Devi Ansevi
Dean Koontz' Odd Thomas series fascinates me because of the main character's 'psychic magnetism.' I've had similar, though less woo-woo, experiences. Something will trigger an intense memory flash about someone I've not seen in months or years, and within a couple of days, I'll run into that person. I'd love to develop a plot around this phenomenon!

Hi, Richard, any format works for me - pdf, Mobi, or ePub. I'll PM you with my email address.

My most recently published book is "Every Day at Four: Erotic Confessions (Overheard at the Office)." I walked in on a conversation between two ladies at work which was definitely X-rated, and I thought...Wow, that's pretty private stuff to be discussing at work. I wonder how often it happens? That was the kernel of the idea that led to the story.

Well, ahem. Sometimes it's my own love life. I'm very fortunate to have a sexy and loving partner who is quite a source of inspiration. Other times, I'll read a story that has an interesting premise but I really don't like where the author takes it, and I'll think, "I would have done it differently..." So I do!

I have two novellas in progress, and two percolating in my hind brain. All my ebooks are published through Amazon's Kindle Direct Program.
(1) "Schooled to obey" is a trilogy about a governess who agrees to be a sexual servant to her mistress. In the first novella, Lily starts her training in submission, and finds that she really enjoys being the student for a change! It will be published on or before October 1st.
(2) The next book isn't yet titled, but it's an older man/younger woman romance with humor, heat, and heart. Elizabeth and Cooper haven't seen each other in years, not since she was a kid and he was in his 20s. Now she's finished a PhD and moving to Coop's home town to teach at the local college, and they can't keep their hands off each other. Coop hasn't found a woman who can handle his sexual appetites, until now. Tentative publication date is the end of October.
The other two stories are the 4th novella in the Victorian Seduction series, and a second date for Celia and Adam, whose sizzling first date (in Just Getting Started) had smoke rising from my keyboard.

Two things: Writing the type of stories that I like to read, and having other people read my work. I've so far written only erotica and non-fiction (under two different names), but I feel the same way about both genres!
Devi Ansevi
So far, I've never had writer's block in my favorite genre of erotica. In other writing, when I get stuck, I'll move away from the keyboard, grab a bunch of colored pens and pencils and highlighters, and start writing stream of consciousness thinking about whatever my topic is. I'll change colors as I move from one sub-topic to another, highlight particularly interesting thoughts. Basically, I'll take a "coloring book" break. Then I'll read over what I've done, and my fingers are itching to get back to the keyboard!
