Cassie is still wondering why you've not taken the time to read the first chapter of Salt Spray and Sweet Trouble on Erotxt.me and thus giving you the chance to second guess all her bad decisions. erotxt.me/authors/619f...

Can you do the dishes without listening to a podcast? Well I'm definitely not brave enough to find out.

Someone once told me January is a horrible time to think you can change. The weather sucks here in the Midwest, barely any sunlight some days. I'm feeling it right now. But that doesn't mean the wanting is worthless. The gray sky doesn't defeat the resolve. Maybe it just makes it more honest.

New free Patreon post is up! Reviews of stories I've been reading lately: WWI romance with killer atmosphere, consensual hotwife dynamics, and slow-burn exhibitionism. Plus updates on my own work. What are YOU reading? www.patreon.com/posts/10-jan... #erotica #writing #patreon #readingrecs

Salt Spray and Sweet Trouble, Chapter 1, is here! Cassie never meant to stow away on Jack's boat. She was just running from her past. Free to read on Erotxt.me #SpicyReads #StowawayRomance #NewChapter #AmWriting #ContemporaryRomance #AgeGap erotxt.me/authors/619f...

A quiet morning. A sunlit garden. Chapter 3 of Summer with Jessica is now live on Patreon. Slow burn tension, intimacy, and the weight of knowing nothing lasts forever. www.patreon.com/posts/summer... #AmWriting #EroticFiction #SlowBurn #AgeGapRomance #PatreonWriter #IndieAuthor #ChapterRelease

Living on the internet is a bad idea. Digital spaces can feel like community, but they can't replace the weight of physical presence, the warmth of sitting across from someone who knows you beyond your username. I hope you have a real world place with people who care about you.

Happy 2026! Let's not pretend we're going to magically become better people overnight. Real change takes time and the willingness to stumble along the way. Maybe most importantly: try to connect with the people around you. As an introvert, this is mostly a speech to myself.

I now have three stories posted to Erotxt.me that you can go read for free. Today's story is "The Lovers We Never Were" - James and Olivia have one final night in Paris to decide: keep pretending the attraction isn't there, or give in. #eroticfiction #NSFW #infidelity erotxt.me/authors/619f...

Good writing session today. I hope to wrap up this story today and then spend tomorrow editing it again before I deliver it to my patron who commissioned it for their approval. This was a low input request which gives me more freedom but I don't have a real preference either way on commissions.

I've been fighting a cold which has a) not been welcome this time of year b) sapped all of my energy to do much beyond continue to exist c) left me unable to write or enjoy the holiday season to its fullest. Good news I'm definitely on the mend and hope to make the most of the next week.

Another story of mine has published on Erotxt.me Off Script: A soul-crushing job. A chance encounter. One Danish bartender who makes him forget why he came to New York, and remember why he stayed. erotxt.me/authors/619f... #EroticFiction #IndieAuthor #NSFW #Romance

Today's free post over on Patreon is a character profile of Taelim from the Heart Mage series. On weeks I can't post a complete chapter I've started to show some of the background ideas I have for some of my main characters. www.patreon.com/posts/taelim...

Weekly writing update and release schedule. Also Taking Gwen has been well received on Kindle Unlimited. www.patreon.com/posts/12-nov...

In editing and drafting today I came to the obvious conclusion that a huge 160k+ word fantasy story with a dozen plus main characters and multiple locations is harder to write and edit than a story with two characters over maybe 50k words. Boy am I slow sometimes.

Awake a little bit early today. Excited to get some editing done on Heart Mage Chapter 7 and maybe start drafting Chapter 2 of Summer with Jessica. Maybe I'll even get some reading in too. #WritingCommmunity #AmWriting

Writing can feel like shouting into the void sometimes. I'm grateful for every reader, patron, and follower. I enjoy knowing what I'm creating matters to someone. A comment, a review with actual words, even a DM about what worked or didn't in a story means more than you'd think. Thank you.

Lisa and Aaron from My Best Friend's OF Sister turned into one of those unexpected reader favorites. When I ran a Patreon poll, they voted overwhelmingly for a sequel. Now both stories are compiled together in the Amazon ebook release. #Romance #AgeGap a.co/d/3juQ7qf

Just wrapped up two chapters from two different stories this weekend! My Patreon members voted for Jessica to be recently divorced, so I finished that first chapter today. Feeling productive! #Romance #AgeGap

Completed a new chapter of Heart Mage yesterday. Working on the first part of the age gap romance Summer with Jessica today. Writing has been going well.

Taking Gwen, my first commissioned story is available to read for all paid members (even the $1 level) and for preview by anyone. www.patreon.com/Rteny #Hotwife #Erotica #DarkDesire #EroticFiction

Me editing: Page 1: "This dialogue feels wooden. Consider adding subtext about Sera's reluctance to trust again after the betrayal. Also, 'walked' appears 3x in this paragraph - vary your verbs. The lighting metaphor doesn't quite land." Page 47: "sure whatever" #writingcommunity #amwriting

An excerpt… “That’ll be extra,” he says with a twinkle in his eye. “What?” she asks innocently, pushing her glasses against her nose. He comes around to the front of the counter with his fist around the canister. He shakes it vigorously. “You want it, don’t you?” Get it: books2read.com/u/mlRwvZ

Cassie is running from a shattered dream and a past she won't talk about. She stowed away on Jack's boat with nothing but chaos and a smile. Terrible at sailing. Excellent at everything else. a.co/d/6A3yng0 #SpicyRomance #AgeGapRomance #RomanceErotica #AgeGap

Jack's a former surgeon turned sailing hermit. Lean, weathered, and dedicated to his organized solitude. Then Cassie stowed away. Now his careful control is unraveling faster than she can untie his knots. a.co/d/6A3yng0 #SailingRomance #SpicyRomance #AgeGapRomance #RomanceErotica #AgeGap

Just posted my progress report on Heart Mage and an upcoming story Summer with Jessica. Covering Chapter 5's emotional beats, what's coming in Chapter 6 (November 1st), and how Jessica's story is shaping up (November 8th). #amwriting #writingcommunity www.patreon.com/posts/22-oct...

When I wrote Casey, I wanted her to be the kind of woman who doesn’t have to raise her voice to own a room. She’s tall, sharp, and the definition of control. Every move calculated, every word deliberate. She cares more deeply than she ever lets on.

For Bump, Set, Spike, Sex, I wrote Sam to be the kind of woman who walks into a room and instantly shifts the energy. She’s bold, sharp-tongued, and unapologetically confident. She's the team’s emotional spark plug and secret weapon.

When I wrote Jake, I wanted him to feel real. Jake isn’t confident because he’s perfect. He becomes confident because he’s willing to try, to listen, to show up. That’s what makes him interesting to me, not his height or his potential, but his heart.

When I wrote Mia, I wanted her to be the glue that holds everything together. She’s strong, confident, and loyal to a fault. A woman who’ll tease you and fight for you. 🏐 Bump, Set, Spike, Sex — a summer story that’s hot, heartfelt, and a bit wild. a.co/d/3xhrgKD

And finally Matt. When I wrote Off Script, Matt was never meant to be a hero. He’s flawed, searching, a man caught between wanting more and not knowing what that “more” really is. His choices say as much about desire as they do about fear.

When I wrote Off Script, I built Ashley as a femme fatale to contrast Emma’s warmth and sincerity. She’s temptation wrapped in confidence, a mirror to Matt’s desires and his flaws. Attraction is easy. Connection takes more.
