What genre do you write in, and why? :
Primarily paranormal, historical and M/M I’ve also done short contemporary. Why? Those are the subjects that most interest me. I’ve been a fan of thing historic and paranormal for as long as I can remember
How much time do you spend writing every week? :
Not nearly as much as I should considering how slow my solo writing goes.
What was the first story you ever wrote about? (not nec. first published story) :
It was a fanfiction--my continuation of the Louis & Lestat relationship after reading Interview With the Vampire.
How do you judge the effectiveness of the sensual scenes in your stories? :
I hand it off to friends and see if they rate it “Hawt!”.
Do you ever try out the sexual positions you write to make sure of accuracy? :
AT this point in time all I have is my imagination, but if anyone knows a gorgeous intelligent man who’d like to volunteer as a research partner…*grin*
Ever been told, Um...sweetie, that's not how it works? :
Not that I recall.
What one word best describes your toy collection? :
How about Nonexistant.
Favourite candy while writing? :
I actually like sweetened dry cereal with no milk instead of a candy snack.
Where did your most unusual plot idea come from? :
I’d say watching Japanese rockstars.
What inspires you to write? :
The random ideas and character voices that pop into my head when I least expect it.
What music inspires your writing? :
Rock mostly. Lately Japanese rock and some US tunes.
Plotter or a Panster? :
Pantser definitely. I need to find out “what happens next” along with the characters.
Does your cat insist on sitting on your keyboard like mine does? :
We’ve got 5 and they like my lap or climbing up near my neck.

I’m still waiting for that one.
Most challenging place you've ever written a spicy scene? :
Don’t have any since I always write at home.
When you get stuck, how do you find your way back to the writing? :
Mostly by whining to myself and a few tolerant friends that “I’m stuck again!”.

I have led a dull dull life and have none.
Where's the most unusual place you ever managed to have sex? :
See above. Dull. Way dull life.

I’m still waiting for that one to happen.

Non fiction mostly though I do love paranormal YA and crime stories.
Is your real life anything like your stories? What about your fantasies? :
My real life is like a deathly dull.
If you were to make a bumper sticker for your car that had to relate to erotic romance, what would it say? :
Everything goes better with Yaoi.
Soulmates? Do you believe? :
When I see it firsthand I’ll believe it.
Sex with anyone famous? :
Only in my dreams.
