Re: Taken! Author's note
Posted: Fri Jul 01, 2016 2:29 am
I started writing in the 1990s. The first story written was "The Enslavement of Elena", followed soon after by "Taken!" and then a venture into poetry called "The Chastity Belt". In 1991 I began self-publishing the stories -- the first one in print was Taken!, followed by the Chastity Belt and then Elena. By 1996 I had begun putting together a website.
For awhile, the file for Taken! had been lost. But recently I located a copy of Taken! in print -- from that copy I was able to put together a textfile of the story that I can now share here.
I find it interesting to track the progress of the writing. Certainly, the quality improves over time. With Taken! and Elena being the first ones, you'll notice the difference from the later titles (by copyright years). For the archive, I'm glad to have this early piece back in the collection. It's one of the shortest as well as the earliest. I hope you enjoy it!
