For some reason, my romantic honeymoon first-time pegging story To Have and To Hold has sold multiple copies on Amazon this month after having a relatively quiet year. I wish I knew what’s gone right, because I don’t think it’s anything I’m responsible for. I can’t find evidence of someone else reviewing or linking to […]

A rotisserie of knifeplay
I never thought of myself as a Halloween girl, not like some Halloween folks I know, but I have always been into ghost stories and uncanny magic. Now six of my stories on those topics are collected in The Season, which comes out October 1. (But if you’re already in a Halloween mood, you can […]
Continue Reading....Can’t stop, won’t stop making cover art
Canva.com and Unsplash are miracles of the modern age. Plus, frankly, really fun to play with. Maybe a little addictive? Here are some almost-final drafts of covers I’ve designed for the books I’m releasing and re-releasing over the next few months (the Muse has inspired me to get publishing again with that expensive auto repair): […]
Continue Reading....A thrilling week: three broken things, four story collections, 350 miles and a submissions deadline
Some of the thrills were great, some…less so. The last week of submissions for Cunning Linguists saw an outpouring of some fantastic smut. My co-editors and I are still reading through it. If you submitted, you SHOULD have received a “Thank you, we received it!” kind of response from us. If you didn’t, please query. […]
Continue Reading....“Coming Soon” is no longer coming: it’s here!
Today is the release day for Coming Soon, which includes my femdom menage story, “Exceptional Service.” This piece was cooked up after dinner with my partner at a rather nice establishment with a waitress who was attentive enough…but mostly to him. And she did that thing many waitstaff do, giving my credit card back…to him. Presumably because he […]
Continue Reading....Some exciting Erato updates
Also: I’ll let my Twitter speak for itself as this has been a wild week (mostly vaccinated family members from across the country got to finally meet in person, minor car accident, sporadic internet access, unexpected deadlines). 😀
Continue Reading....One year
So yeah, it’s one year to the day. This morning while my coffee brewed I lit some candles, re-arranged my girlfriend’s urn and picture and pennies on my bookshelf. Last night I had a dream we were texting each other and he was okay, he’d just withdrawn for a while. I’m not great about big […]
Continue Reading....Proud Editor Moment – the Good Sex Awards
I texted my sister last night, “Just had a panel of like 25 sexperts agree with my editorial decisions twice. (Two stories from Erato are Good Sex Award finalists.) Feels great!” And it does. I’m actually not sure of the number of sexperts involved–the Good Sex Awards has an awe-inspiring list of judges, some of […]
Continue Reading....A new kinky story is free to read on Lascivity
At Lascivity, with its delicious tagline “literate kink,” I have a new story up. It’s one that does a few things…different from my usual. A fun experiment. She’s taken a week of paid time off for this. To stay at home. With him. Doing practically nothing. Wearing nothing. It’s the third day, early afternoon. Sunlight […]
Continue Reading....National Poetry Month
April is National Poetry Month, so I’m going to pretend that’s the reason I’ve lately been reading and posting a lot of poetry on my Tumblr. Actually it’s a happy coincidence. I’ve rediscovered poetry, as I do every few years, and this spring I’m making more of an effort to share about the books I […]
