Eroticon 2017 - London

My name is Scarlett Flame and you can find me here on twitter

What are you hoping to get out of Eroticon 2017?

I want to learn about any number of subjects connected to writing and publication. This seems an amazing place to learn all this. Networking with others is integral to all this. As an ex-nurse, and Health Visitor, I am very aware of the usefulness of networking.

The principles of blogging, promotion, presenting a bid to publish with a publisher. The list goes on. I am also looking forward to meeting up with all the other authors, and bloggers. Although, a number of them are already good friends of mine. Be it in person, or through social networks, such as Facebook and twitter.

This years schedule at Eroticon is pretty full on but which 4 sessions do you already have marked down as ones you want to attend?

There are SO many I am interested in attending. The ones I have earmarked though are firstly - From Hero to Zero - in order to understand more of the principles of setting up a website/blog. Although I have two blogs and a website, I am also a bit of a technophobe. Struggling at times.

The second on my must attend list is Obscene Text: Free Speech and the Written Word - Myles Jackman. I think with all the tightening up of legislation regarding erotic writing, it is surely better to know how not to run fowl of the law!

Third session is Hands On Rope Workshop: Djfet, just because I love rope so much! That's it really. Shibari and Kinkabu fascinates me. I love to watch the interaction between the person being tied, and the rigger tying them.

The last of my must watch/ must attend sessions is Pitching 101: learn to sell your ideas - Girl on the Net. Basically because without an income coming in to the house, I wouldn't be able to carry on writing seriously. This involves being able to sell your products. The fruit of your labour, so to say. I love, love, love to write but, I also love to eat and maintain my home.

This is not to say I won't be entralled, intersted and intrigued by all the sessions available  to participate in.

 Tell us one thing about yourself that not many people know?

That is a hard one. I have given away SO many of my secrets over the years in my blog posts, and interviews.

Perhaps it is that I would love to have been a professional singer. I love to sing, and used to be in a number of amateur dramactic groups over the years. I acted, and sang, in an amateur fashion.

I am not too bad apparently as I once managed to come second in a Karaoke contest. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

If you made the papers, what would the headline be?

Ha ha I have already made the headlines in my local paper when I was going to run for Council. I wanted to represent the local community. Our councillors were and for the most part still are, a bunch of people that basically only knew how to toe the party line!

The results were a headline basically proclaiming that I wrote erotica, as if I had no other skills to offer. I was an ex-nurse, Health Visitor and mother, much longer than I have been a writer. But. all they were interested in, was a headline to sell papers. Sad really. I decided that I would pull out of the election. Being bullied by others who didn't like me going up against the local councillors helped me to make that decision. People can be so short-sighted.

If you could have one skill for free (I.e. without practice/time/effort) what would it be?

I would love to be able to transfer my time-management skills as a nurse, to my ability to write. I am a dreadful procrastinator. I go on Facebook, or twitter, then get stuck. I know I am not the only one though.

If I could transfer those skills I would have hundreds of books under my belt by now.


Complete the sentence: I love it when…   

I get to make new friends and learn. I am a perpetual student, having attended three different universities ove the years. 

To see who else has responded, go to the Eroticon webpage and visit the others.

Cover Reveal Darkness Surrounds: Living A Lie Series

​

M.L. Kacy

Feb 25^th  

Darkness surrounds me, a dreary, cold, place with no escape.

Feeling lost, alone and confused I’m sucked deep into my own mind.

A place I soon became comfortable in, a place where I can hide.

The darkness becomes my respite, my shelter.

A buffer from the devastation of my own broken dreams.

Trapped in my own mind I search in circles for

answers.

Surviving but not living, my heart bleeding and broken from my loss.

Torn up by guilt, thoughts of being punished for some perceived fault.

Confusion and turmoil become my only companions.

I need to start living again they tell me - but could I?

Do I have the strength to crawl my way out of my own mind?

Then again, do I really want to?

If I do escape the void will I still be me and if not, can I accept the person I’ve become?

Follow my journey in part two of my Living A Lie Series.

***Disclaimer- Some of the content in this book can cause triggers for some. Also, contains profanity, erotic scenes and only suitable for readers 18+***

I have been involved in the indie community for several years and have always loved how everyone comes together in support of each other.
I love writing and reading, living life with my family, and always coming up with new ideas and putting then in to practice.

Words have a way of healing someone, so I will carry on writing, included events that have happened and taking you all on a journey with me.

Living A Lie

(Part One)

by

M.L. Kacy

Feb 11^th

In your early adult years, you think that you know it all. Well that’s how I was looking back on my life. Nearly nineteen-years later, it’s true what they say, you always learn by your mistakes, mistakes make you into a stronger person. Boy, did I make a hell of a lot of mistakes. I never thought that my life would turn out the way that it did. There are only four things that I would never regret, my four beautiful children. They were, and still are, my saving grace, my redemption of sorts. When the darkness became too much, thoughts of them would pull me into the light.

This is my story, it’s not a story that is all sweetness and light. It’s a story of love, regret, devastation, darkness and maybe a little redemption.

So here we are, I shall start from the beginning.
Part One

***Disclaimer- Some of the content in this book can cause triggers for some. Also, contains profanity, erotic scenes and only suitable for readers 18+***

Jacob turned out to be a sweet talker. He stood there, dressed in jeans that had made his arse look as if it needed squeezing. His chest, snuggly wrapped in a tight fitting, black t-shirt, jet-black hair was worn short, and this divine aftershave I had never before smelt; but it had a lemon undertone that emphasized his own mouth-watering, natural, musky scent. Man, his eyes, were stunning. Emerald green, clear, and hypnotic, surrounded by lush, long, thick, black lashes that tempted me to do things I had never before thought of, or wanted. Those stunning eyes, combined with a sensual mouth, and that was it, I was completely lost.

There have been many times that I have opened this book and closed it again, as I was never sure it would be received well in the book community, but then I thought I am writing this for me, and doing something I always wanted to do.
This book is based on true of events in my own life, so it has in some form been therapeutic to write. Words have a way of healing someone, so I will carry on writing, included events that have happened and taking you all on a journey with me.

I have been involved in the indie community for a number of years and have always loved how everyone comes together in support of each other. 
I love writing and reading, living life with my family, and always coming up with new ideas and putting then in to practice. 
I hope you all will carry on this journey with me.

New Release The Velvet Chair is Book One in a Dark Erotica Series called 'Velvet Lies.' by Christina Mandara

The Velvet Chair is Book One in a Dark Erotica Series called 'Velvet Lies.'

Blurb

My name is Mark Matthews. I own half of London, and the part I don’t own, I’m working on.

Life was all going swimmingly well until Michael Redcliff entered my life, demanding that I marry his daughter. Actually, swap demand for blackmail. He’s got goods on me that I want no one else to see, so for the time being I need to be his little lapdog.

I’ll marry his daughter. I’ll give him all the status, money and power he can handle... for as long as it takes me to get a divorce. You see, I can’t renege on our little arrangement – but she can. I give her a week. One week and she’ll be screaming the place down for her legal counsel.

Excerpt – Jennifer

My hands were visibly shaking. Flexing my fingers repeatedly, I tried to still the tremors, but they were not to be subdued. It was hardly surprising. Today was the day I walked up the aisle and married… a monster. I was under no illusions that Mark Matthews would forgive me for what had happened, and I could hardly blame him. He’d been manipulated and sexually tortured until he could take no more, and then he’d been neatly cornered. He might have agreed to my father’s demands, but he’d come snapping and biting, feral as a wolf.

I sighed. Today was supposed to be a magical day – every little girl’s fantasy. A gigantic cathedral, a sea of flowers, a big fancy dress, and the man of my dreams. I’d imagined it would be filled with tears of happiness and protestations of love. How stupid was I?

Inhaling a shaky breath, I wondered what Mark would do with me. Having always been the sacrificial lamb in this family, today I was being sent off to the slaughterhouse. When I’d mentioned this to Michael, I’d refused to call him ‘Dad’ a long time ago, he’d laughed and told me to stop being so melodramatic. As if that made me feel any better. Dear old Dad couldn’t care less whether I lived or died, so I didn’t waste my breath trying to plead with him. All I had to do was play my part in this charade and he would be happy. I needed to keep Michael happy at all costs. The trouble was, in order to play my part, Matthews had to trust me, and I had a feeling that trying to coax that emotion out of him was going to be almost as impossible as trying to convince the Queen of England to relinquish her throne. Matthews wasn’t the sort to trust easily, and now that I had lost what little ground I had gained with him, I would be back to square one. Wrong, I thought grimly. I was going to be at least twenty stories below square one, trying to claw my way out with nothing more than my bare fingernails. Facing up to facts, I stifled a sob. The man was going to annihilate me.

Excerpt – Mark

As we pulled out of the Savoy’s car park, Jennifer was a mess. I had little sympathy for her. Each heartbeat that tore through my chest was full of fire, which spat sparks and burned like acid. I was sitting next to a traitor. My body throbbed with emotion, and not the good kind.

I had to admit the dress she’d changed into, just a tiny part of the massive trousseau that was now being shipped to my estate, was rather distracting. It was designed in a glistening oyster silk that caught the light every time she moved. It was seductive enough without the two splits that ran up the side of her thighs, and when she’d seated herself in my car, revealing a vast expanse of soft creamy flesh, my blood pressure had taken a direct hit.

My temper was already simmering in a large saucepan full of resentment, but that turned up the heat considerably. I did not want to be attracted to Redcliff’s daughter. I wanted to abhor her with all that was holy. Desire would weaken my anger, and that must not be allowed to happen. I needed to have a stern talk with my overactive libido and let it know who was boss around these parts.

Little did Miss Redcliff know, but she wouldn’t be requiring clothes for the duration of her stay. I would thoughtfully be providing her with all sorts of novel uniforms, and when she began to bore me, she could just go around naked. I’d decided to train her up to be a sex slave extraordinaire, and it was going to be an exacting and rigorous process. She’d be allowed six hours of sleep a day, and the rest of her hours would be accounted for. Cooking, cleaning, ironing, servicing me, pleasing me, attending to her own personal fitness regime, and some more ‘standard’ training sessions.

Failure to comply with her new routine would produce punishments the likes of which she had never experienced. After her first misdemeanour had been dealt with, I didn’t think there would be many more. I was in bastard-mode, and the girl was going to know about it. She had just become my property and I would deal with her however I saw fit. The mark of my ownership would be indelibly printed on her soul by the time I’d finished with her. The damn woman was going to fear the sound of my footsteps, her body would shrink away from me every time I approached her and she would learn to obey my every whisper or suffer the consequences.

My lawyer had already drawn up two sets of papers, one for an annulment and the others pertained to our divorce. It would probably take all the fun out of the arrangement if Jennifer opted for an annulment, so I didn’t intend to scare her witless in the first few days, but I fully expected the divorce papers to be completed inside of a week. I just needed to push the woman to her absolute limit, and then smash her body into the next dimension. If there was one thing I was good at, it was psychological and physical torture. Okay, so that might be two things. In any case, I’d get those papers signed, sealed, and delivered back to Michael Redcliff before the week was out. Piece of cake.

A little bit about C.P. Mandara:

Christina Mandara is a USA TODAY bestselling author and tends to write dark romance with lashings of kinky naughtiness. Her favourite pastime is travelling, and if it involves sun, sea and… sand then it’s all good.

In her spare time she’s usually cuddled up with a good book, exploring the countryside or baking in the kitchen. In fact, she loves her kitchen so much she’s one of few woman who wouldn’t mind being tied to it! Her first and foremost love is writing, however, and more often than not you’ll find her on a laptop spinning tales of romance, erotica or dark, paranormal fantasies.

She's a big fan of BDSM in all of its glorious forms, and her favourite item in the toy closet (a box simply isn’t big enough) is her riding crop.
