Interview with the Talented Phyllis aka T.R. Stampz
My dear friend Phyllis has a wonderful and very sexy alter ego T.R. Stampz. This girl can write the HOT stuff like none other I have read. Talk about making a girl all hot and sweaty...These guys do that and more. T.R Stampz has a way of writing bad boys that makes you suck in a breathe and fan yourself as you read. But... don't let that fool you, this isn't all about sex, there is a depth to her characters that makes them real. It isn't all wham, bam and thank -you sir. So if you like you bad boys, good in all the right places and hot little stories that make you go Mmmm, then please don't let this budding Author slip you by!
Could you tell us a little about yourself?
I am a wife, mother, and grandmother. I live in a very small farm town in southwestern Ohio in converted chicken house. I have worked a variety of jobs in my life ranging from department store clerk to restaurant manager to factory worker. My most recent adventure in the working world, other than writing, was as a license medical massage therapist. I love reading, writing, and crocheting.
What is the title of your new book and if you had to sum it up in 30 or less words, what would you say?
My newest book is called Hot Ridez and will be released on April 30th. Hot Ridez is a collection of erotic stories with a bad boy theme. The boys are definitely bad in a very good way.
If you gave one of your characters an opportunity to speak for themselves, what would they say?
What a fantastic question. I would have to say that if I could give a voice to one of my characters it would have to be Daphne from Riding Vinny. I believe she would tell you being married for safety or for love isn’t always easy and love isn’t always safe but with the right person can be easy.
Do you have plans for a new book? Is this book part of a series?
I am currently working of several different books. My first full length novel, yet untitled, I would like to publish under my real name is about a rollercoaster romance between a football player and a sports reporter. I am also working on another erotica collection called Bike Night at Jackass Flats. This collection will follow the adventures of three best friends as they attend and event held at a local bar.
What made you start writing and did you go down the path of self-publishing or did you seek out a publisher?
I have been writing for as long as I can remember. The first thing I ever wrote was a letter to my sister when I was about 8 years old. I just recently found out that even though it has been over 30 years since that letter was written, she still has it. I would love to be able to see it again and know what I wrote. I have always used letter writing as a way to express my feelings. I grew up in a tumultuous house where feelings were never expressed. So I would sit and write letters to imaginary people to express myself. Later, I started writing short stories from journal entries I had written.
I have never self-published any of my work. I was actually very fortunate in becoming friends with Danielle Zwissler of Firefly and Wisp Book Publishing. I became an editor and decided on a whim to submit one of my short stories. She asked if I could write more with a similar theme because she would like to publish them as a collection. That collection is Hot Ridez.
Is there an Author who has influenced you or one that you would really like to meet?
Wow, there are so many wonderful authors out there that I have influenced me in some way or another. It is hard for me to choose just one. At one time I would have said the author I would love to meet is Stephen King, but recently I have moved away from him. I think I would have to say who I would like to meet most now would be indie author, Christy Mazzetti Watson. She is a friend on Facebook and has encouraged me through some very difficult times. I would love to be able to thank her in person.
List 3 books you just recently read and would recommend?
I am currently reading the Detective Marcella Mysteries series by Dana Donovan. It is an amazing series about a witches, magic, and murder mystery. I am currently reading book 6 in the series. The characters are fun and the plots keep you guessing. I would and have recommended this series to many of my friends.
If your book was made into a TV series or Movie, what actors would you like to see playing your characters?
Hmmm, since my books are not exactly made for TV or even one that would be seen on the shelves at your local video store, unless you go behind the curtain in the back of the store, I have not really given any thought as to who I would choose to play the characters. The only character I had a real idea of what he looked like is Drew from Drew’s Hot Lap. That character had a face before I even started that story. Drew has always been NASCAR driver Tony Stewart.
Ok Now for some fun J ….
Sleep in or get up early?
I am definitely a stay up all night and sleep all day type of person. Unfortunately, I am married to someone who is in bed early and up before the sun.
Tea or coffee?
Coffee with cream and sugar or as my friends would say cream and sugar with a bit of coffee.
Sweet or Savory?
Wow! This one is hard. It really depends on my mood and what I am writing at the time. If it is something sad then sweet all the way, but if I am writing a scene where the character is showing a lot of attitude, then definitely savory.
EBook or paperback?
I have to have both actually. I love the feel of a book in my hand, the smell of the paper, and the sound of a page being turned. I love being able share what I am writing with others, but they are warned ahead of time, if they wrinkle the spine or dog ear the pages then they will never get to borrow another of my books. My paperbacks are my babies. I love the convenience of an eBooks for when I am on the go. I love how I can take my book on my phone or tablet without having the weight of the paperback.
One of your favorite quotes -
I have so many, but I think one of my most recent favorites is from the movie Dad starring Jack Lemmon and Ted Danzan. This line is delivered by Jack’s character when he was speaking to his wife. "Dying is not a sin, but not living is."

So...what to do next?
I haven't posted anything of great content in a while, so I thought I had better. So what have I been up to these last few weeks...well a whole lot lol. First off i was sick, some stupid bug that almost put into hospital, then I have been busy writing. You see for the last few months my husband has barley been home, so to fight the loneliness I lose myself in my work. That and I can't sleep so I have to find something to do. It also allow me much time to read, which I love doing. by the way if this post is some what erratic then I am blame lack of sleep, 16hrs in the last 5 days really isn't enough lol.
Anyways I have also been working hard so that I can be ready for the release of Death Lilly! Yay! I am so excited. So with that in mind I am stock piling stories. I have also decided that for the next little while I will not be starting new paranormal stories. I have 2 to finish and then that will be it for the next few months.
So what will I be writing, well my wonderful publish, whom I often praise, has asked me to do some more erotica writing. And, well with my husband being away so much it is fun to have a avenue to vent that stuff to. Plus I am hoping that I can deliver something exciting to read. In truth I never thought that would be something I was good at writing so, fingers cross, we'll see how it all pans out in the next few months lol.
Also I want to focus on doing a romance novel. Not the kind where prince charming sweeps you off your feet and ends with marriage and 2.5 kids but a more modern base story on the way a person can love with ones heart but it is not always enough. Sometimes the person you lust after is not the person you should be with etc, because as most of you who have read my stuff know, I like to write a little bit dark and have twist and turn. Most of all I want the read unsure of who to love and who to hate lol.
Also I want to do a classic horror story, that came to me one night. You know the kind, some crazed man who lives in the Nevada, out in the desert. He believes he is the second coming and is stating a cult but first he must father 12 sons. The story will be a spiral of his madness that he tries to suck his family into and the way his first son is caught between wishing to escape and the need to be a dutiful son. I wont start this story though until I finish my other commitments.
Anyway I thought I would leave you with some little teasers of everything I have been working on this last month (BTW I tend to write more then one story at a time, it is just my style). Yes i am trying to bribe you into liking my work. I really do want to sell many book lol! Enjoy guys xox
Snippet #1 the romance story
“Abigail. Stop!” a voice roared from behind her. Abigail stopped, turned and glared at the man whom she had wished to escape from.
“What?” she snapped, the alcohol causing her to forget her manners.
“Why are you running away from me?” He asked, those big blue eyes searching for answers.
“Why are you here?” she retorted.
“Answer me.”
“You first.”
“Really, are these the kind of childish games you want to be playing right now?”
Snippet # 2 an erotic story
“Yes pet, I can tell, after all these months your body still responses to me like I finely tuned piano. I just need to press a key and the music begins. Your body wants to play a tune for me, any tune I desire and so it shall. I will play you until you are worn out. I will remind you why my Angel shall never leave her master again and then I will punish you for doing just that. I have had six months to think about how this symphony would play out. Don’t ever forget that, my pet, just when you think you are spent, I will pull something else out and your body will do just as I say.”
Snippet #3 paranormal horror
'Fine. Go ahead. Kill me!' I yelled as the tears started to fall. 'I have nothing left. You have taken everything from me, destroyed me, broken my heart and crushed my soul. To die at your hands only seems natural now. Just do it quick.” I wept, allowing my body to go limp.
Ok i think that is enough...well until my next blog maybe lol.
