Ashe
Barker
Ashe
whiles away her time in the wilds of West Yorkshire, in the north of
England, writing smutty books and drinking Earl Grey tea. At the last
count she had over thirty titles on general release, many featuring
BDSM, always hot, with complex characters and compelling plots. Ashe
writes MM and Mf, contemporary and historical, with the occasional
threesome thrown in.
When
not writing Ashe enjoys messing around with digital photography,
reading erotic stories, pole dancing (though not especially well),
walking her dogs, and listening to Bon Jovi. Loud.

C. Sanchez-Garcia
At
this particular time in a wandering, often bizarre and unexpected
life, C. Sanchez-Garcia is living quietly in eastern Georgia, where
the size of his personal library is bursting the walls of his little
house. He stubbornly believes in passion, God, sensuality and
spirituality, and that a good love story is life's finest medicine
for melancholy. He is the author of the erotic novellas Mortal
Engines and the Color of the Moon
and the charity erotica collection Coming
Together Presents: C. Sanchez-Garcia.
Several of his stories have been published in various volumes of the
Mammoth
Book of Best New Erotica and
Coming Together anthologies as well as the Erotica Readers and
Writers Association's online gallery and permanent archives. If you
would like to meet the author you will find him on Facebook and at
the ERWA writer's blog
where Sanchez-Garcia's blog appears hell or high water on the 15th of
every month.

D. James
Cameron
D. James is a life-long lover of books, voraciously reading
everything from the classics to sci-fi, romance to science and
nature, and thrillers to erotica. Understandably, a love of books led
to a love of writing, having penned his first story in grade seven
(about stolen baseball cards). Having written millions of words by
now, Cameron now focuses on one of his favourite genres — gay
erotica.
Cameron
is a fan of Star Trek, having seen every episode of every series
(including the animated series) and every movie at least twice. In
addition to Star Trek, Cameron also loves physical exercise and
seeing how far he can push his body. He’s taken kickboxing, Bikram
hot yoga (that’s the super hot and tough one), diving, personal
training at the gym, and likes his regular Wii workouts (seriously,
they’re a lot more intense than they look).
Other
interests include listening to electronica music (particularly Armin
Van Buuren), puttering around the house (and attempting to grow a
garden), and gawking at cute twink baristas at the various coffee
shops where he’s such a regular that he’s known by first name.

K
D Grace
For
K D Grace, penning a good tale is a physical act. When she’s not
writing, K D is veg gardening or walking. Her creativity is directly
proportional to how much soil is under her fingernails or how quickly
she wears out a pair of walking boots. She’s having a mad affair
with a pair of kettle bells at her local gym and an even madder
affair with a stainless steel pole in the pole fitness studio just
across the street. She’s fascinated with mythology and fairy tales,
which inspires many of her stories. She loves to read. She loves
anything that gets her out of doors. But she loves writing a story
best of all.
Voted
ETO Best Erotic Author of 2014, K D is the author of sixteen novels
and multiple novellas and short stories for multiple publishers. She
also writes romance under the name Grace Marshall. At present she is
excitedly publishing her Medusa’s Consortium urban fantasy series.
The first three novels, beginning with In
The Flesh,
are now available.

Morticia Knight
Author
Morticia Knight spends most of her nights writing about men loving
men forever after. If there happens to be some friendly bondage or
floggings involved, she doesn’t begrudge her characters whatever
their filthy little hearts desire. Even though she’s been crafting
her naughty tales for more years than she’d like to share—her
adventures as a published author began in 2011. Since then, she’s
been fortunate enough to have several books on bestseller lists along
with titles receiving recognition in the Rainbow Book Awards, Divine
Magazine and Love Romance Café.
Once
upon a time she was the lead singer in an indie rock band that toured
the West Coast and charted on U.S. college radio. She currently
resides on the North Oregon coast and when she’s not fantasizing
about hot men, she takes walks along the ocean and annoys the local
Karaoke bar patrons.

Tim Smith
I’ve
had an interest in writing since I was in high school, and gravitated
toward the pulp fiction genre popularized by writers like Raymond
Chandler and Mickey Spillane. I used to watch the movie versions of
their stories and became hooked on the whole film noir thing. That
started me on my lifelong love affair with all things Humphrey Bogart
and Alan Ladd. My mother was an avid reader and suggested that if I
liked the movies, I should read the books to see how they compared.
When
I took up writing full time 15 years ago, my first fictional
character was a former CIA spook named Nick Seven, who lives in Key
Largo, Florida with a Barbadian beauty named Felicia, who is a former
co-worker. Key West in July doesn’t generate as much heat as these
two when they mate, and Felicia is a kick-ass companion whenever the
bad guys come calling. After that series took off (5 so far and more
on the way), I decided to indulge my passion for private eye fiction
by creating another character, Vic Fallon. He’s a former cop turned
gumshoe who lives on the Lake Erie shore in northern Ohio (near where
I grew up). His adventures evoke Chandler’s Phillip Marlowe, but in
a contemporary setting. My other titles would fall under the banner
of contemporary erotic romantic comedy, the kind of thing you’d see
on Lifetime.
Last
year, I retired from civil service, and continued being a freelance
writer for a local newspaper and several online sites. Just when
retirement had become a comfortable habit, I was coaxed out of it by
the publisher of the weekly paper I was writing for. I’m now the
Editor, and I’m enjoying my newest career. The only drawback is
that after spending all day reading and editing other writers’
stories, I don’t want to devote time to my own! I guess this is why
they invented days off.
