Okay, well, I was planning to build up some hype, but

🦇🎃HAPPY HALLOWEEN🎃🦇

Lorehaven Bound: A Hunger Pangs Short is now available on Amazon.

A train ride through the Nevrondian countryside should be a calming proposition, but for Ursula, it isn't. Her thoughts swirl, fixated on one thing... make that two things. Specifically Nathan Northland and Vlad Blutstein. It's not just because they are both breath-stealingly attractive—although to be fair, that doesn't hurt. It's because they surprised her, and Ursula is very rarely surprised.

Even more confounding is her reaction to them, particularly the vampire, Vlad. Just what is she supposed to do about these... feelings?

All Ursula knows is that she doesn't have time for emotions right now. Not when the fate of the world is at stake. She can deal with this later. First, she's got to figure out what story she's going to tell the sure-to-be-furious Alfbern. Then, she needs to catch up on all the sleep she missed before hitting the road again. Surely, she can do those things while being Lorehaven Bound.

*

This story is a 10,000-word character study/missing moment that takes place immediately after Hunger Pangs: True Love Bites. You will want to read that first if you don't want to be spoiled for the events in that book!

---

💖 Available now on Amazon

💖 Apple, Kobo, Smashwords, and more... (links still populating.)

💖Payhip - my personal storefront 💖

Happy reading!

Okay, thanks, love you all, bye.

ID: A red book cover showing a feminine figure standing in front of a steam strain. The title reads Lorehaven Bound, A Hunger Pangs short by International Bestselling Author Joy Demorra. There is a glittery crystal next to the text, and gold decorative swirls adorn the corners.

Your bed is extremely uncomfortable. In fact, it keeps moving. Cracking an eye, you realize you are laying on top of a very broad, very green chest and while you can feel that your orc is wearing pants, you are very, very naked. You must have shifted out of your rabbit form in your sleep, after he carried you in his coat all day to keep you from the rain.

He opens his eyes wide, mouth moving in panicked silence. You're terrified of what he might say, so you slam your lips into his fiercely, taking what you've dreamed of for years.

Your rabbit instincts agree, fucking is the solution to so many problems. He kisses his way down your neck until he reaches your chest.

“Oh Precious,” he rumbles, “you're a fucking feast. I’ve been imagining you naked since the moment I saw you again.” He presses your breasts together and nestles his face between them. “But these beauties make my mouth water.”

Intro 💃🏾✨

Hi! I'm Alyssa (she/her). I'm a scientist, artist, and writer. I've decided to throw my writing into the void and see what happens!

I'm educated as a scientist, but I spend my free time drawing, painting, writing, and playing music. I've been writing my whole life, but I first shared my work on Wattpad. I started writing consistently again a few months ago. I primarily write science fiction/fantasy with a touch of romance.

***

My current WIP is titled "The Protolith."

[Stock credits: Cathleen Tarawhiti, Faestock, Digital Curio, Phoenix Rising on DeviantArt]

This novel follows Charlotte, a biracial medical student and noblewoman who seeks to bring honor back to her disgraced family. This second world fantasy takes place in a world scarred by an ancient, unexplored meteorite, in an Empire where the traditional theocracy and sexually liberated culture are constantly at odds. Follow Charlotte as she faces unexplained magicks while haunted by past, romantic affairs.

I'd love to meet other authors! Pls reach out if you have similar interests so we can be friends : )

More @ockissweek 💋 And continuing with the Seven Qualities of Fairycraft, day two – Generosity.

So, we have relatively new OCs Florence (on the left) and Devaney (on the right), both citizens of another of the Gnomish cities. I do not have their story in detail yet, but based on what we’ve seen of them here and here, they are a Tock-and-Bumble-style friendship that tips into romance instead of siblinghood. And for “generosity,” because considering their different classes – Florence a noble Gnome, and Devaney of the working class – their connection must have begun with acts of generousness. Even if just generous thinking, on both sides.

AND they’re having a nose-kiss instead of a lips-kiss because for many Gnomes of many different realms, nose-kisses are amongst the first steps of affection.

Big thanks again to @artofmisi for organizing this event!

Hello Tumblr! We are The Steampunk Compendium, a collaborative work to archive and inform on all things steampunk! Currently housing only two members, The Steampunk Compendium aims to hopefully spread the steampunk subculture and genre to more of those it would appeal to, while also talking about the media we love! We are also working on a website, so keep an eye out for updates on that! Submissions are open, so if you'd like us to get to talking about or archiving works of a particular type sooner rather than later, feel free to let us know by sending an ask our way! Eventually, there will be a masterpost of all the tags and medias posted about, but until then, you may have to sort through our tags to find things! We are terribly sorry in advance!

Until next time! --- Mods Cogs and Coil

Writing a longer story version of Ori/Arkasi that will be a very smutty romance novel (as you can see from my previous Ori/Arkasi writings).

Follow along at the link above! Only available if you're logged in to AO3 for bot skimming reasons. Updates will be whenever I feel like it.

I am absolutely serious about this story being 18+ only, please read the warnings and tags and also chapters will have trigger warnings when necessary in the pre-chapter notes. Blanket warning for homelessness, living on the streets, food insecurity, and assault/harassment.

Redoing my intro post for easier readability XD

Personal:

- call me Ren (this might change)

- I am a he/him (this might change)

- I am an adult and don't wish to interact with minors (this will not change)

- I don't always have the capacity for conversations and even when I do, I'll usually peter out pretty quickly

- I write very queer things, usually romance, slice-of-life, hopepunk or them all at once

- I am currently working on a gay gaslamp fantasy monster romance series as well as various standalone books that jump from contemporary romance to sci-fi, to apocalypses and etc.

This blog:

- had no clear subject but is probably most closely aligned with a writerblr at the moment

- I do not reblog things to this blog unless I am adding something to a post

- related, my reblogs are at @sojourningogre

- some of my tags are: ogre talk, ogre writes, am writing, writing, in which ogre handwaves meta

- I am open to tag games and the like

- I don't currently have wip specific tags for my projects but probably will soon (tbd)

- I carefully curate my following list to ensure my dash timeline does not move too quickly

Other places:

- dreamwidth = more formal blogging, usually also related to writing

- mastodon = more informal blogging both related to writing and not, am probably most active there

- twitch = streams games (currently Hades & Prey) and on the rare occasion some writing

- picarto = writing streams and on the rare occasion some drawing

Support:

- throne.com = my wishlist that's mostly full of very, very gay books

HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO ME!! I am thrilled to report THE WORLD OF TOMORROW IS SADLY OUTDATED is now in the world in an exclusive digital & audiobook edition via @bryantstreetpub!

New York City: The Year is 1889.

New York City: The Year is 2089.

In 1889 a group of bold pseudo-scientists discover the "temporal current" and begin to view the distant future that await the Empire City. In the future, all life as we know it has crumbled, leaving New York City a ghost town with a populous scrabbling to survive underground. In the past it's up to an unlikely group of Victorians to preserve something of their world to save their future generations. In the future it's up to an unlikely group of survivors to take a leap of faith; discovering what their ancestors left for them with no more guarantees than love and hope. https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpx9lMcv_3d/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This dragon doesn’t shift.

Very naughty NSFW excerpt from my latest release follows. Swear words also. Discretion advised!!!

.

He groaned. “Flamestones, that’s good. You’ve got such a warm, tight little mouth, don’t you? Fuck.”

I pulled off. “Your talking is really ruining it for me.”

“Oh, is it? I’m sorry.” He was sarcastic. “Are you going to stop?”

Of course I wasn’t going to stop. I put my mouth back and started sucking again.

“That’s what I thought,” he grunted. “Like that, then. Just like that.”

“I hate you,” I said, but it was muffled around his cock.

“What?” he said.

I pulled off. “I hate you.”

“Mmm, oh, me too, you human temptress whore. I despise you.”

“I’m going to kill you as soon as I get your seed, you know. Cut your damnable head off.”

He gasped, coils tightening. “Are you?”

“Is that turning you on?” I said, appalled.

“No,” he said through gritted teeth, and he thrust himself up, back into my mouth. “Not at all.”

Hunger Pangs: True Love Bites

In a world of dwindling hope, love has never mattered more...

Captain Nathan J. Northland had no idea what to expect when he returned home to Lorehaven injured from war, but it certainly wasn’t to find himself posted on an island full of vampires. An island whose local vampire dandy lord causes Nathan to feel strange things he’d never felt before. Particularly about fangs.

When Vlad Blutstein agreed to hire Nathan as Captain of the Eyrie Guard, he hadn’t been sure what to expect either, but it certainly hadn’t been to fall in love with a disabled werewolf. However Vlad has fallen and fallen hard, and that’s the problem.

Torn by their allegiances–to family, to duty, and the age-old enmity between vampires and werewolves–the pair find themselves in a difficult situation: to love where the heart wants or to follow where expectation demands.

The situation is complicated further when a mysterious and beguiling figure known only as Lady Ursula crashes into their lives, bringing with her dark omens of death, doom, and destruction in her wake.

And a desperate plea for help neither of them can ignore.

Hunger Pangs: True Love Bites by Joy Demorra is a queer, paranormal, gaslamp fantasy romance novel featuring enchanted forests, gothic castles, and just a smidge of industrial coal dust, and is the first book of the Hunger Pangs slow-burn polyamorous romance series. Join Vlad, Nathan, and Ursula as they navigate a magical world torn asunder war and politics as they work to restore balance to the world and find love along the way. Book one is available now in ebook, paperback, and audio.

Buy the (high heat) Flirting With Fangs Edition Here.

Buy the (medium heat) Fluff and Fangs Edition Here.

Why are there two versions, and what's the difference between them? Glad you asked! You can also check out individual content tags and heat ratings on my website at www.joydemorra.com

As often happens, you wake to the hard bar of your monster's cock at your back, his hand groping for your breast. You're never sure who started it, but you grind back against him regardless. He groans, deep in your ear as his other hand glides under your nightgown. His fingers slip easily over your clit, pressing and circling as growls in your ear. You wiggle against him wishing he was filling you instead. He chuckles darkly, his tusks grazing your neck as the hand from your breast shifts to pin to you him.

"please, I need your cock," you beg, only for his arm to grip harder.

"ah, ah, ah, precious. I like you like this, caught and squirming against me, such good, sweet little prey. I want you to come for me, previous, and then I want you to run."
