I was invited by Mina Carter (http://mina-carter.com/2014/05/writing-process-blog-hop/ ) to participate in the writing process blog hop. As many of you know, I love Mina’s writing and I love Mina as a person. Check out her blog and her stories!
1) What am I working on?
I’m currently writing story 9 in the 12 novella Sinful Rewards serial from Avon Impulse (the first story is releasing in July and is available for pre-order right now). I’m super excited because Gabriel Blaine (from He Watches Me, He Touches Me, He Claims Me) made a brief appearance in story 8. The billionaire club in the U.S. is very small so, of course, Nicolas knows Blaine.
2) How does my work differ from others of its genre?
I might write about billionaires and bikers, common heroes in Romanceland, but they’re not stock characters. Each hero is unique with his own distinct personality and complex history. There are usually no ‘bad guys’ in my stories. There are characters who try to stop the hero or heroine from achieving their goals but they have their own reasons for doing this. Some of these reasons are quite noble.
I often write about exhibitionism and voyeurism, two popular kinks. I believe that monogamy doesn’t have to be monotonous and exhibitionism/voyeurism (even if it exists only in our imagination) are two easy fun ways that couples can spice up their relationships.
3) Why do I write what I do?
I love writing erotic romance because I believe sex is part of a healthy romantic relationship. This genre allows me to tell the WHOLE story, leaving nothing out.
Erotic romance readers are the best. They’re tolerant, easy going, very supportive. Their anything goes attitude allows me to tell stories the way I want to tell them. No internal censor, baby!
4) How does your writing process work?
I’m a pantser, which means I write by the seat of my pants, without a plot. I usually know my characters and the first scene before I sit down at that blank screen. I’m writing story 9 of Sinful Rewards and I’m racing to the finish, wanting to know how the serial ends.
Sinful Rewards 1
Cynthia Sax
Belinda “Bee” Carter is a good girl; at least, that’s what she tells herself. And a good girl deserves a nice guy—just like the gorgeous and moody billionaire Nicolas Rainer. He is everything she wants in a man.
Or so she thinks, until she takes a look through her telescope and sees a naked, tattooed man on the balcony across the courtyard. Hawke is mysterious, the bad boy she knows will bring only heartbreak. He has been watching her, and that makes him all the more enticing.
But when a mysterious and anonymous text message dares her to do something bad, she must decide if she is really the good girl she has always claimed to be, or if she’s willing to risk everything for her secret fantasy of being watched.
Is her mystery man the reclusive billionaire with a wild side or the darkly dangerous bad boy?
