Getting My Hands Dirty
I drive myself crazy writing sometimes. I'm tunnel-visioned, and I don't always know when to call a halt. I've kept my head down for the first three months of this year. I've written hard, and long, and lots — plus the PR. But there comes a time when a girl just has to get her more »

Shay Briscoe: Artist in Transition
I'm very excited to welcome the talented Shay Briscoe to my site today. Shay is one of the three lovely artists who gave me a very special gift for the launch of my latest novel, Body Temperature and Rising. Shay, along with Fuschia Ayling (who was my guest recently) and Jess Pritchard (who will hopefully more »

Psst! Have You Read That Filthy Book, by Lily Harlem and Natalie Dae?
Lily Harlem and Natalie Dae have a sizzling new release out called That Filthy Book. And if the excerpt they've shared below is any indication, I'd say the book is very aptly named! Blurb: Out of sight, out of mind. Or so I thought, but it turns out an old, dog-eared book with contents so more »

Fifty Shades of Baggage
As a writer, I can't read a book without analysing why it worked for me or why it didn't. A lot of times I'm lucky to get through the first chapter before I'm too bored to go on. While it's quite likely that I have a short attention span, it's more likely that I'm jaded more »

The Story Behind Kay Jaybee's Sexy Novella, Not Her Type
When www.OystersandChocolate.com asked me to write a novella for their brand new e-print company, the OCPress, I was beyond delighted. I had no hesitation in agreeing, and there was never any question of what my subject matter would be. Back in 2007 I wrote a serial for Oysters and Chocolate entitled, Going Against Type, about more »

Spring Forward! Fun, Filth, and Fiction!
Every once in a while I get out of my cave for a little fun and entertainment, and Wednesday last was one of those times. The delectable Rubyyy Jones was able to secure tickets for the Erotic Meet folks to see a performance of the critically acclaimed show, Burlexe. I love burlesque! I love the more »

Artist Fuschia Ayling talks Sexuality and Creativity
I'm sure you've already seen the pictures of the paintings and heard me rave about the fabulous artists who each volunteered to illustrate a different excerpt of my novel, Body Temperature and Rising, for my launch party a couple of weeks ago. As I've gotten to know these very talented young artists and seen a more »

A Very Long Walk for a Very Good Cause
When Raymond was in the States in January, he sent me a link from the Monroe Louisiana paper about a couple who were walking across the US for charity. Being a walker, I was outrageously impressed, and knowing the lack of public footpaths and right aways for walkers, I knew that Nick and Lucy Russell more »

Filthy Mouths and Evil Tongues to Heat Up Hoxton
One of the unexpected surprises that has come from getting my work published and then doing everything I can to promote and make sure it gets as much attention as possible is public readings of excerpts of my work. What started out as a very timid attempt during my first reading when Violet Blue visited more »

Lucy Felthouse Caught in the Act
Kojo Black from Sweetmeats Press asking me to write a story for an anthology seems like such a long time ago now. Flattered that he'd asked me, and even more so when I found out who my fellow bookmates were going to be, I then started to panic. The theme was voyeurism – so broad, more »
