Dark Elves V: DiscoveryNow available

BLURB

To Kinig, the dark elves represented everything wonderful and mysterious in the world. If he could become the expert about the elves, his bardic career would be set. It would be dangerous. The elves were known for their dislike of human males. But times had changed and his request to live among the elves for a time was granted, and Kinig was given into the care of Fallil, a bard among the elves.

Fallil didn’t expect to fall in love, but he did. What began as friendship grew into love, and abiding passion. But Fallil knew he had to let Kinig go fulfill his dreams if the two were ever to be truly happy.

Nine cycles of seasons later, Kinig has realized his dreams of fame and is known over two continents as Kinig of the Dark Elves, the one human who knows as much as the raedjour themselves. Now, his thoughts stray back to the man he loves and it is time to return to the Dark Forest.

It’s Kinig’s knowledge that brings him to the attention of a solitary mage who holds the last red elf in his thrall. The red elf, Nialdlye comes to care for Kinig and sees in his stories a possible solution for her own problems. Can the two together break free of the mage’s power and make their way back to Fallil?

POLL: Heaven Sent - Gretchen

Time for a little bit of fun.

If you’ve read the Heaven Sent books, then you’re familiar with Gretchen Hobbes, their manager. Personally, I rather like Gretchen. I mean, she keeps those boys in line, she’s got to be something, right? Well, I’ve got an idea for a romance for her. But since the series is yaoi…

So how about a poll (and this gives me a chance to play with a new widget too :D). It’s open until the end of the month. FYI, it may or may not influence if I write the story or not. I’m just curious.

BTW, if you’re not logged into the site, I don’t know who you are or how you voted so no worries if you don’t want me to know how you voted ;)

Sorry, there are no polls available at the moment.

Feel free to leave a comment if you’d like to elaborate on your answer.

EXCERPT: Dark Elves V: Discovery

For those who’ve been waiting for an m/m relationship in the elves’ world, your wait is over. It’s not ALL m/m, but Kinig, the main character, is gay. It’s not ALL m/m, but there’s a healthy portion of it.

Rhicard knocked, and the door was opened by a youth. Kinig caught his breath. Yes, all of the elves were stunning, but this one… He stood perhaps a hand shorter than Kinig, with a rounder face than any of the others Kinig had encountered. Not round by human standards, but a softness of curves that gave him a young, vaguely feminine look. Expressive silver eyes twinkled under finely arched white brows, assessing Kinig even as he was assessed. The frank look forced Kinig to reevaluate his initial impression of youth. The thick white silk of his hair was unbound, falling heavily down his bare back and over one shoulder, tucked behind delicately pointed ears, both of which were pierced with silver all along the edge to the tip. Short white trousers were gathered just below his knees and tied low at his hips. No footwear to hide at least three sparkling silver rings around delicate toes. Kinig had never beheld another male wearing so much jewelry. (more…)

Not quite as excited at the moment as the t-shirt announcement, but I felt the need to put Yaoicon in my calendar.

I’ll be there, along with a lot of other m/m favorites. JL Langley, Laura Baumbach, Ally Blue, LM Prieto, Kimberly Gardner, Jade Buchanan & James Buchanan that I know of.

Website Changes

Some major changes have happed to my website. One you may see, one you may not.

Computerotika.com and jetmykles.com have been mirrored for awhile with computerotika.com being the main site. I’ve now switched them around. For most of you, that won’t make one whit of difference, but you may want to update your bookmarks.

The old gallery no longer works. I’m going to try some redirection, but basically it was getting full of spam and I couldn’t handle it any longer. But the images are all still here and even easier to get to. Click the Images page above. It now has subpages to show the images in my WordPress software itself. Should be much easier for us all (I hope).

Any other changes should be minor but there probably are a few other things I did. If you see anything really amiss, let me know.

Read on if you’re curious about detail on why I made the switch. If you’re not interested in the technical stuff, stop here. (more…)
