Hi D - Thank you for your lovely comment. I had no plan to write a series for chapter one until you asked. You are very welcome, and I enjoyed it immensely, too.

KATE I listened for less than a minute I didn't realy like the voice. But just so you know I've only moved up to a bigger kindle I've never used audio before I'm old school and I suppose some might call me old to. 66

Kate, you asked for thoughts about the AI inspired reader ... well gotta say, it was delightful! SO much better than the apps reader -- she actually pronounced all of the words just as they were written (as opposed to spelling F U C K (and probably pussy or cunt) and all the other descriptive words that make the read so enjoyable... ) And such a sexy voice! the app reader sounds like a voice-mail message :)~

IMO you should add this feature to all stories.

Hi Doug, thank you so much for your feedback on the story and the AI reader. Unfortunately, the good AI readers are just too expensive at this time, but I hope the costs come down soon.

Kate, I enjoyed the audio performance. That virtual voice reading was much better than the other virtual readings I have listened to. Keep up the great work!

Audio judgment first, I loved it. Much better than the emotionless, dry substack audio that pauses too much and has to read every quotation mark. I found the voice to be realistic and expressive. All of that said, if this cost too much and cuts into average income, I can live with the substack one. Now on to the story, what a hot little tale you have working here. Very nice, good intro to the new girl and I didn't know much about her. Didn't know there was a school for wayward girls on the campus? GOODWORK!!

Thank you so much for your feedback, Chester. While I quietly rewrite Lactating Niece in the background, I shall publish more of this series. I'm thrilled you enjoyed the chapter. As for audio, I will continue researching options because the technology has moved quickly, and I want to stay ahead.

Is there any way for me to subscribe to the AI reader service. I like it that much over the dry non-dimensional substack offering. The substack one sounds so robotic, I confess it is used only out of necessity. It would be worth it to me since I have a minimum of 10 more days if commuting to the hospital.

Hi Chester, the AI voice comes from ElevenLab.io . The pricing is quite expensive, so I only bought one month for $22 for 100,000 characters per month. It isn't simple to use, so I don't recommend it to readers. To make the story smooth, you must add syntaxes like spaces, commas, and full stops, then add letters to make the phonetic sound override the AI interpretation. Because I went over this so many times in editing, I used 65K characters. I think I could get it down to 22K characters, but I am looking elsewhere for a more cost-effective solution. I'll let you know how I get on.

I understand your reluctance. Compliments on the job you did editing the one you did. Many of those things are what made it seem so natural or some leaning toward the erotic sound. Different voices for different characters was also a plus. Guess the technology isn't quite "plug & play" yet. I will continue to use th one available and follow your lead. Your deep library does provide a great deal of choice and enjoyment on my drives. Some reason wife always notices when inget to her room. "You must have been listening to something really good on the way over here by the looks of things."

Thanks again for all you writing and effort.

L,Chester

Thank you, Chester. I am researching alternatives so all is not lost, and to be honest, it's just a matter of time, given how rapidly the technology is developing. Thank you for your encouragement

Gabriel is fucking someone. You don't spend all day spanking hot girls and then just go home. At first, I assumed he just goes with one of the girls in a different training level, but Chastity says he never fucks any of the girls.

He could be gay, and now he's getting railed by his own Daddy. That would make more sense than he's some kind of weird monk/Dom combo.

Umm... Jeff? How do you know that a guy doesn't spank hot girls all day and then go home? Is this the beginning of a confession that I must hear more about?

Gay? Maybe.... let's see. I love your comment and hope you are having a great weekend.

I'll send over a coach full of hot girls who need spanking, Jeff.

Rest assured, I will not be going home afterwards without fucking as many as will let me 😉

It'll probably kill me, but what a way to go!

This was a great read for the second time Kate. That’s the mark of your craft. We can read and thoroughly enjoy time and time again. Now turning to your request, I’m not a fan of audio books, preferring to read at my own pace and to pause from time to time and reflect. However, I listened to the audio version briefly. I have to say that I didn’t like the timbre of the voice. It was far too tinny and that made it hard to imagine that this was a beautiful, sultry and salacious young woman speaking. Just my opinion.

Hi John, thank you very much for pointing out the audio quality. I bought a monthly subscription to gauge reaction, and thank you for yours. If insufficient readers want it, I'll cancel the subscription. I only wrote this chapter this morning, so it should be your first time reading it unless you were looking over my shoulder 😂😂😂 - I wrote chapter one some time ago, then almost doubled the word length, improving it. Because some readers asked for more, I did c2, and now I am doing C3, hopefully for tomorrow. I'm looking around my bedroom to see if you are reading an advanced draft 😂

Oh Kate, you’ve caught me out 😂😂😂 My career wasn’t in policing, it was espionage 😂😂😂. In truth, it was probably because I remembered some of the characters. I’m delighted that this is a new series. It clearly has a lot of potential.
