Victorian Sex: My Secret Life (Part 2)

Who was Walter?

In order to answer this question, we need to establish if there is indeed a question here to answer.

Uh, what?

Well, is My Secret Life an autobiography or a work of fiction? If it is a work of fiction, then trying to ascertain who Walter was is moot. If it is autobiographical, then someone (or perhaps several someones) wrote it, and, the question then becomes, who? Continue reading

Works in Progress: Confessions

I thought about making a separate Works in Progress page, but I like the idea of a blog post so I can update my progress occasionally and followers can, well, follow along. Plus, I’ve got some confessions about one of those WIPs… Continue reading

Submitting: Resources for Erotic Short Story Submissions

[Note: I am no longer updating this Short Story Submissions Resources page.]

So far this year, I have submitted four short stories to various editors. I have one more looking for a home, so I diligently peruse calls for submissions. Most calls for short stories are very specific – e.g., zombies, sex at work, Christmas – and since my unsubbed story is already written, I have to find an appropriate call.

I’ll admit that I never thought I would be able to write an erotic story based on someone else’s prompt. Sexy is subjective, isn’t it? Some things just simply do not turn me on. One of the calls did turn me on, so I plunged in (my hero did some plunging in of his own, too). Continue reading

Querying

Today, I’m participating in a publisher pitch in an online discussion forum. It’s a little nerve-racking waiting for feedback. But I won’t write about that. I’ve been looking into querying and have a few links to share. Continue reading

Giving back

Since I became a writer, I have only encountered generosity amongst fellow writers: Encouragement, advice, willingness to listen, shared enthusiasm when something goes right, a spirit of giving. I suspect it comes from the knowledge that we are colleagues, not competitors. This is true especially for genre writers, especially romance, where readers and fans read voraciously — a book a week, the more exuberant amongst them a book a day.

That’s a lot of books.

So, the purpose of my blog will be not only to tell you about what’s going on with my writing and promote new releases. I want to honor that spirit of giving and give back via encouragement, writing tips, and useful (or fun) resources that I hope will be interesting to both readers and writers.
