Stoic Characters
Stoic characters have always fascinated me. I’m a chronic oversharer and an all-around incredibly open person. My heart is on my sleeve, and I don’t hide my emotions very well. So these characters that can avoid the lure of truthfulness are really interesting to me....
Scifi Must Breed!
I really love Scifi fiction, especially when it’s paired with the popular ‘must breed!’ trope. I think it ties in with my desire to see this hang-up about sex and sexuality get abolished. I’m tired of monogamy being touted as the only way, despite being in a...
Lovecraftian Endings
As you should likely know by now, Joshua and myself are big fans of H.P. Lovecraft. His mastery of horror and suspense is astounding, especially as it has held up so well against the test of time. But what I like most about his books are his endings. I talked before...
Polygamy in Erotica and Erotic Romance

Death, Mourning, and Loss of Friends
Death doesn’t wait for everything to be perfect. There was this silly saying that I used to mindlessly repeat, that no one dies with an empty inbox. I thought I got it – that there will always be things to do. But that’s not really what it means it all. It means that...

Reviewing Systems
I admit, I’m the person who reads the reviews. I select ‘4 stars or greater’ on Amazon. And I think it’s a terrible habit I need to break. Why? Because it’s paralyzing. Because it leads to excuses not to buy something I probably would have liked. Because there is...

Happily Ever Afters
Some people want romances to always have a happily ever after. I can get that, get behind it even, but that’s not what I want. I want the characters to be real, and I want them to have problems they don’t always overcome. I want them to love each other, even though...

What is Paranormal Romance?
It’s kind of strange to call The Warlord’s Concubine a Paranormal Romance. When I hear paranormal, I’m still thinking of ghosts and the occult. Of modern day Satanists and wiccans. Yet calling it a fantasy romance makes me think of, like, a vacation cruise where you...
