A Handy Fantasy #MFRWAuthor #MFRWSteam

Naughty Netherworld Press is excited to announce that Lil DeVille's hot novelette, The Beasts of Hank's Wood, was selected for inclusion in the forthcoming Beastly Tales anthology. The ebook is now available.

Genre: Paranormal, Supernatural, Shifters

Length: Novelette (14,000 words)

Heat Level: 5 Flames (nuclear blast)

Blurb for the Anthology

Monsters deserve love too…

From werewolves, vampires, and even Bigfoot, these beasts manage to find love. Whether they are able to sink their claws into that love and keep it is another story. When it comes down to it, don’t judge a book by its cover. This anthology brings a mixture of what ifs and happily ever afters.

Featuring stories from T.C. Mill, A.K. Moss, Toni Mobley, Barend Nieuwstraten III, Ashley L. Hunt, Charles Kyffhausen, Lil Deville, Kelly Piner, Jess Monica, and Karen Bayly.

Graphic sexual content is included within this anthology.

Blurb for The Beasts of Hank's Wood

Joe Schola III is the eighteen-year-old son of Joseph Schola Junior, a fire-and-brimstone preaching Fundamentalist televangelist. While young Joe is far less homophobic than his father, he is struggling to come to terms with his own sexual orientation. Will Joe dare accept the invitation to become part of a clan of shapeshifters, and will he accept the love being offered to him by the handsome fox shifter Lovell Azarola?

Snippet

Read the previous snippet here:

While Lovell massaged my hands and forearms, I felt like I'd slipped into another world. The cab of the truck faded, and he and I were alone, surrounded by mist. I felt his lips brushing mine as he leaned in. I parted my lips and our tongues danced slowly around each other. My cock was throbbing, and I wanted him to take me, to make me his, to do whatever he would.

I returned to reality when Lovell’s fingertips caressed my cheek.

“We’re here,” he said.

I was in a daze as Lovell helped me out of the truck. The exuberant Forest broke the spell, pulling me into a spine-cracking bear hug.

“It was so good to meet both of you, Man,” he said.

(Not the steamiest of steamy snippets, but you get the idea.)

I need to update the official Books page.

It's Official, I'm Certifiable

I am participating in the 30,000-Word Jersey Romance Writer's Month Challenge. Go me! Go straight to the looney bin!

Actually, I'm already working on yet another piece for potential inclusion in a Dragon Soul Press anthology. I have a 20,000-word goal on this one. Plus, I'm already doing the final edits on The Quest for the Wizard's Key. So, my participation isn't quite as daft as it might otherwise seem.

Besides, how can I lose when I have Jerry Rhino in my corner?

On the surface, it probably doesn't make much sense for me to be a member of the New Jersey Romance Writer's Association. I live in Colorado and I don't really consider myself a romance writer. I'm alternately a weird fiction writer whose stories sometimes include romantic subplots and an author of cheeky erotica sometimes set in otherworldly locations. As a poet, I mostly pen verses about how much love stinks, not how lovely it is.

However, the NJRWA folks are a nice bunch, and, you know, how can you say no to Jerry Rhino?

By the way, if you're interested in finding out more about forthcoming Dragon Soul Press anthology calls, here's the link. Don't say I never gave you anything.

Genre: Sci-Fi Fantasy

Length: 60,000 Words

Heat Level: 1 Flame (light romance)

Are you tired of the same old formulaic romance dance?

Are you sick of slap-dash slashers and predictable plot rehashers?

Are you at the end of your rope with sparkly vampires and sexy werewolves?

Have you had it up to here with silly space operas where the otherworldly setting is just a veneer for the randy crew to make out with aliens?

Is it time to drop the buddy cops and stop watching the detectives?

My friend, let the New Weird Tales refresh you!

You’ve tried the rest, now it’s time for the best. Welcome to an adventure like no other!

“Your Majesty, we come in peace,” the Yithian explained telepathically. “We would be indebted to you if we might implore your aid in our quest.”

“Yes, Yithian, I see no reason why not,” Rokon agreed. “I invite you to dine with me. Tell me, what sort of food would you desire?”

“I obtain energy from minerals and plant matter. My friend Ketil will eat or not as it suits him. My companions Robin Roberts and Little John Tamboli relish decaying meat, particularly human flesh, although we acknowledge that you may not have such readily available.”

Watchin' the Detectives #SnipSun

I had a story I’m especially proud of published in the 2022 Deathlehem anthology. I love this one, and if you’re a big weirdo who thinks spending an evening with some freaky chums who aren’t what they appear to be is your idea of a good time, Silent Scream is the story for you.

Heat Level: There's no sex, but someone naughty ends up in plenty of hot water.

Twas the fright before Christmas,

nightmares fill my head,

the creatures, they're a-prowling

'til everyone is dead…

Welcome back to Deathlehem, where…

…a stranger grants a grieving father's Christmas wish…

…charitable acts are purely self-serving…

…a man plans his last Christmas in a post-apocalyptic world…

Story Blurb

Gorgeous Gudrun Lemaire is just the woman Aodh Warzawski has been looking for to help him complete his collection of Nine Ladies Dancing. The love-starved middle-aged goth chick is the perfect victim--or is she?

Snippet

You can read the previous snippet here:

"This gaff is bloody creepy enough," Detective Sergeant Isidoros Cam muttered as he strode through the front door of Warszawski Taxidermy. With his battered fedora and rumpled trenchcoat, the basset-faced DS looked like a cross between Columbo and Dick Tracy.

"Looks like the place has been abandoned for decades," twenty-four-year-old Detective Constable Breandán Gracia Zelenka noted.

"Not quite, Fresh Meat," Auer countered with a knowing grin. "The truck is a newer model, not more than five years old. I'll bet you five quid that there's current mail, though the occupant may not have opened it for a spell."

Lieutenant Theresa Landvik, a seasoned American ex-pat who had been with the Crouch End division of Scotland Yard for 34 years, was a small, wiry woman in her early sixties who looked like she might blow away in a strong wind, but her co-workers knew that she was far tougher than she appeared. She turned her piercing violet-blue gaze on her subordinates.

Best Summer Ever #RainbowSnippets

My story, Prodigal Moon, was selected to appear in the Wayward and Upward anthology from Off Topic Press, a small Canadian publisher. Details follow below.

Genre: Paranormal, Supernatural, Vampires

Length: Short Story

Heat Level: 1 Flame (suggestions of romance)

Blurb

A young man makes a new friend who is much older than she appears to be.

Snippet

You can read the previous snippet here.

It was the best summer that Valentins ever had. He and Deborah painted figurines and drafted plans for a complete haunted village. They played board games and watched dumb late-night movies. They went to the graveyard and played tag among the tombstones. One night they sat on the edge of Choral Beck, the stream that ran through the Cheating Growth, until the sky turned pink around the edges and Deborah said that she needed to hurry home.

"If I'm out after sunrise, I'm toast," she exclaimed dramatically.

Blurb for The Beasts of Hank's Wood

Snippet

Read the previous snippet here:

Dad was none other than Joe Schola Junior, an ultra-conservative religious icon. Every Sunday morning, thousands of viewers tuned in to the Joe Schola Show on television or the Joe Schola Hour on Christian radio stations to hear Fox News-approved rhetoric about homosexuality ushering in the Apocalypse and free-thinking females destroying the family. The same terrible talking points were used by televangelists long before I was born. That such hateful rhetoric always has an audience dismayed me. My father and I disagreed on nearly everything, but I never spoke out except to occasionally tell him to dial back the fire and brimstone. I said people would either be turned off by always being told they're going to hell or scared to hear what he had to say.

I couldn't bring myself to tell my father that the son he pinned all his hopes on was gay. In spite of everything, I loved my dad. Also, I thought praying hard enough would wash away my attraction to other men and make me interested in women instead.

Snippet

The Yithian was accompanied by a diaphanous human male in early adulthood with long, light blond hair and a pallor striking even for a ghost. Beside this phantom strode two monstrous humanoids with rubbery gray-green skin and vaguely canine features. One was a small, wiry fellow with large, yellow-gray eyes. The other was a burly chap who radiated a quiet intensity.

The four odd fellows bowed before the serpent king, who descended from his throne and bowed to them. He was a majestic sight, standing just over three meters in height. The diamond-shaped pupils of his golden eyes dilated and contracted, and his forked tongue flicked the air as he surveyed his visitors. He opened his mouth, revealing great curved fangs.

“Blimey, I’d not like to be the recipient of his wrath,” the portly ghoul whispered to his companion. “Skewer a bloke like a kabob on them choppers, he could.”

The sun was rising on Christmas morning as a team of plain-clothes detectives approached a dilapidated farmhouse located on the outskirts of London. A well-maintained truck sat off to the side. There was a light layer of snow on the ground, and there were footprints belonging to two women, two men, and one large dog.

"This is certainly peculiar," thirty-year-old Detective Constable Tatsuya Auer noted. "The footprints indicate that one bloke and two ladies went in. A different bloke and the same two ladies came out with a big dog. We've no evidence that any other vehicle has been here besides that truck. The footprints leading away from the property disappear beyond the truck. Old Kris Kringle left us a spiffing little Christmas puzzle, innit?"
