They are my publisher and I've been with them for years. I've never had any complaints before. If you give me more details I'd be happy to approach them on your behalf.
I can't provide a print copy, but if all else fails I would be happy to give you an ebook copy.

Hi Darlene. I apologise for not answering sooner but I didn't spot these questions until today.
That story has been published as part of an anthology titled "Pink and Scarlet". It should be available on Amazon soon, but right now it is for sale here:

I'm sorry I haven't replied, but I really didn't see these questions until now.
I would guess that you've found Simplicity on the BDSM group by now. But if you want that story and others as an ebook, it is now available in an anthology entitled "Pink and Scarlet" and available here:
http://www.a1adultebooks.com/ebooks/b...
It may possibly be available on BDSMBOOKS too.

I hope it will be on Amazon as well in the near future.
Thank your for your interest.

No, never. In fact the more I write, the more interested I get in real life sex. Writing erotica is never a chore to me, but a realisation of the visions and desires that reside somewhere deep in my mind.
I started writing erotica because I really wanted to see my ideas and fantasies laid out in print so that they could be shared with others of similar mind and tastes.
Perhaps the question to ask yourself, is whether you actually enjoy writing erotica, and whether the kind of erotica you write really is in tune with your own preferences and desires. Are you shaping your writing to suit what you perceive to be what the market wants, or are you putting out your own fantasies and desires in a modified form?

Sorry, didn't see this until today.
While all the male MC have a bit of me in them, I think probably Parker from Paradigm Shift, because the story allows the MC to respond and react quite freely, unbound by social restraints or custom. He is a stranger in a strange land and thus his eccentricities are excused.
People are often restricted by laws and society so their behaviour is largely what is expected or allowed. Parker on the other hand, is torn between a world that gives him complete license to treat women any way he likes, and his own sense of natural justice and kindness.

The discovery that the state of slavery and the source of slaves in the Caribbean and the non-Spanish colonies in the Americas during the years that Port Royal was a major pirate stronghold was very different from the later, more famous slave trade.

I'm finishing up my next novel "Port Royal" and novel about privateers, pirates and slaves, all in the greatest pirate city of the era. Sexy women, swords fights, and flying cannon balls.

I've enjoyed writing ever since I knew there was such a thing. The stories and characters fill my head and float in my imagination all the time.
Unlike many authors, I write based on "stories" or plots that I want to tell, or situations that I want to explore. The "what if" ...? I don't create characters who run off with seeming lives of their own. It is always the story that comes first for me.

Wanting to write isn't enough, nor is simply knowing all the basics and techniques. You must have stories that you want to tell, stories or subjects that you feel strongly about and "know" deep inside you that what you have to say is different and interesting.
It is incredibly difficult and time consuming to write and write well. Expecting to be carried along by the muse and for words to just flow from your fingertips will not work for most. Writing is a craft, a skill, just like wood carving, painting, or martial arts. You have to put in the time and the sweat to be good.
Self doubt is corrosive and not helpful. Write first, and finish your work. There will be lots of people ready to tell you whether you have created anything worth reading.

The best thing about being a writer is that I get to see stories that I feel passionate about told in the way I want it to be and actually made available to the public. If I didn't think I could do some things differently and better than other writers, I wouldn't write.
That does not imply that I think I am superior to all other authors.

I never experience what people call "writer's block". Of course I have times when I need to struggle with a plot point, who to kill, how relationships work out etc. but I've never been faced with a situation that I couldn't continue/complete a W.I.P.
That is not the same as the occasional moment of laziness of course! :)
