Hi Everyone…
Well, it’s been three years since the release of my first femdom novel, and it’s soon to come to an end.
I have released five femdom novels so far, the first four of which (The Paramount Rule, Prisoners of the Governess, Reformation, and Stronghold) were stand-alone re-edits of my original project, The Paramount Rule Trilogy. My fifth novel, The Penitentiary, was an idea which I developed from a true-life concept, and was (I think?) the first published ‘femdom thriller.’
Although my originally intended Paramount Rule Trilogy may see print at some time in the future, in terms of new material, my next novel, Under the Paramount Rule: Tales of Oakpark Grange, will be my final offering. I now work as an English teacher at a college close to my home, hence the new demands on my time.
When I first started out, I became a sought-after novelist remarkably quickly, picking up four publishers within eighteen months. I always enjoyed receiving words of appreciation in my email, however, it was not always so. My experience as a writer of erotica has also been a harrowing one. I have endured words of misogynistic hatred, and even death threats from anonymous evangelical fundamentalists. There have been those who have demanded that I write stories of the most abhorrent kind for them, only to become deeply insulting towards me when I refused. I have received contact from people who implied that they were involved in human trafficking and the non-consensual torture of innocent people. As ludicrous as such claims may seem, all told, it has been an emotionally exhausting experience.
Although my novels have focused primarily on orgasm denial, it is my strongly-held view that there can be no greater evil than for one person to deny another the right to his/her own body. Nevertheless, this occurs all too frequently in places such as US prisons and communities that operate under religious doctrine. Such is the antithesis of what I truly represent – freedom.
I wish to thank all of my readers and those who have supported me over the last four years.
Under the Paramount Rule: Tales of Oakpark Grange will be released on December 7th from Pink Flamingo Publications in both paperback and ebook, and will be available right here onFemdomCave.
I hope that you enjoy the new novel, and I bid you always – happy orgasms.
