Author Interviews

 Lisette Marshall is a librarian by day and a writer of erotic fantasy romance by night. She combines a lifelong love for fairytales, mystery novels and sexy adventures in her steamy historical fantasy romances. The Princess & The Spy, an erotic fairytale trilogy, is her first work to be published.

When Lisette isn’t dreaming about gorgeous heroes and sensual heroines, she can usually be found reading about weird history, playing the violin or baking way too many chocolate cookies for herself and her boyfriend. 

 Monica Enderle Pierce and her characters have been kicking the crap out of evil since 2012. She writes fantasy and science fiction. Her stories are filled with strong women, smart men, love, adventure, and magic. She has an English literature degree from the University of California, Los Angeles, and she lives in Seattle, Washington, with her husband, their daughter, a neurotic dog, and two crazy tomcats. When she's not sending characters into battle or off on an adventure, she's reading minds, seeing through walls, and reveling in the glorious Pacific Northwest rain.  

 C.E. Page has been dreaming up stories of faraway places and strange magics for as long as she can remember. She lives on the east coast of Australia with her partner, Evan, two balls of pure energy in the shape of young boys, and a honey badger masquerading as dog.

An avid reader and gamer, she loves devouring a good story in whatever form it takes. When not writing, reading or commandeering the PlayStation from the kids, she can be found quilting, knitting, or playing D&D. She also has possesses the bad habit of going down too many rabbit holes when doing research and finds talking about herself in the third person extremely odd.

 Tallie Rose lives in Charleston, SC with her husband and two kids. When she's not writing or reading she loves finding strange things at thrift stores, trying to keep her house plants alive, and watching cheesy tv shows. 

Her debut novel Sea and Flame comes out in March.

When not devouring or creating books, you can find Emily watching Gilmore Girls (for the 20th time), belting out showtunes, attending the latest con, brainstorming how she can go to Disney World (again), or figuring out how to make the perfect combination of chocolate and nachos.

Sheri fell in love with reading at age twelve when she read The Black Stallion series by Walter Farley. One day, after nearly tossing an unsatisfying book out the window, she wrote her own, with characters doing what she wanted them to do. They came to life in her head and Sheri never looked back.
