I am so happy today to have guest author Sarah Lynn DeCuir on my blog!
I met Sarah a few years ago in an online erotica writers group, and since then, I've grown to greatly admire her talent for writing and her dedication to her craft. Aside from her writing, she's an all-around wonderful person and friend, and I'm excited for you to meet her! She's got a new release out, just in time for this year's Valentine's Day: the third book in her scorching hot bisexual erotica trilogy. Check out my interview with her below!

Welcome, Sarah! I'm thrilled to have you on the blog today. For those readers out there who are new to you, tell us a little bit about yourself.
I was born and raised in Fresno, California until I was sixteen when my family moved to a small town just outside of Portland, Oregon. As someone who’s always loved the outdoors, Oregon was a great place to live, but I felt drawn back to Fresno for some reason. Going with my gut, I moved back to the Central Valley when I was nineteen and was on my own for the first time. It wasn’t long until I began dating the love of my life. We were married a year later, so I guess fate had a plan for me in that regard lol!
That does sound like fate! Funny how things work out that way. Now, about your writing, when did you first start writing erotica? And why erotica?
I’ve always enjoyed reading erotica, but never really thought about writing it until I purchased my first erotic book from Apple iBooks (now it’s just called “Apple Books” but back then it was iBooks). I had a huge crush on Xena back in the day, and was looking for some Xena-like erotica when I stumbled across Leandra J. Piper’s “The Shaming of the Warrior Princess.” It’s one of those, the gorgeous guy is forcing me but I love it, stories. And it absolutely left me panting! A few things surprised me when I read it though. First was that I found a typo and I thought, how can a professionally published book have a typo in it? Then it dawned on me that it was an indie book. The second thing that surprised me was how short the story was at only four thousand words. I remember feeling a bit cheated by this at first, but then laughed as I realized the book had given me more than my money’s worth lol! But by far my biggest takeaway was the thought that I can do this too! And a few months later I published “The Office Affair.”
That's awesome! And speaking of "The Office Affair," what inspired it?
I’ve worked in a few offices and gotten the once over from the boss a time or two, but for the most part they’ve always been more or less professional environments, if not a little boring lol! I thought it would be fun to write a story with characters that didn’t have to worry about the real life complications of having an affair at work. Ones that could just have fun with it and indulge in the experience.
Well, I've read all three books, and I can tell you from experience, these books are pure naughty fun! Now that you're done writing the trilogy, are there any future projects in the works?
Oh my God yes, many! The first of which is a feature length screenplay. It’s an action thriller about a beautiful former CIA agent turned freelance operator who falls in love on a job, and has to decide between the guy she’s fallen for or the money. There’s lots of action, awesome locations, and a fair bit of romance as well. The script will be my main focus for the next few months, but there’ll be lots of hot erotica coming in the near future.
That screenplay sounds totally bad-ass! Wishing you the best of luck with it! So, just wrapping up the interview, I'll ask one more question: what, more than anything, do you want your readers to know about your work?
That it’s written with passion and that I put my heart and soul into it! And if it’s turning you on, know that it’s doing the same thing for me. I don’t write what I think people will get excited about. I write the stories that I’m excited and passionate to tell and hope that people will connect with them. So if you enjoy my work, we’re kindred spirits.💖
