OK…I have to admit it. I’m the “normal” one in the Novelty Girl’s bunch. (Close your mouth Crystal, a fly is going to end up in there if you don’t.) What I mean is, I write nice, sweet, okay yeah, it’s erotic romance, but I mean one boy, one girl sweet, erotic romance. I don’t do paranormal (vampires, dragons, shifters, demons, fairies, etc.) like the other ladies. BUT, Thursday, I started writing a menage. Gasp! Shock!
But I think it’s time to stretch my wings a little as a writer - trying something I’ve never done before. And, I must admit, it was fu-hun! I did the blurb first, just to make sure it sounded right and logical and then I wrote a little over a 1000 words on it that night - stayed up late too and was dog tired Friday when I got up, but it was fun getting into those characters minds. Next, I think I’ll try futuristic/sci-fi. I have this story brewing in the back of my mind for it as well. Less than one week until my book(s) release. It’s been sooo long. I’m excited. Have a great weekend!

Counting the days with you until your new release.
A menage. . . oh, shiver! How exciting to stretch your wings!

Oh awesome Lyric!!!! I know that I’ve stepped into areas that I’d never thought about doing.
Erotic romance was a stretch for me I thought. But I loved writing it so much I got myself a pen name.
Fantasy wasn’t my cup of tea, I thought, until I wrote one and LOVED it.
Science Fiction? Nah! I can’t do that, right? Wrong.
I’ve decided that if the story is there, it doesn’t matter what “genre” it is. It’s the story that matters.
Way to stretch those writer wings.

Ha! Normal one, my ass.

Good for you! I’m like that, a one girl, one guy romance writer. But Ive always wanted to take it somwhere else. Need to get up the courage first.

I’m 2 1/2 chapters in and loving it. Wish me luck.
