The Raven & the Writing Desk, Episode 14: Metamor City — The Cuckoo, Part 3

We’re back, folks! A huge thanks to everyone who supported the GoFundMe campaign when my audio recording interface suddenly stopped working. This episode was recorded with my new TASCAM DR-40 connected to my existing microphone. I think you’ll be very pleased with the results.

The Story: “The Cuckoo,” Part 3

John’s plans for Delilah reach fruition, but there’s an unexpected complication. The Baronesa is more than she seems, and when she and John make love, the effect on John is something he never anticipated…

CONTENT ADVISORY: This episode contains explicit language and strong sexual content. Listener discretion is advised.

The Raven & the Writing Desk, Episode 12: Metamor City – The Cuckoo, Part 1

Chris reads some feedback from Twitter and asks for listeners to review The Raven & the Writing Desk on iTunes.

The Story: The Cuckoo, Part 1

Meet John, an incubus who was kicked out of his noble family once his true nature was revealed. He’s set his sights on the Baronesa Delilah Velasco de Moraine, a shy, beautiful Tournish noblewoman: recently wedded to a Metamorian lord, and completely overwhelmed by the strangeness of Metamor’s high society. John has ideas about how to help her be more accepted in the world that rejected him — but what does he get out of it? And who is he working for, anyway?
