Holly-ween

I know that I mentioned in one of the Welcome to College books, that when Nicole and I moved in together, I was so terrified that the girls would force us to do to our apartment what they did to my dorm room, that I convinced Nicole, that the best shot we had was to feminize the place ourselves and beat them to the punch.  This was one of the few times that we got the best of our tormentresses, if you want to call it coming out on top.  One touch that we had was a very large print of Audrey Hepburn from Breakfast at Tiffany's.   It was undeniably feminine, but I was sure that it saved us from staring at Justin Timberlake or some male body builder.

I just finished doing my makeup for a Halloween party.  Appropriately enough, I am dressing as Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's.   There is an equally feminine costume on the way tomorrow.  I can't complain.  It is fun to be dressing again, especially under the circumstances. 

Halloween Humiliation Sale

With Halloween just over an hour away, I wanted to make everybody aware that for one day only Halloween Humiliation will be on sale at Amazon.com.    If you haven't bought it yet, get it at a great price (Which I can't remember because I set the sale up two weeks ago).

Since taking a job at Merriwell and Associates, Andrea has never felt accepted. It doesn't help that the two other guys in the sales department have alienated the whole office with their boorish behavior and overbearing personalities.
When Andrea discovers that Tracy and Kelly have begun feminizing one of the loudmouthed salesmen, she decides to give the other one the same treatment. Using trickery, seduction, blackmail, bondage, and an old fashioned ass kicking, Andrea forcibly feminizes her coworker just in time for the office Halloween party.
Will the women of the office finally put these two arrogant males in their place or will the salesmen avoid the ultimate Halloween humiliation?
This 8,700 word short story features the feminization and humiliation of two sissies in an office setting. The story contains female domination, forced feminization, humiliation, bondage, forced bisexuality, and an attractive woman thoroughly defeating her male coworker in a fight.

The Operator

Considering all I've admitted so far, I find it odd to admit that I've called phone sex lines.  I found myself at this point in my life realizing that I needed to work some things about my feminization.  For a long time, I looked at it as something cool that happened in my past, but I didn't really see it as a part of me.  I needed to talk to somebody about it, but who?  I wasn't exactly ready to tell my friends or family about it.  Even my sister, who knew about my past, I preferred thinking it was purely in my past.  I hadn't dressed in a long time and I was kind of confused.  In some ways, I was a sissy in remission.

Some of the women I called were real duds, but the good ones could be amazing.  I talked to intelligent, outgoing, fun women and then a really amazing thing.  I became friends with some of them.   There was some role play and even some humiliation play, but the best part was just talking.  One of the girls who is more than 5 years younger to me, has her act so much more together than I do that she has felt like a big sister to me.  She's the one who talked me into writing this stuff down. 

The Operator grew out of conversations with actual Nite Flirt operators.   None of them would do what the flirt does in my story, but they all had a lot of calls from guys who were "ordered to call by their wife/mistress" and they all told me how much those calls drove them crazy.   Yes, I seriously did research to make this as true to life as I could.  I'm writing erotica, but I never want to feel that I'm only writing erotica. 

Bob owns a very successful business, but he's also socially awkward.  Clare is a young woman with a fine arts degree who is paying her bills working as a phone sex operator.  When Bob manages to get on Clare's last nerves by telling her what his obviously non-existent mistress wants her to do him, she finally snaps.  The next time he calls, she tells him she talked to his mistress.  Before he knows it, she's got him trapped and blackmails him into a very humiliating feminization process.  This may just be the best thing that ever happenned to him.

This is a very traditional romance with very non-traditional characters.  I think this story is one of my better ones, if it isn't too out there for readers to get behind.  Here's a sample:

"You don't seem very comfortable walking on heels, though.  Do you mind if I help?" she offered cheerily.

He nodded sheepishly.  He had no idea of the girl was trying to embarrass him further, or simply being friendly, but in either case who could feel himself flush with humiliation and felt sweat dripping down his back despite the store being very heavily air conditioned.  She led him over to the mirror and had him watch himself as he walked towards it. 

Unbeknownst to Bob, while this was happening, her friends surreptitiously crept over to where he was sitting.  The saleswoman's attention was momentarily diverted by a customer, but they were pretty sure that she wouldn't have stopped them anyway.  They recognized Bob from his shop where he had kicked them out for loitering.  Now the show was on the other foot or maybe justice was shoeless this time.  They each took one of his shoes and slipped them in their purses along with his socks.

"Now, you need to walk like you're walking on an imaginary straight line and sway those hips.  Guys really like it when your caboose is swaying," she smiled as she gave an exaggerated walk for him.  "Now, you try."

Bob began to do his best to mimic her ultra-feminine gait.

"This is tough," he said in frustration.

"You'll get it.  Remember, land on the balls of your feet, not your heel," she advised.

Bob finally did get a little bit better and thanked Ashlee for her expert coaching.  She caught up to her friends and they exited the store laughing as they went.  Bob decided that the second pair of sandals were the most comfortable and informed the saleswoman that he would take them relieved that his ordeal was over.  He looked for his own shoes so that he could get changed.

"Where are my shoes?" he asked the saleswoman in a panic.

"I don't know.  I assumed you were old enough to keep track of your own shoes," she snickered.

"I think those girls took them," offered one of the women who had been watching Bob's embarrassment. "I'm sorry; I thought the girls were with you."

"No," cried Bob as he got to his feet and rushed to the entrance of the store. 

"Sir, I know you don't want to leave without paying for your shoes.  I am sure you don't want me calling mall security," warned the saleswoman.

"Here's my card," he sniffled pulling his wallet from his pants pocket.

The saleswoman took her time ringing up the sale and putting the pumps and the shoe box for the sandals that Bob was now wearing into the bag.    She smiled and handed the bag to Bob saying, "Come back soon."

             Bob rushed out of the store or at least moved as fast as the delicate heels could carry him.  Immediately, he drew the laughs and stares of a large number of shoppers.  The clicking of the heels on the cobblestone mall of the store alerted people to his presence.  In his panic, Bob had yet to roll down his pants leg, which only made his appearance that much more comical.  It was past 9:30.  Buying the shoes had taken much longer than he thought it would.

P.S.  I had my first Halloween party last night.  It went great.  I'll share soon.

A Mistress Can Make Halloween Very Humiliating

Tonight is going to be my first night in a dress in over 7 years.   When I've told people this, who know about my history, a lot of them have told me that it won't be a big deal because it's Halloween.  There's definitely some truth to that.  It was much easier buying female clothing and wigs at this time of year, but a skilled mistress can make Halloween very humiliating.  

The problem is that once you have mastered your appearance and mannerisms and feminine grooming, it's very hard to just look like  a hairy guy in a dress who never wore heels before.  This is especially true if your mistress won't let you act that way.  While guys dress up as girls all the time, they don't do it with the skill or realism of an accomplished crossdresser.  This is the rub.  It's the part that makes me nervous about tonight.  I'm sure I'll post to let you know how it goes.

From Welcome to College II:

Sure enough, for the next two hours I posed for pictures.  At first the posing was limited to the dorm room, but that soon changed.   I wasn't going to budge, but the girls reminded of just what would happen to me if I disobeyed.  Reluctantly, I followed Amanda out the door for more pictures with the other girls in tow."

"Relax Kylie," whispered Deanna reassuringly, "A lot of guys dress up for Halloween."

"Yeah," said Amanda, "Lots of guys always go to Halloween in drag."

"Sure they do," offered Wendy, "and they shave off all their body hair, wear a corset, and master walking in 3 inch heels.  Lots of guys do that."

I immediately deflated, which I think somehow delighted Wendy.  Deanna was always nice and optimistic; Karen had a wicked sense of humor, but usually didn't go out of her way to put me down; Amanda was definitely in charge, but Wendy seemed to be the one who most delighted in dominating me.

As we approached the dance, I began to have second thoughts, but I didn't have many choices.  I couldn't outrun them if I had been wearing gym shoes.  In my heels, I was trapped.  I hadn't noticed that the girls were dressed entirely in black.  They each added a pair of cat ears and called it a costume.   Meanwhile, I had the elaborate Can-Can Girl outfit.

"Please don't make me do this," I begged one last time, "I'll be a laughing stock."

"Nonsense, you look great," said Deanna grabbing my elbow and escorting me forward despite my resistance and nervous shaking.

Walking into the dance was an experience that I never had before.   Every eye in the place seemed to be on me and it wasn't because they thought I was a guy.  Amanda and her friends beamed like proud parents as they saw me take my first high heeled steps into the room.  I was thankful for the red wig, which was a pretty close approximation to Nicole Kidman's hair in the movie and did a lot to change my appearance from my usual dark black wig.  I hadn't eaten since lunch, but between my nerves and the tight corset, I didn't have much of an appetite.  I did head over to the drink table however, to get a soda.  DuPont College was a dry campus, a fact flaunted by most every student there, but it meant there was no alcohol at official campus functions. 

Sure enough, it wasn't too long before a guy came over to talk to me.  His name was Jon and he was a sophomore.  He was actually a football player in high school and was a pretty big guy, but he was also a pot smoker.

"Hey, I'm Jon," he said.

"H-hey Jon, I'm Kylie," I said in my best feminine voice.  To this point I hadn't really practiced a voice and I know I sounded like a Monty Python character.

"Kylie, eh?  I haven't seen you around before.  I love your costume," he said.

"No, no I'm uhm, friends with some of the girls here," I said.

Suddenly, Jon's eyes grew big.  Between the girl's snickering behind him, my nervousness, and my horrible falsetto voice, he had realized that I was not quite what I appeared to be.

"Dude, that's amazing, but man it's disturbing too," said Jon as he walked back to his friends.

Before long, word spread around the party that I was a guy.  I had a lot of people throughout the night coming over to check on me and make sure that I was indeed a guy.  Amanda told me not to volunteer the information, but if asked I should answer honestly.  The reactions varied greatly from cute girls who wanted their pictures taken with me to guys who felt a little betrayed by their attraction to me.  I was both surprised and relieved to find that even the guys most disturbed by my gender switch had no intention of doing me harm. 

About an hour into the party, Bill and Dwayne approached me and Bill immediately began doing his Three Stooges shtick. 

"Oh, it's a pretty lady," said Bill in his best Curley voice. 

"Hey you, I saw her first," said Dwayne as Moe.  They then pretended to fake fight.

"So, this is why you couldn't be a stooge?" asked Bill.

"It's a long story," I said reluctantly.

"Hey, if you're gay or something, we don't care," said Bill.

"Really?" I asked.

"No, we're your friends said Dwayne.  Would you care if we were gay?  Not that you could tell from all the dates we're getting," added Dwayne.

"I guess not," I said.

"Doesn't he look amazing?" said Amanda, "His costume was my idea."

"I never would have known he wasn't what he appeared to be," said Bill

The girls, Dwayne and Bill, and I spent a lot of time talking that night.  I was thankful for Amanda deflecting any potential awkwardness with my friends, but I was even happier that my friends were open minded enough not to care.  We hung out together in the front lounge where my feminization had all started until 2 AM and Dwayne entertained us with his piano playing before he was told to stop because it was too late at night.   All in all, it was a pretty good night.

A Taste of Things to Come

How to Buy an Audiobook

On Goodreads today, author Alyssa Paige asked me how I was doing on sales for my Calendar Girl audio book.  I told her honestly that they were a bit disappointing.  I've sold 11 of them since they book debuted.  As other authors commented, several problems with audible came up.

1. They don't allow sub-genres. All erotica is in the erotica category, but there are no keywords to make it more specific. Therefore, people are unlikely to notice a feminization book if that's what they're looking for.

2. People don't realize that you can just buy the audio book without signing up for Audible's monthly subscription program.  You can find it on Amazon or Audible.

3. People don't know that if they buy the eBook for $2.99, you can buy the audio book for $1.99.  In other words, you get both version for $2 less than buying just the audio book. 

I promise you, this is a great product and if you like my books, I hope you'll give it a try.  Marami Hung really did an amazing job with the audio.  

What I've Been Doing

I'm still plugging along with the writing.  I'm in the process of wrapping up the Girl Gang series and Wesley is in a mess of trouble again.  I'm still working with some decent lead time.  The next books coming out in order are:

1. The Operator (10/24) - A very conventional story told about very unconventional people.  A phone sex operator is being played by a closet sissy.  He finally pushes her past the breaking point and she decides to teach him a lesson and feminize him for real.  What is in store for our hero and will he ever find the mistress he's been looking for his whole life?

2. Giftwrapped (11/07) - My Christmas story collection features four different stories with a holiday theme.

3. Fugitive from a Girl Gang (11/21) - The exciting conclusion of Wesley's brutal feminization at the hands of a Girl Gang.

In addition, my return to skirts and dresses has been moving along with help from Deanna.  The rough part is she has me changing the color of my toe nails every two days and keeping myself shaved, which is greatly increasing the time I am spending on my grooming.  I've also worn a few things to get used to them again.  I'm happy to report that walking in heels is a lot like riding a bike and didn't really require much practice. I'm also happy to say that while I don't look like I did at 21, I definitely don't look bad for a dude in a dress. 

Hoops is Now Available

Hoops was actually two stories for awhile.  Like Calendar Girl before it, the book took on a life of its own while I was writing it and I wasn't finished until I had written over 16,000 words.  I decided that since I usually shoot for stories between 6,000 and 8,000 words that I'd make it two books.  However, one of my great beta readers told me that he really liked the first book, and he really liked the setup, but that it would flow much better as one book rather than having the first book being setup and the second book being payoff.  I agreed, but it required me really speeding things up to keep my book every two week schedule with Halloween Humiliation coming out earlier than I planned.

The result, is one I'm quite proud of.  It's the story of two basketball players in the tiny town of Crane Lake, Indiana.  Jimmy Ellis is the star of the boy's team who recently became the toast of the town by leading the boys to a 4th place finish in the state and a full ride to a college basketball power.  Savannah Turner is the star of the girl's basketball team who won the state tournament, but felt a bit slighted by all the attention given to Ellis and the less successful boys team.

With Jimmy and his friend Kenny acting like the town celebrities they've become, Savannah and her  friends Gabby and Victoria get into an argument with the boys that leads to a high stakes basketball game between Savannah and Jimmy.   When the game gets ugly, Jimmy and Kenny pay a price that forces them into the last place they want to be--each other's arms.

I think this one will really appeal to fans of Welcome to College and Calendar Girl.  The story takes place at the very end of senior year of high school and through the summer.  There are no minors involved in any sexual contact as the main characters are all 18.  It's got forced feminization, humiliation, and forced bi galore.  Even better, one of my beta readers observed, "I loved this story, I thought that it really had pathos."

S-I-S-S-Y

Robyn Boros was one of Debbie's best friends.  She was cute with long brown hair and big blue eyes that sparkled as she talked.  She had an amazing pair of legs and a great sense of humor.   She was also my former girlfriend.  She was a year older than me in school, which along with her relationship with Debbie was why I didn't ask her out until junior year.  From that moment until I graduated we were inseparable.   She even decided not to go away to school so that we could still be together during my senior year of high school.  We were good together and I wasn't a bad boyfriend. 

Unfortunately, even good things come to an end.  Last summer, it occurred to me that a long distance girlfriend would be a real liability at college and I thought it was more honorable to just break up with her.  She didn't agree and it was a pretty ugly breakup. 

"What is she doing here?" I asked Debbie angrily

"Yeah, you might want to treat the keeper of your key much nicer, Kylie," laughed Debbie

"Oh my God," I said turning pale.

"This is going to be the best summer ever," said Robyn grabbing my skirt and trying to look underneath at my panties.

"Now sister," said Debbie, "We are supposed to take some pictures of you to send back to your school friends.  I think we're start with some of my old dance costumes, then Robyn's cheerleading uniform, and we'll end with mom's wedding dress.  You're going to be a regular supermodel by the time this summer is over."

There was no way that experience wasn't going to be embarrassing.  Doing cheers or wearing a wedding dress in front of your sister and your ex-girlfriend is just naturally humiliating, but it struck me as much worse to be wearing the very clothing that I had admired Robyn in. 

--Welcome to College Book IV: Domestic Discipline 

Regular poster Mindi asked for more details about some scenes such as this one and I remember the cheering quite well.  It had naturally occurred to Debbie and Robyn that dressing me as a cheerleader and a bride would be two of the most humiliating ways to dress me up.  It was also something that the girls at college wanted.  Any photos that Robyn and Debbie took of me could be used as blackmail because they would show that I dressed up when the girls weren't even around and make it harder for me to prove I was forced.  It was also very frightening to think that my mother would find out I had worn her wedding dress.

In addition to wearing the cheerleader uniform (Not the one pictured).  The girls had me do cheers that Robyn had written for me.  I don't remember them all, but I remember that they were all very humiliating.  One that I do remember because I repeated it several times including over the phone to the girls was:

S-I-S-S-Y

I'm a sissy not a guy.

Watch me dance,

Watch me prance.

When I find a cute boy

We'll make romance.

I like kissing, it's so fun

With cute boys, I use my tongue.

Yay Sissy!!

It's not exactly Shakespeare or even LL Cool J, but when it came to humiliating me it did the trick.  The costume itself was black and orange and came complete with orange panties in team color as well as tiny socks and black and orange hair ribbons.  Robyn taught me how to move for the cheers and also had me pose in the same poses they had the girls in for the yearbook page in high school.

9 Questions with Marami Hung

 

She's the voice of my Calendar Girl audiobook, an amazing actress, and now a budding erotica writer.  I can't tell you how lucky I feel to have had her work on my project.   I hope that this audiobook will sell enough that I can entice her to do future projects with me as well.  I thought this was a very appropriate time to introduce you to Marami Hung.

Kylie Gable: You were on my short list when I first posted the audition script on ACX.  I wanted somebody who could be both perky and stern without being too angry and you were one of 4-6 girls who stood out.  What attracted you to the product?

Marami Hung: First of all, it fit my voice type.  These were characters closer to my age, and I felt I could be more comfortable and confident in my delivery without forcing myself into a too-low range in order to sound more mature.  Plus, I liked that the girls were in charge.  It felt empowering, especially to act it out.

KG: Was the subject matter strange to you?  I know you said you were entertained by my blog, which made me feel very flattered, by the way.

MH: I didn't find it strange.  I try to keep an open mind about projects I consider, so nothing really weirds me out anymore.

On a side note, I partly started to read your blog from the beginning so I could get a better idea on what pronoun to use for you, but I'm still not entirely sure, haha! [I go by he, but this is a complicated issue in some of my books.  I had to rewrite Calendar Girl a bit just because I was constantly writing things like "He put on her heels so he could walk out the door."]

KG: Have you ever dressed up a guy for a crossplay or Halloween or anything?

MH: I had a friend back in college that I forced into a corset my freshman year.  I can't remember if it was his idea or mine.  He was wearing a T-shirt underneath, and his hair was short and his face a little stubbly.  He would not have been able to pass as a girl, but I did take a few pictures of him looking over his shoulder and flirtatiously holding his fingertips to his lips.  A few years later, my roommates and I started to pluck his eyebrows for whatever reason.  He was a never a misogynist, but one of my roommates said something like, "Think about this next time you take a girl for granted!"  That's when I started to feel bad, because although he was a big flirt, he treated women well.  I'm not sure if I would be able to forcibly feminize anyone because of my overpowering guilt.

KG: How did you get into doing voice overs?

MH: I'm pretty nerdy.  Back in 2007, I saw a video on YouTube of one of my favorite video games, which was made before full voice acting was commonplace.  But somebody dubbed over the video and it was really well done.  I thought, "How cool!  I can do this too!"  

I also thought that I could perform better reading aloud with just my voice than I could with my face or body.  I never know what to do with my limbs on stage.  I'd rather be a floating head.

KG: Was there one scene in Calendar Girl that you enjoyed recording either because you liked the script or because you thought you really nailed it?

MH: I really liked recording for the kissing booth part.  There are so many different characters in the scene.  I had to do the girls, plus college boys, plus a college boy dressed as a girl.  I had fun playing around with the Brandi voice.  I was a woman recording as a man pretending to be a girl.  I hope I gave Brandi in that scene a nice balance.  I remember liking it a lot when I was editing the audio. 

KG: That's so Victor Victoria :).  The Brandi voice really grew on me too.  I never expected you to nail that character's voice the way you did.  I think my favorite character you did was Cindy.  There's something really humiliating about such a friendly and enthusiastic person teaching you to walk in heels.  I also really liked the way you did Brandon.  Did you have a favorite.

MH: I want to say Sharon.  She was described pretty hot, and she seemed like a really cool person I would want to hang out with.  Also, I like the voice I gave her.  Laid back and "don't mess with me."

KG: What kind of studio setup do you have?  You really get a very professional sound.

MH: I record in a car.  Super professional, right?  I'm not cool enough to have a studio, haha.  

I have a lot of friends who record in their closets, but I feel like a car provides just enough sound isolation without sounding muffled.  The mic I use is an AKG Perception 420.

KG: Now, you also have your first erotic book coming out.  What can you tell us about that?

MH: Yes! :D It's called Licking Lollipops, and it's going to be released on Halloween, my favorite holiday!  It's about a college freshman who sells her body in order to pay for her college tuition.  She gets pretty creative with toys, role playing, and costumes, which is perfect for Halloween!  It's an explicit erotica, but there is a romantic subplot that I find absolutely adorable.

It's also available for preorder here: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O0H7POS

KG: I've asked every interview I've done the same question, so I thought I'd end with that.  If you could crossdress one male celebrity, who would you pick?

MH: I want to say Troy Baker.  He's a huge voice actor in video games, having recently voiced the latest Joker in the Batman Arkham games, Joel in The Last of Us, Booker in Bioshock Infinite, blah blah blah, and he's super coooool!! *fangirl*  I also think he'd make a very pretty lady.  Just look at that blonde hair and pretty blue eyes.

Calendar Girl Audiobook Live on Audible

I am beyond thrilled to announce that Calendar Girl is now up and available for purchase at Audible for $6.95.   The file is 83 minutes of some of my very best writing, captured extremely skillfully by Marami Hung.  She's really amazingly talented and her take on Jen is better than I could have possibly hoped for.  I also really enjoyed her version of Cindy and even Brandon. 

If you don't remember the original story, or you haven't read it yet, it was a story that refused to cooperate with me.  I wanted a simply 8,000 word eBook about humiliating feminization, but the characters refused to cooperate.  I don't use outlines much, but I used one on this particular story and it was a total waste of time.  The scene in the audio sample is from that was never supposed to happen.  I had a very humiliating moment for Brandon before lunch and that was supposed to be the end of it.  However, when I wrote the scene, he acted surprisingly defiant and Jen couldn't let it slide.  That's when I truly enjoy writing--when I feel like the characters are in control instead of me.

It's the story of the Delta Theta's from DuPont College, who have been raising money for their sorority's charities for seventy years by selling a pinup calendar.  Since the 1960s, that calendar has featured a mail model.  This year, the select a guy named Steve.  He's a cocky upperclassman who uses the freshman directory to meet and seduce freshmen girls.  Now he finds himself at the mercy of the Delta Theta pledge class being prepared to be their new pinup in the calendar as well as marketing it.

This story takes place at the same fictional college, I sent my college memoirs at.  I even have a brief appearance by an English professor that readers of the Welcome to College series will recognize as Sheila who was one of the ringleaders in Kylie's feminization 10 years earlier.    It was very well reviewed, but I think my favorite review came from Bending the Bookshelf:

If you're a fan of forced feminization, female domination, and submissive male humiliation, then you'll find Calendar Girl a surprisingly original and exciting tale. Kylie Gable has turned the genre on its head a bit here, telling the tale entirely from the perspective of the women of the Delta Theta sorority. This is a story about young women learning the joy and the exhilaration of having absolute power over men, and of using those men for their own entertainment.

The idea of using pin-up calendars as fund raising tools is hardly unique, and even the idea of putting men in pin-up drag has been done before. The twist here is in picking one lucky boy from campus, getting to know him, and learning precisely how to either entrap him or entice him into participating. It's not just an afternoon of cheesecake poses, either - a proper transformation takes weeks of public humiliation, involving everything from shopping for shoes and lingerie, to getting a public makeover.
