The ASSTR Collected Works of Elf M. Sternberg Original collection at: http://www.drizzle.com/~elf Welcome to my ASSTR Archive, where I hope you'll be introduced to most of the writing I've done in the past decade. The stories fall into one of three series, so you might as well be introduced to them: The Journal Entries of Kennet R'yal Shardik (and others) and related tales: Set in our universe (more or less), this is a science-fiction series that covers the entire range of human sexuality: straight, gay, bisexual, tender and romantic, heavy and sadomasochistic, and everything in between. There are robots and spaceships and aliens doing, well, alien things. There's even tentacle sex in here, somewhere. The Journal Entries are heavily influenced by everything from anime and romance novels to hardcore lesbian porn. One thing I've noticed from the logs: the most popular story seems to be "Frustration Is a 13 Year Old Girl," which, I should warn you now, is a hard adult gay fuck scene. It's not that I don't write the kind of stuff you may have been looking for, it's just that the title is no indicator of the content. Aimee' A fantasy novel in a universe of humans, dragon, and centaurs (and yes, there are elves and so forth, but we'll keep quiet about them until some later series), Aimee' follows the adventures of a young slave girl as her cruel master sends her to learn to better please him, and her teachers-- a gay mage and an aging prostitute-- teach her instead how to defend herself and escape her bondage. Bloody Beth My NaNoWriMo (http://www.nanowrimo.org) offering for 2001, Bloody Beth is best described as a "steamy lesbian pirate romance novel," set in Jamaica in the seventeeth century. Follow Beth as she seeks vengeance against the governor of Jamaica for her family's murder and finds love in the arms of two lusty and beautiful women.
