I started adding a few drops of glycerin lately, and that seems to help, but although I've got to the point where it's passable - it's nothing close to the creamy, thick lather some of these guys post pictures of.

I'd try something a bit better if you can.
The William Marvy you are using is not Williams Mug Soap.
The Marvy stuff is utter trash. I had some that came with an eBay purchase. I tried making a lather twice then stuck it in the shower. Ivory soap lathers better than Marvy.
