I'm a creative type, I love making things with my hands or my brain so writing falls right into my preferences. My vivid imagination can lead to lots of interesting things occurring both in real life and my stories.
I'm 29, have been for several years now, and will continue to be so for a long time yet. I think I'll probably stay 29 until I can start collecting senior discounts. At least that's what I tell people when they ask.
My writing is primarily erotica but most of it tends towards strong romantic streaks and happy endings. I've done a few shorts but the more I write the more I become unsatisfied with the shorter stories. I like to develop characters and have a plot (or more than one) and story line in my writings. I find that shorts make those goals much more difficult to achieve.
I've little regard for 'sensibilities' and write what I want, regardless of whose sensibilities it may offend. I do try to warn people about the more questionable items in my stories, so be sure to read the full story description.
It was too clinical. I didn't connect. The characters were just 2 dimensional. I did finish it. But not sure if I will visit this author again. Just glad it was a free book.
