The first date continues! Oh my.
If you haven't been following along, Shadowboxing is an M/M novella featuring Asher, a talkative yet romantically shy fella with cerebral palsy, and Roy, an occasionally not-so-gentle giant who has a stutter and rescued Asher from a sticky situation at the beginning of the story. In this chapter, they're headed to Asher's place to continue getting to know each other.

Update to Baby Crazy
So after a comment last week, I went through the chapter I had already written, and tried to inject a little more "devviness". You can let me know how successful I was.
In the last scene, Anna stormed up the stairs when Matt suggested making a baby. Will he follow? Can he?

Thanks so much to everyone for all the love for the boys so far. :) I'm so very appreciative of the community and enthusiasm.
Here's the next chapter of Shadowboxing, featuring the agony of "will he/won't he text back," and a sketch of Asher:

Hi everyone, I'm back! This every other week posting schedule is a lot more manageable for me. Hopefully this will allow me to keep updating regularly rather than going on a long hiatus.

Update to Baby Crazy
Thank you for all your comments last week! I wasn't sure about this story because romance usually involves boy meets girl kind of stuff, not two married people thinking about having a baby. That said, I struggled a little with whether to post Anna's chapter here, because I wanted to dive right into the nitty gritty stuff. But it's sort of important to her character development? I don't know! Anyway, I hope you enjoy it! Love feedback!

Update: Lobster, With A Straw
Hi guys, I'm so happy to write this update because I can finally show you this absolutely incredible, amazing drawing by Rowan that I love to pieces and also find soooo freaking devy... =) Thanks again, Rowan, it still blows my mind!
For everyone who is curious to know how Lauren and Patrick's evening continues: Here's Chapter 4! And because I wanted to give Rowan's drawing a proper place I made a Table Of Content.
Hugs,
Lovis

Update: Shadowboxing
Thanks so much to all for last week's warm reception - it's been giving me that happy glow all week. Here's the next chapter of Shadowboxing, in which Asher receives an intriguing revelation about Roy.
Chapter 2: At the Bus Stop
And here's Chapter 1 in case you missed it.
The next few chapters will be almost twice as long, so this week's briefer chapter includes a bonus sketch of Roy - since nothing says self-indulgence to me like making time to draw my already self-indulgent characters. :)

New Devo Diary
Hey everyone, Devo Diary is back! I'm still not sure if I can keep up with the pace of posting every week, but I have a new chapter and I wanted to share it right away, before you all forget what was in the previous chapters.
In case you did forget, at this point I'm singing in an opera where I get to dress as a fairy, and getting more and more into the SM scene with my friends from the opera, Lulu and Marty. Sarah is my red-haired friend from grad school, kind of moody and insecure. The guys I'm seeing are Atom the Archaeologist (a sexy but pretentious hipster who likes to be pegged), Brenno the Baritone (a friend with benefits who's about to move to Italy for work), Warren (the IT nerd who's very active in the SM scene), and of course The Mantis, the sexy submissive para.
In this chapter, yet another AB guy asks me out, but don't worry, there is still more of the Mantis. He's not going to disappear anytime soon :)
Devo Diary Chapter 38: William, part 1
So with this chapter I'm going to switch to posting every other week. There seem to be some other days free so if any authors want to jump in, please leave Monday to me for now. If the other days get filled up I'm willing to alternate but only if we work out the details in advance and the other days are taken. Thanks!

New story: Baby Crazy
Hi all! I'm back with a brand new story, called Baby Crazy.
I noticed there hasn't been one story on the blog that deals with a wheeler who is trying to make a baby or dealing with parenthood (or impending parenthood). So that's the focus of this story. Hope you enjoy! Please let me know your thoughts!!!

Reasons not to ever have children
1. I am 36 years old, which is
considered advanced maternal age, which means my risk of complications both for
myself and my unborn child is significantly increased.
2. The lifetime cost of raising a
child is a quarter of a million dollars.
3. I would have to change diapers.
4. While I would of course properly
clean my hands after changing the child’s diapers, I could not guarantee anyone
else (such as my parents) would do so, which means people with hands contaminated
with fecal matter would be in my home. I
suppose I could ask them to leave immediately after changing a diaper, although
this seems like the sort of thing my husband Matt says does not endear me to
people.
5. We have 36 light sockets in my
house, all of which would be a terrible opportunity for the baby to be
electrocuted. Yes, we would use socket
protectors, but I suspect any child of mine would be intelligent enough to
easily circumvent such a precaution.
6. The baby might vomit. And then we’d have to have the entire house
sterilized.
7. The amount of time I would lose
from work for both the labor itself and the subsequent maternity leave, not to
mention any time I would need to be absent for the child being sick, would
seriously jeopardize my career and chances of promotion.
8. What if the baby tried to eat a
banana and choked on it?
9. What if the baby tried to eat a
grape and choked on it?
10. What if while I was driving in
the car, the baby managed to open its car seat, and then I got into an accident
while the baby was out of the car seat?
11. What if the baby doesn’t like
me? After all, most people don’t.
Reasons to have children:
1. I am beginning to think my
husband wants one.

The final chapter of "Christmas Crush" is here!
So sorry for taking so long to publish it. I hope it was worth the wait.
Chapter 5
As I've said before I do have plans for a sequel, the storyline is outlined roughly, but I want to wrap up the unfinished stories I have on the site before I starte writing and publishing that.

New author, new story: Shadowboxing
Hello Paradevo folks -
Longtime reader, frequent anony-commenter, and first-time author here! I'm nervous and excited to share the first chapter of "Shadowboxing" with you, a moody M/M story. "Shadowboxing" will update on Wednesdays.
Paradevo was close to life-saving for me, when it came to rehabilitating my self-image and making me feel less alone and dysfunctional. So I thank you all deeply for the community that you have provided. I hope you enjoy the story.
