Life seems to be moving fast around here. In my last blog I said I was determined to self publish one of my favorite books to date. I am still determined to go the self publishing route. Only in a different way.
Yes, I am a woman, Yes I can change my mind.
I has been pointed out to me that my readers expect certain things from my books
#1. A good love story without predictability. I hate predictable stories too.
#2. Strong women that choose to be with her men/man. No wishy washy pitiable females allowed, My ladies choose, rather than need a man to lean on and entrust her love to. Women that can make it on their own, but choose to blend their lives with a lover.
#3. Hero's have to be intelligent, employed, & they MUST be sexy, well developed (yes there too) and handsome. They can have flaws, but their women must come first in their lives. Very strong protective streak is a must !
#4. The story must be more than 'just sex'. Yes to great sex. Yes to explicit, inventive sexual situations. No to strangers humping like bunny rabbits passing in the field.
#5. Enduring love, a love that can stay strong through hardship and good times. A Happy Ever After.
It occurs to me that all of the above are actually traits that all humans wish for in a mate. I will continue to bring those traits to my readers in the characters of my books.
So, what to do, what to do, with the stories lying in wait deep inside my computer? Those stories that are darker, more violent, more sadistic, just more than my faithful readers expect from me?
Create another Pen name, and self publish the books that are beyond my normal. The new name will help keep the confusion down. You expect certain things from Lynn Ray Lewis. You will continue to get them.
Charlette Morgan is the darker side. more edge, more violence ( at times). And yes Sadist paired with masochist's. These are not your run of the mill BDSM stories. They do not contain misogynistic men, or pitiful, slavish women. They will continue to be strong individuals that choose to share their lives together. The characters fulfill needs in each other that only true masochists and sadists can give to each other. And they are love stories, stories of mutual respect, love that grows, and as always, a Happy Ever After.
The first Charlette Morgan book is now for sale on Smashwords and its affiliates. It can be purchased for $ 1.99 as an introductory price. Control Inc. Wulfgang Style.
This is definitely not a book for anyone under the age of 18. And it contains very strong sexual scenes.
I have some other news that I cannot share with anyone as of yet, it is killing me to keep quiet for now. I promise, as soon as I can I will update you on this event.!
Life is strange. As soon as you think you have it figured out, things change. For me this has been especially true this year. Doing the happy dance.
