Thank you again to Mark45 for having this commissioned and for allowing me to share it here. The artist is Marco Marco and can be found on twitter as @hiradeira.
Nurse Honey is suspiciously coquettish here. I suspect someone is about to get in too deep.
Continuing my Q'n'As to get material for a behind-scenes section for each collection. This time we're on to "A Succubus for Halloween". So if you have any questions about any of the stories or characters from that collection (or anything in general), fire away below.

12) Serving the Earth Mother*
13) A Halloween Party with a Succubus*
* exclusive to this collection.
After a quiet period, I'm currently trying to catch up with House of Hellish Harlot releases. I'm hoping to finally start getting the collections back up on Amazon again early April.
As I said in a previous post, to mark the rerelease of my ebook short story collections I want to add a section at the end with behind-the-scenes notes. So, if you have any questions about story/characters/inspiration, fire away below. It'll likely be something I hadn't considered and would therefore be good to add in that section.
Today we'll be looking at "A Succubus for Valentine's Day".
Here is the running order for that collection:
1) A Succubus for Valentine's Day
2) Initial Infiltration
3) The Succubus Heart Squad**
4) Puffed Up*
5) The Spiders of Thomisoidus*
6) Delivery Special Soap
7) Knight vs Succubus
8) Interrocution
9) Crushed Between Her Breasts
10) Venus of the Red Lights
11) The Soul Worm
12) Foam Shower*
13) A Summer Dance with a Succubus
* Exclusive to this collection
** This was the 1st chapter of Succubus Summoning 101 in the original collection. Back then there was a minor gold rush of people rushing to self publish on Amazon's kindle platform and some less scrupulous people were ripping stories off places like Literotica to publish under their own name. I'd already had someone try to swipe the Succubus Summoning series a year earlier for a smaller fan-writing site, so included the 1st chapter of SS101 in this collection (which was originally written as a standalone short story) as a form of pre-emptive copyright protection. Now that Succubus Summoning 101 exists as its own book, that isn't necessary, so I'm planning to replace it with the appropriately Valentine's Day themed "The Succubus Heart Squad".
Fire away with questions below. I did get distracted for a while at the start of the year, but I am hoping to get these collections back up on Amazon ASAP.
Despite getting distracted by various things, I still want to get those old short story collections back up for sale again.
One thing I wanted to add was a little segment at the back detailing the inspiration behind the stories. Writing them (or rather rewriting them as I wrote some for Christmas and Valentine's Day a while back) did unfortunately lock me up last month and is part of the reason why I've been a little quiet recently. It's usually the non-fiction that locks me up, for some reason. It's why I stopped blogging on almost anything other than documenting recent releases.
In this case I wasn't happy. What I was writing felt self-indulgent. I know I'm only trying to emulate what I've read in other horror short collections/anthologies, but let's face it, I'm not Stephen King and a previous publication history of "I uploaded them to Literotica" is not as interesting as a list of dates and original magazines the stories were published.
I think it might be better to use this segment to answer questions people might have on the inspiration for the characters and story, or to clarify things I intentionally left vague and cryptic.
Starting up is "A Succubus for Christmas", which has this line-up:
1) A Succubus for Christmas
2) The Masterton Covenant
3) Bubble Bath
4) Flesh Pitchers of Prague
5) Hookah'ed
6) Pool of the Undine
7) Slayer vs Succubus
8) Arachne's Web*
9) Wrapdance
10) The Coils of Aenictia
11) Squeezed
12) Happy Ending
13) Incall with a Succubus
*exclusive to the collection
If you've read the stories before and have any burning questions on them, fire away below.
That might be a little more interesting for me to write about than "I was inspired by a monster girl picture I saw on the internet and uploaded the story to Literotica on [insert date here]".
