 | Hello, my name is Willa Okati -- and welcome to my world!
You can almost always find me busily working away at the keys, producing yet another story out of the thousands that crowd my brain. I'm published with Changeling Press (www.changelingpress.com), Loose Id (www.loose-id.net), Torquere Press (www.torquerepress.com) and Samhain Publishing (www.samhainpublishing.com). For all you "Brotherhood" fans -- check me out at the other presses, too!
Mostly, I write M/M (male/male) romances, heavy on the erotica. Why do I choose to write in this genre? It's what I spent my early adulthood reading and loving, especially slash fanfiction. When my tastes shifted and I decided I'd like to write original fiction, it was a natural step to fall into writing gay erotica. I love to tell stories in which love features as prominently as sex, because I believe that gay men can truly fall for one another, and I like to think that my works reflect that. |
In my "off time", you can find me watching movies (I love the DVD rental services), reading a book on my Palm Pilot, or hanging out with the cats (I have six). Lately, you'll also find me sitting on the porch of my new-old home, part of a mill village in the town that I call home, or chatting with my friendly new neighbors.
I drink far more coffee than is deemed healthy by anyone sane. But I'll only drink stuff brewed from a vacuum-sealed brick if I'm desperate. Yeah, yeah, I know. *grin*
Mottos for life: Try anything once. It's true that writing is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration. Never, never, never give up.
I'm always open to suggestions for stories and new ideas, and I love to get e-mail from my readers -- plus, I always answer.
Thanks for coming to visit me here, and happy reading!
Cheers,
|
