Those
of you who are familiar with my stories in the Naughty Literati anthologies
know that I don’t stay with one genre.
My stories have included several contemporary (usually with some level
of BDSM), a couple of paranormals, and one historical. If you’re familiar with
my Ellora’s Cave books (before they were pulled) you know that I’ve written in
a number of genres, everything from Medieval historicals to science fiction.
As
career moves go, it’s not the best. Conventional wisdom says that readers like
to read the same kinds of books from their favorites. I even know it’s true that I’ve neglected
stories from some of my own favorite authors when they ventured into genres I
don’t read or subject areas I avoid.
But
I’ve found that the writing variety is necessary for me. I simply can’t do the same type of story
over and over again. My muse leads me in all directions and I have to follow or
I end up staring at a blank screen for way too long.
So
instead of writing nothing, I let my imagination take me where it will and when
it will. I write the stories I have to write, not the ones that marketers tell
me I need to write.
Right
now, though, I’m working on re-releasing previously published stories that I’ve
got rights back to. Fortunately, there are quite a few of them. And one advantage is that I can now group
them by category and genre. The first
batch I’m republishing were not considered a series at EC, but they are
inter-related: my contemporary BDSM, menage stories.
The
first two of the Suburban Dominants stories, Dominant Boys of Summer
and Nick’sLady, are already available. More are coming soon! This is a series made up of a couple of
shorts stories, several full-length novels and a novella. Each story is
self-contained, connected by the characters, though each story focuses on a
different couple.
On
March 31st, the third story in the series, Charming the Masters,
released. This one is a short story with strong BDSM and menage elements. I hope to get out the fourth, a full-length
novel, Kyle’s Bargain in May, and then the novella, Cilla’s
Master in June or July. The last one in the group is a Christmas story,
Secret
Santa Sir, so I’d like to have it out later in the year. I have covers
for all of them except the Christmas story. I’m excited about the look my cover
designer gave this series.
Blurb for Charming the Masters:
The amulet Lindy wears to the club’s Halloween party is imbued with a love
charm intended to snag the attention of the man who’s most right for her in the
room. She’s looking for a really masterful man, and she’s convinced Rick Lowery
is the one. Rick does respond to her, but so does his friend, Kyle Harrison. Is
she woman enough to handle submitting to both of them? And what will happen
when she has to confess to them what she’s done?
I’ve
had a lot of fun with these characters.
I hope I get a chance to visit them in a new story or two sometime soon.
