Hi, everyone!
I’m
L.M. Mountford.
I’m
an erotica author, but please don’t judge me by that alone. I’m
also trying to break into dark romance, historical action and sci-fi/
fantasy. Honestly though, I’m interested in any plot that involves
sex and violence. They make up some of the greatest stories in my
opinion. A story is like any portrait, it needs to be made up of many
colours, but make sure it has these two and you’re bound to be a
susses.
I
wrote my first story when I was 14 or 15. A fan fiction story that I
posted online. I’m something of a anime aficionado you see, and
like any little boy, my mind had a tendency to wander. After that it
wasn’t long before I moved into the erotica genre, after all, what
is it a boy that age thinks about, and I have been in the genre ever
since.
Although
I’d never really thought about self-publishing, it occurred to me
when I was 21 after running across the Kindle section of Amazon and
seeing how many short stories had been published and were selling. It
was something of an eye opener. Until then, I’d thought KDP was for
novels. Shortly after, I wrote and published Sweet
Temptations: The Babysitter.
I’d thought that would be the hard part, but after publishing I cam
to realise it was only the beginning. Not only that, but I was
woefully unprepared.
My
second book is called Confessions, and if I thought ST: The
Babysitter was a journey, well, Confessions made it look like
a walk in the park. It began as a commission, the principle seemed
easy, I accepted, thinking it might only take 6 months. Instead it
took almost 2 years. But then I had to convert it, that required
another year. I’d only got a third of way through by then, but I’d
slipped into a habit of writing for the sake of it because I thought
it could be better and was pouring out purple prose by the page.
Having already missed two due dates and literally on the 11th
hour of the third, my editor gave me a kick up the arse. “Post it
to me tonight, or I can’t accept it until June (this was in
February). So I made my choice, pulled out all the notes I’d jotted
down, and added them in before closing the book on it forever and
emailing it over. Aside from her revisions and few scenes inspired by
her notes, I haven’t touched it since. This is something of a
double edged sword of course, there were parts of the story that
could have been expanded on, but I don’t regret posting it. If I
hadn’t, I might still be working on it now.
I
don't mind saying Confessions was the bane of my life for two
years. I was beset by writer's block to such a degree that I thought
my skull my split in half at times.That being said, I'm glad I wrote
it. The story challenged me to many degrees as I can honestly say
I've never written a M/M/M/M/F scene before.
Unfortunately,
despite my best efforts, some of the scenes have caused some distress
due to triggers and that has caused it to be critically received. A
hard ending to something that was quite a hard time in my life as
this work tested my resolve and skill and made me think hard about if
I’m truly meant to be a writer.
I
still have a great deal of personal doubt, but i took the bull by the
horns and I’m still here…

Title:
Confessions
Genre:
Erotica, Menage
Synopsis
Sylvia
Day meets Colleen Masters in this sizzling erotic thrill ride of lust
and sex and self-discovery that will leave readers wanting more.
What
is the measure of love? How far would you go to save the one you want
but know you can never truly have?
Mina
Carring is a woman that has given up on love. A rising star in the
bright lights of Hollywood, men come and go from her life, passing
like ships in the night, yet there is only one for her, the one she’d
let slip away because she shouldn't want her stepbrother that way.
But is it really so wrong to want someone, just because her father
married his mother? However, when he is filmed in a compromising
position that could ruin his life, Mina must step in. Now, powerless
to escape as she heads down this path of lust and desire, torn
between the dark delights of the handsome bad boy down the street and
her adorable stepbrother who has always been there for her, she must
confront the truth she has long tried to bury...
A
full length, 40,000+ word novel, Confessions is the stand-alone
erotic drama from the Author of the sinfully delicious, Sweet
Temptations Trilogy. Warning! It contains adult themes, harsh
language, and graphic content and descriptions that might be
disturbing to some readers.
This is a taboo/forbidden read that is full of steamy pages and a incredible plot. This is definitely not for anyone under 18 as there are some highly charged sex scenes that are WOW! This is not the typical stepbrother story it’s so much more. - hellmouthsbookblogreviews.com
The plot was fresh and the sex scenes were definitely hot enough to melt my Kindle. - Lynn Cooper, author of The Dominant Seduction Series
This is one of those forbidden step-brother romances with an especially dark twist. I know I definitely didn't see it going in the direction it went. Suspenseful? Uh, yea. Sexy? Absolutely. - alwayslovemesomebooks.blogspot.com

Well
there is just enough time left for me to tell you about my future
projects. Or at least the main ones.
I
currently writing a four part Futanari story, again another
commission that i will be turning into an original work. It tells the
story of a woman who’s body is changing after an accident, and she
finds herself fighting the urges brought out in her by the presence
of the daughter of her father’s friend, who’s staying with her so
she can keep an eye on her while her father away.
I'm
also experimenting with a bit of contemporary romance, I'm not sure
if it will have a future but it has potential to be more than just
another standalone short-story. It’s the story of a man visiting a
past love who left him out of the bloom but has now got back in
touch.
Finally,
this one is my break into mainstreaming, a historical adventure
novel. The thrilling adventure set on the slopes of Victorian Natel
amidst the blood and chaos of the Zulu-Angola war.
