(Kam) Howdy. Thank you so much for having me
here today. Let’s see, what can I say about myself? Hmm…. Well, I am a mother
of two kids: a thirteen-year-old son and a four-year-old daughter who thinks
she is a teenager already. Dirk and I just celebrated our 15th
anniversary in June and more in love than ever.
JLD: In which genres do you write?
(Kam) We write erotic romance: gay, straight,
bi, ménage, and lesbian.
JLD: What inspires you to write?
(Kam) I enjoy sharing a bit of my life with
others. When you read a story by us, know that certain areas are completely
true – a scene or the entire story. This tidbit makes the stories even hotter.
JLD: How do you choose names for your characters?
(Kam) The best way I can describe it is a mental
neon sign turns on and the name flashes until I type his or her name into the
WIP.
JLD: What is your favorite type of character to
write? Do you have a personal favorite amongst your own characters?
(Kam) We try to add a bit of humor to all our
stories so anyone who is sexy and humorous is my favorite. As for who is my
favorite character now, it really is a toss up between Elizabeth and Donovan. I
love her punk look and spunky attitude. I adore Donovan’s flirtatious nature
and his sweet side.
JLD: Do you have any advice for aspiring authors?
(Kam) If you have a passion to write, then
write….write…write. However don’t be discouraged when a mental block happens.
Walk away, read a book, go bake, watch tv…..What I am saying is get your mind
off the story and you’ll be amazed how the block will suddenly melt away.
JLD: Who is/are your favorite author(s)?
(Kam) I get asked this question often. It’s hard
to limit my response to ten but I will try. Let’s see, off the top of my head,
I read Kresley Cole, Shayla Black, James Patterson, Jaci Burton, Keri Arthur,
Pamela Palmer, Karen Moning, Maggie Shayne, Lora Leigh, and Gena Showalter.
JLD: How do/does your favorite authors(s) impact your
writing?
(Kam) When I read a great story, it makes me
want to strive to reach their writing caliber.
JLD: If you were stranded on an island with one
character from any book of your choice, who would it be and why?
(Kam) That’s a hard question because I need
someone who can do it all. I want someone who can make a 5-course meal from
what the island provides yet can build us an escape boat.
JLD: Hollywood called! They want to turn your novel
into a movie or television series. If given the choice, who would you cast as
your characters?
(Kam) Joe
Manganiello would most definitely be Donovan and I would take up acting lessons
just to play his Elizabeth. ;)
Blurb: It’s grand opening day of Guilty Pleasures, and Donovan is there
bright and early with his best friend Jackson. He came to show support to
Jackson’s girl, Felicia and maybe grab a sugary treat. Little did he know he’d
find something sweeter than anything offered on the menu board – the woman of
his dreams.
Excerpt:
This is it,
Elizabeth thought as she pushed through the door to deliver a large batch of
chocolate and vanilla sugar cookies to the display case. It was grand opening
day for Guilty Pleasures, and she couldn’t be more excited or more nervous.
Years of scrimping and saving had accumulated to this day. In a matter of
minutes the bakery would be open for business, and their city would officially
have their first taboo sweet shop.
Elizabeth
took one final look around, making sure everything was perfect, when Felicia,
her business partner and friend, appeared next to her, chomping on a
fornication cookie.
Out of
all the sugary creations crafted for the shop, Elizabeth and Felicia would
agree these were the most fun to develop. They spent many wine-filled nights
brainstorming and researching ideas for the inserts.
“What’s
it say, babe?” Elizabeth asked, nodding toward the paper in Felicia’s hand.
Felicia
laughed and read the naughty message, "Two heads are better than one, but
three, now that’s what I call a party!"
As she tucked the paper into her back pocket, she asked, “I forget. Was this
yours or mine?”
“I
actually think your man deserves credit for this one.” Grinning, Elizabeth
grabbed the sampler plate off the counter and walked toward the front door,
turning to take one final look around before the place filled up. She couldn't
be any prouder of the decor in her little slice of heaven. She glanced to her
left and smiled proudly as she admired the photos on the wall.
The
food photographer they had hired did a fantastic job capturing the beauty and
sexiness of several corset cakes available for purchase. But the icing on the
cake, so to speak, was the mural to the right of the entrance. A local artist
painted "What Are Your Guilty Pleasures" but the letters were
actually naked people in compromising naughty positions.
Felicia
giggled. “Oh yeah, it’s all coming back to me now. We definitely drank way too
much that night.”
Nodding
in agreement, Elizabeth turned on the neon sign and opened the doors for
business.
Already,
a few eager customers were waiting by the window. They actually applauded when
Elizabeth stepped out of the shop door. She greeted them with a smile and
offered them their choice of iced cocks or boobs. She wasn’t surprised the
guests blushed when they made their selection and bit into the cookie. She
expected to witness many rosy cheeks in the hours ahead of them—giggles too.
As the
streets began to fill up with people going to work, Elizabeth tried to coax
even more passersby into the shop with her funny shout-outs such as: “I bet our
peckers taste as good as your man’s. No wait, even better!” And, “Our breasts
are fantastic and all natural.” All
the while she held up a naughty treat.
After
the bell dinged behind her a couple dozen times, she realized the humorous
approach to draw in customers was working like a charm. Now with them inside,
she had no doubt every person who’d entered the shop erected from her dreams
would be a repeat customer. And with this thought, she knew the many dinners of
Ramen noodles were well worth the discomfort it cost her over the years.
JLD: Your story sounds fantastic! Are there any other projects you’re working on?
(Kam) Dirk and I are taking the summer off to
spend time with our kids and finish up summer home renovations.
JLD: Where can our readers find you?
