No More I'm Sorries

A kind reader asked, what was I saying sorry for, and I realized that he was right. This story is different from Tired in some ways, and if you don't like it, feel free to read something else.

I've structured Favor to be more episodic in nature, and as a result, it lets me experiment with some different scenarios, stretching a bit, if you will. I

am enjoying taking ideas, both mine and my readers, and seeing where I can go with them.

I'm having fun, and for what I get paid for this, that's all I can ask :-)

Where I get my ideas from

Most of the ideas for my long stories come from my warped mind. However I sometimes (more often recently) get an idea from what someone writes me. The ideas in a number of my later chapters of Favor came from readers, as did my Office Discipline story.

A reader wrote to me and said that she worked in an office, reporting to her Mistress. That made me think about what happens when you do something wrong in that environment, and there was the story.

The Halloween episodes from Favor came the same way, as did a couple of chapters in Part 5. I also have another story I got from a reader that will be coming after I am done with the Favor.

So, keep the ideas coming! I like them all, even the ones that I don't use, even the ones I never manage to respond to!

Favor Part 3 now complete

Well, I've just posted the final two chapters of Part 3 of the Favor. The idea for these chapters came from one of my readers. He was giving me all sorts of advice and suggestions, and one paragraph read:

On halloween, does he make her wear the collar and leash to a costume party? Paint her nose black and a body suit with dalmation spots and *VOILA* publicly acceptable BDSM display.

From that came these two chapters, so thanks, Harry!

Part 4 is, for the most part, complete. I still need to finish 1 1/2 chapters, but the rest are done. The first three chapters are going to Peter for editing today, but you most likely won't see any new chapters for another week. It takes at least that long for the multiple reads that both Peter and I do before it is posted.

For those readers that sent me comments and did not get replies, I'm sorry. I try to respond to as many people as I can. If the comments pop something into my head, I might ask for more information, or tell you I am stealing your idea. Sometimes, however, in the crush of real life, I miss responding. I do read them all, however, and appreciate every one!

To keep you occupied while I finish up Part 4, tomorrow I will post a little story called Office Discipline that I wrote, again in response to a comment from a reader.

Enjoy!
