State of the Polly: Aug 2026
It’s been a weird year for any number of reasons, but after not having anything new out in the first half, I’m set up to have a busy finish.
Wicked Little Miracles is out, a collection of stories from Exceptional Erotica, including my “Fuck the Rich.” (not technically new, but seems to be finding a wider audience)
Summer Teases 3 is out on August 3rd! This is my …4th? time appearing in an anthology with the Erotica Consortium/Erotic Celebrations team, and my first time coordinating one. A fantastic, if hair-raising, learning experience already, and I still need to format the print edition. (Was I trying to submit fixes to a handful of typos THREE SECONDS before Amazon locked the pre-order file? Mum’s the word.) My entry “Atomic Summer” has me up to my usual shenanigans, homage to campy/pulpy films of yesteryear, hot threesome with a telepath, anxiety about LLMs, you know the drill.
Absolute Filth: When You Only Have Time for the Good Stuff volume 1 is out on August 10th! And Volume 2 is out October 12th! These are edited by Olivia Lawless and Christian Pan from EC, and the focus is high-heat stories that cut to the chase. “Bank Job” appears in volume 1 (More group sex, no telepathy. Just a smidge of anti-capitalism, you know, for spice) and my entry for the second, BDSM-themed volume, is called “Erotic Re-direction and Training Services.” There just MAY be more volumes in this series TBA too… 👀
I just signed the contract, and the book is announced, so I think I can tease my appearance in Christian’s “Best Bi Erotica of the Year Volume 3”, which will be out September 23rd for Bi Visibility day! “Touchy Negotiations” is about a corporate headhunting trip that goes into territory the head of human resources should not approve… let alone participate in. You can catch up with volumes 1 and 2 in the meantime.
And there are still more projects I can’t talk about quite yet, including 2 winter seasonal stories, something fairy-tale-ish, and of course, a spooky little treat.
Can talk about but on the back burner for now: My very gay portal fantasy novella, “The Artificer, the Roué, & the Demon”; the horny clone book.
