So My first single title for Berkley was released at the start of July. BOUND was a big deal for me. I mean, I started out writing 1,500 word short stories that grew to 3,000 words, then novellas, and finally, my first single title.

Strangely enough, BOUND came about becasue the characters from a short story were stuck in my head. Soon, in February, will come my novellaWATCH ME My story in KINK. When I wrote this, it was completely independednt from BOUND. But a secondary character from that book stuck with me, and soon became the main character in my second single title novel, TROUBLE. And surprise surprise, a secondary character from BOUND is also in TROUBLE, and WICKED, my third single title, which I willbe writing in December, is finally going to be HIS story.

Yet, the though of writing a series terrifies me, so how did this happen? Do you call it a series when all the stories end up being connected, even if it wasn’t planned that way?

Anyway, I was just pndering this as the time is and thought I’d share.

And since I’m sharing, check out this review for BOUND:

“Reading the blurb to this story I expected a more traditional BDSM romance, but it didn’t play out quite like this. Bound is an absolute fantastic book, and - at least in my experience – with a unique twist in the D/s department. There’s no talk about a master/slave relationship, extensive training and safe words. No use of a great assortment of toys, gear or devices, no joining the local sex club and collective exhibitionism. To me it was exactly this lack of conventional ingredients that made Bound so wonderfully enjoyable, because it reflected a more realistic picture on this lifestyle than many a “club hopping stories” I read before. Katie feels a dark side inside her that previous lovers couldn’t coax out and arouse, but with Joe she wants to play kinky, do dirty things and let her inner slut out. She is a formidable woman and takes what she craves without questioning society’s standards or having inner struggles for wanting to be sexually submissive and playing with her “sluttier” side. “

I like it.
