Hey everyone, here's some artwork for The Poni Trifecta, which will be a collection of Volumes 2, 3 and 4 of the Poniworld Chronicles. The three characters are Brogene, Dust and Adolf Poni.

I still haven't completed volumes 3 and 4, but you can enjoy the lovely art, created by Jessica Delvasto ~ http://nin-uss.deviantart.com/

Thanks Jessica!

Hey all! I've been working on two new Poniworld books that I will be releasing soon. The books are called My Brootal Poni: A Very Butch Poni Tale, & Dust in Your Eyes: An Erotic Poni Tale. You can see the cover art for My Brootal Poni above. Those of you who have the paper edition of MachoPoni will recognize it as that book's back cover art. Anyway, I've completed the first few drafts of each book. I have to do the final edits on them. Unfortunately I messed up my wrists from typing and mousing too much so I have to take a break to heal. I guess I wasn't being very ergonomical. But as soon as I am able I'll get the books finished up. 

The cover for Dust In Your Eyes is really cool too, but you'll have to wait to see!

I do intend to put out paper versions as well, but they will be after the ebook versions. And in the meantime if you need a poni fix, volume 2 of the Poniworld Chronicles, called Mein Poni-Kampf about Adolf Poni is available for Kindle at amazon.com.

If you want to stay informed of new releases you can always join my mailing list by going to my website, http://loteyrose.com  :D

Thanks everyone! Take care.

This second stand-alone volume of the Poniworld Chronicles shifts its attention onto one of the most controversial figures in Poniworld history, Adolf Poni. Follow him as he goes from being a child with a love of dunking cookies in milk to being a murderous adult. Find out how a strawberry milk mustache led to mass murder. This account is humorous and horrific at the same time. For mature audiences. This ain't your little sister's book about Nazi ponies.

~*The Battle Hymn of the Nazi Ponies*~

My little nazi, My little nazi,
Bringing the world a master race.
My little nazi, My little nazi,
Rise of the Bipeds will speed the pace!
Changing and growing, strong and all-knowing,
Bringing you horrors untold.
Mein Über-Poni, Mein Über-Poni,
What does the future hold?

Where did you come up with the idea for The Doll Queen?
There is an event called NaNoWriMo, National Novel Writing Month, which is November. People participating in the event try to write a novel of at least 200 pages in the month of November. Well, I consider myself a pretty slow writer. I thought I would try "NaNoWriMo lite" and try to write 100 pages in a month. As it turns out, The Doll Queen ended up around 90 pages long. I had previously finished Faerie Brace-Face, and I wanted to write something darker, and I've always enjoyed writing faerie tales. So I decided on a dark faerie tale. So I tried to come up with a plot about knights and royalty. I had a basic idea of a queen sitting on a throne with a headless teddy bear, and I ruminated on it to come up with ideas. I had some ideas and then I just jumped in and tried the whole "write by the seat of your pants" approach. I'm happy with the result. The ending, which I really like, was a surprise even to me.

Is it available in actual paper that I can smell, cuz ebooks suck. I hate them.
Well, so far there is no paper version, but I can easily make one in the future. But would people buy them, is the question. I made a paper version of Faerie Brace-Face and it's not exactly flying off the virtual shelves. But yeah, I would say there's a good chance I'll make a paper version in the future, but right now, my ebooks sell a lot better than my paper books.

Okay, whatever. What's the story behind the cover? It's pretty cool.
Well, I searched through clip art pictures and I found that picture. I liked it. And I thought that in thumbnail form, people would look at it and say, "whoa, boobs!" I believe boobs sell. Then they would click and technically there is no nudity, because it's a nipple-less doll and I would avoid being arrested in Florida on obscenity charges! So it's win-win! The fonts used on the cover are Knight's Quest and Newcastle (incidentally, one of my fave beers).

The cover says it's a faerie tale, but I read it and wanted to cut my wrist. Faerie tales should be happy and glittery.
Not this faerie tale. This one is more in the tradition of the Brothers Grimm. People often accuse me of being too cutesy and sweet. Well, now I can point to this tale. In actuality, I like to change up my style from project to project to keep things interesting. Maybe MachoPoni was cutesy, but it also had horror elements. Faerie Brace-Face, was a little cutesy with some science fiction. And The Corruption of Innocence? My most controversial work. People like to give that 1 star ratings. So basically, this is a dark tale. If you want cutesy and happy, I have other works available.

Hey screw that previous FAQer, I loved it! I think all fiction should be dismal and end with everyone dying like a good Hemingway short story! So will you write any more faerie tales that remind us all of the futility and fragility of existence?
Ummm, well, I enjoy writing faerie tales. In fact, a couple of my previous short stories are The Princess and the Pretty Boi, and The Girl Behind the Iron Chastity Belt, which you may enjoy.

Actually, I'm raising my own hand now, and asking, "Is it really so dismal and dark? I'm too young to die by suicide."
Actually, no. It's just a faerie tale folks. Not too dark, not too light. Juuuuust right.

So what's up with the short story, "Butterfly Knight"? It's called a prequel to The Doll Queen...
Well, I had some time between projects so I decided to fill in some of the story of what happened before the occurrences of The Doll Queen. I had this idea of a butterfly knight in ultralight armor that still allowed it to fly. So I took it from there. I'm actually interested in maybe writing more stories dealing with the female knight who encounters the butterfly knight. I don't know if people would be interested in it. Actually, I often write about characters that lead to more ideas. It's the characters that lead to the ideas that I would write about. It just depends on if anyone is interested in reading about them.

So will there be a sequel to The Doll Queen?
I dunno, there could be. The whole world around The Doll Queen interests me, and I could see myself writing about various characters in that world. It depends on if people want to read it. I prefer to write things people actually want to read...

Okay, thanks. So where can I get this so-called Doll Queen ebook?

Ello. In honor of the upcoming Easter holiday I'm lowering the kindle price of SinEaster to 99 cents! Not sure how long I'll keep it at that price. We'll just have to see how it goes.

Here's the link
http://amzn.com/B003X9782I

Here's the blurb.

Like a naughty Easter version of The Nightmare Before Christmas mixed with Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. . .

Don't let her habit of constantly wearing bunny ears fool you. Charlee hates Easter. And she has good reason to. So, on the day before her 18th birthday, she wasn't expecting to meet the Easter Bunny, a person-sized gummi egg, and a large toad. But that's what happens when she and two other teenagers are transported to Easter Land. Charlee ponders the teenage girl made out of gummi with huge boobs, and the teenage boy in a wheelchair with an overdeveloped upper body.

A black-clad princess informs them that they must compete to decide which of the three creatures will be the future egg deliverer. But a mysterious man tied to a dark holiday known as SinEaster is also aware of the teens' arrival.

Some say that in the days of prophesy, SinEaster will destroy Easter. Will Easter go on as usual, or will it be cancelled this year?

By the author of MachoPoni and Faerie Brace-Face.

Heya, everybody. Well, I had some free time a couple weeks ago, so I decided to write a short story, and I ended up writing a prequel of sorts to The Doll Queen. But it's more of a stand alone story. It's about a female knight who encounters an armored attack butterfly. I decided to make it a free e-story at smashwords, so if you'd like to check it out, click here

About the Author

Lotus Rose is also the author of MachoPoni: A Prance with Death, SinEaster, The Doll Queen, and The Corruption of Innocence. He writes about young characters in strange situations. At times dark, silly, or bawdy, his writing owes much to such influences as Alice in Wonderland and Roald Dahl, and explores themes like disillusionment, and the corruption of innocence. If his books were movies, they'd likely be directed by Tim Burton. He often writes in a style that is a more edgy, “grown-up” version of children’s literature interspersed with his poetry and songs.

Hey all, my latest ebook is currently available for amazon kindle, at smashwords.com, and for barnes & noble nook.

In this strange faerie tale, Princess Leila is intrigued by the arrival of the mysterious Prince Gabriel, who comes from a kingdom where the queen sits upon the throne with a headless teddy bear. An assassination attempt by a headless knight sends them on a journey to save the prince's kingdom. The journey is complicated by a mischievous demon, and by Blondy, a rival for the prince's affections. Leila finds herself falling deeper for the prince, but soon discovers that he has strange secrets...
