story has crossed the 1000 views mark by itself. Which inspired me to put together a collection of the top 10 stories on the blog, as of the anniversary. So I did. In a nice collection you can download on your kindle.

My own fantasy world

I've been gone for a while, working on other things. I hope I can get back into the habit. I need more requests! Please, drop them in the comments, find me on fetlife, send me an e-mail.


Today, when I came back to the office, there was something waiting for me. It was a present; I'll let you guess who sent it. (Please, guess. I'll give a prize to whoever gets it right first)

Maybe it would be best just to tell you about it, to describe exactly what happened.

Deeper and Deeper

And no, I'm not sorry.

So today, I was going on a rant in my head about the things that annoy me (this one was inspired by otherwise attractive people wearing sweats and moccasins), and I got to thinking about what rules I would have if I ruled the world.

Which led me to realize that there is a world that I rule, a place where I can present these policies as if they would actually be followed. So I started writing, and kind of enjoy what came out of it. I hope you like it too.

Regular updates will recommence.... whenever I damned well feel like it. ;) In other news, The Interrogation is closing in on 1000 views, and the blog itself is closing in on 19,000. Thank you all!

Policy Changes

Survey for you wonderful people

I'm a bit tired today; the comings, goings, and doings of my alter ego, the one that has a real job that pays bills and all that boring stuff, has really worn me out and taken away that creative spark. Well, some of it.

What it left me to do, along with the rest of the crew here at EbR HQ, is put together our 'season lineup' for upcoming stories. We aren't producing anything today, but we did some brain storming and came up with a few things to bring forth to you, the reader. Basically, we want to know what YOU want to see. So if you would be so kind as to take a few minutes to read this, and make your opinions known in the comments, we'd all appreciate it.

Hiatus

There will be a (hopefully brief) hiatus as the EbR crew goes on a corporate retreat. Those who survive will return ready to go back to work.

In the meantime, please feel free to make new requests. Either post them here or send them in to bootlickersub@yahoo.com

Thank you for your patience.

Confessions of a Bootlicker: Never Have I Ever

The folks here at the home office are insisting that I get back to work. They won't let me keep wallowing in panic and stress. And, though I slew many an interloper, their sheer numbers did eventually overcome me. I went down fighting, but I did go down. And then I went down again. Actually, I ended spending quite a lot of time on my knees...

Is it weird that I keep writing as if there were other people here?

anyway...

Confessions of a Bootlicker: College Party

Give Boot a kick in the ass... please?

It seems like we've been very quiet here at EbR HQ. There hasn't been much coming out (other than Janice, and congrats to her!), and there isn't much talk of future stories. But there IS some good news.

Boot is going to have a story published in an anthology of 2013's best gay erotica. So that's great. More details on that as it develops.

We haven't been getting much from Boot lately. Seems like he's kind of depressed, feeling somewhat overwhelmed and under appreciated. We threw him a party, even found an entire sorority that needed their boots licked clean, but that didn't seem to help. He just doesn't seem to be all there right now.

Word at EbR Headquarters

Here at HQ, there's been a lot of tension in the air. Rumors of layoffs have abounded, as have rumors of binding, horsewhipping, castration, gang bang initiations, and even mandatory overtime. Thankfully, the layoff rumor has been laid to rest. We all get to keep our jobs. That, like the Shibari relaxation seminar, was a load off.
