Guest Diva Robyn Bachar Dishes about Bite Me

For those who don't know her, Robyn is a wonderfully talented author who I was honored to be in a critic group with. She is also the person who convinced me romance is the genre I needed to write. I'm so happy to welcome her here today so she can tell us all about herself, her writing, and her very yummy new book-Bite Me!


What is the Heat level of your books from 1 to YOWZA?

This one has an orgy in it, so I suppose it qualifies for YOWZA. Bite Me has a f/f/m ménage and some light kink. (The heroine’s inner lust demon, Mistress Elizabeth, has enough sex toys to start her own store.) ;-) Bite Me’s heat level is on par with my sci-fi ménage series, the Cy’ren Rising trilogy.

What are you writing right now? Is it part of a series?

I always have a few projects in the works. Right now I’m working on the next installment of my Bad Witch books. It’s a bit haunted house, a bit Beauty and the Beast, and very steamy. I also have a fantasy romance planned for later this year, and another Bad Witch book.

Any hobbies non-writing related (stalking male cover models on Facebook doesn’t count)?

Gaming. Right now I’m addicted to Dragon Age: Inquisition. That’s not surprising considering I was addicted to the first two games in the series—I’ve played Dragon Age Origins over 20 times, and every time I encounter new material. That game is so good. Plus BioWare includes romance options in their storylines, so you get to save the kingdom and get the guy.


JUST A DECADENT TASTE….
·        
       Last book you read?: Widdershins by Jordan L. Hawk, and now I want to read all of the books in that series. I loved it.
·       
      Cake or pie?: Cake, unless it’s a chocolate pie.
·       
      Stand alone or series?: Series. I’m very nosy, and I like to hear what happened to characters after the        first book ended.
·       
          Novella or novel?: Novel.
·      
      Real or pen name?: I write under my real name. ;-)
·       
      Vanilla or ANY another flavor?: There’s a time and place for vanilla, and that is buttercream frosting.
·       
      Tattoo or piercing?: Tattoo, I have four of them.
·       
      Once Upon A Time or The End?: Once Upon a Time is so much easier to write than The End!


Bite Me Blurb

Consumed by the need to feed…

After an out-of-control spell triggers the zombie apocalypse, Lizzy Addams is left in the ruins of Chicago with only the slightly unhinged commentary—and endless erotic appetites—of her inner demon for company. Her blood supply dwindling, she is forced to find survivors to feed from, or die trying.

Officer Angela Kinney was on duty when hungry corpses overwhelmed the city. The survivors look to her for leadership, but nothing prepared her for a beautiful monster who offers safety in exchange for blood.

Sean MacMillan never expected to see Lizzy again after she rejected his attempts to lure her back to the vampire fold. But with his flock threatened by the horde and his murderous vampire brother, Lizzy is the only one he can trust to keep them safe.

The veil of secrecy shrouding the supernatural world torn apart, humanity’s only hope is to forge an alliance with vampires, werewolves, and things that go bump in the night. Though accepting their aid could be a devil’s bargain that puts humans at the bottom of the food chain.

Warning: Contains vampire orgies, angsty demon sex, a frisky lesbian werewolf, light kink, and enough sex toys to start a store.

Interview with Guest Diva Robyn Bachar


What is the Heat level of your books from 1 to YOWZA?

The Cy’ren Rising books might be YOWZA, because they’re in Samhain’s Red Hots!!! category. (Three exclamation points serious, people.)  They’re ménages, and the first two have m/f/f/ romances and the final book in the trilogy is m/m/f. Pretty spicy. ;)

Why did you start writing?

Because the voices in my head won’t let me sleep if I don’t let them out to frolic on the page. I’ve always been a writer—I started my first novel in 8th grade. I don’t understand how people don’t write. There’s always at least one story brewing in my brain.

Biggest (non-writing) influence in your life?

My parents are both former gym teachers. (If you’ve ever wondered what happens when gym teachers breed, you either get a star athlete like my brother or a total book nerd like me.) They instilled a “you can do it!” drive in me, which has motivated me to attempt scary things like submitting to agents and publishers. Because yeah, you might get rejected, but you can’t win the game if you don’t play.

What has been your biggest writing influence - book or another author?

Nora Roberts. I want to be Nora Roberts when I grow up. ;) Though really I’m inspired by the other writers I’ve met, like the lovely Chandra Ryan who invited me to blog here today. Every writer has a story about what inspires them, and I find them all fascinating.

What are you writing right now? Is it part of a series?

I’m working on a super-secret project with my best friend Diana, which is a stand-alone novel. For NaNoWriMo I’m going to start the first book in a new sci-fi romance trilogy.

Do you write full time?

I do, though I’m looking for a day job. I love writing, but it’s good to get out of the house too. Plus the puppy has a bed behind my desk, and every time I start to write she bites my ankles.

A writing goal you haven’t shared with anyone?

I want to write a book that becomes a summer blockbuster movie. The kind with a dashing, swoon-worthy hero and a kickbutt heroine and lots of explosions.

Any hobbies non-writing related (stalking male cover models on Facebook doesn’t count)?

Gaming. I don’t do online gaming like I used to, but I enjoy Dragon Age and Mass Effect on my Xbox. I’m soooo looking forward to the release of Dragon Age: Inquisition.
