And you can still find all my paranormal erotica novels and series at my books site.  That hasn’t changed, cause I love the vampy site for my books!

Okay, I’m outta here.  Come see me!!

~`*~`*~`*~`*~

I was totally jazzed about this cause I’ve never been crazy about the poly condoms Wes and I use (Trojan Supra).  The polyurethane material pinches my pussy, and it burns Wes’s dick.  Not fun.

Since Wes always complains about a lack of sensitivity with the poly condoms (even though they’re reallllllly thin) I bought the thinnest latex condoms I could find…Trojan Ultra-Thin.  Much to my delight they were as thin and transparent as the Supras.

Alrightyyyy!

Guess what?  We gave them a test drive on one of our sex dates a few weeks ago, and I was right!  I don’t have an allergy to latex condoms.  *happy dance, happy dance*  In fact they felt much better than the poly condoms and work just fine with the KY Liquibeads.  No pussy-pinching for me.  No cock-burn for Wes. 

Yay!

I was so thrilled I tweeted about it the rest of the night on Twitter and Facebook.  You know I did.  *kinky grin*

Since I haven’t been able to blog much about my sex life the last few months you might not know Wes and I have been taking my fav sex books to bed with us.  Let’s just say I’ve been in the mood to experiment and try a bunch of new sex positions.  In fact we’re doing so much of this on our sex dates you could almost shoot a porn video of us.  Seriously.  Wes gives me a few fab Os in positions he knows ring my bell.  Then we hit the books and go from one sex position to the next, asking,” How does that feel?”  If it doesn’t feel good to both of us we move on to the next position.

Those of you who’ve been reading this blog for a few years know my fav BJ book is Tickle His Pickle: Your Hands-on Guide to Penis Pleasing by Dr. Sadie Allison.  Well, she’s got another fab book called Ride ‘Em Cowgirl: Sex Position Secrets for Better Bucking. 

GAWD, dontcha love her titles?  The woman just cracks me up!

So this is the book I tossed on the bed before our sex date on Sunday.  OMG, I looked so cute when I walked into the bedroom, too.  I had on a fav pair of zebra-striped panties trimmed with red & black lace with satin ribbons.  I do adore my animal-print lingerie. *slutty grin*

Of course, Wes made quick work of stripping them off of me.  Yumm!

“I love your nipples,” he murmurs, sucking and pinching them into tight beads.  Then he gives me so many breast Os my bottom lip goes numb and starts to tingle.

“You do?”  Okay, he’s never said that before.  Not in the 32 years I’ve been fucking the man.

“Sure,” he replies, driving me crazy with his fingers.  “I’ve always loved your nipples.”

“You mean you’re a breast man, and you love all nipples.”  Hey, I need some qualifying here.

“No,” he corrects, licking my nipples thoroughly.  “I love your tiny little nipples.”

Okay, score major points for the Uber Alpha!  Then he grabs my face and kisses me passionately.  YOWZA!  He never does that. 

So what’s a slut to do?  I jump him cause I always hold back with him.  Wes prefers sweet kisses rather than the rabid-animal-eating-at-your-face kinda kisses I love.  After a few minutes he pulls me off of him.  His eyes are almost black with lust, and he’s stroking his dick. 

“We need to get that condom on me now,” he growls.  He knew I wanted to play for a long time, so he not only took a Viagra but also three herbal cock boosters (Steel-Libido) an hour before our date.

Hey, you don’t have to tell me twice.  I pluck a condom from the pile I brought with me, roll it over his steely tool, jump on the bed, and spread.  “Fuck me, baby,” I purr, flashing my thoroughly lubed pussy at him.  

Wow, he’s on me in a flash and so excited he enters me with one long thrust.  Whoosh!  Then we’re off to the races. 

After I have three screaming Os, I ask, “Hey, wanna try something new?” 

“I dunno,” he replies, rolling away from me, stroking his dick to keep it hard while I grab the book. 

Lately, we’ve been trying multiple variations on the classic cowgirl position.  Shoving two pillows up against the headboard, I say, “Sit up here with your back against the wall and let’s try the Ultimate Takedown position.”

Wes sits against the pillows and the headboard.  I crawl on top of him and impale myself on his dick, bringing my knees up, while keeping my feet flat on the bed beside his chest.  I lean over him and grab the headboard, pumping slowly. 

“How does that feel?” he asks.

“Meh,” I reply.  “Better if you push up into me like….squeeeee!…THAT!”  Okay, that felt good.  But I can’t keep it up.  Even though I jog two miles a day now my thighs don’t last long in this cramped position.

“You need to work out more,” Wes teases, sitting on his ass, winking at me while I do all the work.

“Yeah, right,” I snort, moving my legs down.  “You wish you worked out as much as I do every day.”

Wes laughs.  “No, I don’t.  What’s next, darlin’?”

Then we try the Three Legged Fox, but his knee starts to hurt.  So I go through the book trying all the positions I bunny-eared for this sex date.   Some felt fab, but we’re searching for another 5-star position to add to our regular sex life, and none of them worked that well for us.  Plus, Wes has a bad back and knee, which means some positions we can’t do, and others we have to be careful with. 

Finally, I say, “I wanna try one more.  How about this?”  I make him sit up again in the Ultimate Takedown position.  Then I impale myself on his hard tool and lean all the way back, bracing my hands behind me between his knees.  Bowing my back like a pretzel, I place my feet under his arms.  “This is called The Rock.”

I start pumping, like I’m doing reverse push-ups, which is surprisingly easy in this gymnastic position.  Who knew?

“How does it feel?” he asks, looking doubtful.

“Okay,” I reply.  “Probably better if you push up with your hips and meet my thrusts like….squeeeee…..THAT!!!”

OMG!  I think I just saw stars.  Damn, that felt good.  In fact I had a G-spot O so fast I lost my rhythm.  Yeah, this is the one we’re gonna thoroughly test on our next sex date.  No doubt about it.  It has all the markings of a 5-star position.

After I have a few more Os, Wes finishes and we collapse on the bed.  I’m purring, totally satiated for the moment, and he’s breathing hard.  But he smiling, so I can tell he had a good time, and he’s pleased he survived another one of my gymnastic sex dates.

“I can’t believe my birthday is Sunday,” he muses after a while, running his hand through his long blonde hair, which is damp with perspiration. 

“Hard to believe you’re gonna be 58,” I tease.  “That’s two years away from 60!”

He sighs.  “60 is gonna be freaky for sure.”

“At least you’ll still have a hard dick,” I purr.  “But old-man dick sure is expensive with testosterone shots and Viagra and Steel-Libido and…. ..squeeeee!”

Suddenly, Wes flips me over, and his lips latch onto my nipples again.  “I’ll show you who’s an old man,” he threatens, thoroughly worshiping my insatiable breasts.

What can I say?  I just love it when a plan comes together…  *sneaky grin*

But now that everything is rolling along in a positive direction again, not only can I get back to my regular novel-writing schedule but I can also resume blogging about my fav subject.  SEX!

However I realized I couldn’t start blogging about my sex life with Wes without first telling you how and why it’s changed.   And it has.  In a rather shocking way, actually.  So that’s what this post is about.

It seems everything I went through this year changed me.  Really, it did.  I’m no longer the easy-going slut I used to be.  All the career and personal shit I endured this year from the Alpha men in my life changed my personality. 

For one thing, I have a temper.  I never had a temper before.  But now I do, and it erupts suddenly.  Yeah, I’m still getting used to that.  “Weird” doesn’t begin to describe how it feels.  And that has affected the way I talk.  OMG, my mouth is ten times trashier now!  Especially when this new temper of mine flares up.  Damn, it’s vicious.  Because of that and the fact I get pissed off so easily and I go claws out at a moment’s notice, my relationship and my sex life have changed.

Basically, I’m scaring the shit outta Wes, and it’s making him behave amazingly well.  Who knew?  That means the man is no longer in the doghouse like he was the first 5 months of this year.  He’s too afraid to fuck up.  He knows I could attack at any moment.  And I gotta say the look on his face is priceless when I do.

Okay, I’m loving that part.  lol 

As you can imagine, this has affected our sex life as well.  He was always a great fuck.  But now he’s more careful of me emotionally than he ever was.  He goes out of his way to be nice to me.  Consequently, my sex life is awesome.  Wes and I are fucking like bunnies on crack and having a blast.  I guess you could say he treats me with kid gloves now cause he thinks I’ve gone a little psycho.  And I have.  For a while I thought this personality change of mine was temporary.  But much to his dismay (and horror) it seems to be permanent. 

It’s just that I’ve been pushed too far this year.  I was a really nice person.  But for some reason the Alpha men in my life didn’t appreciate that.  They thought they could run all over me.  Not!  So they pushed and pushed and pushed until I finally went off the deep end.  It changed me, and to tell you the truth I’m still getting used to it myself.

To do a better job of explaining this, I was asked by Book Faery last month to write a guest post for her August blogging event about Alpha heroes in novels.  I told her mine would be an anti-Alpha post (because I detest the fuckers these days), and she said she was cool with that.  Her event runs through this entire month, and you can read more about it here: http://book-faery.blogspot.com/2010/07/introducing-battle-of-sexies.html

But don’t worry.  I’m still a sweet Beta.  However, if you’re an Alpha man, beware.  All bets are off where you’re concerned.  And that sweet chick you used to know?  Hey, she doesn’t live here anymore….

*******

 Alpha Men?  Don’t Get Me Started!

by Laura Stamps

I have no idea if every guest post in this blog event is gonna be glorifying Alpha heroes in novels.  If so, just consider this your anti-Alpha post (lol).  Seriously, I told Tori when she invited me that I despise Alpha men these days.  No way I can write anything flattering about them.  But she said that was cool, so here I am. 

Okay, if you’ve read any of my novels you know NONE of my yummy hunky heroes are Alphas.  Why?  Because there are too many freakin’ arrogant clueless Alpha men in my real life, that’s why. 

Or there used to be. 

f you read my blog or know me from Twitter, Facebook, or Goodreads, you know there are lots of things about Alpha men that piss me off these days.  But the thing that irritates me the most is that they’re such arrogant bastards.   

Let me back up for a minute.  I learned at a very early age the only person who can make me happy is ME.  To do this I had to become “proactive” rather than “reactive.” 

“Proactive” means I do my own thing regardless of the insanity happening around me, regardless of what anyone thinks.  My happiness comes from within, and I know it cannot be shaken unless I allow it. 

“Reactive” means your happiness is dependent upon external things, on what’s happening around you.  It’s a “victim” mentality.  Being a victim is NOT my thing.  Been there, done that as a defenseless kid from an abusive family.  Ain’t going back! 

When you’re proactive, you’re moving forward.  It’s an “offensive” position.  When you’re reactive, you’re retreating.  It’s a “defensive” position, meaning you allow yourself to be backed into a corner where you’re constantly having to defend yourself.  Or prove yourself.  Over and over and over again. 

What a snooze! 

Arrogant Alpha men have a talent for putting women in a defensive position simply because they always think they’re right, which means everyone else is wrong.  If you disagree with an Alpha man you’re ALWAYS having to defend your opinion.  Of course, after a while you realize it doesn’t matter because the Alpha thinks he’s right, and he ain’t budging.   

Being proactive is empowering because you keep your power.  Being reactive makes you powerless, because you’ve given your power away to the petty tyrants in your life. 

Hey, forget THAT! 

Bottom line: I’m a Beta, and if my life is full of fighting and arguing then I’m not having fun.  If I’m not having fun, then my life isn’t working.  Time to make some changes and get the fun back, ya know? 

Unfortunately, Beta women attract Alpha men like bees to honey.  It’s like a disease.  That means my entire life I’ve been surrounded by Alpha men.  Thus, the reason they do NOT make an appearance in my novels.  Why?  Because I know these guys too well.  Every time a novel with an Alpha hero ends with him suddenly gaining new brain cells and realizing what an ass he’s been to the sweet Beta heroine I wanna turn that novel into a wallbanger.  Of course she thinks he’s now reformed for life, and they’ll live happily ever after.   

Hardly. 

The reality is most Alphas continue with this arrogant ego shit for the rest of their lives.  In my case, after 35 years, I’d had enough.  I finally got to the point where I was tired of these bastards putting me in the position of having to defend my opinions, the naughty way I talk, the way I write my novels, the way I write my blog posts, my outlook on life, you name it. 

Know what I say to that?  FUCK IT! 

I’m a proactive slut.  I don’t have to defend my work or my opinions or my outlook on life to anyone.  If they can’t accept me as I am then they can just move along.  I’m gonna do what I’m gonna do regardless of whether the Alpha men in my life “approve” or not. 

So I cleaned house.  Yes, I did.  I dumped the Alpha publisher, the Alpha agent, and all the Alpha men in my biz life.  Couldn’t dump my Alpha husband, Wes, so I threw him in the doghouse.  Again and again and again.   

Then my Alpha girlfriends offered to give me “Bitch Lessons.”  Alrightyyyy!  They kept telling me I’m too nice, too generous, too sweet, my heart is too big, and I take too much shit off these Alpha assholes.  And this time I agreed. 

Now I’m a “Bitch-in-Training.”   

All I can say is: Damn, this bitch stuff is hard!  But my Alpha girlfriends are being patient with me.  Much to their delight I have learned a few skills.  I get pissed off at the drop of a hat now.  And I’ve got the claws-out thing down pretty good, too. 

In fact, I’m scaring the shit outta Wes these days.  Consequently, the man is nicer to me than he’s been in the 32 years I’ve been fucking him.   

Who knew?   

I’ve also been retraining myself NOT to get an instant panty-melt when an Alpha man crosses my path.  Damn, that’s hard, too.  But I’m making progress.  Now when one comes near me (it’s that bees-to-honey thing again) I say, “Down, Tiger!” to my pussy and walk away. 

I do. 

Yeah, I’m rather proud of myself these days.  This sweet slutty Beta has not only pulled off a miracle fixing the freakin’ mess my ex-agent (Alpha asshole) made of my career, but I’ve also kicked out every Alpha man in my biz and professional life.   

Well, except Wes.  But he’s still bending over backwards to be nice to me.  And the minute he fucks up I scream bloody murder and go claws out. 

Turns out these are really handy skills.  Who knew?  lmao!

Okay, I have a treat for you today.  This is an interview that ran last week on the “Sizzling Hot Books” blog.  When I posted about it on Goodreads, Facebook, and Twitter, several of my readers said they loved it because it gives a more in-depth view of my writing process and my books than my other interviews.

Cool!

So I thought I’d run it on this blog for you today.  Thanks, Marissa for asking me such fab questions!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Laura Stamps Interview & Giveaway

Marissa’s Sizzling Hot Books (July 2010)

I am excited to welcome Laura Stamps here today.  “The Rune Witch Series” is a great series!  Laura, thank you for taking the time to stop by Sizzling Hot Books. I am delighted to have you here.

1.) Would you mind telling the readers a little about yourself and the books you write?

I’m a paranormal erotica novelist, and my blog is wickedly naughty (as you can imagine *lol*).  I’ve been a fulltime author for 23 years, and my work has been published in over a thousand magazines, literary journals, and anthologies worldwide. The recipient of a “Pulitzer Prize“ nomination and seven “Pushcart Award” nominations, I’m the author of more than forty-five books. I’m also a Wiccan Faery Witch, empath, and psychic, so I enjoy writing novels about contemporary Pagans living in the Deep South. Because it’s important to me to portray Pagans realistically, my novels are full of real spells, chants, and rituals. And the erotic ones have lots of romance and HOT sex. Why? Because I’m totally oversexed and LOVE it!  And I’m a kinky slut.  Okay, that just about sums it up.  *sex-obsessed grin* 

2.) Why erotica? Did you always know that was the genre you wanted to write?

As for the erotica question, I think I just answered that.  I inherited my dad’s raging hot libido, so sex is my life and my career.  No, I have not always written genre fiction.  I started out in the literary market, writing and publishing literary fiction and poetry for more than a decade before I made the switch.  In fact when some of the people I used to know from the literary market find me on Facebook now they’re HORRIFIED at my change in career.  What can I say?  When I made the switch to genre fiction many years ago I kinda disappeared from the literary market.  I knew it would be a shock for them, and I didn’t wanna cause too many literary heart attacks, ya know?  lmao! 

3.) What scene did you have the most fun writing for The Rune Witch Series?

It would have to be the ocean sex scene in Bewitched at the Beach.  Why?  Because I have a rep for only writing sex scenes I’ve experienced in real life.  If I haven’t done it, it’s not gonna show up in one of my novels.  So, yes, Wes (my long-suffering husband) and I had sex in the ocean when I was in college, and we were dating.  It was AWESOME!!!  Have I mentioned I’m also a kinky exhibitionist?  Well, I am.  Anyway, there were people not more than 20 yards from us in the water at the same time.  But no one knew what we were doing cause the waves are always rocking you when you’re in water waist-deep.  The beach was packed with tourists, too.  GAWD, I loved it!  Okay, I’m always getting my conservative husband into kinky sex situations much to his dismay.  But that just makes it more fun, right?  *falls over laughing*

4.) I believe that ‘The Rune Witch Series’ is a spin off of another series you wrote, ‘The Witchery Series’, can you tell us about that?

The Rune Witch Series is a spin-off in a very loose way.  I say that because all my series (4) involve the same cast of characters.  It’s just in some series or novels they are the main characters, and in others they are secondary characters.  The Witchery Series is the only series of mine that is not completely erotica.  The first novel (The Witches of Dixie) is very empowering for women with no sex or romance.  The second one (What Witches Want) is a sweet romance with tasteful sex.  The third one (Call of the Witches) is a sweet romance with erotic sex.  This series basically builds the neighborhood in Columbia where most of my series and novels take place, and it introduces you to the main characters.  But all my series can be read out of order, and each novel in The Witchery Series can be read as a stand-alone with its own HEA.  All the novellas have a HEA too, but are more fun if you read them in order and the entire trilogy, like The Rune Witch Series, for example.

5.) Could you tell us a little about ‘The Manigault Vampires’ series? What inspired you to write about vampires?

The Manigault Vampires series is a serialized, romantic erotica series in ebook. In this series, you’ll meet Drayton Manigault, the owner of Manigault Technologies and one of the richest businessmen in Columbia, South Carolina. Dray also happens to be one of the oldest vampires in the city. All of the Witches in The Witchery Series novels return in this series for lots of erotic, vampy fun with Dray, Val (Dray’s older brother), and Atwell Gibbs (their cousin). Did I mention how gorgeous these vamps are? Oh, yeah, they’re smokin’ HOT in and out of the bedroom. Trust me! 

As for inspiration, I had been wanting to write a vamp series for years but didn’t know how I would fit it into my Witchy world.  Then Wynn (from The Rune Witch Series) mentions one day he works for Drayton Manigault, and Dray is a vamp.  EUREKA!!  There was my connection, and the entire vamp series took off from there.  In fact it starts at a Samhain party at Wynn’s and Noelle’s house. 

6.) I heard there is another spin off series from ‘The Witchery Series’, called ‘The Faery Witch Series‘ could you tell us a little about that and when to expect it to be out?

This is a series I plan to write after I finish the next vamp novel.  All my series follow the same timeline.  Sometimes they happen at the same time.  Sometimes they move in a straight line.  For example, Call of the Witches: Book Three of the Witchery Series leads right into A Vampire’s Kiss: Book One of the Manigault Vampires.  And The Rune Witch Series happens at the same time as Call of the Witches.  So my readers never feel lost.  As for The Faery Witch Series, there is a missing 6-week period at the end of What Witches Want (the third week of June) and the beginning of Call of the Witches (the first week of August) that I wanna explore.  It’s when Donnie’s and Savannah’s (from What Witches Want) love affair heats up smokin’ hot, and I wanna know what happens during those 6 weeks.  Like I said, that will be The Faery Witch Series, an erotica novella trilogy like The Rune Witch Series. 

7.) Your books are full of hot steamy sex scenes do you ever have trouble writing them? Do you reward yourself once you write the sex scene or do you just keep writing?

Thanks!  I’m glad you like them.  No, I never have trouble writing hot sex scenes because sex is my life, and it’s what I love, and I have a lot of sex in real life.  However I will say writing a good sex scene is not easy.  I think most people find this out when they try to write one.  It’s a delicate mix of action, thoughts, and dialogue.  I like a fast hot pace, so those three elements are written to give the reader an instant panty-melt in my sex scenes.  I’m a ruthless editor, and all my chapters go through at least 15-20 edits before I’m finished with them.  The editing on a sex scene is even more meticulous, and they go through at least 30 edits before I feel every word is right in them. 

Actually, I never thought about rewarding myself after writing a sex scene.  Cool idea!  I usually just go on to the next chapter.  I’ve been doing this for so long I never have writer’s block, and I write every day of the year.  Thanks for the reward idea, gf.  I’m always looking for another excuse to indulge in my addiction to shopping for trashy lingerie.  Alrightyyyy!  lol 

8.) Where do you get the ideas for your books? Are you inspired or influenced by anything?

Hmm.  Let me think about that.  I’m much more interested in how relationships grow during the course of a novel than suspense or chasing bad guys.  So my novels are all character-driven.  I allow them to give me the idea for a series or novel.  The thing about writing character-driven novels and series is they tend to run away with them sometimes.  I think Sara and Dray in A Vampire’s Kiss did the best job of that. 

Let me explain.  I usually follow a brief outline for the next 4-5 chapters.  And I don’t start writing a novel until I know the h/h, the climax, and how it’s going to end.  Then I let the characters lead me through each chapter.  So I always have an idea how I want the next 4-5 chapters to go.  That’s my outline.  However Dray and Sara refused to follow my outline.  Finally, after 20 chapters I gave up and let them lead.  They ended up making that novel longer than usual.  And they did a fab job with it.  It truly is one of my best so far.   

9.) When did you know that you wanted to be a writer? Were your family and friends supportive?

I have a mild form of dyslexia, so I never considered being a writer, even though I was always an avid reader.  In high school and college my professors told me I had writing talent, but spelling and letters moving around made that kinda hard so I never pursued it.  However I was also blessed with artistic talent and won all the top art awards in school.  I went on to major in art in college and became a professional artist.  My paintings were sold in galleries across the country, and my art prints are still sold worldwide by my art print publisher in California (Haddad’s Fine Arts).  You can find them on the web and Amazon.  My paintings are also on the covers of the paperback version of The Witchery Series published by Trytium Pubishing.  

But when I was thirty I gave up the struggle and became a writer.  I was never 100% satisfied being an artist, and writing satisfied me completely.  So I taught myself how to write, which I call painting with words, and I never looked back.  My friends have always been supportive.  I come from an abusive family so there was no support there.  However, my dad did buy my first typewriter in college so I could type my term papers, and I will always be grateful for that.  It was the one I typed my first published books, stories, and poems on.  Now my fans, husband, the Goddess, and the Fey are my greatest supporters.  I did mention I’m a Witch, right? 

10.) Who inspired you the most to follow your dream of being a writer?

Don’t laugh, okay?  Angela Lansbury on Murder She Wrote.  That show was on when I made my career change.  I kept thinking how tired I was of carrying big framed paintings and big portfolios to galleries and art fairs.  And I thought it would be much more fun to sit at a typewriter all day.  Plus, manuscripts are not as heavy or awkward to carry as big paintings.  Then I discovered Writer’s Digest magazine, wrote my first poem, and that was it.  I was completely satisfied creatively for the first time in my life.  So I changed careers that day.  Being that I have always done what I wanted to do with no one cheering me on (like family), I pursued my dream of being a writer all by myself and never looked back.  I always knew I would succeed one way or another.  That was never a question cause I always do what I wanna do and keep doing it until I find a way to make to work.  My writing career has been no different. 

11.) What is the writing process like for you? Do you have a particular writing process or any writing rituals?

I’ve said before I’m character-driven.  That means to write the first draft of a chapter I simply set my characters in the scene and let them move around and do their thing.  Then I follow them and write everything down.  That’s basically it.  Of course they continue to talk to me and tweak and add and cut up chapters and paragraphs and do all kinds of stuff during the editing process.  You could say it’s definitely a team effort.     

12.) I believe I read somewhere that the first draft of your novels are done long hand, and then you type them is that true? Why do you do it that way?

Because I started out in the literary market as a poet, I write all my first drafts longhand in a spiral notebook.  Rarely do poets compose on computer.  Instead they carry around index cards and note paper and write and edit that way.  So I just got used to it, and now when I want to create fiction, I do it longhand.  I fill one spiral notebook after another until I’m finished with a novel.  A Vampire’s Kiss is 40 chapters long, and I finished the first handwritten draft of it in 9 weeks in several spiral notebooks.  Then I go back and type it on computer and edit ruthlessly until the manuscript is finished and ready to send to one of my publishers.  For a novel, this editing takes 5 – 8 months.  The cool thing about writing first drafts longhand is several universities around the country collect my archives, and they LOVE this kinda stuff. 

13.) In your free time what can you be found doing?

I have two hobbies (if you don’t count sex *lusty grin*).  I am an avid gardener, and I’ve been in feral cat rescue for 30+ years.  That’s why some of my Witches (like Sara, Donnie, and Blaine) are Green Witches and have lots of gardening and herbal experience.  And that’s why there are always cats in my novels. 

I live next to a state forest and at the moment my current feral cat colony is from there.  When I found it 4 years ago it grew to 21 cats and kittens before I could get them all socialized, fixed, and find homes for them.  Now there are 3 left, and they live on my back porch and think of themselves as my outdoor kitties, which they are.  Plus, I have 6 indoor cats who are all ferals and strays. 

I should add I am a vegetarian and eat mostly organic.  That’s why my Pagan characters are also vegetarian, and you’ll find yummy vegetarian recipes in my novels and novellas.  My fans say reading my books makes them hungry for veggies and veggie recipes.  Yeah, vegetarians eat realllllly good, and I love showing my readers just how good we eat.  lol

14.) If you could be any paranormal creature what would you be and why?

A vampire.  Why?  Because a vamp’s bite gives you an instant O.  They are verrrry sexual creatures.  Plus, my vamps are Daywalker vamps, meaning they can walk in daylight.  What’s not to like, right?  The funny thing is when Wes found out I was writing a vamp series he started biting my neck during sex, acting like a vampire.  Yummmy!  Of course when we watched the Underworld movies he started doing the Lycan thing and growling when he bit me.  Yummy!  But I digress….  *sex-obsessed grin*

15.) What are you currently working on? Anything you can share regarding your current Work in Progress?

Currently, I am working on the final edits of A Vampire’s Kiss so I can release the last installments of that fab vamp serial novel.  Then I will write The Faery Witch Series.  Should take about 6 months.  I have that one in note form at the moment and look forward to getting that hot series in the hands of my fans. 

Then I’ll write the second novel in The Manigault Vampire series called A Vampire’s Embrace.  I already have the first chapter of that one in first draft.  That one will also have some swinging in it.  My parents were swingers, so it’s a lifestyle I am familiar with.  Plus, I would LOVE to swing myself (Pleeeeeeease, Wes! *lol*).  The cool thing about my vamp series is it’s not a trilogy like The Witchery Series, The Rune Witch Series, and The Faery Witch Series.  I intend for it to go on for as long as it likes. 

The first three books in The Memoir Series will be coming out in the next week or so.  That series is made up of posts from my X-rated blog.  So The Memoir Series and The Manigault Vampires series are not trilogies and will both go on for as long as they like.  And that’s what I will be spending my time writing from now on.  Unless my characters tell me they want another series.  Then all my plans are shot to hell.  *falls over laughing*

Sounds just like me, doesn’t it?  Of course!  *wicked grin* 

Speaking of hot sex, I know I haven’t had much of that on this blog for the last month or so.  Sorry.  Wes and I are still fucking like bunnies on crack, and he’s behaving very nicely these days.  But I’ve been so slammed with book biz stuff I haven’t had the time to write about it.

Bewitched at the Beach: Book Two of the Rune Witch Series

Laura Stamps ©

CHAPTER ONE

“Hey.”  Tuesday afternoon, the third week of August, and Noelle holds her cell phone in one hand while her other hand rests on her slim hip.  Standing at the glass door of the import store she manages, she watches the late summer sun bake the store’s asphalt parking lot, sending shimmering waves of heat snaking across its inky surface.  “What’s up?”

A sexy growl rumbles through Wynn’s throat.  “My dick is always up for you, darlin’,” he teases.

Noelle snorts.  “Tell me something I don’t know, cat-man.”  She steps back as three cars pull into the parking lot, and several women emerge, walk through the door, and into the store.  Turning around, Noelle signals to one of her employees, pointing toward the new customers.  “Seriously, we’re starting to get busy here.  Stop wasting my time and tell me why you’re calling.”

Wynn chuckles.  “Patience, darlin’.  You’ll like this.”

“I better,” she warns. 

“Are you working this weekend?”

“Just Saturday,” she replies.  “I’m opening, and you know how cranky that makes me.”  She shakes her head and groans.  “I’ll never be one of those perky morning people.”

Wynn chuckles.  “Tell me something I don’t know, sugar.”

“Quit fooling around, cat-man!  I’m not having a good day.  Our air is on the fritz again, and I’ve got two men on the roof right now trying to fix it.  I’m hot, and, I swear, if they tell me one more time that unit is terminal, I’ll…..”  Noelle impatiently taps the stiletto heel of her boot on the tile floor.  “Argh!”

“Relax, sugar.  What would you say about spending three nights at Hilton Head?  We’d leave on Friday and come back Monday afternoon.”

“I’d say you’re dreaming.”  Noelle runs her hand through onyx, gel-spiked hair, blotting the back of her moist neck with her collar.

“Maybe not, darlin’.”

“Then spill.”

“Dray went to a supplier party a few weeks ago.  They had door prizes, and he won a trip to Hilton Head this weekend.  The beach isn’t his thing, so he offered it to me.  I wanted to run it by you first before I told him I’d take it.”

“Cool!”  She turns away from a woman looking at a display of baskets imported from Africa.   “But your boss is a daywalker, right?” she whispers into the phone.  “Why is he giving up such a great trip?”

“Sugar, daywalker vamps can walk in the sun,” Wynn explains.  “They just can’t bake in it.”

“Gotcha.”  Noelle snickers.  “Dray in swim trunks lying on the beach, soaking up rays.  Yeah, that’ll never happen.”

“Exactly,” Wynn replies.  “So do you wanna go?”

“Absolutely.”  Noelle hurries to the counter and pulls out the weekly schedule from the shelf beneath the cash register.  “Tell Dray we’ll take it.  I can find someone to cover for me on Saturday.  My assistant manager owes me a favor anyway.”  She lays the schedule on the counter.  “Shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Excellent.”  Wynn growls again, his voice low, and sexy.  “Maybe after dinner tonight you could model that bikini you bought last summer at Dillards.  You know, the skimpy black one.”

Noelle snickers.  “Down, boy.”

*     *     *     *     *

The sun slowly sinks in the sky when they approach the beach house on Friday evening.  Decorative clumps of sea oats are scattered throughout the front yard and sway lazily in a salty breeze. 

“Sweet,” Noelle muses, yawning and stretching after the long drive.  She throws her arms up over her head and wiggles in her seat, grateful Wynn could leave work early that afternoon and beat the traffic coming home to pick her up.  Thirty minutes later they tossed their luggage in the car and hit the road for the three-hour drive to the coast.

Even though she loves to tease Wynn about his fancy sports car, Noelle appreciates how it pampers her body.  Especially on a road trip.  Soft leather seats cushion her back, while an expensive sound system floods the car with classic rock.  Tinted windows filter the scorching South Carolina sun. 

As Wynn turns into the driveway, Noelle glances out the window at the expensive beach houses lining the street.  All are painted in pastel colors, sprawling across spacious lots, each landscaped to provide plenty of privacy.  Several luxury hotels rise from the beach next to the neighborhood.

After he parks the car, Wynn hops out and grabs his travel bag and the large black backpack Noelle uses for short trips.  Slinging the straps of both over his shoulder, he rummages through his pocket for the key Dray gave him before he left the office.

“What do you think?” Wynn asks, closing Noelle’s door when she steps out.

“Nice, ” she replies, turning around to weave her fingers through his as they walk toward the house.  “Isn’t it?”

“Very.”  Wynn bends over to brush his lips across her cheek before slipping the key in the front door.

A cool blast of air conditioning bathes Noelle’s face.  Wynn pushes the door open and stands back, allowing her to walk through the entryway into an airy living room.  Her stiletto heels click loudly across spotless hardwood floors.

“Awesome,” she says, flipping the latch on the sliding glass door and stepping out onto a wide deck wrapping around the back of the house.

Wynn drops their luggage on the sofa and follows her outside.  Standing behind Noelle, he draws her back against his chest, slipping his hands beneath the black tank top she threw on before she left Columbia.  He playfully tugs on the silver ring piercing her navel before his fingers glide up to cup her breasts.  Dragging his thumbs across her nipples, he chuckles when they instantly harden into tight buds. 

“No bra today, sugar?”  Wynn dips his head, nuzzling her neck.

Noelle purrs and leans against him.  “Like you just noticed, cat-man.”  She places her hands over his and grinds her hip into his growing erection.

He growls and sucks her earlobe into his mouth, nipping it gently.

“Ouch!” Noelle yelps, elbowing the unmoving wall of his chest.  “That hurt.”

Wynn ignores her outburst, moving her toward a hot tub recessed into the deck.  He kisses her collarbone.  “Want to go skinny dipping, darlin’?”

“Sounds good to me.”  Noelle snickers, noticing the row of tall bushes on each side of the property that form natural privacy walls.  “Looks like we won’t be freaking out the neighbors.”

Wynn laughs.  “Since when do you care?” 

“Good point.”

He turns her around in his arms and claims her mouth. 

Noelle gasps as his tongue flicks across her bottom lip and then plunges into her mouth, devouring her.  His hands massage her breasts, rolling her nipples between his fingers and thumbs.

She moans and melts into him, hungrily returning his kiss, her hand tangled in his long dark hair.  Slipping her fingers between their bodies, she gives his hard cock a squeeze, and he inhales sharply.

“Dear Goddess,” she breathes, when he releases her mouth.  “You’re frisky tonight.”  She fans her face and pulls out of his embrace.  “Let me find the bathroom in this place, and I’ll be back.”

She walks over to the edge of the hot tub, eying it suspiciously.  “Is this thing warm?”

Wynn squats down and dips his hand into the water.  “I guess whoever cleans this place got it ready for us.”  He looks up at her.  “Try it and see.”

She bends over and sticks a finger in.  “Mmm, I like that,” she purrs, waggling her eyebrows suggestively.

“Flirt with me, sugar, and I’ll take you right here on the deck,” he warns, his dark eyes shining.

“Promise?” Noelle teases.  She squeals and dodges his hands, running through the open sliding glass door and into the house, laughing.  “You’re so easy, cat-man!”

She swipes her backpack off the sofa and dashes down the hall in search of the bedroom.  Stopping at the first door on her right, she finds an office with a computer, printer, and fax machine. 

“Not what I’m looking for,” she mumbles, turning back into the hall and walking through the door on her left.

“Bingo.”  Noelle tosses her backpack on the king-size bed and wanders through an arched doorway into a master bathroom larger than her kitchen in Columbia.  After she freshens up, she strips off her clothes and pads back through the house.

When Noelle opens the sliding glass door, she sees Wynn lounging in the hot tub.  Two bottles of water sit beside him on the deck next to a plate piled high with nut butter sandwiches and apple slices.

His eyes are closed, and he’s taken the band out of his thick black hair, which spills in glossy waves over his shoulders and into the warm water.  His head rests against the back of the tub. 

When Noelle steps through the door his eyes open, and he sits up.  Warm water cascades down his lean chest and the sinewy muscles of his arms.  Reaching for one of the bottles, he moves with leonine grace.  Just like the cat he becomes when he shifts.

Noelle sighs as she watches him, her eyes caressing his gorgeous body, wandering down from his high cheekbones to his broad shoulders.  Wynn’s chest is covered with a dark dusting of soft hair, and her fingers itch to travel through it.  She licks her lips and closes the door, amazed how the sight of him still spikes her libido even after five years together.

“Like what you see, darlin’?” Wynn teases, taking a sip of water and winking at her.

“You wish, cat-man,” she snorts, stepping carefully into the hot tub.

He chuckles and holds out his hand to steady her.

“What’s that?” she asks, pointing toward the plate of food.  “You know I only do organic.  I’ll bet there’s nothing organic in that entire kitchen.”

Wynn pulls her onto his lap, hooking her knees around his hips. 

Facing him, Noelle feels his meaty erection pressing against her stomach, and her sex clenches with anticipation.

“That’s a bet you’d lose, sugar.”

“No way,” she protests, opening her mouth as he feeds her a piece of fruit.

“I packed some of your favorite snacks before we left.”  He dips his head to lick a bead of water from her pert nipple.  “Trust me, darlin’.  You’re gonna need your strength this weekend.”

“Aren’t you the Boy Scout?” she murmurs, choking down a moan with a bite of apple.

Wynn grins up at her, his tongue circling her nipple, while his hand slides between her thighs.  “Always prepared.”  He cups her mound and presses his thumb against her clit.  “That’s my motto, sugar.”

“Wait!” Noelle exclaims, grabbing his hand and stilling it before he can plunge two fingers into her sex.  “I need some water to wash down this apple.”  She lifts his arm and waves it toward the water bottle.  “You’re driving me crazy, cat-man.”

Wynn laughs and hands the bottle to her.  After she takes a long gulp, she gives it back to him. 

Placing the water bottle on the deck, he grabs her hips, his long fingers kneading her ass.  “Ready now?” he asks, giving her a lusty grin.  “I can’t wait much longer, sugar.”

Noelle snickers, weaving her hands through his hair.  “Then don’t.”  She pulls him toward her, kissing him hungrily, her tongue invading his mouth to dance aggressively with his.

Wynn growls and shifts her hips on his lap.  While Noelle continues to ravage his mouth, he slides his hand down her flat stomach and between her thighs, stroking her clit.

A seagull cries overhead, floating down to the beach, while the sun sets on the fiery surface of the ocean.

Noelle clutches Wynn’s shoulders and leans back.  “Oh, that feels so good,” she moans. 

He plunges two fingers inside her, slowly pumping into her cunt, and she eagerly rides his hand.  Tiny waves ripple across the hot tub, reflecting the setting sun.

Her sex grips his fingers, and she can feel the first spasm of an orgasm coiling low in her belly.  Noelle whimpers and arches her back, thrusting her breasts out when intense pleasure explodes in her pussy.

Wynn chuckles.  “I love how responsive you are, darlin’.”  He pumps his fingers faster, while she grinds against his hand, riding the white-hot waves of her release.  Dipping his head, he suckles one nipple, nipping it gently.

Noelle screams when those little bites of pleasure-pain ignite a second orgasm, and her legs begin to shake.

“Hush, darlin’,” Wynn soothes, nuzzling her ear.  “You’ll scare the neighbors.”

“I can’t help it,” she breathes, laying her head on his shoulder, panting as the last tremors ripple through her.

“I know, sugar.”  Holding her against his chest with one hand, he pulls the other hand out, licks the remnants of her cream from his fingers, and reaches beside the plate of food for a foil packet.  After he rips it open with his teeth, Noelle takes the condom from him and rolls it over his engorged cock.

Caressing his erection with both hands, she nips his ear and whispers,  “Don’t let this go to your head, cat-man, but your dick is a work of art.”

Wynn laughs and slips down in the tub.  Lifting Noelle’s hips, he slides into her with one hard thrust.

“Dear Goddess, you’re tight,” he groans, rocking her slowly, pulling out almost all the way and then thrusting back into her.

Wanting to feel every delightful sensation as his thick shaft stretches her, Noelle brings her knees up, resting them against his chest, opening herself to take him as deeply as she can.  She closes her eyes and whimpers when he rolls over with her, rotating his hips to hit her G-spot.

“You’re like a drug, cat-man,” she breathes, clinging to him.  “I think I’m addicted to you.”

Moving Noelle beneath him, Wynn increases the speed of his strokes.  “That’s the nicest thing you’ve ever said to me, sugar,” he groans.

“Then I must be delirious,” she replies, biting her lip as a lightning flash of bliss snakes through her pussy, shaking her with a powerful climax.

He reaches down through the warm water and pinches her clit again, rolling the swollen bud between his fingers as he slams into her.

Noelle cries out when another orgasm crashes on top of the last one.  Her inner muscles grab his cock, rippling up and down its length, squeezing him with spasms of pleasure.

Wynn groans loudly, his release shooting through his groin, spurting warm seed into the condom.  He rolls over and drags Noelle on top of him.

When she can move again, she nuzzles his wet chest.  “I like this hot tub,” she murmurs, warm water caressing her satisfied body. “We should get one of these for our backyard.”

Wynn chuckles, running his hand through his hair, damp with water and perspiration.  He hugs Noelle to him, tenderly stroking her back.  “I doubt we’d get any work done, darlin’.” 

A few minutes later he slips out of her and pulls off the used condom, tossing it on the deck.  Grabbing another foil packet, he rips it open.

“True,” Noelle agrees and then snickers.  “No wonder Savannah and Donnie spend so much time in that custom-built bathtub of theirs.”

Wynn snorts.  “I’m amazed he can leave for work every day with that kind of temptation.”

“He must have a lot of willpower,” Noelle muses, stroking the silky skin of his quickly recovering cock.

“Then he’s a better man than I am, sugar,” Wynn replies, rolling on the condom and slipping inside Noelle again, rocking his hips in a slow rhythm.

“Mmm, that feels good.”  She kisses his neck and then nips his collarbone.  “I’ve always thought willpower was highly overrated.”

The Rune Witch Series

Enjoy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Loved The Rune Witch Series! Wynn was very sexy and definitely drool worthy! And Noelle was awesome in her quirky-ness. I couldn’t put my Kindle down!”  (Jennifer, Twitter)

“What a great little read.  Sex Magick is nice and short…and damn it was Hot as Hell!!  I love Wynn.  He is fantastic.  I cannot wait to read the next one in the series! I love it when you read something new and are left wanting more.  Laura Stamps is a great writer.  Everyone should give her a go!!  Plus, she does really know how to write a good love scene!!”  (Ang, Australia)

“Wynn is a great guy!  I love his devotion to Noelle, his sexiness, and his all around charm. He is funny and enduring. This is a “naughty” novella and in that aspect this book was HOT! It is definitely not for the faint of heart. Laura writes really good “naughty” scenes, and she does not disappoint in this book.  I liked the playfulness between Noelle and Wynn. They were very fun to read.  I did like the magic being interwoven into the moments between Noelle and Wynn, it was unique and fun to read! I would recommend Sex Magick to any “naughty” book reader.”  (Felicia, Texas)

“Sex Magick is Book One of the Rune Witch Series by Laura Stamps. The series centers around the relationship between sexy, 35 year old, sassy Rune witch Noelle and hunky, 38 year old eclectic Pagan Wynn, who were first introduced in LS’s Witchery Series. Wynn has long black hair, 6 feet of dark gorgeousness, quiet, easy going and comfortable in his own skin, works as a software developer…and oh yeah–he’s a (cat) shapeshifter.  Noelle is 5 feet of flirty feistiness, with short dark spiky hair, a classic rock lovin’, goth-looking vegetarian, who manages an import store–I’m imagining Pier One.  This story is very descriptive and often humorous (Wynn and Noelle have a great rapport)–I can just imagine Wynn and Noelle as if they’re sitting in my living room, and very steamy–a couple of scenes (shower sex) will get you all hot and bothered. Loved it! I enjoyed this little novella and look forward to reading more in the series and seeing just how creative Wynn will get to convince Noelle to marry him. Should be fun!  (Cheryl, PA)

“Laura, I love them!! Thanks so much for writing them..{grins}  And I also wanna go away with DH for a dirty weekend at the beach!!!  OMG, girl, you can write great S.E.X.. And, yowzah, that has already hooked me!!!..  I love love this series.  It is soo good.. I love it in Bewitched at the Beach when Wynn tries to convince Noelle to marry him as they go away on a little vacation.  This one is Super Hot, I mean a cold shower in some places are needed!!  Cant wait to read the next one, as it should be an awesome finish to the series!! Yes, yes, I love Wynn….OMG, don’t get me started!!  He is Smoking Hot!! Laura Stamps is an amazing writer, and she knows how write her S.E.X!!!  It was so good I had to start the last one!!”  (Ang, Australia)

“I just talked to a friend who loved A Vampire’s Kiss and she’s now reading The Rune Witch Series. She loves your writing. I have that series next to read. ” (Debbie, Ohio)

“Bewitched at the Beach is Book #2 in the Rune Witch trilogy, and it picks up where Book #1 leaves off (you have to read these in order to get the full effect). Noelle and Wynn have an opportunity to spend a long weekend at a luxury beach house at Hilton Head, S.C., courtesy of Wynn’s boss, Dray (A Vampire’s Kiss). Of course they jump at this opportunity for some R&R, and Wynn uses this alone time with Noelle to convince her to marry him.  I really enjoyed this short but very sexy read. It’s filled with humor (Noelle is good with the wise-cracks and teasing put-downs), some verrry hot sex (a hot tub scene, and some nearly exhibitionist sex in the ocean–Noelle and Wynn are very daring) and some vivid, atmospheric descriptions of the beach house and surrounding area that made me imagine that I was there (how I wish!). We learn a little bit about the reason behind Noelle’s reluctance to marry, we get to enjoy Wynn’s (I love this easy going, beta hero) relentless pursuit to get a “yes” out of Noelle, and it was hot! On a side note, let me call attention to the cover–this is one cover that perfectly depicts the H/h, right down to Noelle’s navel ring (can’t tell if that’s a dangling skull, though) and her black bikini–although where are Wynn’s loud and flowered swim trunks?!:) Great effort by LS–can’t wait to read the next one (The Harvest Moon) to see if a wedding is in this sexy couple’s future!”  (Cheryl, PA)

“After reading The Harvest Moon I am left with WOW! What an awesome ending to a fantastic series!!  You know what else I love about Wynn?  He knows what to do with his mouth and hands!!! *sigh*  I really can’t stop thinking about that soy milkshake and what he does with Noelle!!! {{grins}}} Love your work Laura   For every one who hasn’t read anything from Laura Stamps you should totally give her books a go!”  (Ang, Australia)

Yay!

So here it is.  Hope you have a fab holiday!  Make me proud and do something naughty. 

Alrightyyyy!!!

(Interview at Not-Really-Southern Vamp Chick blog, May 2010)

Laura Stamps Interview & Giveaway!

For Day 5, we are joined by Laura Stamps for a very fun interview! Though, if you are under 18, it is probably time to stop reading now.

Thank you so much for joining me in my Giveaway-a-day Countdown to My Birthday Bash! It’s lovely to have you!

Can you tell me a little about yourself?

Sure. I’m a shameless slut, exhibitionist (BTW, have you seen my lingerie pics at Facebook? *kinky grin*), and voyeur addicted to lust, trashy lingerie, sex, and men’s dangly parts. I’m like the living version of one of the heroines in an erotica novel. I don’t just write this sex stuff. I live it.

Oh, wait! You wanted my official “author” bio, didn’t you? Sorry! Okay, I’m an award-winning erotica and paranormal romance novelist, whose blog is wickedly naughty (gee, what a surprise!). My work has been published in over a thousand magazines, literary journals, and anthologies worldwide. The recipient of a Pulitzer Prize nomination and seven Pushcart Award nominations, I’m the author of more than forty-five books. A Wiccan Faery Witch, Empath, and Psychic, I enjoy writing novels about contemporary Pagans living in the Deep South. Because I portray Pagans realistically, my novels are full of real spells, chants, and rituals.  You’ll also find romance and HOT sex in my books. Why? Because I’m totally oversexed and LOVE it (gee, what a surprise!).

Who are my publishers? A more accurate question would be who are my publishers “at the moment”? The last year has been insane for me in that one of my publishers suddenly went out of biz in March 2009, I got a new agent in June 2009, I signed a contract with a new publisher in February 2010, parted ways with my new agent in March 2010, and started publishing again with Kittyfeather Press in March 2010. Helluva a year, huh? *lmao* But at this moment, on April 22, 2010, my novels are published by Kittyfeather Press and Trytium Publishing. See? It’s definitely a moment to moment thing for me. Really. lol

How long have you been writing?

I’ve been a fulltime, professional writer for 23 years.

Can you tell us a bit about The Witchery Series?

It’s a sexy paranormal romance novel series in paperback at the moment (remember, that’s the key phrase for me) but should be coming out in ebook in July. In this series you’ll meet five wonderful Witches: Savannah, Maylene, Mirabella, Noelle, and Ravena. There’s something for everyone in this trilogy. The novels range from empowering to romantic to erotic. You’ll also find real spells, chants, and rituals in each one. Big fun! I wrote this series because I wanted to show people what real Witches and Pagans are like, since we’ve gotten such bad press for the last 2000+ years. I also wanted to show people how incredibly sex Pagan men are. So I have yummy, hunky Witches, Pagans, two-natured Fey (yes, they do exist), psychic vampires (yes, they do exist), vampires, and shapeshifters in this series.

Can you tell us about the serial novel A Vampire’s Kiss and The Manigault Vampires Series?

The Manigault Vampires is a serialized, romantic erotica series in ebook. The first novel in this series is A Vampire’s Kiss. In this series, you’ll meet Drayton Manigault, the owner of Manigault Technologies and one of the richest businessmen in Columbia, South Carolina. Dray also happens to be one of the oldest vampires in the city. All the Witches in The Witchery Series novels return in this series for lots of erotic, vampy fun with Dray, Val (Dray’s older brother), and Atwell Gibbs (their cousin). Did I mention how gorgeous these vamps are? Oh, yeah, they’re smokin’ HOT in and out of the bedroom. Trust me! *lusty grin*

Because of the publisher chaos I have endured the last 16 months, I ended up going that long without a new novel being published. HORRORS! Not to mention there were six finished books of mine waiting to be published during that time. Yeesh! So to treat my long-suffering fans I released the vamp series as a monthly serial through Kittyfeather Press. It’s like a sexy, X-rated vamp fix the first week of every month when each new installment is published. Yummmmmmy!

If you couldn’t tell by my name, I’m a bit of a vampire fan, what is your favorite paranormal being?

Damn, that’s a tough one. I almost said a “hard” one, but you told me to stay PG for this interview, and that’s one of those word-triggers for me, so…. *lol* I adore the shapeshifter, Wynn, in The Rune Witch Series. But I would have to say vamps are my favs. Vamps are sex-on-a-stick, and their bite gives you an instant O. I mean, what’s not to like? Duh!

Who are your favorite authors? What about your favorite movies?

Emma Holly, Kathy Love (her 2 vamp series are awesome), Sherrilyn Kenyon, Delilah Devlin (HAWT cowboy erotica), and Lora Leigh (Bound Hearts series). Fav movie? Underworld ROCKS!!!

What is your best birthday memory? Just in case let’s keep it PG-13. LOLHow did you know I was thinking HOT b-day sex? Oh, you read my naughty blog posts for the two weeks before and after my b-day this year on April 2, didn’t you? Whew! Can you say “Sexfest”? Oh, yeah… *sex-obsessed grin*

What are you working on right now?

When I’m not writing my monthly e-newsletter, or email mailings to my list, or weekly blog posts, or my “Dear SexWitch” sex advice column in Witches & Pagans magazine, I’m working on the vamp series. Like every day. Series novelists are strange creatures. If we go too many days without working on one of our series we’ll need serious meds. Being that I’m already delusional and always think I’m 18, I try to avoid the men in white coats and work on my series every day. Yesterday was a good example. I keep vampire hours, working until 3-4:00am, crashing, then waking up at noon, and starting all over again. But yesterday was my monthly acupuncture treatment, and it’s at 11:00am. SHIVERS! So I was awake yesterday for 20 hours. And I got 11 hours of writing in: 6 hours to write the April issue of my newsletter, and 5 hours of writing on the vamp series. The Manigault Vampires series is unique in that it is unlimited, so I spend a lot of time on it. All my other series are trilogies (The Witchery Series, The Rune Witch Series, and The Faery Witch Series). You can go to http://www.avampskiss.blogspot.com/ to read more about all of them.

Do you have any upcoming appearances?

Not at the moment (amazing how that word keeps popping up, isn’t it? Of course, “popping up” sounds good too. Yummmy! But I digress…). Anyway, I used to do booksignings every month at my local Waldenbooks. But Borders closed 200 of their 300 Waldenbooks and Borders Express stores in January, and that was one of them. Bummer, cause I met some cool fans there from around the country. Plus, it’s in the mall, and the eye candy in the Deep South (I live in South Carolina) is AWESOME! Hunky guys of all ages with long gorgeous hair. Yumm! Sometimes I would be so enthralled with all the tasty male flesh walking by in the mall I’d forget I was there to sell books. Oops! Okay, so I’m a cougar. But that’s a good thing, right? lol

Where can we find you? (website, blog, twitter, facebook, etc.)Everywhere, actually. Here is a list of the sites I’m at every day. Friend me, collect me, follow me, or just play with me (purrrrrr…..!). I’m totally game. *kinky grin*

And now they are.  Squeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

Dontcha love these hunky covers?  Alex is AMAZING at everything she does for me, and her cover design is no exception.  LOVE these! 

Okay, this is the erotica trilogy that has been waiting, waiting, waiting for two years now at two other publishers.  One publisher went out of biz rather suddenly in March of 2009.  The other one just couldn’t get its act together in 2010 and publish my books.  So Kittyfeather took over, and now Wynn’s and Noelle’s erotic series is live.  Yay!

Here’s what its about:

“The Rune Witch Series is an erotica novella trilogy, featuring Noelle (a feisty alpha Rune Witch) and her HAWT boyfriend Wynn (a sexy shapeshifter).  Wynn and Noelle appeared in two of “The Witchery Series” novels (”What Witches Want” and “Call of the Witches”) as secondary characters.  Now this lusty couple has a series of their own, which takes place during the hot summer months of August and September in sultry South Carolina.  Follow these two as they go from one sexcapade to the next, while Wynn tries everything he can think of to convince commitment-phobic Noelle to marry him.  Good thing he never plays fair (naughty grin).  Keep a cold drink handy for this series.  You’re gonna need it!” 

1.) “Sex Magick: Book One of the Rune Witch Series” ($1.99)

Noelle Wylie is a Rune Witch, and at thirty-five she’s got it all.  This year she bought her dream home.  Then she let Wynn, her darkly handsome, shapeshifter boyfriend move in.  One evening Wynn gives Noelle a book on “sex magick.”  Intrigued, she decides to give it a try.  However, just as she experiences some of the best sex of her life she discovers Wynn has a hidden agenda.  Uh-oh!

2.) “Bewitched at the Beach: Book Two of the Rune Witch Series” ($1.99)

In this erotica novella Wynn is offered a long weekend trip to Hilton Head Island by his vampire boss, Drayton Manigault (from “A Vampire’s Kiss”).  Of course, Wynn and Noelle jump at the chance.  However the corporate beach house where they spend this three-day sexfest may never be the same again!  *lusty grin*

3.) “The Harvest Moon: Book Three of the Rune Witch Series” ($1.99)

After their neighbor, Savannah, has her a handfasting/wedding, Noelle and Wynn are left in charge of cleaning up Savannah’s house.  Of course, all work and no play threatens to make Noelle a cranky girl.  Horrors!  Thankfully, Wynn isn’t about to let that happen, so he seduces her with edible bubble bath, light bondage, sex, sex, and more sex.  Everything is coming up roses for those two until Noelle discovers she’s let the cat out of the bag.  Kinda.  

“Using hot description and erotic romance, Stamps brings to life a funny, new couple with brilliant and smooth writing. Highly recommended.  The Rune Witch Series is a must read!” (Lindsay Allison, Book Reviewer for Thoughts From Lindsay)

“Five Alarm hot! FAB-U-LOUS!!!!! I think my monitor just melted. Stamps is entering Lora Leigh territory now.  I needed a fire extinguisher for this one!  Very, very nice work.”  (Auntee, #4 Best Reviewer at Goodreads)

Just got a contract today from Trytium Publishing.  My ex-agent’s plan was to buy out my publishing contracts with my other publishers and put all my books with one publisher.  A BIG risk for me, but I decided to give it a shot.  That means he bought out my contract for “The Witchery Series” with Trytium last year.

Well, as you all know, the “new” publisher didn’t work out, and we parted ways on May 21.  That meant I finally got the 9 books back that publisher had been sitting on for almost a year.  Three of those books are “The Witchery Series” trilogy novels.  The deal my ex-agent worked out with Trytium was that those novels would never go out of print during the transition phase.  So Trytium has continued to publish them in paperback.  The minute I got all the rights back, I contacted Dave at Trytium, and told him to send me another contract.  That’s what I got today.  So Trytium will continue to publish this popular series in paperback, and Kittyfeather Press will now publish this trilogy in ebook with hunky new covers.  Cool, huh?

When I got the 9 books back in May, Alex and I set a goal of getting all of them published and in ebook (on my site and in the Kindle Store) in 30 days.  I mean, they’ve been languishing at different publishers for two years now, and enough is enough, ya know?!  Yeesh!

So far so good on reaching our goal.  I’ve been working like a crazy woman ever since and have completed final edits on “The Rune Witch Series” and “The Witchery Series” and put them in ebook format.  Now they’re in Alex’s verrry talented hands while she creates hunky covers for them and downloads them on my site in pdf and in the Kindle Store.  BTW, some of you have been asking me if I have a publication date on these two series.  Not exactly, but I can say they will go on sale in the next few weeks.

Last night I finished the first of the three books in my Memoir Series, “Being Naughty,” and sent it to Alex.  So I just have the last two to edit, put in ebook format, and send to Alex (“Still Naughty” and “Always Naughty”).  When I finish those two all 9 books will FINALLY be in production and ready to go.   Yay!

Speaking of the first memoir, “Being Naughty,” I thought I’d run an excerpt from it today.  It’s another one of my naughty memes.  This one is from August 29, 2008.  Yeah, this “Memoir Series” is full of all kinds of FUN stuff!

Enjoy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I found this meme at the blog of my saucy friend, Ann.  I usually avoid memes like the plague, but this one appealed to my inner dirty girl, so I thought I’d give it a shot.  To be honest, this was the usual clean meme when I found it on Ann’s blog, but I couldn’t help tweaking and rewriting it in terribly naughty ways. 

What can I say?  The strangest things excite my inner dirty girl.  Or as the Uber would say: “Laura, EVERYTHING excites your inner dirty girl.”

True.  Okay, here it goes:

1.) My uncle is unknown.  I’m the black sheep of my family, so I know very few of my relatives.  Actually, most of them have been warned away from me.  Seriously.  I’m supposed to be strange or something.  Silly rumors.  But what can you do?   *wicked grin*

2.) Never in my life have I smoked a cigarette.

3.) When I was five I was delusionally happy.  But I didn’t realize that until reality slam-dunked me when I was twelve.   Ouch!  I’ve been avoiding it ever since.  

4.) High school was a BLAST!!!

5.) I will never forget losing my virginity, but I wish I could.  Yeah, it was HIGHLY forgettable.

6.) Once I met my husband, my sex life improved drastically.  Yay!

7.) There was a guy I dated in college who couldn’t have an orgasm.  Yeah, it was fun, but after a while it was like ENOUGH ALREADY….JUST DO IT!!!

8.) Once, at a bar, I danced myself silly.  Actually, I did it more than once.  Actually, I did it all the time at any bar I went to and loved it.

9.) By noon I will have been on computer for six hours and still have two more hours to go before I finish answering all the emails from my readers/fans/friends for the day.

10.) Last night I thought about sex and groped my husband (as usual).

11.) If only I had known what I know now I would’ve had more fun.  Although I probably would’ve gotten into waaaaaay more trouble than I did back then, so I can’t complain.

12.) Next time I go to church will be in September when I go to a wedding in Charleston.  Luckily, only the parents of the groom know I’m a Wiccan Faery Witch, so there’s a good chance no one will freak.  Too much.  Or throw holy water at me.  No, wait.  That’s what they do to vampires, isn’t it?  Okay, hold the holy water.   

13.) What worries me most is nothing.  You think I’m too simple to worry, don’t you?  Yeah, you’re right.   

14.) You know I’m lying ….well, lying isn’t my thing.  Of course, I am a Southern Belle, so I will politely gloss over anything negative and do it with a smile on my face.  Trust me.  You’ll love it.  I’m really good at it.

15.) What I miss most about the seventies is the fact that almost every guy had long hair back then.  Now it’s a rare delight.  Although we do have quite a few men with long hair in the Deep South (thank you, thank you, thank you!).  So I’m not complaining.  Too much. 

16.) By this time next year I will have written more erotica novels and novellas.  Plus, I’ll be even naughtier, lustier, and more wicked than I am now.  And, yes, having a great time, as usual.

17.) A better name for me would be The Queen of Lust.

18.) I have a hard time understanding anything that doesn’t involve sex.  Hey, I’m just being honest!

19.) You know I like you if I’m still breathing, because as the Uber says (while he rolls his eyes): “Laura likes everyone.”  What?  Is that a crime?!!!

20.) If I ever won an award the first person I would thank would be Bast, my Patron Goddess.  Yeah, I’m Wiccan through and through.

21.) Take my advice, find a yummy guy, and fuck like monkeys for the rest of your life.  Trust me.  It’s a good strategy.  I should know.

22.) A song I love but do not have is a Journey song.  But I can’t remember the name of it, even though I’ve been listening to Journey and Steve Perry for three months now every day with no end in sight.  His voice reallllllllly turns me on.  Can you tell? 

23.) My ideal breakfast is an organic cashew butter sandwich on whole wheat bread.  Okay, I’m a vegetarian.

24.) If you visit my hometown from May-October you’ll run like crazy for the nearest air-conditioned building.

25.) Why won’t people stop enticing me with memes like this?  I am supposed to be researching oral sex and BJs today for my novels.  But my dirty girl is having too much fun with this meme instead.  Argh!

26.) I’d stop my wedding for sex.  No doubt about it.  Even though my mother would probably freak, because she was kinda in charge of my wedding like moms are when you’re 22 years old.

27.) I’d rather lick the belly of a cockroach (Is this disgusting or what?…Yeesh!…Who thought this one up, a cat?!!!)

28.) My favorite blonde is Donnie, my yummy hero from What Witches Want.  He could fuck me any day.  All day.  Again, and again, and again, and….well, ya know.

29.) If I do anything well it’s obsess about sex.  Did I already say that?  I can’t remember.  Oh, well…

30.) I can’t help but feel righteous indignation about not much of anything.  I’m too busy obsessing about SEX.

31.) I usually cry when I’ve been drained by a psychic vampire.  Yeah, I’m an Empath.  I have to be careful around vamps.  Where’s the holy water when you need it?!!

32.) My advice to my nephew is follow your heart.  You thought I’d say “follow your cock,” didn’t you?  Hey, I’m trying to be good here!

33.) And by the way you can’t beat GREAT SEX.  Did I already say that?  Oh, well…

Now I’m off to do the work I was supposed to be doing before I got sidetracked by this meme.  That would be researching oral sex and great BJ techniques.  Alrightyyyyy!  *lusty smile*
