Britni Pepper
Britni Pepper has always enjoyed telling stories. About people, places and pleasures. Her schoolmates loved listening to her stories about princesses and pirates and dragons, and once she looked up to find the principal looking on. "No, no, don't stop, Britni," he said.

What happened next was university, a job in the travel industry, and a career of travelling the world meeting the most fascinating people. Britni has travelled to thirty of the world's nations and loves making up stories about fascinating people doing interesting things in exotic places.
No longer tales about princes and wizards, but her stories are just as much fantasy as ever.

Such fellows!

Love is blind
I've been following Kelanie Black, erotica writer, for some time. In a field of literature where so many seem to write the same stories over and over, Kelanie stands out as providing a different take on things.She has found a…
Adultery entertainment

Underground reading
Don't ask me how I came across this book. Let's just say that writers in general and erotica writers in particular find some strange corners of the internet while doing research.This is not a review. Just a heads up for…
