So far, I have published four books in the "Seducing" series - "Seducing the Masseur", "Seducing the Art Student", "Seducing the Neighbor" and "Seducing the Gardener". I could continue in this series, and I probably will at some point, but now I wish to turn my attention to a new arena - cheerleaders! I have decided to try my hand at cheerleader erotica. Cheerleaders are young, beautiful, sexy women, as well as great university students in general. Americans tend to view their college years as "the best days of their lives", so there's a lot of scope for sexy short stories, as well as a large customer base (hopefully). I hesitated as to whether I should do a bunch of standalone titles, or have recurring characters. I've decided to do recurring characters and, while there is an order to the series, I don't want it to matter too much if customers buy them out of sequence. Each story is a complete tale, and as the cha...

All right, this is it, then - my last "call to action", as erstwhile marketers would call it. This post is to inform you, busy reader that you are, that my modest title, "Seducing the Gardener", with its hunky gardener, Eddie Dalton, and thirsty heroine, Daphne Everson, is now on sale on Amazon. Is there anything more to say? Well, you can download the Kindle or order the paperback. The Kindle is $2.99 and the paperback is $3.99 - a bargain, if I do say so myself. I guess I've said all that I can say about this latest opus, so go ahead and buy it, if you're so inclined, right here . I'll be back soon with another great title!

So I hope by now that you have purchased this book and, if so, you have my heartfelt thanks. Having done so, I hope you will enjoy it to your heart's (or pussy's) content. That done, I wonder if I might humbly beg you for comments, and suggestions for improvement? That would go a long way towards enhancing the body of work I have thus far produced, so that I can advance further along in my career, get better as a writer, and, as a benefit to you, give you more of what you want (and less of what you don't). I feel that a healthy dialogue between writer and reader is a good and healthy thing, so I encourage you to fire away and tell me what you think of the story. Is it the plot? Do you like Daphne Everson? Is Eddie Dalton gorgeous enough for you? Is Raymond Carter suitably dastardly as the villain of the piece? What was the sex scene like - too long, too short, about right? Anyway, whatever you have, or any concerns you might like to share - I would love to hear them. Lookin...

So hopefully by now you are at least a little intrigued at the prospect of owning this little marvel of a story, if not for its reputation as a piece of classic literature (it ain't), then at least for the pleasure you could get out of it, in more ways than one. What do I get out of it? Well, I get satisfaction for a job well done. I also get to feel like the effort was worth it. I also receive some money, which is awfully nice of you. Thanks in advance for that! However, it is the encouragement to keep writing that is perhaps the most important thing in the longer term. It would be great to keep pumping out these books, but only if you like them. What if there are a bunch of women out there you can't stand them, and who think, "please, make it stop!" Well, I hope not. What I do hope for is that you'll have fun with this tale, and that gives me the greatest return on investment for my work. Happy reading!

So what do you get out of buying my latest bonkbuster erotica short story? Well, hopefully, the best gardener sex you've read since "Lady Chatterley's Lover", free of the tedious class-consciousness, with a female lead who's more values-driven and believes in herself, and a gardener who's a better person and more honourable man than Mellors ever could have been. D.H. Lawrence has a lot to answer for with that book, and none of it good, in my view. While I can't guarantee the kind of literary quality one might expect from a piece of classic literature like that, I can at least reassure you that my book will be more fun, take less time to read, and contain a hot sex scene where Eddie Dalton, my male lead, gets to show off his strength in front of Daphne, the female lead. What else? Well, I can do it all at a cheaper price and in less words also. If that doesn't sound like a deal, I don't know what does. So go for it - and I hope you have a great time...

 "Cliff Notes" means a summary, so let's do it! Daphne Everson works in downtown Summerville, South Carolina, USA. With a new house in the suburbs, some women she calls friends and a boyfriend to go with them, she's pleased with her life so far and the achievements she has made. However, things take a turn for the worst when she becomes restless under her controlling boyfriend, and wants out. They have a row and split up, but not before he threatens her with violence. On a day and time of his choosing, her boyfriend shows up on her doorstep and tries to push his way into her house. After a brief verbal altercation, things begin to look a bit serious for Daphne. Just then, Raymond, her boyfriend, is interrupted by Eddie Dalton, the gardener Daphne hired months earlier, who is out in the garden. Eddie calls Raymond away from the door, who is rude and abusive towards Eddie. One thing leads to another and they end up in fisticuffs with one another. The police are called a...

I have been asked previously as to why a young woman of my age (20) would write MILF erotica. MILF, which is short for "Mother I'd Like to _____") is a type of erotica with an older female and younger male. If I'm so young, why don't I write about hot couples in their early twenties? Well, I could do; and maybe I will in the future. I'm thinking about it. I've already decided to maybe do some stories about cheerleaders, coeds, plus some lactation (which is a bit more kinky), as you might have read in the bio that goes with this blog. Nevertheless, MILF erotica is fun and exciting to read. One of the issues of two very young lovers, maybe only 19 or 20, is the lack of sexual experience. I find it boring to have to set up "first kiss" scenarios, delicate and tender virginal deflowerings, innocent sexual awakenings, and all that jazz. For a short story format, I need to get to the sex fast, so this issue drags out the word count to at least novella ...

The "hot gardener" has been a trope in erotic fiction for a long time, ever since D.H. Lawrence wrote "Lady Chatterley's Lover" in 1928. With my new MILF erotica short story, I would like to add to this trope. Nevertheless, as I have mentioned in the last two posts, I don't like Lady Chatterley as a character, and I dislike Mellors, her gardener, even more. She is a bored, listless, valueless human being with nothing better to do than just lounge around her huge house, while Mellors is this brooding, hulking, monosyllabic, brutish figure who's not exactly schooled in the finer points of female anatomy. Even so, I have to accept that Mellors is the prototype. That doesn't mean I have to like the guy, though. I wish that Lawrence had created a better character for this trope - someone with an education, who could string two words together, and even manage a sentence if he tried really hard. 1928, huh? That says it all. The 1920's was a decade of de...

So in my last post, I talked about the most famous example of a "hot gardener" story - "Lady Chatterley's Lover", by D.H. Lawrence - and I how unenthused I am about Lady Chatterley as a character, and especially about Mellors, the gardener. In Daphne Everson, my lead female, I have decided to rectify Lady Chatterley's listless, tedious, valueless existence. I wanted a woman with a modicum of can-do verve and a bit of self-respect. Nevertheless, I give her a background story, where her family home is not too far away, in central Summerville, South Carolina, USA. Yet she has done reasonably OK with her life so far - she's in her thirties, has moved to the suburbs to start a new life, has a humdrum but steady job in the local area, and is doing well for herself as a single woman, with a few friends she can have coffees with, plus a boyfriend that she met through work, who is quite a dynamic person. So far, so good - yet, when she breaks up with her boyfrien...

In my last post, I discussed the issues I had writing my novel-length work, "Seducing the Neighbor", and how I hoped that this new story would be the antidote. Well, here it is - hooray! It's "Seducing the Gardener", a much simpler story, that I hope you will love, that will keep the word count down to a short story-sized level. This one is set in sleepy Summerville, South Carolina, USA - a Deep South setting but contemporary, full of white picket fences and "respectable" neighbours, lawns and porches - basically, small-town America. I felt that a story about a thirty-something singleton in a boring job in a small town who seduces her hired gardener after a bad break-up gave me a simple premise, yet with quite a bit of erotic charge. This is not the first time this has been done. Perhaps the most famous example of the "hunky gardener" trope is in "Lady Chatterley's Lover", by D.H. Lawrence. Ever since it was published in 1928, M...

So here we are - tada! Introducing my latest title in the "Seducing" series - "Seducing the Gardener"! This title is the fourth in the series, following on from two short stories, "Seducing the Masseur" and "Seducing the Art Student", plus a novel, "Seducing the Neighbor". We're back to short story territory, ladies (and gents, and others). After the four months that it took to create "Neighbor", I was in a hurry to pump out some new titles quickly, so decided to simplify the story. Indeed, while I was proud of "Seducing the Neighbor", and even submitted it for publication to a real press, and not going through the self-publishing route immediately like I had done before, writing it had been a bit of a creative slog. I think I had been a little over-ambitious in its execution, plus I had initially wanted it to be a short story, anyway. However, it had unexpectedly burgeoned and ballooned into this huge 49,000-wor...

So now I think I've said all that I want to say on this, my first erotica novel. I really hope you can find the time to purchase it, as all monies will be gratefully received, and justify my further endeavours. When I consider that this was four months in the making, it would be great to have the satisfaction of knowing that I gave you pleasure, plus I hope you can get hours of enjoyment out of it, and that you will keep a opy on your bookshelf, or else a Kindle on your phone or other device, to dip into whenever you feel the urge (whatever that urge may be). With that said, I look forward to writing more in the future! Purchase "Seducing the Neighbor" on Amazon here .

 So what is your opinion on this humungous epic? It's a bit more grand in scope than my usual 10,000-12,000-word short stories, and as such, there is more exposition, greater detail, more character development than normal, plus one particular sex scene that is huge and describes a spectacular foursome. It was really fun to write that scene, and I hope you enjoy it, too. I would really like to hear your opinion, since to roll on regardless, churning out story after story, sex scene after sex scene, with little or no feedback, feels a little like shouting into the ether. If a tree falls in the forest and nobody heard it, did it even happen? Of course it did - I'm no Cartesian. Yet, nevertheless, for the sake of keeping up my spirits, and also for advice on improvements, it would be great to hear from you. Indeed, it is for the sake of improvement that feedback is the most useful for me to hear. I would like to get better at this, plus it would be great to really hone in on what y...
