2024 - The year of Novelty

Issue #37
It’s been close to a month since the last Issue. In fact, this is the first issue of Concupiscence in 2024. In the intervening time, the story about Usha in The Other Men continued, and so did the story about Yashna (u/vanilla4banana). I took a break of about 10 days from writing, and I’m back with some fresh ideas and fresh sexy stories.
I want to try something new with this Issue — I want this to be a blog, rather than a structured announcement post. The reason I started writing Concupiscence Issues was pretty simple — I wanted a place where I spoke to my reader, without the filter of prose. Even when I write Escapades (my non-fiction stories), I speak through a sieve, a sieve meant to excite you, a sieve meant to talk to you in a way that excites you.
But, in this little corner of my little publication, I speak to my readers, who have stick around
long enough to find this section. Thank you for taking the time!2024 — The Year of Novelty
Okay, that was just clickbait. January is the month of ambition. This random month of a random year in the calendar, somehow manages to make men think that they will scale the Everest in twelve months. Nothing extraordinary can happen in twelve months. But, nothing extraordinary ever happens without putting twelve months of hard work and sweat in it.
By the end of December, I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. I know, it’s mostly a first world problem, but all those years ago, when as a 12 I would try to type the entire dictionary, I knew that the misspent childhood will catch-up with me some day. With typing for work and for pleasure, my wrist finally gave up in early December. Everything that you’ve read in December was written in November. A lakh words in a month took a toll on my already bad condition, making it worse.
I’m telling you this, not as an excuse to be sloppy and infrequent, but as a thank you for giving me something to do which eases my pain. Writing for
has been and will always be about pleasure. Yes, there have been times when I’ve written content which I didn’t feel like writing. Other times, I wrote something just to draw traffic to this newsletter, for people to discover the stories which I’d already written.2024 will not be that kind of year. In this year, I’ve decided to focus on my craft, focus on the quality of stories and prose that I put out, rather than on the length. That doesn’t mean that my stories will be short and half-written. There will still be quick bursts of stories, which are meant solely to make you touch yourself, or to share it with your loved ones to add some spice and kink your relationship. However, the majority of content on After a Good Date in 2024 will be Indian erotica, written to make you think while you’re jerking yourself off.
In a Special Edition “The Journey So Far”, for the first time I wrote the idea that I want to write a complete novel. I don’t think any of the stories and characters that I’ve written so far can fit in a novel. But, a collection of them will. I don’t mean an anthology of stories, rather I mean a world of Indian Kink, where characters like Ishita and Usha know each other, where Roli meets Dhruv, where Meera knows Manan. It’s a small world, but these characters have taken a life of their own in my mind. And yes, I will certainly write more about the life of Sumera and Avesh, after the events of The Fourth Wheel.
The Other Men
One of the perks of being a Patreon member is access to the messy kitchen where I cook stories. I’m not a great cook, but I think, for the people who support my work, I owe it to them to show my more of my work. Working in Public has a huge advantage — feedback. Some feedback can be plainly hurtful and dismissive.
When I’d started writing long-form stories like Untying the Knots, I often got texts telling me that I’m writing too much, without enough sex. It was the reason why I dialed up the sex in the entire story. Originally, the story about Manan and Ishita was supposed to be about them. There was never supposed to Aliva and other girls. But, I changed everything that I’d planned earlier, and put them in one long scene — an evening of sexual indulgence, where sex was the prize, where Manan watches Ishita get fucked by another man on their first date.
I enjoyed writing the story, because it was the first time, I had characters do things that I didn’t think of originally, that they had autonomy, that they did and said things, which seemed natural to their fictional selves.
The Other Men is turning out to be a story like that. This time, it has nothing to do with any feedback. Whatever feedback I’ve gotten about the story, do not complain about the length, or the long serialization of the story. In fact, the few DMs, I’ve gotten in the recent past have inquired about the next part (which is published at the time of writing this).
For The Other Men, I have published the original character sketch and sequence of events that I’d thought before the first chapter was written. I have deviated from the length and depth to which I went in each chapter, which makes the initial plot a whole different story.
The sixth chapter of The Other Men is published. In the sixth chapter, we get to know more about Anand, and his life before he married Usha. We meet Suchi and Amir again (from About a Common Whore). Suchi, the young curly haired whore, who was broken by Jit seth, is a regular of Anand’s. Their story, will get complicated, and it will be a matter of time and space if I explore their story more. By the end of the sixth chapter, Usha is all set to spend an evening with Sneha (From Sneha at the Mall), an evening which will change the way she sees herself.
The seventh chapter will pick up pace, the crescendo to the build-up from the chapters five and six.
Collaboration (a maybe)
I always get excited whenever I find a Redditor with a Substack. In the end of December, and especially during early January, I was contacted by a Redditor, who had only recently started their account. I am always wary of Reddit accounts which are less than a year old. Invariably, they disappear. They forget their passwords, or simply lose interest in the noisy world of Reddit.
u/velvetkanya texted me, asking me to read her recent post. This wasn’t the first time I’d gotten a text like this. Such DMs usually lead to pleasant discoveries, even though they end up writing just one or two such posts. Aadhya, as she likes to call herself, seemed determined.
I liked what she had written, especially the smooth and velvety tone of her prose. I’m not sure if she will continue writing. I made some art of
in the hopes of her getting some traffic. We also talked about a collaboration.I’m not sure that it will come to fruition, because the entire project is delayed by a week. But, I hope that she follows through her plan of publishing a long form story about the time she was discovered that she likes to get spat on while having sex.
This should not be seen as an endorsement for

Talking about women from Reddit, I have to tell you about Yashna (u/vanilla4banana) and the second chapter of the story about her. The day I published Body of Words — 1, her Reddit profile was banned. It was a tragedy, considering that I was holding off the publication of the story, giving a gap between my publication emails.
Writing this story series has been absolute fun. The little things that Yashna does — like sending me a picture of her face buried in a dick, or simply sending a topless photo of her, with her smiling at the camera. When I had first written about her in a Wild Indica issue, I didn’t think that I will get to know her enough that I’d be getting pictures of her with her face. I had a pretty decent idea of how she looked from the photos which she posted, but to see that face, smiling, and knowing that it was the same girl who posted GIFs of herself puckering her asshole, was not something I’d expected.
Body of Words - 2 is more of a prequel to the first chapter. It has a mix of images generated by me, and pictures sent by Yashna. One especially, with her letting cum dripping from her mouth was so hot that I had to include it, even if it doesn’t go with the aesthetics of my newsletter.
If you haven’t read the second chapter yet, do give it a read! It is the penultimate chapter, before I conclude this story.
That will be all for this Issue. Before I publish the next one, I think I’ll have a new story to talk about. Until then, happy reading and be safe!
