Hi all, I'm taking time out of my day being Realname to pass along some updates about what I hope to achieve in 2023. I had very high hopes for 2022 and they didn't all materialize. That's okay, I worked hard and pursued a lot of ideas that didn't meet my satisfaction. At the end … Continue reading The Liam Slade 2023 Slate

Taking a breather (and getting back to it)
Somewhere along the way -- maybe amidst some very heartfelt responses to stories like The Fish of the Desert and Cat Fisher -- I found my standards being raised. There are a few stories on this site that maybe don't live up to what I want to do but for the most part everything I … Continue reading Taking a breather (and getting back to it)
Return to the Trading Post and the TG Wiki
Some updates on what I've been up to lately.
Special Teaser Preview: The Princess Awakening
I would love to be able to tell you that I am almost done with my next long work, which is called The Princess Awakening. Unfortunately, you can't rush the creative process and while I would love to be breezing through it, I have to settle for taking consistent, measured paces toward completion. My hope … Continue reading Special Teaser Preview: The Princess Awakening
Smashing it up, various updates
After deciding to part ways with Gumroad (I'm sure they're real broken up about it) I quickly set about finding a new secondary home for my works. It's important to me that Amazon not be the only place you can find stories like Kristi's Mom, I Changed Sexes With My Wife and Partsexchange, since I … Continue reading Smashing it up, various updates
The Next Day
At the begnning of last month (September) I uploaded the finalized version of the novel I had been working on since the launch of this site in spring 2020. There was a kind of funny symmetry to the timing. I could officially round up and say that I had been working toward it for a … Continue reading The Next Day
Keeping Busy
After peppering this site with a lot of short pieces last year, I've been giving more and more time to longer pieces that aren't going to get done in a single weekend. As a result, the content on this site has slowed to almost nothing, but that doesn't mean I've been slacking. As you know, … Continue reading Keeping Busy
Ideas, Ideas, Ideas
If you follow me on Twitter, you know that I've been busy -- perhaps too busy. Over the last few months I have really increased the intensity with which I approach my work as Liam Slade, writer of TG/TF Fic. You've seen a couple of stories from me, including Steven: A Love Story (which can … Continue reading Ideas, Ideas, Ideas
Recent Happenings: The Art of Liam
Something I've done lately is launch a Deviant Art account. I don't think I'm a stupendous artist by any means - I enjoy putting pencil to paper and find it soothing to create something that matches, or exceeds, the image in my head, but I am stupendously limited (seriously not looking for compliments or reassurance … Continue reading Recent Happenings: The Art of Liam
Introducing Sophomore Year: A new BlogFic
I am pleased to announce the launch of my new ongoing BlogFic, Sophomore Year. It is written from the perspective of Andrew Gillen, a 29-year-old man in 2016 who somehow found himself pulled back into his high school years of 2002 - in the wrong body. Now to the world, he is Jessa Gilbert, a … Continue reading Introducing Sophomore Year: A new BlogFic
