Do you write
under a pen name? Have you uncovered the author behind the pen name before?
Under my
non-pen name, I've been at the writing game for 15+ years and built up a very
solid base of friends, authors, and readers.
I'm stuck!
Although some of my family already know this pen name, I haven't told many of my friends and only one or two readers. Why? Well, Erotica is very different from what I normally write.

While some
authors don't mind using their name under all genres of writing, I knew when I wrote Taming
Rydin, I had to come up
with a pen name so I wouldn't confuse the readers. My "other" writing
credits include YA, NA, and some Romance & SciFi, but none of them come
close to being erotic, despite some steamy NSFW scenes. :-)
I've also
considered "outting" myself, because I'm not embarrassed by my
Erotica, but I figured I could keep the two separate to see the difference in
sales as well, because they say sex sells, I want to see if they are right! :-)
The story
for Taming
Rydin had been rolling
around inside my head for about a year before I decided to give it a go and try
to write it. The basic concept was a twist on fairy tales, but in space with
aliens. I had the idea of having an alien prince rescue a human woman and
eventually have them fall in love. The erotica part came when I started
thinking how different a alien’s sex drive might be, and Rydin was born.
I thoroughly
enjoyed writing it and even have begun working a second story involving Rydin’s
brother, Maxix. It’s a blast!!

Decadent Excerpt:
“Think of me
as your slave, Nova.”
Although my
body shuddered at the idea of being master to this male, my mind fought it. “I
would never—” He leaned close and inhaled, responding to my reaction. His
breath warmed my lips. “Even if I ask it?”
“I will not
torture you, Warrior.” I shuddered.
He laughed,
head shaking, gaze roving lower, darkening as it moved down my body. “No
torture, my female, a simple way for you to contain me so I don’t keep you in
my bed eternally. I don’t know what will happen after I release my seed in you.
I may crave less, possibly more. You will have the power to chain me should I
overstep.”
“You think
it will be needed?”
Rydin wet
his lips, smirked. “I was less than half through with you by the lake. I worry
with good reason. I’ve been called insatiable.”
“Perhaps the
problem is the lack of quality and seeking sheer quantity,” I said, placed my
hands on his forearms. “I am nothing like your girls, Warrior.”
“Oh, this I
know, Nova, it’s the cause for my stipulations. Do you agree?”
“If it is
needed, and you truly wish it, I will chain you.”
