We all have new reviews from @Thundercloud! Thanks! I wanted the initial approach to the house to slowly build a vaguely creepy atmosphere. Are there jorōgumo in Inuyasha, or is it just the mention of yōkai in general? I’m so glad that worked out. I had a lot of fun writing the initial segment where it’s dark and Yua is just this creepy voice from the darkness, and we know something is moving around up there, but we can’t see her. As for the sexy part, I’d never written any bondage before, so it was kind of tough to do. BDSM often involves some level of physical pain, but I figured that while Cody is submissive, he is not a masochist, and in fact if Yua caused him any real pain it might bring up bad memories of the house he came from, so the closest I got to pain was that little prickling thing she does with her claws. Out of curiosity, what did you mean about the plot twist at the end? As for more like this, there is another story that features Yua and Cody called Parlor Games, but that doesn’t have any sex in it. There is eventually going to be a considerably bigger story with these two where we find out how they met, and as I’ll be shooting for erotic horror/dark romance there, that one will have sexual content.

Re: “May’s Family” From Lady Freelove on November 28, 2019 Thank you! I had been thinking – and hoping – that you might like this one, since it takes a similar “family history” approach to the one you use in your stories.

Your ball-pit story sounds like more fun than mine. A fictionalized account of it might make for a good short story. Just throwing that out there.

Re: “The Ball Pit” From The World's Concubine on November 27, 2019 After reading Lady Freelove’s initial review, I was a bit stunned that she would recommend this story to you (or anyone). Oh, my. Well, I’m pretty sure most of them are alien-free. Thanks! And sorry for the trauma.

Mal, I’m very impressed with the massive body of work that you’ve done, all without financial motive. Those numbers are impressive and you should feel very proud. Congrats again on crossing 200,000 dragon prints. Thing is, I believe if someone views more than one chapter at a time, it still only counts as one print. So really, your chapters probably have even more views in total. You keep the story fresh and surprising, appealing to a very wide variety of tastes. From the rougher crowd to the more traditional drama and romance readers, you give everyone a little taste of what they like most. And again, nothing stops someone from just reading a chapter once for plot and then never coming back to it. I’m very excited to see what you have in store for us, both in BDH and in the book you’re writing. Thank you and please keep up the great work.

From JayDee on October 31, 2019 Day of the Deadly by George Glass You could have even waited until November 1st. I've been doing lessons on Duolingo. I tried not to overdo it with the Spanish, though; a little adds flavor, but too much seems pretentious. That's really what I was going for. I did a little research. Now that Dia de Muertos is a national holiday in Mexico, everybody there celebrates it to some extent, but it seems to be the southerners who originated it. Thanks! I've seen ofrendas that included cans or bottles of the departed's favorite beverage, and when I first began to conceive of this story, Graciela chugging one was the first image that came into my head. I figured Fish couldn't just be a total mustache-twirler; he had to have a little humanity to him. Enrique is used to doing things that way. Actual Mexican Marines who do anti-drug ops wear masks so the cartel types won't know who they are and have their families killed. Thank you! Cunnilingus isn't my strongest subject, so it's gratifying to hear that. I do believe we did. *takes the others’ hands and bows*
