Lots of Kinks and Unconventional Alphas (February Past Pages Pt1)

In 2024, I ran a series called ‘Past Pages’ in my reader group. Each month, I’d spotlight past books published during that month – sharing writing secrets, character insights, and the stories behind them. I even opened the floor for questions and comments. This year, I’m bringing ‘Past Pages’ to my blog! Feel free to join the conversation, whether you participated last year, or not. I’m excited to revisit these books with you!

Discovering Domination

When I first started writing, I remember pacing around my tiny apartment kitchen and talking to myself. I was listing off all the random things I liked to read that I thought I could come up with ideas for.

Unsurprisingly, there was a lot of kink lol.

Yep, not shocking at all.

Now keep in mind, the only FB account I had back then just had about 5 friends and they were all family. I hardly ever posted on it much less followed anyone. I didn’t even realize people followed authors and talked to them online. I also didn’t know any other authors and didn’t realize until after I’d been writing for a few months that there were groups online where I could meet other authors.

So my list had things like femdom romance ideas and a variety of different kinds of kinks and things like MM and MMF ideas. But I hadn’t seen any MM books on Amazon that were like the books in my head so I started with my femdom ideas.

Yes, I was still learning when I wrote these but I was soooo proud of myself. Discovering Domination wasn’t my first femdom book but I love this cover and these characters. I still get emails every few months from readers who’ve found these books and I keep thinking about going back and writing more books in this genre.

Answer in the Comments: What other genres do you like to read? What questions do you have for me about Discovering Domination?

Bashful

My omegas.

I love all these guys but Cutie the Cop is one my favorites. He’s an unconventional alpha and doesn’t really fit in where people want to put him.

Until he meets Austin.

I love how Gideon (Cutie’s real name lol) let’s himself get swept away in Austin’s shenanigans and I love how he’s painfully shy about what makes him special but he doesn’t let that hold him back forever.

Sometimes it’s hard to know when to stop a series or stop writing in a world, but you guys were amazing and made sure I knew you weren’t done with the omegas when the first series came to a stopping point.

If you haven’t read about the omegas start with the Romance and Revolution series (there’s a free prequel on my site) and then come over to this series. It’ll make the most sense that way.

Answer in the Comments: If you have read this series, what kind of character do you want to see next? Any of the side characters who’ve been mentioned catch your eye? Do you have any questions for me about Bashful?
