Person #1 “Someone said Tracy Ames is leaving erotica.”
Person #2 “Bullocks!”
Person #1 “No, I’m serious. I heard she’s leaving at the end of the year.”
Person #2 *Freaks out* “I know Tracy and she ain’t leaving!” *Races home, emails me*
Tracy: *Sigh* "Not again."
For the record: I, Tracy Ames, am not leaving erotica. The misconception was fueled by a comment I made during a recent interview where I said “I’m working on a few crossover projects which will consume a great deal of my time. However, I’m in no way leaving the genre, although my online readers may see a slight difference in my writing style.”
Reading the abovementioned, how was I misquoted?
All artists experiment with writing styles and genres, and some write in multiple genres simultaneously. People change and, contrary to popular belief, artists are people. *gasp*
Besides, it would be very silly of me to leave erotica when I have three manuscripts baking in the oven. So, no, I’m not leaving the genre—I’m working on collaboration projects. I wrote in this blog post and this blog post about my impending deadlines and workload. Again, I’m not going anywhere.
I have decided to return to my book hand (slower paced) and cool the lovin’ just a bit. Not douse the flames—just cool it. That said, I have two new stories for The Hellfire Club.
C’mon guys, did you really think I’d hang up my flog that easily?
That’s about it for right now. I have to put the finishing touches on TCNN and my year end blog. No rest for the wicked.
Again, for clarity: I’m not leaving erotica!
Thank my sister Pam for today's comic

Glad to know that our fearless leader is not jumping ship (By the way, I never considered the possibility). Happy New Years lady!

Exactly Judy! I love erotic romance. Do you know how many stories I've read about stupid race issues? "Oh I can't love you because you're white or black" or "I can't take you home because my family would disapprove"
We're so much deeper than that. I'm staying my behind right where I am! |

Glad to know it, although I hadn't heard the rumors. And yes like you I'm looking for more from IR romance and erotica than just race. Probably why I'm writing some LOL.

I didn't know you were writing. One day you'll have to share. :) I don't understand anyone could've read my comment and taken it the wrong way.

Ha! I have that comic on my desktop. That's what I like to hear. Not that I thought you were leaving. Can't see it happening, it's just too much apart of who you are. I like different genres of literature so even if you wanted to switch I would still read it.

Thanks Cali! Erotica is where I began, I'll never leave it...but that doesn't many I'll become mired in it, lol. That's silly.
I like this comic...Pam's always good for a laugh. She's not evil all of the time. :) |

lol, love Ms. Pam's skit, I always tell my friends whenever they say women aren't into porn.....yes they are, its called harlequin romance and erotica. We just like to read it instead of be subjected to the crude & fake orgasm that is most porn movies.
