Maverick Asterson - All Works
Welcome to the bookshelf section, where works are categorized by type. Note that some short works will be available in their entirety here, while multipart works that have been published will generally only have a sample (unless the work is unpublishable on a major platform). If there isn't an ISBN, chances are I'm making it available for free on the website.
Disclaimer: While the stories contained here focus on gay male erotica, not all characters involved necessarily identify as gay or are homosexual. Some may not even be considered men, depending on their species, and genitalia may vary. In addition, as a warning to any trans viewers, please be aware that some of the content on this website may be triggering. Please read the content warnings for each story before reading, so that you can avoid reading content that you do not want to read. This is also your politics content warning - some works may contain politics and descriptions of events that may be unsettling to certain audiences. Specific content warnings will be posted on the pages for each book or short story.
All characters engaging in sexual acts in the erotica stories on this website are at or above the age of consent for their society or species unless stated otherwise (18 for 'vanilla' humans). Non-erotica works may feature slightly younger characters, but only with characters of approximately the same age and with the focus being on emotions and anatomy rather than titillation. All works have at least one male gay human character unless specified otherwise.
Short Form Erotica
This section focuses on short, self-contained stories, often one-shots, with the focus being on sexual acts. One character typically (but not always) behaves as a reader stand in for your imaginative pleasure. These works will be hosted on this website for free, mainly because the author is lazy and the time spent on creating covers and formatting the stories as e-books could be spent just writing other things.
Long Form Erotica
This section contains multi-part short stories and multi-chapter novelettes. These stories tend to have a significant amount of the word count devoted to worldbuilding and/or plot, and may also give some attention to supporting characters. These fall short of proper romances, but may have romance elements. If you enjoy imagining homoerotic relationships in fantasy or science fiction settings where social norms and even biologies are different, these works may be for you. Characters may or may not be written as reader stand ins.
World Collections
This section contains collections of works taking place within the same world. There will generally be a mix of erotic, non-erotic, and other components in these works. The focus of these is on the world itself.
