Interview with Scarlet Risque on Red Hourglass on Smashwords
Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
I am from the society where pain and pleasure are at the extremes. In an extreme capitalist utopian society where top down decisions are made daily. On the outside, it looks like a wonderland. In the inside, suicide rates are high. This has influenced my views on writing the Hourglass Series.
What’s the story behind your latest book?
Wow. I think there is so much that goes on behind the Red Hourglass. I would prefer the reader discover it for themselves.
When did you first start writing?
As a child, I wrote in secret locked diaries and randomly on my textbook. A teacher spotted my writings and she said I have a talent for creative writing. However, I never won any creative writing competitions over the years despite competing in them. But still, I continued to write on a daily basis and never stopped writing.
What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
Peace.
What do your fans mean to you?
It validates that they love my work, especially my knights and minions at the Scarlet Queen YouTube channel. I believe that the Hourglass Series will continue to enthrall my fans into entering my world of pain and pleasure.
What are you working on next?
The Ocra, the sequel to the Red Hourglass will be released next Halloween, October 2016.
I will be releasing more short stories and poetry compilations over the next few months as well.
What inspires you to get out of bed each day?
Love gives me the courage to get out of bed.
Music allows me to see the beauty of life
Creating gives me the ultimate gratification for my soul
When you’re not writing, how do you spend your time?
As strange as this sounds – I am a dancer. I know most writers aren’t dancers and vice versa. Dancing is my greatest hobby as I don’t do it competitively. I fall in love with the dance floor each day, and dance my days and blues away. I am better at solo dancing like contemporary and modern dance, I am still taking lessons for partner dancing such as tango, salsa, bachata, swing etc. There is no end to the dance journey. It is the greatest joy in my life to be able to dance, write and act – at the fullest expression of my artistry.
Describe your desk
Crystals, hand written journals, aromatherapy, lots of manuscripts with highlights on them. Two cups of half drunk coffee – one hot and one cold. A cookie jar, a bag of nuts and a yoga ball under my Aeron chair. My set up is an iMac with a connecting side screen. There are about twenty window tabs open. My iPhone is on top of my Razer keyboard and logitech mouse. When I was younger, I was a competitive gamer and lead top guilds in World of Warcraft and Ragnarok. I sold my gaming laptop to become a full time writer/entrepreneur. I never looked back. I have no regrets.
On my book shelf across me – Robert Greene’s Art of Seduction, which I keep by my side at all times no matter where I am. As a woman, I believe my greatest power lies in understanding that book which I had read and revised over more than fifty times.
What motivat
ed you to become an indie author?
The ultimate freedom to do what I want based on my own terms.
What is your writing process?
I go by my schedule which I set milestones daily. I usually start off by replying emails, and I will read some articles. After that I will do about two hours of research into the topic I am interested in. I would write for about two – four hours a day. If I am not writing, I would be watching movies and film actors and observing their movements and story line. I will occasionally write flash fiction and my analysis on what I watch on http://averral.com for fun. I love my profession as an artist, and I never regard it as work, but as a computer game that I must score to win.

Interview with Scarlet Queen – Creator
The elusive Scarlet Queen answers some questions in this interview as part of her milestone of having over a million views on YouTube.
Q: Tell us about yourself
A: I am the creator behind Scarlet Queen YouTube and author of the Red Hourglass (Romance Thriller) Series. Very few authors have a successful YouTube channel (such as John Green, creator of VlogBrothers and author of Fault in Our Stars). But I am trying to defy the odds and make it possible to BOTH have a YouTube channel and a Thriller Novel Series. The biggest asset to my future book publications is my ability to act, dance and do voice recordings of my writings.
Q: What do you do exactly?
A: I am an entrepreneur at heart with a degree in business. I was a consultant. I had decided to devote my life to my artistry as of April 2015 on a full time basis. I have no regrets.
Q: What does the Scarlet Queen do?
A: She is an artist, she creates worlds. There are thousands of minions watching her daily, and soon she will release her novels and gain momentum on pursuing her artistry in full force as the scarlet throne materialises as the series hit full production scale. It’s her grand design in the making.
Q: Tell us more about Risque
A: The Dark Queen Risque is the villain in the series. She is very powerful and thousands of minions had fallen under her control. However Cheryl is trying to conquer Risque and her darkness.
Q: I can see myself falling for the Dark Queen
A: Of course… who wouldn’t want to be in her kingdom of pain and pleasure? She only inflicts pain in the form of pleasure. Cheryl on the other hand inflicts pleasure in the form of pain. They are polar opposites.
Q: How does this transfer into real life? What is fact and what is fiction?
Goodness knows me. Sometimes I ask myself that question. The Dark Lord of my life is merciless. I am glad to find my Knight Damon. who is an avid fan of the series. He had helped me become much more expressive after his message/stories on the worship wall resonated with me.
Q: How does one seek the ultimate pain and pleasure?
A: Submission is the highest level of love.
Q: How can a Knight such as Damon seek the ultimate submissive experience?
A: He has to leave everything behind and believe in my way. Only then he will realise he true self and purpose. He will be everything that he dreamt of, as he leaves his old shadow life behind as he embraces himself for who he is, that he is meant for bigger, greater things… that will impact the world for the better.. under the loving guiding hands of the Scarlet Queen of course. They say, behind a great man is a great woman. I believe I am that woman. I am awaiting that man to take up that challenge and submit to me fully.
Q: There is only one man who will fully submit?
A: Yes, there is only one Knight out of all the thousands of knights who tried and failed who fully submits to me. The rest are just minions or speculators of the grand show. They can find the Scarlet Queen of their lives if they understand the SQ series.
Q: What is the reward?
A: The reward? Everything they ever dream of – romance, love, sex, wealth, endless pleasures, the elusive dream life… will all materialise and come true.
Q: How far will Scarlet go?
A: How far? Her videos and books are testament on how far she would go.
Q: You are gi
ving your first book, Red Hourglass, for free on the 30th October 2015?
A: Yes, it will be available for free to download on all major ebook platforms such as Amazon, Kobo and iBooks.
Q: Thank you. I think I had fallen in love with you through your videos.
A: The pleasure is all mine.

The Scarlet Throne – Princess Cheryl Awakes
In the dark caverns there was nothing left. Not a sound, not any steps. Pure darkness shrouded me, and enveloped all my senses. In the distance I saw a flicker of light on top of the caverns. A flicker from the stars above. Glittery stars fell into sparkles of star dust into the caverns. The chains melted away under the star dust, as I felt my arms and legs. The dust covered my naked body in glitter star powder. The wounds and red marks on my body started to heal as the healing dust went into my skin. It was a special kind of star dust, one that can magically heal and dissolve anything that it touches. The star dust reflected light around the caverns in sparkles. I felt for my hair. My hair had grown much longer since I last touched them. I felt for my face; it was smooth to touch. I felt for my knees, they were no longer numb. I stood up slowly, and carefully, as I had not stood for ages.
As I rose to stand, dawn broke. The sun started to rise from the distance. The large sun melted the caverns around me into a orange bright glow. The energy from the sun regenerated my veins, my blood started flowing through my body. I felt for the center of my chest for my heart beat, feeling the aliveness of being reborn. The orange glow from the sun melted the ground, as I was transported into another realm.
The new realm was filled with trees, star dust and sunlight. There was a castle, which was made of diamonds, with a marble white bridge arched over a flowing translucent rainbow river. By the river, was a knight in silver armour. He was kneeling on a knee, his head bowed low as I approached him.
“Princess Cheryl, you had arrived,”
“What is happening?”
“You had awoken, your knights await for your command,” he looked up at me with his dark brown eyes.
“What is your name?”
“Knight Damon.”
“Did you… save me?”
“Not at all,” he looked down at my feet. “The pleasure is not mine. You are the Princess, Cheryl. I am a lowly Knight, not deserving of any honour of mention. You had awoken from the darkness, for you believed in hope. I am filled with admiration for your courage. If you want to reach the Scarlet Throne, you have to conquer Risque. You have to control your darkness.
“You mean Risque and the Dark Lord who had me chained in the caverns?”
“Yes. I am sorry I wasn’t there to rescue you my Princess. I had waited all my life for this day that you will finally arrive. I am dutifully bound to serve you. The Dark Lord and minions did not recognise that you are needed to conquer the Scarlet Throne. You, Princess Cheryl, holds the key to the throne and all the hearts of the knights and minions in this kingdom of pain and pleasure.”
“I.. hold the key? How am I to conquer the throne?”
“If you want to conquer the Scarlet Throne, you have to accept that you are both the Dark Queen Risque and Princess Cheryl.
“That’s impossible! I can never be the Dark Queen.”
“Your knights and minions await for that day. As of now, please take my key.”
He took out a golden key from the breast pocket inside his armour.
“Chain it to your heart, and remember that I, and all knights in your kingdom are bound to serve you for eternity in your quest to reach the Scarlet Throne.”

In that moment, we were neither Queen or Knight, just a man and woman in love.
Lying supine on the battlefield, my strength failed even to lift my head as my face lies flat into the mud. How fitting for your lowly Knight to live his last hour in this way. It reminded me of our secret moment by the river. As the Great Queen, you must appear without feeling. You mustn’t show any tenderness or love. I remember that sweet day. You entered my bed chamber and slapped me in the face while I slept. “Wake up” Before I grabbed my knife, thinking I was being attacked, you pinned my hands to the bed. Lying pinned with a trickle of blood along my face from your slap I asked, “To what do I owe this pleasure?” “Follow me”
We traversed through underground passages. Could it be I was finally selected for Madame’s sexual exploits? I always heard about her “tea parties”. These parties involved a line of men kneeling before her for hours on the floor while she sat quietly drinking tea. Then she decides which one to fuck; she fucks them. It’s called pegging. The Great Madame is a virgin; no one is worthy of her.
We arrived in an open field. No line of kneeling men here. What is happening? No other lights around, brings out the milky way in such splendor. “Get on the horse.” I mounted it. Suddenly, a tender look appeared on her face. No longer was she a Dark Queen but my sweet lady of the moonlight. She extended her hand delicately. I pulled her up and placed her behind me. She grabbed my waist and we began to ride. “Take me away from here,” as she rested her head on my shoulders.
I rode to the river. You know where to find it. At night it emits a flowery aroma. I jumped off the horse and kneel. My lady stepped on my shoulder and as an accident of the moment my hand slid underneath her dress. Thinking I would die now because of this, she instead placed her hand on my hand as I touched her bare skin. She then held my arm and we walked along the river in the moonlight. Her head rested on my shoulder. In that moment, we were neither Queen or Knight, just a man and woman in love.
As we walked, we approached a series of stepping stones. I stopped. One slip and we end up in the water. I couldn’t have this for my Queen. “No, take me.” She grabbed my arm tighter as I guided us along the stepping stones in the river. Suddenly, her foot caught between two rocks. She screamed a little and I quickly knelt below her to support her weight. I took a handkerchief and wrapped around her ankle. I didn’t want to touch my lady’s bare skin again. She giggled as I pulled her foot out of the rocks.
I stood up and while almost slipping into the water behind her, I grabbed her waist. I pulled her close to me and our faces met. I think only Madame’s nanny had ever been this close. I smelled her breath – sweet and intoxicating. Our lips drew closer. Her mouth opened just a little to invite me. Do you know that softness you feel from lips for the first time? The wetness of her mouth invited me further. I gently extended my tongue and touched the tip of hers with mine. Opening her mouth further, my tongue met hers inside her mouth. I pressed her closely to me as we tasted each other.
I did not go further. Even though my mind undressed her a thousand times, I did not reveal any part of her. I picked her up and carried her. I held her as we walked along the river back to the horse. In silence, we just looked at each other. I lifted her back on the horse and sat behind her. Embracing her from behind we rode back.
Before we arrived at the palace she suddenly said “Stop”. “Give me your handkerchief.” She took it and threw it on the ground. Reaching into her breast, she pulled out another. It looked like this (https://www.google.com/culturalinstitute/asset-viewer/handkerchief/gQHBDdkHvUwarA?projectId=art-project). “I made this after my first bleeding when I finally became a woman. Hold it with you always.” I placed it my shirt under my armor above my heart. Knowing we were going back, I got off the horse and knelt on the ground. Madame gave me the leash that I put around my neck. We returned to the palace through the front gate as I crawled on all fours.
So there I lay on the battlefield. I was pierced, just proximal to the apex of my heart. Blood spilled underneath my armor. I was too weak to pull it off. I reached into my chest plate and there lied my lady’s handkerchief. I pulled it out. Blood drained under the armor of my arm and onto the handkerchief. I saw my love again. She met me by the river holding my arm. As I met her lips with mine again, I drifted into blackness.

Dark Queen Risque on The Scarlet Throne
Never felt this before, I heard a voice calling me from distance, how to escape from it, where to go. Nowhere to escape, I follow this magic voice and I saw her on the Scarlet Throne
“Kneel before me Minion”, she order” I am the Dark Queen Risque, submit to me, you have no choice”
My legs disobey me and I find myself on my knees before her, my mind had one though, to worship her to obey every command
“I know all about you, all your sins, and now you belong to me, worship me now and forever Minion”,
Once again I fall more and more into her power, I know now I have the honour to be choose by the mighty Dark Queen Risque, where ever I am , I can stop thinking of her, obey her, worship her
Even in my dreams she rules my world , and my desires.
From now and forever, I am your minion, or how you will to call me
Mademoiselle, I sign in, and offer you my body and soul
Minion pet

Transformation from Minion to Knight
The dagger pointed at my neck. Why didn’t the target just push the blade into my flesh?
I joined the assassin guild after losing my love. Other girls in the village, gathered flowers, sewed dresses, played the 二胡. The day I brought my girl flowers, she threw them in my face, flipped me over and pinned me to the ground. “I’m not a flowers girl in case you haven’t noticed.”
Wrestling became our routine. Typically the loser, her parents thought she acquired a servant who regularly cleaned her horse. She called me, “寶寶”. Some days it meant that I was “her precious little girl”. Other days I was her baby but not in the tender sort of way. Additionally as punishment for losing to her, I followed her into the abandoned castle where she made me crawl on the stone floor as she yelled, “寶寶起来!”, from across the great hall.
As we grew older, pauses developed during our regular wrestling. She stopped all of a sudden and stared at me. I never noticed her eyes before. Round and dark, captivating like the moon. Her black hair veiled her face. I drew closer to her mouth. We consumed each others’ breath until I closed her mouth with my lips. We held each other by the river until falling asleep.
The next morning, I woke up alone by that river. The silhouette of her figure marked the mud, confirming to me I was not dreaming. After that night, however, I never saw her. Her parents never explained what happened. I was her 寶寶, but my treasure was gone forever.
That’s when I joined the assassin guild. Since, I died with her, I never wanted to love another. All assassins meet their last day at some point. Mine was about to happen the day that dagger pointed at my neck.
We retrieve our assignments and expect to finish by three nights sundown. “Red cloak. Don’t expose the identity. You do, then we terminate both of you.” As said target turned the corner, I positioned behind the column. I leaped ahead, dagger pointed. Yet, as I moved closer, target exposed the leg. The leg sparkled white, covered with crushed pearls. Immediately my need throbbed. Target was a she; not a he. Fuck. I quivered and fell. She grabbed dagger and pointed at my neck.
Suddenly, she whistled. Two figures also in red cloaks grabbed me and pierced my flesh with a needle. I woke up lying on hay in an iron cell. “Madame calls on you.” The cell gate opened and there stood the lady in the red cloak. “Kneel before your Madame.” Everyone stopped moving in this moment of worship. She never said a word and just stared at me as I kneeled. After an hour, she finally said “Minion” and turned away. My legs numb, they carried me into my cell. This repeated several days, then several weeks, stretching to many months.
One day I received the call like any other. “Madame calls on you.” I positioned to my knees when suddenly an arm pulled me up. “No, today you walk.” They led me through a dark corridor until we reached a pool of water. Attendants bathed me. Then I was led to a large gate. It rose to reveal a red gown that stretched from the back of the great hall to the entrance of the gate.
Madame sat in the center wearing this gown that filled the entire room. A red cloak covered her head and face. Madame removed her cloak, looked into my eyes and called gently to me, “寶寶…起来.” Suddenly weakness set into my legs and I fell. “My dear it’s me. Don’t be afraid.” Again, she said softly “寶寶起来.” I crawled towards her like I had always done when we were children in that abandoned castle. Her soft gown pressed on my knees and comforted me as I inched towards her.
Who was this that I had so casually wrestled and kissed long ago? I couldn’t look at her. My face pointed to the ground. “What happened to you?” “I was sold to be one of his many wives. Madame will never be just another man’s wife. Put out your hand.” I felt the crackling of leaves and stems in my hand. Bringing it to my face, I saw dried flowers. They were the very flowers I gave her that day we met and she threw them at me.
“Many men have fought to be my King. Many men serve as my minions. You have always been my Knight. Rise now to be who you have always been.”

Scarlet Queen on Patreon
The Scarlet Queen is an independent, one woman production. From the very text you read on this website, to the videos… I do t
hem all in my free time when I am in-between writing books and consulting. I reply to most emails around the clock, you can call me a crazed architect or artist. What started out as an experimental artistic d/s project, is approaching one million views on YouTube. Since starting the channel two years ago, Google Adwords on Youtube has not paid me a single cent. As of today, I had decide to turn off advertisements on my videos, so you will no longer see them.
I am a hyper creative person, I like dancing, filming and writing at the same time. I can’t do just one thing, I am quite a versatile artist by nature. I like to explore new things all the time. I can’t sit still in my wanderlust to find out more, and more. As of this year, I had decided to turn professional in my career as an artist. My main focus where I spend 50% of my productive time is on novels and short stories, the remaining 30% on filming videos and 20% on engaging with fans/minions.
The monetisation aspect is a challenge for an artist, for novels to hit full scale commercialisation, one has to build up sufficient fan following in order to make it on the best seller list. My first book, the Red Hourglass, which is currently being edited, is going to be offered for free as an ebook on Amazon on 30 October 2015. I will write a new novel sequel annually as part of a six book series, to be launched on the same date.
As for my YouTube Channel, Scarlet Queen, I intend to move my filming location to The Scarlet. It’s a beautiful European decorated hotel where pain and pleasure will certainly meet. I am currently limited to the red sofa at the moment. But I hope to move into a grand scale production soon. I believe with the support of my minions it will definitely be possible for me to write and film on a full time basis. I will no longer have to do any consulting, and just focus on my artistry on a more elaborate scale.
What goes backstage in filming the Scarlet Queen is the creator at her fullest (limited) potential. On a spiritual level, I believe I want to bring my viewers to a place where pain and pleasure are one. On an emotional level, I want my viewers to feel that they are on a personal journey to find themselves through Cheryl and Risque. Only through true acceptance of the good and bad sides of oneself, that can one truly be at their most authentic self.
There is a new movement that fans on YouTube are moving to sponsor their
favourite creators on patreon, so that the creators can continue to improve the quality and production of their work, without being sidetracked to make alternative sources of income. I do want to start rejecting consulting projects as they do take my time, and neither do I want to offer “professional dom” services as I am not that (obviously!). I had looked through patreon and I think that’s the next step to go for my minions to help me produce higher quality content at a faster rate. I might even commit to two videos per week if the first milestone is reached.
I hope you had enjoyed my artistry and will support my work on patreon.
