Good morning! It's a little after 11 a.m. and I've got a horror movie going while I take a break and catch up on my blogs. I've gotten behind thanks to real life being what it is, you know real and ever hiccuping. :-)
I've been up since 4 a.m. and realized that I hadn't posted any notices about Lost Petals being up and available through Amazon. It's a collection of short stories that visit the emotions of love, lust & loss. I think those are areas we all have in common, some flavor or variation of them flow through each of our lives, regardless of where we live or who we are.
I think that I have always been fascinated by peoples' lives and how these elements affect them. Regardless of class, culture, religion or politics, these three events touch us all, in one way or another. You cannot escape love, lust or loss.
There are so many different kinds of love that any one of us could write an entire book on the subject. Lust is different, as it makes many people uneasy as they face a darker or more primal part of themselves, often missing out on there being more than one kind of lust. You can have a lust for life, a lust for food, a lust for wine, not all lusts are based on sexual desires. Loss, however, is the one that seems to visit us too often, be it loss of a relationship, loss of a friend or family member, the loss of a pet, or the loss of our ideal job, home or career.
As I often write romance or erotica. I do not write the kind of torture erotic tales that seem prevalent these days. I just can't see melding torture or pain with something erotic. It offends my senses. However, I have blended genres of horror and romance, or erotica, but I firmly believe in a time and a place for all things.
While some of my erotica or romances might be on the darker side, I leave the pain and torture to my villains. I don't believe the good guys should be dishing out the torture, etc.,
Anyway, I hope my latest offering finds its niche in the heart of readers. Once again, as a writer (and storyteller) I am presenting my baby to the public and hoping she is not found ugly! lol
Below are some links to help you find Lost Petals or read a free excerpt from the book. I've added my author's page link as well.
Happy reading & writing!
Until next time, take care and be happy. @>---
