Easter Miracle coming shortly - now taken down
Update: I took the preview down April 9, 2025, at 5pm Pacific time. The pre-order is upon Amazon for 99 cents, for release Saturday, April 12. -----I'm waiting for final edit to be completed, but I will have the Patreon exclusive preview of Easter Miracle, with the first published tease of the new cover design, very soon.If you're not on a paying tier, either subscribe at the $3 level or h...
An easter egg coming soon
I'm back with an update as we're almost to the end of March.You probably noticed that Accidental Monarch and Man of Miracles have not come out yet. That's because they have not. They are both in the works, but Accidental Monarch (the follow-on to Majesty of Defeat) picked up a couple of story lines or paths that have to get cleared up, and Man of Miracles (the second succubus story aft...
Heading into March strong
Two months down, ten to go.In February, we saw Sex and Taxes, Marisa: A Springtime Escape, and The Road Homereleased. Marisa is a standalone story, but the other two should see more to the story in the coming months.The Mendocino Series finished out in January on top of those, along with the popular Majesty of Defeat tale (also with a sequel coming).My priorities in March are:An Accidental Monarch...
What's coming for March and beyond
With my February publication schedule completed, I'm looking forward to the next month or two. The poll from last month wasn't conclusive on the novel projects, so I'm going to see which flows better toward its completion. I'm thinking it will be the 2000-years-into-the-future story, perhaps as a two-parter, but I'll figure that out as I go.I have sequels to Brenda Marie, Sex a...
A word about membership
Hi folks. I'm going to be posting more here in the coming months, with most of the posts member-locked. While I'd love to have your financial support at the $3, $5, or $10 levels, there is a free member option that will get you a lot of the member-locked posts (but not Patreon-exclusive stories or most early-access chapters). I'd invite you to join at that level if you'd like to ke...
Big projects in the works - what interests you?
I posted this on my channel on the RFM Discord, but you can answer here if you prefer.I have three long-form stories (one might even call them "novels" that are substantially started. I plan to finish all three, but I'd like to know what my readers would find most interesting. The poll is below the mini-blurbs."Dragonspire" (58k): a vacation rental scheduling mixup turned slow-...
The Road Home is coming soon - here's a teaser
In this scene, Ray has just driven from Illinois to California to comfort his recent lover Donna's daughter April. She's headed off to work soon after he arrived, so he goes to see Donna. -----I walked back to the back half of the house where Donna’s room was.Her door was open, and I saw steam on the shower door across the hall. Looked too fresh for April’s shower, so I figured Donna w...
Members-Only Story: Pilgrimage, a cursed cougar tale
As promised, this is the first of what I plan to be a quarterly series of exclusive content for my patrons. My goal is to share something every quarter, and keep it exclusive here at least for 3 months, if not longer. Last summer I stayed in a hotel with an interesting bar. This story is based on that bar, but the cougar and the accursed are completely synthetic.The blonde cougar invited me back t...
Members-Only teaser for Sex and Taxes (no jacket required)
Chapter one: Audited by a succubusBanda sat uncomfortably in the office chair. He wasn‘t used to being intimidated by anyone, just because he didn’t really care that much about what other people thought. But as he sat on the far end of a huge hardwood desk, feeling a bit of hard wood himself, with two binders and a stack of folders containing the details of his finances for the last five years...
Another update for February - two more stories coming soon!
Updates from my last post, with relevant images:3. I also mostly-finished a story about a hot long-weekend "relationship" that takes a "couple" who click as very intense friends to an even more intense level. It's a slice-of-life type story, no real drama, a lot of orgasms in a short-term romantic context.I believe I finished this 12k word standalone story, although the title i...
What's ahead for February (and beyond)
I've had some good feedback and a review for Majesty of Defeat, which inspires me to lean into the second volume of this series. I'm aiming to have it out by the end of February at this point. As for what's coming in February and March:1. I have a short story called Pilgrimage, that's only about 2500 words even covering the lifetime of a 7 year curse. That will be exclusive for pay...
Majesty of Defeat is live on Amazon now
[crosspost from marklinfoster.com] In December 2024, I took a side trip into the late middle ages, in a way. A young adventurer trying to find his way in the world. An able-bodied virgin queen seeking a consort. A random battle that joined their bodies and their fortunes for life.That story turned into Majesty of Defeat, which is now live on Kindle Unlimited and Amazon Kindle. It's a 27,000 wo...
The second Majesty book is coming
I finished and polished Majesty of Defeat recently, finding a wrapping point around 28,000 words and having found unexpected paths from what was going to be a standalone story. It's a blessing and a curse, of course. The second volume is tentatively called Majesty of Reform, although I am not sure I like that title enough to stick with it. I am about 3,200 words into Reform though, and once De...
The Mendocino Series comes to a close in "Going Home"
In December 2023, I posted "Tracey Rose," an intended standalone short about a pair of former lovers who reconnected. A month or so later, "Renee Tilden: Expresso Love" came out, and as I'd written it in December into January, Tracey showed up, and the story took a twist. Almost a month later, "Wherever I Go" followed.And then my writing worked its way into many other s...
Majesty of Defeat is coming
A week ago I posted a teaser from Majesty of Defeat, a story I wrote last month about a young man who sets off to find his way in the world, and a young woman with the weight of a nation on her supple shoulders. It was mostly written in about 8 days in December. It's about ready to go into final edit, and final cover work, now that I got over the last hurdle. Oddly enough, it wasn't a sex ...

The Forfeit - a teaser from Majesty of Defeat
Last month I started, and mostly finished, a medieval-ish novella (my first story set before roughly present days).A wandering young fighter happened upon what seemed like a casual ad-hoc battle game of some sort. Hoping to make his name, or at least his living, in the world outside his hometown, he took a challenge here. And he did better than he expected.But Davian of West Fork has defeated some...
Welcome to Marklin Foster's universe
Just over a year ago, I put my first public work out into the world. Brewing Up Desirewas a story I wrote almost ten years ago and even designed a cover for, with licensed stock art, and let sit in a folder for a few years. (It's the only story I don't have on Kindle Unlimited, and unless you're a big fan of sexy baristas and the Clover machine, I wouldn't bother with it.)I followe...
