Two Hundred Dollars E-book
Enjoy, Patrons!Thank you for your generosity and support while I produced this work.It's been a great journey and I've been glad to see so much patronage, especially from Christopher, who has been with me for the whole year.Cheers,Xavier.P.S. You'll have to let me know how the Kindle format looks, since I c...
Copies of the E-book going out
You should shortly receive a copy of the e-book in your inbox, assuming Patreon shows your donation amount as $3 or more.As people cross that threshold, I'll send out a new round of emails.I'm not sure what I'll do going forward. I could switch the account over to one of those "pay up front" type ac...
Also, in regards to the Bonus Chapter
You've all got three days to guess where it fits in.I will give the following hints:a) it's ridiculousb) it fits inside the present story (not before nor after)c) there's room for it without ret-conning anythingCheers,Xavier.
New Tier!
I'm thinking this might be the best way to distribute the e-book.Patreon isn't really set up for "everyone who has ever given at least three dollars" can have certain access. It only works in Tiers. So, unless we can come up with a better way to distribute the e-book with its bits of bonus material, I&#...
A small note about Two Hundred Dollars
I set out, when writing this story, with two major goals (besides, you know, making an erotic, funny story about spanking).1. Use the term vulva correctly in erotic fiction (19 times!)2. Focus on consentThis whole thing takes place in a tiny world where three people understand consent, where they trust each other, and ...
Bonus material for e-book
- Bailey's journal- Bonus chapter (neither sequel nor prequel, but rather an interregnum)- Clothing lists and other tablesI have a lot of stuff in a background file, but it's mostly useless notes and random thoughts, even things I didn't use.
Two Hundred Dollars: Ch. 29
All good things, my friends, must come to an end.Bailey counts down the last of her debt and she and Kent must come to terms with the third member of their trio.
Chapter 28 (not 29, oops) is pretty popular.
Glad to see this chapter is being taken so well.
THD: The eventual e-book
As mentioned before, thanks to the patronage of everyone here, I have a license for Scrivener and can publish my work.My intention is to use Scrivener to produce Two Hundred Dollars as an e-book. I'll release it through Patreon to any of my Patrons who have donated above a certain level (probably about three dollar...
Two Hundred Dollars: Ch 28
At long last.This one felt about double length and, as we're getting close to the end, Bae and I spent a lot of time going over to make sure it all clicked nicely.We're running the debt almost down to zero, Kent meets Laura's parents, a new game is introduced and, my god, a lot of spanking.
Chapter 28 is coming soon
Seriously.It's just twice as long as all the other chapters, and a lot happens.I haven't forgotten. I'm still working on it.Cheers,Xavier.
Two Hundred Dollars: Ch 27
Laura and Bailey, caught in a lie, are required to do something special together, by way of apology.After that, it becomes a question of competition in terms of, shall we say, 'exposure'.
Two Hundred Dollars Ch. 26
Bailey wants to find a method of payment with a lot less spanking involved, but she won't cross certain lines.Kent has a proposal.Also: Deception! Oh noes!
Two Hundred Dollars: one appendix
If you've ever wondered, "How does he keep track of all this crap?"It's a lot of tables in LibreOffice, to be honest, otherwise I'd be toast.Maybe you can all read this one.
Two Hundred Dollars. Ch. 25
Bailey, bereft of Laura, begins her mad rush for the end.(Version 2, with the correct statement of debt at the end. Thanks, Mark!)
Thank you all: Scrivener
The next step in my fictional career should lay somewhere in the slightly more professional publishing realm.To that end, with your contributions, I've acquired a copy of Scrivener and am learning how to use it. It looks pretty powerful for editing and keeping tracking of characters. This will be way, way handier i...
Two Hundred Dollars Ch. 24
Wherein the characters adopt a fascination with photography and the artistic side of nudity and spanking.The question is, how close to prostitution is it to sell pictures of your naked body? Is it closer or farther away than spanking your debt away?Time will tell.Also, a treatise on the subject of good and bad, good an...
Two Hundred Dollars: Chapter 23
And Laura wakes up with a boy in her bed.We find out how that works out for her and her apron.
Coming Soon!
Chapter 23 is in the final proofreading stage.Sorry for the delay but we've been dealing with a lot of stuff here lately.I should have it posted tomorrow.
Two Hundred Dollar: Ch 22
#SpatulaQueenIn which cupcakes are baked and an evening at Laura's is completed.
Two Hundred Dollars: Chapter 21
In which every wishes Bailey hadn't done the thing she did, but she kind of had to, because Reasons.(This one took a while longer in proofreading on account of its length.)
Two Hundred Dollars, Ch. 20
In which Bailey is deeply concerned about her inability to remove her clothes and takes measures to move herself along.
Two Hundred Dollars Ch. 19
This time around, with certain debts resolved and feelings cleared up - to an extent - the girls feel a bit more free to give flight to their own sense of generosity.
Two Hundred Dollars. Ch. 18
In which there is a degree of nervous exhibition and plans are laid for the next step in Laura's adventure.
Milestone and "Scrivener"
So, I just hit two milestones, really.1. 20 Patrons. Thanks for your support. It really means something that my work is worth your donation.2. I hit the minimum amount of money in the account to make a withdrawal worthwhile. I could actually use the money to do something.ScrivenerIt's an app that helps you develop ...
Two Hundred Dollars Ch. 17
Hey, did you notice it's an acronym now?That's right. You're all fans of THD, right?In Chapter 17, we have a little scene with Laura by herself, and Bailey sets a new goal with regards to paying off her debt. It's going to mean pushing herself a little harder, but that's how goals work. To get there...
Laura's Inner Preacher
I got some feedback from a couple of readers (it means a lot when two of you agree on something) that I overdid the "preacher voice" inside Laura's head. Especially with the bolded text and the repetitive nature of his imprecations.In the future, I'll clean that up, although this voice in her head doesn...
Two Hundred Dollars Ch. 16
Chapter 16 is here, taking off from where the chapter in which Laura had spanked Bailey.It looks like the round trip approval time on Literotica has hit 11 days, so my patrons are getting a good head start on the good stuff.Cheers,Xav.
Two Hundred Dollars Ch. 15
This chapter is the first one in which we see the inside of Laura's head.We get to hear her internal dialogue (not monologue... dialogue) and get a bit of her background and her motivations. We find out how she got to the point where she wrote "$2" on Kent's white board and exactly what she meant to hap...
Coming soon, Chapter 15
Just a head's up.We're finally going to take a look inside Laura's head and see what's going on in there.I've never tried to right a semi-rehash chapter with a different point of view, and since it overlaps with the end of Chapter 14, I basically had to hold up 14 until I was sure it lined up with 1...
