I am nearly finished with the first chapter of the new series. It will NOT be on nifty since it is a very innocent boy meets boy teen story with lots of drama and no sex... yet.
I will post it on Wattpad when it's ready. I feel like it's the next step in making some real lit instead of just interesting porn. I'm so excited for this!
You can follow me on Wattpad if you want to see, but nothing is published yet.
I made a cover for it:
I like the black and white of it with the burst of pride but hidden on the bottom of the shoe. It's definitely not going to be one of those stories where characters struggle much with their sexuality. I can't stand when books do that and then devote eight pages to characters discussing why we even have labels. Just shut up and love someone.
But yes there will be a middle eastern guy, because that's what I write :) Well he's half Saudi.
Here's the story description, but it's not published yet:
Looks fantastic. Looking forward to reading it.
ReplyDeleteChapters 1 & 2 are up! https://www.wattpad.com/story/192524019-hayden%27s-shelter
DeleteLoved it! You’re great with details. So I could say more (all good) but I don’t want to ruin it for anyone who hasn’t read it yet. But nice job!
DeleteThank you! :)
DeleteOMG EMRI! I Loved it!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! :) I like the shorter, simpler chapters without the dirty bits. :)
DeleteI’m hooked. Can’t wait to see what happens next. Already attached to the characters too. And the pictures are a nice touch, much prettier than Nifty allows.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think we would recognize your work without the Middle Eastern touch. Don’t change for anyone. Always be Emri:)
Thank you! I am happy people are responding to it. :)
DeleteI love the first 2 chapters!! A Saudi dad? You've hit my weakness and I know first hand about someone disappearing back into the Kingdom as you well know. I can't wait to read more.
ReplyDeleteOh I didn't think about that. Wow yeah! seriously.
DeleteWe sent messages at the same time. Please check and respond. I have some more to tell you. 😁
Delete6am here and I just read Chapter 3. Z is headed off to work and I am headed to the shower and begin my studies for the day.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the nice wake up gift.
Thank you for reading it! I like this series without having to worry about the sex stuff.
DeleteJust curious because of your comments. Is it difficult to write the sex stuff? Or just boring? I’ve read some borderline stuff on Wattpad but I assume it’s not allowed. I don’t know that I’ll miss it because the story is so good on its own but I wondered why you like it best without it.
ReplyDeleteThe sex stuff is just like writing a whole separate story within the story. I quickly sketch out what happens then go back and put in details and then I have to remember how they are positioned because I don't get to sit and write it in one straight shot so sometimes it is three days later and they are still intertwined in an awkward place! :) Wattpad allows it, but most stories there are lighter and more mainstream. It's not designed for heavy stuff and you have to mark stories as mature.
DeleteThat’s funny. Your characters are waiting on you so they can finish;)
Deletea very good start!!! I hope you do this story as well as you have done your others in the past. If you keep putting this story on wattpad then my child well love you, for it gives me and her a place to chit chat.
ReplyDeleteThanks Emri,
Jen
Thank you!! That is exactly what I was hoping for, something with a more mainstream audience. :)
DeleteNice book cover. Different from what is out there in Whattpad. I am just catching up with your blog. I was absent for this whole year. I’ve been finding interesting books in Whattpad. I am glad you are trying other platforms. Although my preference is Literotica when it comes to navigating the website. Simple, easy, no ads, and great authors. That’s where I found you. Emerson was my first ever story there.
