Unstoppable heros, Uncompromising love, Unforgettable passion.
Science Fiction Romance author Kayelle Allen spent years developing the universe for her books. Her debut novel was so spicy it made seasoned Romance readers blush. Appealing to every gender and sexual orientation, her command of the romantic language evokes passion in all its forms. Her offbeat humor and surprising twists generated the motto, "Think you know what'll happen next? No way! It's by Kayelle..." |

My name is Maura Anderson, author of Sensual, Magical, Unconventional Tales. I write paranormal (and occasionally contemporary) erotic romance, though I'm also a published non-fiction (read tech) author.
My stories are magical, hot and have a touch of sweet that I just can't resist.
With a background in modern witchcraft, Celtic history and mythology and software development, you can never be quite sure what will become a story. Or who might appear in one.
To learn more about me and my books, check out my website which also has a newsletter you can sign up for sign up that includes an ongoing free story and a monthly contest. You can also check out my blog and enjoy my news and Flash Fiction Friday.

Hello to my fellow writers and readers. I am Australian, but now live in
Florida with my alpha-male husband and sweet daughter who are Aussies as
well. Besides dodging hurricanes, I love living in America. My husband was
offered a position in Florida, but we both know, we only moved here for my
writing career.
I am the sub-genre queen. I write historical paranormal erotic romance novels. Say that five times fast. LOL. I like to bring something different to the readers and I have a reputation for spicy scenes, to say the least. Come join me in the forum, but I warn you, the topics will lean toward men, romance, and sex. My three favorite subjects. ;) |

I have been into Health since I was a child, as my mother informs me that I begged for cabbage in the grocery store, not candy!
I now write Healthy Living Tips articles, consult with people about their health, speak to groups of people on health and promote my book Real Solutions to Children’s Health. I love helping people get healthier and I feel now is the time to get our children healthy. So feel free to ask a question, or post a comment.

I started writing when I was about twelve. I'd just read one of Elaine Mitchell's brumby books (not the silver brumby series, one of the others) and I hated the ending. So I did what seemed the most natural thing to do--I rewrote it <g>.
I haven't stopped writing since--though I have to admit, it's only in the last fifteen years that I've seriously thought about getting published. To date, I've completed a total of seventeen novels, (not counting the rewrite of Elaine Mitchell's!) although the first three will probably never see the light of day. I thought they were brilliant at the time, but looking at them now, I can only shudder. I still think the ideas are great, but basically, all three books would need to be entirely rewritten. Maybe I'll get back to them one day, when I have the time and nothing else to write. I'm a member of RWAustralia, the Princess Lulu Regrets crit group (don't ask about the name, because it's just unexplainable <g>), the Sock Monkeys, and the Monkeylint support group.

Hello all! I'm a new author who loves both romance and adventure stories. My writing heroes are people like Tolkien and Patrick O'Brian, whose worlds are fantastic places to be and whose action scenes leave you biting your nails and on the edge of your seats with tension. But I've always felt that what would make their books *even better* would be a romance between a couple of the heroes. And I adore Jane Austen - she's my romance heroine - but I can't help wishing there were a few duels or naval battles in her books.
So mine are an attempt to have both! If you too like a bit of action with your romance, or a bit of romance with your action, then hopefully I can help you to have your cake and eat it :)

Will has always been a storyteller, but only recently started writing them down. The focus on erotic romance was an easy choice for the man who has always considered himself both a throwback to the warrior poet ethic and an extremely sexual being. Will admits to being an incorrigible flirt, but he also can be quite serious at times. He is always seeking feedback, diverse points of view and the adrenalin of a new experience.

Kinky, eccentric, procrastinator extraordinaire, and
connoisseur of gay porn. Yep, that's all me and a bag
of chips. I write gay fiction for such publishers as
Torquere Press, Phaze, and Samhain Publishing
(sometimes solo, sometimes with Shayne Carmichael). I
have a weakness for Cokes (hey, to a Southern boy,
everything's Coke) and an even bigger weakness for
musclemen. You'll find musclemen, leathermen, cowboys,
country boys, vampires, angels, and God knows what
else, in here, so have fun!

I've been writing many, many years, but didn't get published until 2003. I love books that ground you in a familiar world, but still offer elements of the paranormal (vampires, wizards, shape-shifters cursed dukes, etc.). My heroes all tend to be Alpha males who strongly believe they need to protect the women who enter their lives. Though they may admire the heroine's courage and even understand her need to be strong and independent, they always think they know what is best for her. More often than not, they are wrong, and it is up to the heroine to help them recognize their mistake and slowly change their attitudes. In the end, the hero will usually be willing to compromise, to an extent, and may even admit he is overly protective, but he can never really change his attitude since his need to protect is so deeply engrained in him. The heroine comes to understand her hero's faults, and even grows to love him more for having them. She learns the best way to get around her domineering partner is simply to love him and offer her love back freely in return.

Adrianne Brennan is a romantic dark fantasy, paranormal, and science fiction author who stumbled into her love of writing by accident at the tender age of ten when she was given a creative writing assignment for her science class. The end result was her writing a brief science fiction comedy featuring numerous puns regarding vegetables. Once the writing bug bit, it bit pretty hard, and from the age of fourteen onwards she worked on a lengthy fantasy novel. At this time, this fantasy novel is still a work in progress as she continues to focus on her other works. An avid reader, Adrianne has been most influenced by various science fiction and fantasy authors including Madeleine L'Engle, Roger Zelazny, Laurell K. Hamilton, LA Banks, Yasmine Galenorn, Michael Ende, Neil Gaiman, and Alan Moore. Like her main character from Blood of the Dark Moon, she professes a love for Iamblichus and Greek philosophy.

Hola, I'm James Buchanan, a multipublished author of, primarily, homoerotic romance & fiction. My Novella, Twice the Cowboy is the 2006 Preditors & Editors #1 Romance Short Story, the 2006 Golden Rose Winner for best Novella and has garnered several other awards. I write everything from fantasy to contemporary to suspense.
Life wise, I grew up in a small Texas town, hours away from any other small Texas town and about as far west as you could go and still be considered in Texas. A stint at the University, where I ostensibly majored in English, garnered me a degree useful for being someone's secretary. The absolute lack of employment opportunities sent me to Southern California. After a stint in County Mental Health (administration not client) I ran screaming into the field of Law. So far I have been practicing for nine years and someday I might even get it right.
You can find my work primarily at www.torquerepress.com and www.phaze.com. I look forward to chatting with ya'll.

I began writing fiction seriously in 2003 and have written four novels (and started three others) since then. My first two science fiction novels (The Mars Imperative and The Tesserene Imperative) debuted in 2007. The third (Sunrise Destiny) has been sold and should appear in late 2008 or early 2009. The fourth (My Other Car is a Spaceship) is currently making the publishing rounds. I also write nonfiction and had a book on computer technology published in 1995, and I ghost-wrote three chapters of another nonfiction book about computers in 2005. I also write a regular column on writing and language for Mike's Writing Newsletter, as well as a blog on the subject. I love talking about science fiction/fantasy, computers, writing in general, and—of course—my novels. Please join me. |
