Three Tears: Chapter One by David Heulfryn

Martin is studying art at college, and James is in his final year of secondary school. Their mother registered the brothers with a model and acting agency when they were very young; she was told they had a look photographers would want. While Martin didn’t enjoy being in front of the camera, James relished the experience and kept up his childhood modelling and acting.

However, an assignment James had a few years ago was shown at his school. A new teacher showed the class an educational video which starred his brother, James. And Tony had to sit through the awkward and embarrassing lesson.

Three Tears by David Heulfryn

Would you believe it has been twenty years since I started writing and posting my story ‘Three Tears’? It is a story about three brothers, Martin, James and Tony, as they navigate their adolescence and experience the awkward first flush of love. It was my first story of substance and one I was proud of at the time. I am still proud, as I never thought I could finish a novel-length story.

When I redesigned the website, I didn’t upload this story as I wanted to edit and tweak my stories to get rid of glaring typos and poor grammar.

Well, twenty years later, I started editing the story. For those who remember, it took me years to finish it, and it languished into that irrating zone of ‘unfinished stories’ for several years. I hate it when I get into a new story, and then it suddenly stops, and the writer doesn’t finish it. I vowed I would not be one of those writers. (Unfortunately, my website contains some unfinished stories from guest authors).

Tomorrow, I am going to start sharing the story again. Even if you read it the first time around, I hope you read again.

Happy New Year 2025

If you are celebrating tonight, I hope you enjoy yourself. I’m not big on celebrating New Year, mainly because I’m not a party person. I prefer to stay at home and have a quiet night in with a nice bottle of wine.

It is also a difficult time for me. My depression is back, as it does during the winter, and family is causing me great stress. I need to start looking after myself better, put myself first for once, and that is what I will try to do this year. I spent too much of my time helping others, so much that I have neglected my own health.

Writing is my main escape, but it can be difficult when you’re stressed. I need to clear my head to get my stories out. So I need to start taking control. I have much I want to write about and hope you like what is in my head, when I get to share it with you. I hope to bring you more Cockaigne Chronicles and more stand alone short stories.

Enjoy your night and raise a glass to me. I will be raising a glass to all my readers and supportors. Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays 2024

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays to all my readers and supporters. It’s been a turbulent year for me, having suffered some bad mental health issues. In between bouts of depression, I have managed to write, and I’m proud of some stories. This time of year always drains me physically and emotionally, but as soon as the season is over, I hope to get back to the keyboard. I already have several story ideas floating in my head.

I found the picture above on social media and had to use it. It is a parody of an album cover, one of my favourite albums. (If any youngsters are reading this, ask your parents what an album is.)

If you know the name of the album, be the first to tell everyone else in the comments. There are no prizes, just the honour of being the first to tell everyone.

I hope you all have a great day! And a big thank you to those working today, especially the NHS and other emergency services who keep us safe.

Having Some Fun With AI Pictures

I’m sure some of you have seen me using AI to illustrate my stories. I’ve had a lot of fun playing with it, and despite getting some good results, it has also generated some strange results. I’ve seen some good AI nudes that have been created and shared on social media; by nudes, I mean naked men.

I’m not a super-experienced techie, but I’m not a technophobe either (I can run and manage this website, after all), but I cannot get any online AI generators to render me a good picture of a naked man. When searching for an answer, I discovered that I may have to download something, but I don’t have a good enough graphics card for it to work. So until the online AI generators can generate a realistic cock, they are excellent at generating naked women, but who here wants me to post stories and pictures of naked women?

I’ve chosen one of the least disgusting renderings of a man’s crotch to illustrate just how bad it is. Some pictures have come out like mutants created on “The Island of Dr. Moreau.”

AI is by no means perfect, but it has yet to learn what naked men look like. Perhaps it would have learned enough to do a proper job in a few years.

Women, on the other hand, are easier to draw. They don’t have much down below, and you can get away with a simple gash. But my website is not dedicated to stories about women, lesbian or not, and I don’t expect wanting to generate many pictures of naked women. Perhaps one or two.

After searching and testing more, I found a model (Which they call the template with which to base the picture) that can render a semi-decent-looking naked man. The only problem is that it is in the style of a cartoon/anime. I would have preferred something more photorealistic, but this will have to do until the online AI generators get better. I can manage to create some good photorealistic pictures of men in underwear, all wearing white briefs or the occasional red briefs (just to satisfy my fetish).

I can even manage to get a good picture of a naked arse. My favourite phrase to type into the generator is “with pert buttocks”. But the system also has a mind of its own and doesn’t always do what I ask. I still cannot get a good picture of two guys spooning in bed.

My main reason for starting to play with AI for picture illustrations was copyright. I wasn’t happy “borrowing” pictures from the internet, so I chose stock pictures from various free stock picture sites instead. That was okay to start with, but the choices are limited with the free sites, and the paysites are very expensive.

Then AI came to the rescue. It’s not perfect, but it is proving to be the best of all the options. So far, I like what it is creating; even though it might not be what I wanted exactly, it is near enough. Plus, I hold the copyright, apparently.

AI is still young, but some safeguards prevent you from generating inappropriate images. For instance, anything that suggests a naked underage person is prevented. However, using the NSFW model generator, I have discovered that if I write “young man”, the character sometimes looks too young. I discovered that if I change that to “man,” I will seem to get a young man who looks like an adult by default. In other generator models, I have had to write “young man”; otherwise, I get old or middle-aged men.

I would like to share one picture with you that didn’t turn out as expected because I find it amusing. In the generator, I wrote, “naked young man holding his hard cock with cum dribbling from the tip”, and this is what I got! It gave me a little chuckle.

This is where we leave 2024. Unfortunately, I won’t be posting any more stories this year, but I hope to have new stories for you in the new year. In the meantime, I would love to hear your opinions on what sort of images you want to see. Should I keep them “safe for work” and photorealistic, with men in their underwear and the occasional “pert buttocks”, or would you like to see some harder images in the cartoon/anime style? Or perhaps a mixture of the two to liven things up. Please leave a comment to tell me what you think. You don’t have to leave your name, email address or website, so you can remain totally anonymous; those fields are not mandatory.

I look forward to hearing from you and sharing more stories in the new year.

The Billionaire’s Brat by David Heulfryn

Dylan is given an urgent assignment from the agency. He is that rare thing, a male nanny. But this is not the usual assignment; it is for a wealthy family. Freddie is his parents’ pride and joy and he is spoiled rotten; your classic spoilt brat. But when Dylan meets Freddie, he is not the two-year-old he was expecting; he is eighteen and very demanding.

Anything Can Happen In Ibiza by David Heulfryn

Obie goes on a lads holiday to Ibiza. His friend, Charlie, is determined that Obie will not come home as a virgin. But the first night, Obie gets very drunk and passes out.

The following morning, he wakes with a pounding head and checks his mobile phone. The pictures and videos he sees shock him as Charlie and some other lad they net on the night out play with his limp body.

Obie gets a visit. Another lad they met that night has come to apologise for his friend’s behaviour. They open up to each other and find themselves in bed together.

First to Arrive by David Heulfryn

Owen comes from a large family and is the first to go to university. He shares a room with four brothers so when he gets his dorm assignment at university, he moves in at the earliest opportunity.

A few other students are moving in at the same time, but not in his block. That is until Rory arrives, he finds Rory in the kitchen, who offers to feed him. They settle down over a bowl of Spaghetti Bolognaise to get to know each other.

Remember, Remember, The Sixth of November by David Heulfryn

In the UK, Bonfire Night (or Guy Fawkes’ Night, or Fireworks Night) is celebrated each year on the 5th of November. We are celebrating the discovery and prevention of a plot (of whom Gay Fawkes was one of the plotters) to blow up Parliament and kill the King.

This story centres around a student who has to host an international student, Risa. The family show him British family life and takes him to a Fireworks Night celebration. Will explains why they are celebrating, and Risa misreads the signs and kisses him. Will’s reaction to the kiss humiliates him, and he runs off.

The following day, the 6th of November, Will and Risa talk about what happened, and it turns out to be a night to remember.
