I write m/m fiction with the occasional m/f and f/f for balance, but mainly I'm all about the slash. I enjoy writing long, plotty novels and quirky novellas featuring a heady mix of foxes, emperors, swordsmen, priests, ancient Greeks, Tang Dynasty China, Romans, Heian era Japan, yakuza bosses, magic, Mediterranean archaeology, British medieval abbeys, vampires, fantasy, opera singers, illusion, imperial ministers, wuxia, random theology, D/s and power, and--of course--romance mixed with oodles of hot manlove. As such, please be aware that some portions of this site are not suitable for minors.

My short story 'Ways & Means' is now available in the lesbian anthology Vamps from Torquere Press!
edited by Lorna Hinson with stories by Shanna Germain, Tracey Shellito, Teresa Noelle Roberts, Penelope Friday, JT Langdon, Erin O'Riordan, Mercy Loomis, Kate Cotoner, and Elizabeth Black
Seductive. Dangerous. Sexy. Girls with fangs, women who hunt vampires, lovers who only come in the dark of the night. Vamps are not just female vampires; they're femmes fatales. They're the women your mother warned you about, and the things that go bump in the night. They're beautiful and terrible, loving and disdainful.
Nine stories that range from historical to modern and from hard-boiled mystery to fantasy explore the world of the female vampire. They're strippers and goddesses, bluestockings and hippies, but they all have one thing in common. Lust. Lust for blood, and lust for life, or maybe unlife. All of the night stalkers in Vamps are ready and willing to find a good time.
Some of the best authors in lesbian erotica and romance are here, spinning tales about the dark world of creatures of the night, and about the women who love them, women who are drawn to the power and freedom that the vampire embodies. Vamps features stories from: Shanna Germain, Tracey Shellito, Teresa Noelle Roberts, Penelope Friday, JT Langdon, Erin O'Riordan, Mercy Loomis, Kate Cotoner, and Elizabeth Black. Vamp up your life a little today!
Available as an ebook for $5.95
Available in print for $13.95
