Return of the Kistulot

It's been just a little over a month. Crazy, huh? I'd gotten better, too.

Well, it's an appropriate place to have been stopped for a moment or two, isn't it? Storywise, this is similar to having reached The Memory Remains in the original series, and that was where I had a bit of lag.

As you'll remember however, following that my writing gained a new form of regularity and I plowed through lead ins between almost every story, TAP, ISP, TS&O, and RMR.

I was lulled away from writing by a combination of bronchitus, work stress and my birthday. Well, that's all better now! My mother's birthday hits next month, and she's asked to watch the Wizard of Oz while listening to the dark side of the moon for her party of sorts on my HD TV. For those of you who don't know, the Wizard of Oz is one of those movies that quite affected me as a child. I think TMR (oddly enough) makes this apparent, but if not there it goes for the record. It'll be fun.

For writing? Ink Stained Reunion is well under way. I'm looking forward to this weekend being it's debut. It'll probably take the month for me to finish, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Some reasoning for my lost momentum may be that the Archive hasn't been a place I've particularly enjoyed reading for awhile. No huge rant here, jsut dissappointment. Back in highschool I would sometimes get through the week hoping for some new trilby or tabico, something exciting, enticing, way not supposed to be something I read about. It feels like something in the archive has been lost. I probably helped, but I'll be doing what I can to add my voice anew.

Carpe Argentum!!!

For the first time, I say before Simon!

So my loyal fans, what is it, you ask, that makes the subject line of this post true?

Well, I was sick last week, and therefore was quite a bit behind writing schedule. Instead of making you all wait, and since Simon's new formatting makes it so we can't steal his source code anyway (yeah, we'd been doing that for awhiiiile) I personally took the time to update the site. Val stayed up late marking up Nebula, and I woke up, finished my edits on it, and then coded it up, put it up, added descriptions to fan art . . . voila.

It's not a lot of fun to go through putting

tags and

tags everywhere, but a chickies gotta do what a chickie's gotta do! You, my fans, deserved this on-time update.

Also, last night I found my long lost word count document and brought it up to date. I had to show off the results.

This of course neglects the latest tale that I have to add in after I'm done with this post, but am too lazy to do now. This means since I've been writing for the archive (Unit 9 and Coping Mechanism by the way only use the rewritten values) I have only 75,078 polished words, not counting Nebula Volume XI, until I break one million.

I don't know what to say.

I want to thank all of you that read the blot, that contributed fanart, that well, tolerated my sometimes sporadic updates. I want to thank everyone who was happy when I created the Argent Garden forum, and then everyone who kept reading my work after I left once, then twice. I know I'm a rather thorny person, attempting to be warm but then storming off and locking doors, but some few of you have tolerated it at least for the sake of my writing - and honestly that's what I care about most.

Events in the Silververse are heating up. Darksong, another contributor to the greater Midasverse as I call it, has another story going up that may lead to an actual Silververse-Omegaverse crossover. New technologies introduced in Electrum Volume 11 lead well to a crossover with Once and Future Kim's Wires.

I only wish Decker were still about for some fun Psyche and Fractal fun.

That said, I admit it would be fun to have a more expanded Midasverse. I've attempted to do that through varying my style between Electrum and Nebula, but that only provides a little bit more. More unique, distinct voices could be fun. Oh well, right?

My lovely erislave and I might work on a webcomic together, and it MIGHT be Midasthemed. Since she'll be doing the hard part, I want her to make the call on that. If it happens, I'll let you all know here.

Hrm, lets see, what else is there to tell . . . Holidays are approaching, and I'll be doing damn near everything I possibly can to get Nebula Volume XII done by the end of the year. The event to follow is one I don't want to push back, even if there's no way in hell I can finish it by the end of the year. Then, I see another set of stories panning before us, finishing out the Sisters' stories by the end of 2010.

I'm tempted to go about commissioning some art of Sarah, Lacie, Jacqui, and Leona all posing together, or all mind fried together. I think I just might.

Good writing does two things. It makes you want to read, or it makes you want to write. I've done both, and while after I finish my tales in Midas I intend to withdraw from posting actively on the archive, I hope my writing is still able to have the same effect.

Again, thank you all, and I hope you're having a lovely holiday season.

Right on Time

The blog post will be a lot more amusing once the story associated goes up. Trust me.

That's right - Electrum got done in less than a week! How? I have no damn clue. I was simply driven. Like some kind of formula one racer. Awesome, huh?

Some new art will be posted up on the site this weekend. I don't know when I'll get to collecting it all for Val, but more will be going up - including some of the first fanart of everyone's favorite inkblossom, Quillspawn!

Mentioning Quillspawn . . . something occurs to me off and on. Scribe and Shadow still needs to go up on my website.

I guess I could put it directly after red moon on it's page. It does belong there. I'll poke everyone's favorite robot to get to work on that too. Events are in motion that make it a fairly important story to read. That's probably vaguely nearing a spoiler, but it's more of a teaser. Imagine it said with drips of ink slowly splashing on a white piece of paper and spreading out to say something like "December 2009 . . ." drops coalescing oddly, and reforming into the words "Ink drips from the shadows . . ." or something.

It sounded cool in my head. If I could draw worth a damn, I'd probably animate it in flash - if I had flash installed on my computer. Still a program or two I need to get loaded back up . . .

Well, that's pretty much all for now since I don't want to spoilerize anything. Nebula Volume XI doesn't even have a working title yet, but it's going to be a special one, too. The twelves are going to be real turning points, and then . . .

Well, just count up how many pages there will be at that point, pages being volumes plus chapters of initial pieces. I think you'll see a pattern.

Until next time!

Late Update!

So, I have a lot to say, and frankly, this took me too long to get to. Sorry about that. Life isn't getting in the way, but how much it has been getting in the way I've been a little lazy when I've had the capability.

New Super Mario Bros Wii came out yesterday, and I spent a good long time playing through a majority of it with Val. Was lotsa fun. We'll need to finish it still, but i feel satisfied mariowise. Chucking people you love off of cliffs? its a great stress reliever. Trust me.

A very sweet fan, amusingly named the same as my first glittering heroine (Sarah, not Silver Girl, silly) granted me a legitimate key for Windows 7 Ultimate - so I'm finally off of the XP train. So far really preferring it this way. A thing here or there isn't doing just what I want (Paint Shop Pro 7 isn't very happy with me - maybe because it's not the only 7 anymore?) but overall it runs faster, feels slicker, and is preeeetty. So that's all that matters.

Got Valencia a new laptop, a Toshiba Satellite. You never notice how small a netbook is until you stack it on top of a real laptop. Wow. Sylvia is TINY. Sylvia, incase I haven't said it, is the name of my netbook as my old desktop was named Aurora.

Aurora is getting so very close to some very big plot developments. Its so hard to restrain myself, but this needs to be done right or it'll be pointless. There's so much right on the verge of "popping". Sylvia has some things coming her way, but differently.

Their crossover is getting closer and closer, too. If I focus a little, maybe it'll be a sort of winter-season present? I'm not sure if I'll be able to make that deadline for starting it off/finishing it, but it's what I'm mentally aiming for.

Work has become stressful in a whole new way. People are leaving my contract. A lot. But still, we're "overstaffed." My hours have been cut back to 37 hours a week. To be honest? Any excuse not to be at work that doesn't get me fired or make me look worse. The job has become more exhausting, and I've actually recieved a pay cut for taking a "promotion."

So life is stressful. Val is happy. Mario is fun. Stories are moving forward.

Fanmail more appreciated than ever!

~Madam Kistulot

Four more years! Elect LaSilvas!

Okay, so work has calmed down, so why so slow now eh? Good question. This morning the max broke down, more details on what a max is at the Trimet Website, but previous to that? Exhaustion and writers' block. I've capped 55 stories in four years on the archive. Four years.

Its quality though, not quantity, but I'd like to think I've got that, too. Maybe not every story, and the earlier could use a rewrite . . . but I'd like to think they're worthy additions.

I'd have a mite fewer if I hadn't played with story conventions a little. Lead-ins were fun. After a nearing event, Nebula will revert to a more classic multi chapter story. Electrum seems to work best this way - but feel free to chime in if you dissagree.

Four years . . .

That's highschool. Thats a bachelor's degree. Thats longer than most marriages . . .

Sarah was born in June, so she's been four for awhile. Old enough to go to preschool, and get ready for kindergarden. She'll make an adorable school girl in a year or two.

She still has years before her chronological existence is jailbait, but we know how she'll turnout. Mmm.

Okay verge of creepy There. Sorry! Regardless, more should be coming, but I'm not promising as rigorous a schedule. I just can't keep up with it. I'm not going to purposefully go slow, but I don't know how well these deadlines are working for me or for story quality. So, apologies, but things might come a little slower. Probably not much than as of late, but hey . . . at least I'm posting, and rather regularly.

Gotta have something else in the update besides lisa teez in red, eh?

That's all for now,

~Madam Kistulot

Floral Engagement

Electrum Volume 9 is done and sent in!

It might be a little rough, but well . . . work, sickness, stress . . . I think I'm lucky I didn't have to start this one over from scratch. This one of course dives a little more into Flower Chylde, or Flora as she's known day to day. The next story will have a slightly Psiona based focus.

As for Nebula Volume IX, I've already started it. Some time back, and not very much, but it shouldn't be nearly as hard to write or take nearly as long for any of you to see.

The end of Volume 9 shows a hint of plans that I've had building up since a nightmare/dream I had some time back. It was freaky while having it, but it gave me some great ideas. I'm not sure what to call it, or what to call the new figure seen in brief, but I'll figure it out in enough time. I've known goals, inspirations, aspirations for some time.

I do make a lot up as I go along, but the little things I drop here or there, well, I try to know what my foreshadowing means. I admit a time or two I do lazy "this will be something eventually" like the light in Sarah's head back in tAoSG, but I try to do that less often.

It's also fun when you just write as you go, and yet foreshadowing creeps in anyway.

It's like your mind telling you where you're going.

Being a writer is strange . . .

~Madam Kistulot

Still not dead!

You know how you remember to do things right after you save them/send them? There's no "next week!" Teaser. Bah. Oh well! Electrum Volume 5 will be out next week even if I'm a space case.

Speaking of space casery, the first two stories of my comeback have no editing but my own. Honestly. Stresses caused me to want to do it on my own, and Valencia along with several others lead me to well . . . take that thought under advisement, and I ended up deciding I could use an editor after all, even if just type editing, which honestly is very very important.

Very.

So, I have my new computer. Atma. Pictures will surface soon. she's dual core, and has a very double theme to her case design, so I am calling her Atma, with the last name genji. If you know why you're awesome.

So, more will come. Realize it. Accept it. Embrace it. Eventually it may become something you don't want, but I hope not. Their stories are honestly going differently than I intended, though the moment of reentwinement remains the same. I figure somewhere around their collective volume 12s is where I'll bring them back together agfter a single story from neither of their perspectives.

It all depends on how things go, I guess!

Thank you everyone who has shown your support. I'm exhausted, and still setting up my new computer, so I'm going to leave you all now to your own ends, and wish you a wonderful week!

New job burnout

Heya everyone!

You'll notice by now I haven't had anything in the last two updates, nor have I contributed to the blog in awhile. Sorry. Not so much intentional, as I've been horrifically burned out, and I've needed a break from my personal deadlines - and writing has been very difficult. I have a four hour commute each day, and my handwriting is atrocious, so I've recently ordered a new notebook and I should have it by... Tuesday? At the latest. And then, I intend to write during my commute.

Five and a half hours of battery life? Mmmm, battery life.

So I just wanted to give everyone an update, and apologize. I really haven't had time to barely do anything at all besides unwind as of late, and try to de-stress which has worked with varying amounts of success.

I haven't really even had time to pay attention, but I admit I am getting a giggle out of the return of Sara H. I'm glad to know she's well, but going from bashing everyone's work and saying you're the best writer in the world who doesn't write according to cliches, then only writing cliches, demanding to be known as a new name, then taking back your old title... I have to admit, this is petty to post, but I did get a kick out of hearing about it. I don't pay attention to the forums, or most stories, but I listen to some that do.

So, I hope you're all well, and I'm sorry that Nebula and Electrum hit an update snag, but I have plenty planned for them!

Happy Reading!

~Madam Kistulot

It's been awhile - sorry!

Hello everyone!

I just wanted to let you all know that I'm not dead with my work being published post homunously. Humonously. However the frell you spell that.

I am very much alive (or so they tell me) and that is unlikely to change any particular time soon.

I've started a new job! Due to their rules about posting on blogs, I have decided to merely tell you the away message that I have up on Pidgin: I work in salt mines tech supporting fruit. Not exactly the message, but nooone the less! Due to this job, and adjusting, I sort of lost the steam I had going in my writing - so this week gets to be a by week. Sorry! If football teams get them (why can't my 49ers play anymore? at least the raiders have been good more recently than they...) then I can too!

So, none this week, and an apology for no blog activity. Volumes 3 are very... wait a tick. Electrum Volume 3... Okay, I actually can get that done. And there will be some this week. All I need to do is put it in a text file and send it off.

Electrum Volume 4 and Nebula Volume III are well under way. Ignore my insanity, and I apologise for my silence either way.

Twists are comming! Just be patient. The tide tuuuuurns! Or some such.

~Madam Kistulot

The Dark Knight

Sarah: Welcome everyone, to the Adventures of Silver Girl . . .

Olivia: And Aureus!

Sarah: As we sit back and give you reviews on comic book movies . . .

Olivia: From real super heroines! . . . Sarah?

Sarah: Yeah sweetie?

Olivia: Why do you get all of the long lines in the intro? I don't think that's fair. Your name comes first, and I never spent any time as a super villain, unlike someone.

Sarah: . . . Next time. I promise. Your name goes first, you get the longer lines. Promise!

Olivia: Sounds good! So! Today's film is The Dark Knight, Starring Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Aaron Eckhart, and the adorable Maggie Gyllenhaal.

Sarah: And Garry Oldman with a guest spot of Cillian Murphy, both of them reprising their roles from the previous films. But those don't get adorable added to them.

Olivia: Hey. I can't help it. Maggie is adorable, and you know it. She's cute as a button. Plus, she's a very welcome change from Katie Holmes, whose husband is more mind fried than you were back during your bouts with the Stockholm's.

Sarah: True, and . . . true. Rachel Dawes goes from seeming pouty and annoying to an actual character, even if her primary function is as before to affect the Bat, and this time, Harvey Dent. Her much cuter voice makes it much more enjoyable to watch.

Olivia: Agreed! The casting was excellent, period. Well, everyone that worked last time still worked. Michael Caine was great as before, and Cillian Murphy's brief little cameo does well to remind all of us that just because you deal with someone, if they aren't dead, you shouldn't count them out.

Sarah: One of these days, hopefully, that'll stop being the case.

Olivia: Hopefully. I wouldn't bet on it though. Mourning Frost, Dust, people like them have a tendency of just not going away.

Sarah: Better than going around killing them, which is an important.

Olivia: Obviously. And more important to be aware of the stronger you are.

Sarah: That's right, my gold little fighter!

Olivia: That is horribly uncreative, sweetie! Call me something cooler.

Sarah: Well uhm... The Golden . . . The metal . . . maiden!

Olivia: . . . Saraaaaah . . . Okay. At least you didn't call me Liv.

Sarah: You got it, livie!

Olivia: -whines- Okay . . . Well, for one, Batman passes out not at all through out this flick, therefore making it inaccurate to SARAH'S experiences . . .

Sarah: Now you're just being mean! But yes, the Bats pulls everything off with an amazing amount of skill and far cooler toys than I ever had as Patina. The "Batpod" looked rediculous on the movie posters I know, but It looks awesome in action, and its awesomeness is functional as well as visual. If Sylvia had those kind of moves . . .

Olivia: If Sylvia could move like that, you'd be wearing a helmet.

Sarah: . . . -whimper- You're not very fair.

Olivia: Hey, I've said it before. I won't splatter.

Sarah: You got anything to add?!

Olivia: Of course. The action scenes were all very energetic, though at times things felt a little one sided, and our heroes and their allies/patrons were a little hesitant to do anything besides get the crap beaten out of them until things go just a little too far. A lot of good people, innocent people, got hurt because people were kinda... waiting.

Sarah: And Bruce is a little... emotional. Lets face it Bruce, you dress like a bat. Even at worst I only dressed like- and don't you say a word Olivia- a figure skater or a sailor scout or something. Though I didn't realize the latter for looong time. That was embarrassing . . . but anyway! If you dress up like that, you've gotta do dark things. You've gotta kick ass. And you don't get to quit.

Olivia: Well, it did have some familiar feelings to . . . which batman movie was that where batman wanted to quit, but realized he couldn't? Forever? And Robin? I don't remember. Either way, well, it shows that bats' treatment isn't new at least.

Sarah: TO be fair, he deals with it fairly decently . . .

Olivia: Yeah, I know. For a rich boy whose biggest threat is a clown with bad makeup skills.

Sarah: Do not make fun of the joker. Heath Ledger did an awesome job.

Olivia: He did, honestly. He made you believe that a clown could be the biggest threat to Gotham. A gangster clown, sort of. Part of this is because the town seemed ill equipped to deal with anyone who wasn't afraid of getting killed or arrested doing crazy things. The Bat is good, but he can't be everywhere.

Sarah: True. Mostly.

Olivia: Not everyone has an alternate future self.

Sarah: Batman does! Sort of. He's from the future!

Olivia: Terry doesn't count.

Sarah: ...point...

Olivia: So! Action was good, and Sarah has adorable problems. All a part of why we love her. Characters were good. Actors were good.

Sarah: The theme was hammered in a little hard. Like way too hard. I think they told me the moral of the movie every five minutes.

Olivia: That's because it'll be on the test later.

Sarah: True! Because at the end, if you weren't really following that meaning, its just a kick in the teeth.

Olivia: It is anyway! Its the kind of story that demands a sequel, and this one took what . . . four years?

Sarah: Fuck.

Olivia: Well, I give it two golden thumbs up. Over all, the only flaws I can think of didn't detract from the movie, even when pointed out by Jade when we had her over for dinner the other night.

Sarah: Mmmm that was some dinner . . .

Olivia: A-hem? -glare-

Sarah: Oh! Right! I give it five sparks!

Olivia: And thus concludes The Adventures of Aureus and Silver Girl!

Sarah: Hey, you said that backwards!

Overdue, APU

It should be no surprise to anyone when I'm a little, or a lot late on a post.

So, what is this post late for?

Last week, one of the best MC stories on the whole site popped up. Maybe I'm a little more mature in saying this, but well . . . enthusiasm never hurts, does it?

I've been reading mc stories for a good . . . six years now? seven . . . I know I already knew the site freshman year in high school . . . I was one of those latch-key kids, so I had plenty of time to get away with things I wasn't supposed to. I actually remember times when I would stay up extra late to catch the update to uhm . . . peruse before my mom woke up, then crash and sleep in late.

Anyway, I've been reading for a long time, and I've developed strong preferences and a strong knowledge of the site. At least I think so. There are a lot f stories that I enjoy - something I need to update on the main site - but honestly thrall's Mirrored in Your Eyes hit on everything that makes a good story, and good mc story. There was hot yummy mindlessness, sweet sizzling romance. . . doubt that whets ones curiosity, conflict, twists that make you doubt what you've been thinking all along about the characters . . .

I might not go into long diatribes, but perhaps I should? I don't think it would particularly hurt, but honestly I enjoy just giving little blurbs of how these things affect me and what I reflect on most. I don't do my best long winded descriptions as myself. Need character voices for things like that!

But yes,read Mirrored in Your Eyes. Its everything you could ask for, and more! once again showing that thrall is one of the finest names in mc fiction! Really need to add her and my favorite of her works to my recommended reading section.

Right off the top of my mind, Tenpack of Trixies, Willing Subject, Solitare, Softbots, Inc., and Love in a Silver Socket would rate very highly and should be required reading if you enjoy f/f. Really. Salvation too no doubt, which is a co-op... and the other co-op, Goldilocks.

All amazing stories, those.

Speaking of character voices, I decided that time to time I would write movie reviews. . . but that doesn't fit this blog, does it? Nope! But I thought it up when I saw Dark Knight the first time, last week, and it occurred to me... what would Olivia and Sarah think of these movies, all cuddled up on a movie night? Written in scrip format, it could be pretty fun.

Sarah: I give it five and a half sparks!

Olivia: I think its only supposed to go up to five . . and what am I suppsed to give it, golden thumbs up?

Sarah: Well lots of you is golden, I'm sure we can think of something . . .

A-hem, appears we've interrupted a private moment . . .

Still, would that be something people would like? Work on the continuing Midasverse and rewrite of tAoSG continues, just so you all know!

Happy reading!

New Blog and New Content

Welcome to the new and improved Kistublot!

My fellow contributors have already posted, and I've meant to several times, but oh well right? We all know I can take a little extra time time to time, but that when it comes down to it I . . . sometimes get things done . . . Oh wait, none of you actually knew me in high school. I can lie about that? Hooray!

One random factoid: The first novel length story I completed was originally written starting in the summer of my freshman year of high school. It would grow, expand, be given in total about five drafts, and the final of which to current date was written mostly at the end of my senior year. The school I went to had slowly become more and more strict since it was built, canceling upper classperson off campus privileges the year before I began attending...

However?

Once you were 18, you were able to sign yourself out with no scrutiny. So a few times I signed myself out of my last class, Graphic Design (the other block day's class, Creative Writing, was the class I looked forward to all day to get through the other crap) and would go to a park to write. Excuses included medical, dental, familial, and once I think I might have slipped and mentioned the truth in a not to clever way.

But I didn't really care anyway by that point. Not that I didn't care about graduating - I did - but freshman year alone had ruined my GPA to the point where having some absences at the very end didn't really matter to me much. Some of those park-writing-sessions took place at the park where - listening to The Servant's song "Cells" I wrote the introduction to "The Adventures of Silver Girl."

One thing I miss about writing Silver Girl, and the stuff before, was that I would often write it in wordpad so I couldn't see how long it was getting. Now a days, even if I were to do that due to well... experience... I'd know. I can't go back to the things I miss about the beginning of this era of my writing, which makes me wax nostalgically for them.

Oh well, huh? It happens!

That brings another thing to mind: tAoSG is horrifically well . . . not up to par with the writing of the later stories. Have I talked about that here on the blog before? I'm honestly not sure. So much comes up. and I don't pay nearly enough attention to me own blog. Mostly, honestly, because I didn't foresee this writing slump... and its a little depressing.

So anyway, have I asked this here? How would people feel if Silver Girl got a THX makeover? The original would remain, fully intact, this would be sort of... a digital remastering, a director's cut... the story we all know and love upgraded to suit the fact that I no longer suck.

How does that sound to everyone?

Not because I wont do it if you dislike it, but well, some support would help me get off my ass about it. The original will still exist and be distributed, just not on the EMCSA. It would be kept on me sitey. For people's benefit, I would even zip file it and be like "Tada!" or I could steal the HTML from the way back machine . . . and be like "as it originally looked!"

The latter sounds cooler . . .

Lastnight I wrote a story just over the length of Exvolensation. I think it's a better idea, and story, overall. I think I'll write another two stories of about equal length, and include them as an anthology.

Also have a new idea about a psychic detective. Its not lame as it might sound, promise. Its actually very, very cool. You'll all have to wait to see how that turns out, because I like the idea I'm working on currently. I'll preview the first story soon as I have them all written and give them twice overs.

I end this post with a little bonus: here.

Enjoy!

Hullo again my loyal minions!

I haven't been posting as much because well, I've had other story ideas than just the spin offs . . . but I can't really manage to write them. I tried several ideas, and the closest I came was my little vampire story this update, that well, lets just say has been a little bit of a depressing nightmare.

The Secret Origins series is being delayed indefinitely, sadly. In a small part I think we can all blame the late Olivia, but I'm not going to suggest a bunch of people start blaming a dead character. That would just be preposterous.

I'm actually tempted to try to write the secret origins series again.

I finally have more momentum for Sylvia, and Aurora all ready to edit (her first story), and I'm wanting to do that THX remastering of tAoSG i've been promising... not to mention the first of the secret origins series.

What tempts everyone the most? Let me hear your thoughts. Probably won't affect much, but hearing that people care might make my muse stop frigging for a bit and assist.

Preview!

Hello everyone, The Madam here again, and today with an extra special treat.

Though I've been told by the Valbot to postpone showing this off until I got an edit back . . . its a preview. You can all deal with a little bit of grammatic imperfection, right? Yay! Thats really the best way to go about these things, I'd say.

So, I didn't get as many comments as I wanted - honestly I just hoped for half. Damn, you're not supposed to say that . . . oh well! First, news! The Spiral Awards finalists have been revealed, and I am amongst them - twice! If you ever sent me fan mail or the like you already know this as I sent out my spiral awards newsletter.

So what now? Go to www.spiralawards.com and wait for it to magically update . . . or go: HERE and check out the nominations. Personally, I'd just recommend voting for my Ink Soaked Penumbra and the collaborative Go Team Porn, but that's just me!

How to vote? Well, you can't email Flibinite or Darkmind - They're both nominated! So, that leaves Rinky Dink, Topaz, and Nab. Now, Rinky Dink disappeared for no apparent reason, don't know Topaz very well, but if I remember my MCF history right Nab started these things and was upset when due to laziness and a hugely ugh technical snafu the spiral awards didn't get a chance last year, so I recommend emailing him at nabsq001@gmail.com with your nominations.

So, what're you waiting for? Vote! I needs me an award! And now, without further delayment!


Working Title: Electrum Introduction

Introduction:

The sensation of her nails clawing along my ass feels like heaven. We’ve fucked a thousand times but it still feels as intense as the first time. I used to think it was the thrill of how bad it would be if we got caught, but her lips wetly sucking on my neck dispel that theory. My thigh presses between hers as my nails dig into her hips, and my teeth close around her ear before giving a tender tug.

Raw, but restrained: that’s how she likes it so that’s how I like it.

I nip along her ear and slide my fingers roughly along her thighs to grasp behind them. Her body shakes as my fingers curl into her and I grind my body into hers hard enough that it feels like the whole world is shaking around us. My breasts mash into hers and I groan at the feeling of her hard nipples pressing against me. Her skin is soft and warm, but what I love about her body most is the way it glistens and shakes as she moans.

My lips trace a path to hers and I savor the feeling of her perfect lips against mine. They feel soft the way chocolate icing feels soft, but they yield so much less. Her taste makes me burn and soak against her thigh even more than the shaking of her leg.

Her nails dig into my thighs and tease more tender places, and I shake hard as she does. Nothing feels closer than this. Nothing feels better than her body and mine quivering as if we were joined at the clit.

It’s more than that. I rake my nails around and up her thigh, drawing back my leg just enough to cup my fingers around her sex. She clenches around my hand and I slide a fingertip up her slit before slipping inside. She clenches again, and even more when the second finger joins in. With each movement I start to memorize how her warm folds feel as she shudders and whines.

Her eyes almost look like they’re tugging themselves shut but can’t quite manage it, just enough open for me to gaze and dream of swimming in their depths. My thoughts are never this poetic when we’re not fucking. When we are I can’t think any other way.

Shaking fingers move from my thigh to my pussy, and I cry out as her fingers curl inside of me and start thrust in rhythm with her harsh breathing. It’s savageness makes my body burns hotter as I grind my whole body into my fingers. Her cry tells me just how deep she feels it and my fingers soak in the rewards of their continued vigor. A third joins them as my hips start to quiver.

The tips of her fingers start to heat up, feeling like electricity and a warm breeze rolled into one, and my eyes melt shut as I buck into her hand. The feeling spirals through my body, and I can feel it tugging my nipples against her breasts.

When she heats up like this, it’s like her body is a magnet and I’m made of metal. Its funny how true that can be sometimes, but right now I’m just flesh and sex. I whimper her name with each thrust and try to match them with my own. I’m in better shape, more toned and tight, but she’s got fingers that were born for grace and music. I can last longer, but she makes it so hard to last.

She cries out my name and it almost feels better than my fingers. It means that she feels more than jus the pleasure – she feels me. I nibble the place where her neck meets her body through the moans her fingers push out of me, curling my fingers more.

Her heat sizzles hotter, but she keeps it just cool enough so it won’t burn me away. She’s done it before and I love it, but this isn’t one of those times where we can afford the extra risk. If it were my fingers would be sizzling just like hers. My nipples shudder as her heat tugs them harder and I latch on to the other side of her neck. I find her clit with my thumb, and move my fingers faster, rougher, firmer. I can’t be graceful as she can, but I can make her feel every touch.

Our thighs are shaking quicker by the second, and I want it to last forever but it won’t. Her moans are too loud, and mine match, muffled in her flesh or not. My thighs clench harder around her hand and hers clench tighter around mine. I love it when she matches my movements, or I match hers. Something about it makes what should be wrong about this so much hotter.

The flood of pleasure is too strong, and I can’t fight it any more. Every barrier put in place to lengthen our pleasure melts away as we soak each other’s hands, and our screams have to be near the volume that breaks glass.

Our silence is even louder.

Slowly, our fingers that aren’t pruned move along each other’s bodies until they meet and slide between each other before squeezing tenderly close. My lips kiss their way to hers, and I savor her other lips’ exhausted clenching around my fingers. I love her so much. She’s always been in my life, and I never want that to change. I never want us to change. She was my first kiss, my first fuck, and I want her to be my lasts, too. It’s probably impossible, but that doesn’t make me crave it any less.

“We need to shower, or you’ll be late to work and I’ll be late to choir. This was risky enough with Sarah out on a day patrol . . . she could come back at any time . . .” Her voice makes me smile, even if her words make me sigh and fold up inside. “Hey, they’ll be gone tonight, we can cuddle more then.”

“Promise? If I’m looking forward to that all shift and you end up going out with your friends after choir I’ll be upset.” The look in her eyes screams that she knows she could get away with murder. She could go out with her friends and stay gone for a week, and I’d still be overjoyed to have her back. She would never do that, but if it happened I’d roll over for her like always.

At least tonight isn’t one of my special nights with mom. I love her training, but I love cuddling even more. At least I love cuddling more when it’s with my favorite cuddle partner. She’s so soft . . .

She laughs her musical laugh, the one that almost sounds as its set to a tune she could make me hear if she willed it hard enough, and her lips press to mine one last time before she starts to pull away. “I promise. Besides, it’s a big day tomorrow and I don’t want to be out all night. I’d much rather spend the night in here with you.”

“Hooray! My shift is going to feel like it’s taking forever, but it’ll be worth it. Plus, I love watching you all wet and soapy.” I grin, and she grins back. “Too bad we can’t have a quickie in the shower.”

I blow her a kiss with my wet fingers before starting to suckle them dry. Her pussy tastes so good a shudder rocks down my spine. No one could ever taste good as her. I don’t need to test that to know it’s true. Some things you just know deep inside of your heart.

I guess my earlier thought was wrong – I’m only poetic when it’s about her. Nothing else makes me open up like she does. With her it’s okay for me to be me. With everyone I have to hold back something.

Only she knows everything.

“Come on, Aurora! I’m not kidding – I really don’t want to be caught with my pants down if Sarah gets home. At least Valerie has a normal job that if anything will give her more hours not less . . . Sometimes I think you just like the thrill of getting caught.” She’s already halfway to the bathroom, and I rush to catch up. I can only imagine how Sarah would react . . .

“I know, Sylvia. I know. Trust me, the last thing I want is that.” I don’t tell her the thrill isn’t nearly as amazing as just being with her. Sometimes I think if she knew just how much I felt for her, she’d be afraid. I don’t want to lose her.

We slide into the steam of the shower, and wash away the evidence of our forbidden lust. Our love is encouraged, but our lust is not. It’s too cruel.

It makes me wish I were simple as most people think I am. There is one secret I keep from even Sylvia, so I guess that thought was wrong too. There’s so much wrong, and I’d love it if more things were right.

Our eyes lock through the steam, and I let myself enjoy the glistening of her silver and amethyst swirled eyes. Her irises are like twin yin yangs without the little dots. They used to be brown like mine, like our mother’s, before she grew into her gift. Her long, elegant hair is much the same, silver and amethyst weaved together in the most beautiful way anyone could ever imagine.

“I love you, sis.”

“I love you, too.”


And there you have it, the introduction to the first in what I'm calling Silver Girl: The Next Generation playfully in my head. Once I finish Sylvia's introductory story (both shaping up to be short chaptered stories, which I hope to follow with one chaptered stories sans for big sections) I might have a better name for the series, but yes, Aurora and Sylvia are both getting their own stories! Most of you likely already guessed that. Oh well!

Well, that's all for now, best wishes, comment . . . so forth! Tada!

~Madam Kistulot

Procrastatron must be stopped, no matter the cost...

The title of this post by the way is borrowed from the 1980's Transformers: The Movie line about Megatron. I've been procrastinating like crazy whilst sick, and guess what, I'm finally just barely well enough to stop catering to it! Haha! I will rise above! Sort of.

I had to be bribed to make this post with ice cream, after all . . .

Well, there are many things I've been meaning to say, so this post may be long. You'll just have to deal with that if you know what's good for you.

Why do I sound mean? I'm making this post so you can read it. Longer means more. If its too much, you can put it down and come back later without having to wait for something truly new. I'm doing you a service. My sickness has made me spiteful. More Kistulotican kindness is in order. So, I apologize for some of the snark MC MK is about to lay down along with some mad beatz. For real, yo.

Ow.

So first, last week's update: I know, nothing from me, but hey, live with it. I'm going to be posting less often now, but with more quality I believe. I'm not Lisa Teez, and thats hopefully one of the reasons you like my work.

I know, I need to not mention authors that make me roll my eyes so much, but come on, that begged it.

So anyway! Updates and such. In my writing, I've been working on something special for a commission - a fan fic story in fact. Not really something I write very much, but on commission I bend my limits a little. It got really far, then I got miserably sick. I plan to be done with it in short order.

Future works include: The Secret Origin series, volumes 1 and 2 at the very least, staring Dust and Pink accordingly. Many people wonder how these two supers got their powers. You'll find out in short order within these stories!

There are two stand alone pieces, a fantasy and a sci fi I also have relatively well plotted . . . but if either of these will ever be written is anyone's guess.

After these projects I plan to draw somewhat into seclusion and publish a lot less often while working on the obvious "sequel" project that will allow a lot of time for me to not worry so much about deadlines and push quality up high as it goes. For a little idea of just what that could be . . . this link should say it all.

If it doesn't, well . . . reread everything I've ever written.

Oh, a new Rose story may be churned out somewhat soon, purposefully being delayed until after V-day.

Right.

We all know thats sickness talking . . .

So, looking back at the last update I see one thing I enjoyed reading. Omega Girl 4! It puts Lacie into another lovely sticky situation. I'm loving the latest developments. OG is a series that to me proves I'm not a total snot/snob. There are many niggling little things inside of it, but overall I enjoy it for its fun, its story, and its ideas if not always its execution. The OG series is actually getting a crossover with the SG series, though using 2nd tier characters I suppose. I need to get on my part for that- though no one will be seeing any of it until it's posted, and that won't happen till it's done.

Still, Omega Girl 4 continues to keep me drawn in, which is no simple task!

Also in this week's red update, we have Sara Castle with her lovely elfen surprise nudity. Despite the hours I could spend groaning about how if she's going to rip off shadow run so much she could at least spell elven as such . . . I won't go into that.

Why?

Because I tried reading Touch of Frost, chapter 1.

I know I've hammered on about how I dislike her work before, but when told this was "a hint more toward what her writing was like before it was Jo-ified" I thought I would read one last SC tale to finale just to see what I could get from it.

What did I get from it?

A headache.

So here, I will finally be saying reasons why I think that Sara Castle is the doctor without clothes (due to her profession, a twist on the emperor and the like). Using big words does not make you an intelligent writer. Adding suspense by not going just from scene to scene, but saying "Things were not what they seemed AND PEOPLE KNEW AND OH MY GOD SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN" is not building suspense.

Looking back over much of my older work as I have as of late, I see her constant tense problem reflects some of my own work in an embarrassing way. Perhaps part of why this bothers me so much is I didn't even realize I was doing it. Harsher self editing will be fixing this to the point where I hope one day to count the caliber of my work among well... the best.

Taking a cliche plot and twisting it in a new way isn't a bad thing. However, taking a plot everyone knows and adapting it into a slightly different fetish genre is not the same. Making your cliche cyberpunk into cyber porn is not translation, or transition, it's the same thing people do when they just add sex to established fandoms - crap.

Lately I've been reading a lot of Iago - a writer who is I believe a master of the no-induction induction story - so I can enjoy a story that doesn't take a kacknotically long time to do a subtle sensual induction. I love such inductions done well, but I don't need them and they can often be a crutch. One part of a story cannot make up for the rest. However, if you're going to go through the trouble of pretending to have such scenes - the actual how and why and such - don't make them suck. Maybe one reason I hate the kind of cyberpunk she writes, is because she may as well be writing high fantasy with how ridiculous some of that tech is.

But in the end, I find that sadly a lot of the problem with her work now is what it was back when I wanted it to be good. I'm always left with at least some kind of half-full feeling. This done well, will make the average person (IE: undiscerning reader) believe that something went over their head. This however, does not mean the writer was too intelligent for you to follow. If you have to reread things over and over to fully understand a twisted induction and its yummy and such, thats one thing. If you're left rolling your eyes feeling as if the writer didn't even know part of the plot and found it clever?

That's not brilliance.

Thats a lack thereof.

I apologize in a way for this rant, as it was planned about two weeks ago so some of this isn't really coming to fruition due to me only remembering bits and pieces.

So, in this post, I make a new promise to you my readers: I will work harder with each piece I write that nothing that I bitch about or snark about will hit you in the face the way it hits me when I read it. I will work harder and harder to make sure no plot twist is convoluted. I will work harder to make sure if anything is over anyone's head, it is only above the character's head and if you miss it, well, you get to find out when the character does or upon a reread. I will make sure that I show my understanding of the English language without making you question my high school diploma.

There's more of course, but there's also a reason I haven't been writing whilst sick. I haven't been capable of that. Sadly this makes me worry my coming out of rust will still take more time, but well . . . such happens! We all just have to do our bests, right?

So, heres hoping theres something worth me reading tomorrow.

I'd rather not just go "oh great, men writing themselves into lesbian fantasies and sara castle pretending she can."

Also I would like to note that recently, the Jo herself, Valencia and I engaged in a conversation of SC's writing, to which Jo said that it should partially be excused due to her extenuating circumstances.

She can be forgiven for such, to an extent.

Her writing must stand on it's own.

If you are in a state where you have to make excuses for your writing, or those defending you need to, maybe you should work on honing your craft more instead of posting stories. A writer can always "clarify" after the fact, but a piece must stand alone. There are some of my own pieces that are weaker perhaps without someone pointing out facts, but I won't say you should ignore that. Perhaps I suggest reading through them to get to my better works, but never at the cost of pretending a story can be "supplemented" as such.

That's just cheapening your time, and mine.

Well, I think that finishes this up. Nothing more occurs to me.

Oh, one thing does: I've been rereading backlogs of writers since well . . . new stuff ain't doing it for me so much. I've gotten through most of my favorite writer's entire lists. Are there any writers I should glance through? Red stories only please, I'm not as forgiving as I was when I was a forum personality.

Also any Trilby stories I haven't read: would be nice to know which were less heavy on the repetition and more on the required reading list! So your blogger is begging for things to read during her recovery so she can give you more to read. Indulge her.

Well, thats a wrap. Love all of you my fans, and wish me a happy 21st birthday on Tuesday :)

Slacking already? Record time!

Hello there everyone! If you've read the subject line, you already know my grave admission: slacking on blog updates. The reason for this mostly comes from this: I was going to write a review post.

The archive lately has felt like . . . well . . . sort of depressing! I can't think of a good enough simile.

That's saying something. I like using the words like or as about as much as I enjoy divine ambrosia! So, yeah . . . sadness here. Since I'm finally gathering up the strength to make this post I suppose I may as well give weak, short reviews of this week's offerings that I've read. I intend to go back and read Touch of Frost, for the hope of seeing a glimmer of light in an otherwise depressingly barren landscape, but well . . . I'm expecting disappointment.

In no particular order:

Company Dress Code by Tamed Shrew
This is a first time effort, and as such, I was unencumbered by preconceived notions of quality. Okay, that's a lie. I was fully expecting suckitude. Does this surprise anyone? So I delved in and . . . well, at least it's not stroke. It reads like an outline, unsure where it should actually give details and what it wants to accomplish as a story. The author's note makes the unimpressive story following it seem all the more bland and glossable. It isn't good - but I admittedly have to say this about it: there was good intent and a good concept in there. Somewhere. It was just never even halfway developed. In a year, this writer may be worth reading if they decide to spend a little more time writing.

Meghan's Story by mike z.
mike is a friend of mine, so I'll admit that I'm more likely to go easy on a story of his . . . but nothing begs for me to go easy on it. It's lack of a humor tag makes me want to believe we set a precedent with our work "Go Team Porn". This piece is not quite so blatantly ridiculous, and is definitely better written. It seems to make fun of itself, it's reader, and it's surrounding stories in such a devil may care flippant . . . expressive way. It's a whimsical delight that shines as a beautiful example of parody, showing us that there are new things worth reading - even if they don't get you off.

Sweet Georgia Rule by NanoSlaver
NanoSlaver's "Bunny Tales" story struck me as very funny. It was a glimpse into MC from a different angle, and very cute. I don't recall any of the rest of his stories well besides Mistress - a story that's use of the name disappoints me. This story didn't disappoint me. It aggravated and annoyed me. I've lost a loved one before - and I've wanted revenge before, but this story didn't taste of it's plot at all. Motivation felt misused, the characters were one dimensional, and the device was pitiful. The heat was lacking. I hate it when a story disappoints me, because I WANT to enjoy stories. I sadly have standards that made this story send shudders of revulsion down my spine. Sigh. If NanoSlaver is not a male by the way, I apologize, but I would be very surprised.

So far that's all I've read. I gave a glazed pass over Mesmerr's new incestuous tale to see what a few friends mentioned as horrendous metaphor. Goddess. And I feel bad about my early work when I was fifteen . . . -sigh-

Will read Touch of Frost tomorrow. Hoping to like it. Temptation to write like Rorshack talks. Resiting. Failing. Deciding to end post. Hmm.

Also: Scribe and Shadow is finished sans editing. Look forward to it this weekend.

Best wishes,
~Madam K

p.s. I realize this review is overly snarky and very dispassionately nrk. I am kinda sick, and I am growing sick of dreck next to my porn. Sometime soon I plan to add something somewhere - here in this blog or on the main site - to showcase good MC stories everyone should read in this time of drought. Goddess 2008 needs some Trilby, Tabico, Thrall, Arclight, new writers with charming talent, J Darksong, Decker, and so many others . . . -sigh-

Scribe and Sickness

Well, I finished editing the second chapter of “Scribe and Shadow” before I realized I'd caught a stomach bug. I must have been sick yesterday, but I didn’t realize it until a frigid, rainy walk made it noticeable today. Most of this day was spent sleeping! No review post, in other words. “Humanity” (from the previous update) is the only non-MK story I intended to review, so you're not missing much. “Paradise” wasn’t entirely glowing, either, but MK is actually a decent writer with an editor who understands the difference between clauses and masturbation.

Small things like this, people. Small things like this.

Maybe some of the yellow and purple stories were good. I’ll glance at more colors in tomorrow’s update.

I realized while trying to fall asleep earlier that “Scribe and Shadow” has unusually slow pacing for an MK multi-chapter standalone. She isn't making an arc of this story. Chapter three must contain a cruelly sensible twist! I really hope so, at least, because the pacing really is slow and odd if things continue like this. Characters bonding and developing through well-written MC sessions is fine; characters doing that throughout the bulk of a story intended to relate their showdown with a major villainess is clunky.

She’ll probably finish chapter three before the middle of next week. I don't think she'll disappoint.

There were holes. Our lovely toddler of a Madam covered them up by constructing part of the shelf backwards.

~Valbot

Another unimpressive update, sigh

Hullo everyone!

Hope you all enjoyed Paradise, along with Scribe and Shadow! They're two different stories, showing just how different my style can be I think. Looking back stylistically Paradise feels like Rose Miracles minus the Marianna-like introduction with a dose heavier of purple - as in prose not EMCSA color codes. Big difference.

Scribe and Shadow is a fun one to write because I always love going into the head of different characters. Admittedly Yana feels a lot like Sarah which makes it feel safe, but I hope she doesn't sound too similar. They're quite different characters for flaws, passions, and what drives them.

That is one thing I worry a lot - I try to stress different vocabulary, uses of phrase, and just different voices for my characters . . . but in the end they all do have MY voice. I'm channeling them after all, and while I try to sound like different people sometimes it's hard. I need to start using a thesaurus more.

I know using a thesaurus just to force a character to use different words is strange - but learning new ones so that your characters talk different is a trick that I personally enjoy. Plus it broadens the vocab! But then you need to keep notes if you ever go back . . .

Some day I'll write a noncynical first person POV. That'll be new.

Well, I probably should explain the title. I don't really read colors beside Red unless the concept, author, and tags at least vaguely appeal. I also have many red authors I avoid.

Some of these red authors are avoided for being men writing lesbian fantasies. In some of those, you can practically tell which one of the women should have a dick.

Some of these red authors are avoided for having the literary skill of a mongoose. If I'm going to get off to a story, it needs to be a story, not just poorly written sex.

Some of them are avoided because they are only halfway there. That might sound rude, but allow me to explain: Make a peanut butter and banana sandwhich. Now remove the peanut butter. Tell someone you're making them the former sandwhich, then offer it to them. They will be very unhappy. Some writers simply can't follow through on their promises, and still don't realize they're missing ingredients. Some just can't understand tense, originality, or character voice.

Sara Castle does not hit on all of these flaws, but she is a name I dread to see on the update. When she was a new writer, I read her because she had promise. She wrote stories. She wrote FF, which was also a plus.

Then she got an editor, and joined a clique. Her work went so massively downhill, and lost all of the feeling of "this could/is improve(ing)" and became "wow, this is dreck*"

There is nothing worse than a good concept, almost good quality writing, and just... no follow through. A feeling of supreme disappointment. I know that even with editors - I still make mistakes, but I can get tense right. If someone's fault comes from editors, shouldn't she be able to do that? Maybe use commas appropriately?

So, suffice it to say, you will never see me reviewing a Sara Castle story unless something in the world massively changes.

Fuck do we need some Tabico in 2008.

Going back to writing on Scribe and Shadow chapter 2. Hope to get it done before Friday, start on Secret Origins Vol.1: Dust. Probably give it a better subtitle.

Suggestions welcome!

Till Wednesday, best wishes!
~Madam K

*=haha, valbot. Feel good. I used your favorite word.

Double Kistulotican Update!

Hello everyone!

I knew I said nothing of Saturday posts, but I assume you don't mind a little heads up that there will be not one, but two stories up this weekend? Oh well of course there will you say . . . but from me? Oh yes. Two.

Paradise can already be found in the one shot section of my website, but in addition a story taking place after Red Moon will be up! Just the first chapter, but still - it's definitely full of mc and yum.

This post was half for that, joy, and to say that from now on to specifically see my posts click on the "tag" or "label" of Madam Kistulot. To see my lovely editorial head's posts, click on the label valbot. Her posts will be more than worth reading, but this way you can read just mine or just hers if you're in one mood or the other. How nifty, huh?

Wishing for a happy update,
~MK

Welcome to the Kistublot

As the title of this entry says, this is the first entry in the Kistublot - here's to more to come!

Much more to come.

Basically, every one of these posts will be a little update of my writing - so far I'm planning to update once on Monday or Tuesday, Wednesday as a bonus update, and Thursday or Friday. Then I'll give my reviews/thoughts on the updates whenever they come up.

By updates of course, I mean www.mcstories.com, the one stop story shop for all of your erotic hypnosis story needs.

If you're on this site through my homepage and not through blogger, then odds are you actually found my page through Simon's author link on the EMCSA, and if that is the case, I'm being redundant. Hooray!

So far this weak I've been working on a story that happens a month or two after Red Moon Rising, and I think it's turning out well. If I can finish the rest of the rough draft tonight... get the Editorial Department to give their first sweep tonight/tomorrow, edit it, then get it back to the head of the Editorial department, finish it up . . . I should be able to have it all pretty and ready for Sunday.

In other news, I have a new story that should be up on the site later today! Paradise, a tale of erotic bliss. Obviously hypnotic since it is a story I'm writing.

Hopefully you'll all get as much of a kick out of it as I did writing it.

Soon my podcasts for Silver Girl will be done - I fully intend to finish up To Serve and Obey's tonight, which will then only leave us with Red Moon and an Overview. After that, it's on to other news, eh?

Well, that's all for now my loyal readers! Best wishes to you all.
