Nobody’s Perfect

imagesI love my family so much and would never trade them for the world, but I HATE watching TV or movies when both my daughter and husband are in the room. They are huge talkers and love to gab through the most important and/or intense scenes. This drives me crazy. The other option we have come up with is pausing while they have their philosophical conversation, but that too kills it for me. Like when reading a book, I like to lose myself in the story and the constant starting and stopping makes it very hard for me to do so. Forget it if it’s a show they really don’t like, then the conversation floodgates are open.

In the scheme of things in creating a life together and a loving family, the above matters very little. I bring this up because NOBODY is perfect. I’m certainly not. Continue reading

Guest Blog: SecretErotica.com – The story, the goals, the ambitions.

Please give a warm welcome to Jack Hunter who is guest blogging today.

670-free-membershipJust over a year ago I (Jack) was reading a book called “My Secret Garden” by Nancy Friday. The book is a collection of female fantasies. They were collected by the author and then collated into a book, which gives a fascinating insight in the secret fantasy lives of women.

The book really got me thinking, I thought about how keen these ladies seemed to talk about their fantasy lives. How varied and in some cases extreme their fantasies were. I realized that even though this book was written in the 1970’s things still haven’t changed that much. Women are still judged for enjoying sex, they are still treated as sexual objects and they are still to some extent sexually repressed.

I talked this through with an old friend (Lola now my partner at Secret Erotica) and she started to complain about the low quality of erotica sites on online and also about the fact that they were all so female-unfriendly with lots of annoying guys on them.

That’s when the idea for Secret Erotica came about. We decided to create an amazing online community for ourselves and the rest of the world to enjoy free from misogyny and horny internet pests! Continue reading

My Writing Process – Blog Tour

profile_picToday is my turn for Blog Tour Day. This blog tour is a site where writers and authors answer questions about their writing process. My friend ELR Jones posted his last week. You can check out her writing process here: Life in “E” motion

Blakely’s Friday Interview with Meredith Wild

Please give a warm welcome to Meredith Wild, author of Hardpressed.

venusTell us a bit about yourself and what you’re currently working on or promoting.
I’m currently promoting the sequel in my Hacker Series, Hardpressed, and I’m working on a new novel, On My Knees, which will be the first in the Bridge Family trilogy that will highlight the stories of three siblings in a seemingly perfect family and their romantic adventures.

What genre is your book? Do you write in other genres as well?
Right now I’m exclusively working in the erotic romance genre. I do plan to venture out of it at some point. I’m not sure when though, because I am having an awful lot of fun writing angsty smut at the moment. Continue reading

Oh, the Anticipation!

bianca-van-der-weft_anticipationStuck in Between is in the hands of reviewers and my street team, and I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for the verdict. The anticipation is like after going on a great first date and waiting for him/her to call. It’s really not a horrible place to be, more like a mix of titillation and abject fear. LOL!

I’m fighting with myself over giving into the excitement because of the worry over the fall. I’m standing on the edge of the cliff, not knowing if I will fly or crash. There is something rather exhilarating about that. Continue reading

Blakely’s Friday Interview with E.L.R. Jones

Please give a warm welcome to E.L.R. Jones, author of The Norton Sisters: Rayna.

Hades Mistress book coverTell us a bit about yourself and what you’re currently working on or promoting. 
My Author pen is E.L.R. Jones (yes, these are my actual given initials-lol). I am new to the published Author scene, but I have 4 works out and available for purchase.  I have been writing since I was 14. My latest work is Hades Mistress which is due to release on March 14th. I am excited about this piece because I truly love Greek Mythology.

What genre is your book? Do you write in other genres as well?
This book falls in the Contemporary Romance genre. Yes, I do.  I have a poetry book and I have a few Paranormal Romance novels to come.  Most of my books deal with some form of interracial relationship though.
