Crazy weekend for family stuff. :-)<br />I personally feel more comfortable writing all male characters, but only because I enjoy how far I can push them. I find myself holding back with female characters, probably because of the way I was raised...putting females up on pedestals. <br />With men, I see a level playing field, so it's easier to rough 'em up and still stay true to who I am and how I relate to men and women in general.<br />I'm not sure if that makes sense, but I hope it sort of answered your question. <br />Hugs,<br />Robin/Tyler ;-)High Five Bakeshophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01046744131488217764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-64880221843016401192013-03-18T14:34:40.343-04:002013-03-18T14:34:40.343-04:00Melissa- the book sounds great!Melissa- the book sounds great!Liza O'Connorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11206604386433215482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-85048909764881523912013-03-18T12:09:46.328-04:002013-03-18T12:09:46.328-04:00Thanks to everyone who stopped by to join the conv...Thanks to everyone who stopped by to join the conversation and congrats to the authors on their new releases!<br /><br />And Congrats to Donna!

That was a very, very weird weekend.<br /><br />What's next -- my paranormal erotic romance novel Storm Season is coming out next month, I'm currently working on a MMF erotic romance with thriller overtones set in 1923 Berlin, I have to start work on the sequel to Storm Season once that's done, and I want to write a MMF Victorian paranormal erotic romance sometime this year. Oh, and people have been asking me to do a full-length sequel to A Boon by Moonlight. My writing schedule is booked well into 2014 at this rate.Nicola Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12710317013253753718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-29607681256657548712013-03-18T04:29:11.828-04:002013-03-18T04:29:11.828-04:00I wouldn't call it harder, but I'm much mo...I wouldn't call it harder, but I'm much more likely to talk to men or do research in order to make sure that I get it right with my male characters.

I'd just like to say first off that it's an honor to be here and I'm so grateful to you for hosting me and the other wonderful authors from Evernight!!<br /><br />Honestly like so many other M/M writers fanfiction (Star Trek anyone!?!) got me started in this particular genre. As for The Baker Gets His Man specifically I wrote it with Evernight's Romance on the Go line in mind. I wanted to do something short, sweet, and above all hot!<br /><br />Like the magnificent Robin said M/M is actually extremely popular with all kinds of people and it's been my favorite genre for years. The chemistry between two (or more!) male leads can be just as sexy and delicious as any other type of story. <br /><br />In the Baker Gets His Man you'll have the pleasure of meeting Jacob and Race and you'll see exactly what I mean about hot, steamy tension and sex!!<br /><br />Now good luck to everyone and I hope you all enjoy the wonderful titles that have been posted here!<br /><br />Love you all,<br /><br />Rebecca Rebecca Brochuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11932188745332886519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-90169584896616362072013-03-17T16:44:22.678-04:002013-03-17T16:44:22.678-04:00Hi bn100 I don't know about the other authors ...Hi bn100 I don't know about the other authors but I do. I wear green, have a beer, that kind of thing. I am almost all Irish so it's a fun day for us.<br /><br />Hi Eva I don't find it more difficult to write from the male perspective. Before, when I was still writing MF I made the male perspective a major part of my story so it seemed pretty natural to just write from two males. <br /><br />Hi Ilona I used to write historical MF romance and then interacial MF romance (two of those are still available from other publishers, but now I write MM exclusively.

The idea for A Boon by Moonlight was one of those idle "what if" moments -- two guys arguing/flirting with each other -- that started growing when my back was turned. Before I knew it, I had this story about a tough, lonely ex-Marine nursing his dying grandmother, and the smartass Sidhe noble who agrees to grant him a wish for a price. I've very happy that Boon's gotten such a good reception, and I'll be writing a full-length sequel sometime this year -- after all, there's a reason why Jerrek is avoiding Faerie.<br /><br />As for writing M/M romance, I'll be honest -- I first started writing it because it's more of what I like to look at (hey, if straight guys can enjoy watching women have sex, I can enjoy watching two hot guys get it on). My goal is to create realistic, engaging male characters who can resonate with the readers and pull them into the story. I feel I've done my job if a gay man reads my work and says, "God, I want a boyfriend just like that."<br /><br />I've been a published science fiction and urban fantasy writer since 1995, and started writing erotic romance last year when I saw the call for submissions for Evernight Publishing's naughty M/M Christmas antho Vanilla-Free Christmas: Manlove Edition and sold them my kinky M/M/M short story, "Tied With a Bow." My first full-length novel Storm Season, a paranormal M/M/M erotic romance and the first book in the Olympic Cove series, will be out from Evernight in April. You can find my website at http://www.nicolacameronwrites.com, with links to my Twitter and Facebook accounts, as well as free reads if folks want to sample my work.<br /><br />Thanks again for having me, and good luck to all the readers!<br /><br />Nicola Cameron<br />nicolacameronwrites.comNicola Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12710317013253753718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-38639946093057396062013-03-17T12:19:51.677-04:002013-03-17T12:19:51.677-04:00Thrilled to hear that, Donna!

There's been a request for a F/F follow up for Beyond Honor in the future, but the stars haven't quite aligned for that yet.<br />You are correct, love comes in many beautiful forms. <br />Writing M/M love is actually easier for me because most male characters aren't as hard to figure out as female characters. They still may have the "drama", but they handle it differently, in my opinion. :-)<br />Hugs,<br />TylerHigh Five Bakeshophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01046744131488217764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-56124014761332651352013-03-17T11:40:53.357-04:002013-03-17T11:40:53.357-04:00I loved Beyond Honor.

I'd had four previous releases with them and had both enjoyed my experience with Evernight and made some pretty good sales. It's been pretty easy to write MM stories with Evernight in mind and it was nice to reach some new to me readers.<br /><br />I've been writing and publishing MM since 2008 so I've been around for a bit. I started writing it because that's what I enjoyed reading myself. There's something about two guys getting all sexy and sweet together that is really special to me. In the beginning I used to try to continue to write MF as well as MM but I just found I was only intrested in reading and writng MM. I have fans who are men and fans who are women and I greatly appreciate them both.<br /><br />Good luck to readers to win a gift card and Happy St. Patrick's Day from this Irish writer!<br /><br />Shawn Lane<br />authorshawnlane.com Shawn Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15465277365345512695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-31851105464056567402013-03-17T11:09:26.788-04:002013-03-17T11:09:26.788-04:00Thank you so much for hosting some of my favorite ...Thank you so much for hosting some of my favorite fellow Evernight authors. <br /><br />I first started writing M/M books because I was asked by someone in the military to write a story involving soldiers in a post 'don't ask don't tell' world. I was very worried about taking on such a serious subject, but after the story came to me and my muse set his mind to the task, the characters came to life and my very first M/M story, "Beyond Honor", was born. <br />Now I find it hard to write anything else. <br />I have found that not only are my male/male stories popular among gay or bi men, but straight and sometimes even married women love it too. <br />If men can fantasize about two women, then it only makes sense that women can fantasize about two men. <br />With "Immortal Thirst", there are THREE yummy men to fantasize about, and I sincerely encourage the indulgence!! :-)<br /><br />Good luck, readers!
