How did you get started?
I've been a technical writer for about 20 years -- it only feels like more -- and like most tech writers, there resided within me a fiction writer wanting to come out. One day, I was doing laps in the local pool and my mind started to drift as it often does when you're doing laps. By the time I'd finished my workout, I'd plotted my first story, which became the opening chapter of Incubus.
I posted the chapter on Literotica, not knowing what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised at the reception.
After about 40 submissions to Literotica -- some roundly panned but most well-rated -- I decided to take the plunge and get into e-books.
What is the greatest joy of writing for you?
Writing is always a challenge, but there are days that it just flows and you re-read what you've written and have one of those "wow" moments.
And of course, there are the readers who take the time to let you know that you've done a good job. That's really what gives me the greatest pleasure.
