A Day in The Life Of An Erotic
Author
My days are spent like any other
erotic author...nothing special really. But, let me first squelch any myths
that may have evolved over the years. Yes, it’s true, erotic romance authors
have a stereotype following.
Myth: All
erotic romance authors are addicted to having sex all the time.
Fact: We may
think about sex, write about sex and talk about sex all the time...but in
reality, we're too tired for sex.
Why? We
promote, write and have a 24/7 job..simply...we ARE tired.
Myth: Every
scene we write in our novels we have performed, witnessed or participated in-
that's why the scenes are so descriptive.
Fact: No. We
just have a very creative imagination. Maybe some of us have experienced these
incidents, but not me.
Why? First
off, I'm a female, so anatomically I cannot perform M/M scenes and vice versa
for male erotic authors with F/F scenes. *NOTE: Plus we're tired.
Myth: Erotic
authors' wardrobes consist of lingerie, sexy short skirts and provocative
clothing.
Fact: We sit
at our computer desks in our ratty pajamas, usually no make-up, uncombed hair
and maybe showered before noon . We have a cup of cold coffee next
to us because no one is around to refill it for us.
Why? Because
we live double lives. The one you read, and assume we are, and the one actually
are.
Myth: We are
on the prowl for our next sex scene and novel idea wherever we are...OK, I'll
give you that one but don't ask us to name a character after you...
So there it is ladies and
gents...what a real erotic author's day is like. But let's not forget the
laundry, the dishes, the kids and family and most importantly, a shower before noon .

Bewitching the Sheriff
Blurb-
Sadie Callaghan is a self-proclaimed
healer and ancestor of Wiccans. Always the local outcast, she finds herself at
the center of hate crimes and a suspect in various criminal offenses.
Under the
tight scrutiny of Sheriff Walt Malone, she needs to prove her innocence before
her stalker can harm her. The threat to her life increases when local religious
leaders attack her verbally. Can Malone save her before the real assailant gets
to her, or does he still believe that she is the perpetrator? Time is running
out as the two turn to each other.
