Thanks,
Lisabet, for having me here today. I appreciate the opportunity to
share a bit about myself.
Ever
since I was a child, I wrote stories for myself and for school when
required. But when I began writing for publication in October 2012
and discovered my knack for writing erotica, I never intended to
write a male/male story. I felt comfortable with my male/female and
my male/female/male ménage ideas. Inserting a paranormal influence
was not a difficult choice; it just came naturally. I did, however,
feel the need to write straight contemporary erotica as well. Thus,
my “A Seekers Story” titles and my “Inked Heat” titles (one
of which is no longer available) came to be.
It
truly amazes me how everyday situations or things can suddenly spark
a story idea. As a result, I find myself wishing I could run for pen
and paper or my laptop at truly inconvenient times—doing errands,
driving my daughter to and from school, or standing under the shower
for instance.
When
I spotted a particular photo on a Deviant Art page, it sparked an
immediate interest and sent my imagination wheels spinning. The
picture of two men standing in front of a wall mirror, one embracing
the other from behind as he kissed his way up his partner’s neck,
“spoke” to me in such a way that it seeped into my pores.
Because
I wasn’t completely convinced I could pull off a story with gay men
as my characters, I didn’t act on the idea-kernel that continued to
plague me for several weeks. But when I kept “seeing” that photo,
especially at night when I was trying to sleep, not to mention that
names for the characters kept playing on an endless loop in my mind,
I simply had to sit and write.
The
opening scene for MIRROR OF OBSESSION
came so easily, it practically wrote itself. In fact, my fingers
couldn’t type fast enough. Then Devin Hughes, the main character,
continued to chatter away at me. It was his idea to bring the
paranormal twist to this book, and it was his idea to create Matthew
Lyons. He didn’t want Brice to be his love interest as I’d
originally planned; he demanded that Matt be his heartthrob and
perfect partner. At this point, I didn’t dare disagree.
Before
I knew it, Devin, Matt, and Brice had taken complete control and the
story was nearing completion. I’m not one that likes cliffhangers,
even in a series, so the way these three ended the story made me
smile. Upon writing THE END, I sat back and smiled. My first
male/male story was complete and under my belt. I couldn’t believe
how easy it had been and was beyond proud with the results. And just
like that, my switch to the male/male genre was born. Simple as that.
This
doesn’t mean that I’ll never write another male/female story (I
already have one with a paranormal element finished that isn’t
available as of yet) but for me, the male/male or, in the case of a
current WIP for my Inked Heat series, the male/male/female category
is my preference. For whatever reason, I find writing the male/male
sex scenes grittier and easier to write.
For
me, as a writer, there is nothing better than having a WIP fly off my
fingertips. Head Game, another title I’m
currently working on, has completely engulfed me. Adam Darling, my
main character in what is turning out to be a raunchy romp, is taking
up most of my waking and sleeping thoughts. In approximately
thirty-two hours total time, I’ve put almost 10,000 words on page
and I couldn’t be happier with the way things are turning out with
this little vignette!
Most
of my currently published books include a fair share of titillating
sex and when a reader or reviewer mentions a particular scene and
their sizzling reaction to it—getting a cold drink, taking a cold
shower, changing their panties, or breaking out their B.O.B.s—I
just sit back and grin. That’s what I aim for!
Some
may wonder how I made the decision to move away from traditional
publishers and give eXcessica a shot. I discovered the hard way that
putting my manuscripts in the hands of others did not work out well
for me. I like the idea of choosing my editor and cover artist. This
way, I’m guaranteed to work with someone I’m compatible with.
Choosing my own release date also works in my favor. I believe having
a recognizable name associated with my latest release has helped
tremendously. Now, I’ll feel much more comfortable self-publishing
some of my other titles.
MIRROR
OF OBSESSION, my newest release as well as
my first foray into the male/male genre and my first publication with
eXcessica Publishing has been reaping four- and five-star reviews. I
do hope you’ll check it out.
Blurb
When
fifteen-year-old Devin Hughes created his phantom lover to help him
keep his sexual identity a secret, he never imagined that Brice would
materialize in the flesh ten years later.
Convinced
that the mind-blowing encounters he had with his hunky specter were
nothing more than fevered hallucinations, Dev attempts to push Brice
to the back of his mind and concentrate on his rising career as an
advertising executive.
With
the help of his newest client, Englishman Matthew Lyons, CEO of Lyons
Security, Devin is able to forget Brice once and for all. Sparks fly
between Dev and Matt, and they speed full-throttle into a
relationship.
During
a month-long separation, Devin struggles with uncertainty and reverts
to his “hurt them before they hurt you” attitude, forcing him to
get a grip and make things right or lose Matt altogether.
When
an obsessed Brice finds out about Devin’s new relationship, his
rage reaches an all-time high. The two men have ruined all his plans,
and he will stop at nothing to reach his goal: harvesting Devin’s
soul.
Will
Devin, with Matthew’s help, find a way to banish Brice forever, or
will they both succumb to the satanic powers of a maniacal demon?
Naughty Excerpt
“I’m
your fantasy. I know everything that pleases you,” crooned Brice as
his hand continued to pump Dev’s cock with firm, sure strokes.
Unable
to fight his misgivings any longer, Devin relaxed, letting the
apparition coaxing his length to life have his wicked way. The meaty
palm caressing his staff stopped after a few minutes. Dev’s
throbbing hard-on stood at attention from his groin as a set of moist
lips latched onto his, forcing his eyes to open at the same time
Brice straddled his hips. Two pools of liquid obsidian met his own
baby blues, and he couldn’t help but shift his hips, begging for
more.
“I’m
going to ride your magnificent cock, Dev. Watch me as I do it.”
Devin
focused on his lover as the man leaned slightly forward, pulled his
ass cheeks apart, and lowered his body. Tight, tingling warmth
surrounded his cock while his gaze flickered and refocused onto Bri’s
steely erection bobbing before him, the domed purple head leaking
profusely. Reaching out, Dev’s hands gripped the sides of the
muscular waist riding his hips and grunted in animalistic
satisfaction.
“Ready
for me to move, Dev?”
“Hell
yes. Do it.”
“As
you wish.” As if in slow motion, Brice began to rock forward and
back, riding the dick nestled in his ass. “So fucking perfect. I
knew your cock would hurt so good, Dev. I just knew it.”
“Uh
huh… don’t stop.”
“I
have no intentions of stopping. Not until you’ve emptied everything
you’ve got deep inside me.”
Brice’s
words were so stimulating, Devin felt himself begin to burn from the
inside out. When Bri picked up the pace of his swaying movements, a
new sensation bombarded him. The walls of his fantasy lover’s rear
passage began to undulate in pulsating waves as if it were some sort
of penis masturbator. Wave after wave of a sensuous rhythm set in,
dragging him closer and closer to blast off.
When
Brice dipped down to tease Devin’s nipple with a swirling tongue,
he felt a hand slide under his left ass cheek, squeezing through the
gap created by the rocking motion. Suddenly, a finger began to
slither inside Dev’s back entrance just before a tiny probe that
felt more like a barb stabbed him right in the prostate. Setting off
a tumultuous chain reaction, it began with his shout of release
followed by jackhammer twitches of his cock, as burst after burst of
his stringy load shot from his vibrating rod. A black hole of ecstasy
opened its maw and swallowed Devin whole, while his entire body
quaked with abandon.
“Oh,
holy fuck, Bri!”
“Take
my dick in your hands, Devin. Stroke me off while you empty yourself
in my ass. I want my cum to coat your sinful body,” commanded
Brice.
Doing
as instructed, Dev grasped Brice’s impressively hard length with
shaky hands, squeezing and stroking the vein-covered stalk, using the
clear molten fluid leaking from the slit to make the carnal massage
smoother and easier.
“That’s
it. Grip me harder, squeeze me like a vise.”
