Sinfully Sexy Playlist for Covenant of Wolves 1: Stalker(Dub Mix)

The image above is what I based Millie’s character on in Stalker(Dub Mix) because it shows a level of sensuality and ice, cold pixie and nudity.  It was the spark for the story and the soundtrack which led me to write the piece originally for Loose-ID until it got picked up by Agent Marisa Corvisiero of Corvisiero Literary Agency.  I’m in the process of giving the story one last round of edits before sending it to Marisa and letting her work her magic with the story.

The playlist in such a brutal land as the Unseelie kingdom includes the following songs:

VNV Nation – Rubicon
VNV Nation – Epicentre
Assemblage 23 – Fallen down
Combichrist – Shut up and Swallow
Combichrist – Get Your Body Beat
Combichrist – Fuck That Shit
Combichrist – Sent To Destroy (The video helps!)
Nile – User Maat Rae
Nile – Annihilation of the Wicked
Nile – The Language of the Shadows
Killswitch Engage – As Daylight Dies
VNV Nation – Tempest
Icon of Coil – Transfer: Complete
Icon of Coil – Love As Blood
Claire Voyant – Iolite
The Gathering – Monsters

It’s a highly electronic soundtrack because I created a cyberpunk world of Faery and this keeps me in the mood.   There is actually more NILE on the list and I’m sure at some point I’ll go through here and nail down what songs really stick for what parts, but this is how I write stories.  Using music, taking lyrics, ideas, melding them together with what I hear and love and then throwing in a romance plot.  There will be excerpts released as well as cut scenes soon as I have the ability to do so!  And oh yeah, this is a hotter book than 50 Shades…

New Cover Art for BDSM Erotic Romance story Her Male Slave

 

And it’s an older book BUT It’s also better written than 50 Shades of Grey!

Her Male Slave is a story of corporate seduction, a very dominant woman and a scheming employer. Anastasia Forrester is asked by her boss to use her Dominatrix skills to seduce his competitor, Jerry Norman. Then she is to force Norman sell his company over, or face exposure and blacklisting in the corporate world. It is an easy task for a woman of Anastasia’s inclinations until she becomes the cause for Jerry’s auto accident. Wealthy Jerry Norman’s life is empty and lonely until he ends up in the hospital after the accident, sees Anastasia, and realizes she is a woman he would do anything for. Soon his resolve is put to the test as Anastasia demands Jerry’s complete submission, and he finds himself in chains, being strictly trained, her helpless, willing slave.

Read an excerpt:

SHORT Excerpt:

“Fuck it, I’m going to have that man.”  Anastasia paced around her tiny office.  Her small dungeon was probably too large for someone who had never seen a flogger or riding crop outside of the horse track, and she didn’t want to shock Jerry, just fuck him.  And make him beg for her.

He’d just have to get over it. She’d have to be careful not to hurt him again.  Anastasia was playing with fire in more ways than one.

She sat back down at her desk; she had work to do.  But later tonight, plans needed to be made.  As soon as she dropped Jerry off at home, she’d make a trip to her dungeon.  The sheets on the bed had to be changed, she needed to buy new candles and hide some of the more extreme toys.  She could see Jerry’s expression when he saw her speculum.  “What the fuck do you intend to do with that?” he’d say.  Or her spreader bars.  She chuckled at the thought.  He’d look so pretty tied up with her spreader bars to a bench.  What she’d love to do to him.

The thought was enough for her to get up from her desk and lock the door.  She came back to her desk, opened a lower drawer and pulled out a little pocket vibrator.  Anastasia unbuttoned her blouse a little, pulled out a breast and tweaked her nipple to a hard peak with her fingernails.  She slipped off her shoes, lifted her skirt to her hips and tugged her panties off a little. The vibrator hummed quietly against her thigh as she slid it upwards towards her wet lips.  The tiny toy caused quivers throughout her body as she imagined Jerry’s tongue lapping at her.

“What a good boy you’ve been,” she thought as she pictured his reddened ass moving up and down from swats of her flogger.  It would be hard to control where the tails landed as he ate her.  When the orgasm hit, Anastasia tried to suppress a scream but ended up biting her lip and yelping anyway.

Goddamn the pain felt good!  It’d been too long since she’d had a real male slave, she’d decided.  Why did she feel so empty at the thought of just fucking him?

New Cover Art – Menage Bound, another 1NS from Decadent Publishing!

A tired corporate executive needs a break from the hectic work life she leads.  She wouldn’t mind if that break came in the form of two hunky dominant males.   Jason and Chase have had trouble finding a woman who could accept them and their penchant for kink.

I wrote this story at a friend’s request because she’d been teasing me with the idea of this fantasy for awhile.  Then I said, you’re taunting me, so here it is!  And now, BOOM BABY, she got her wish of two hunky dominant men who also need an accepting, submissive woman.  Release date soon to come!

50 Books better than 50 Shades of Grey!

I can’t help but milk this to the very last drop.  The book isn’t on my anything list other than “fuck this book” list.  Laura Antoniou even gave us a parody that rocked as it was just funny as hell…

I’m probably not going to be able to list 50 titles.  So suggestions are welcome!  Anything that drives traffic and helps my SEO bwahahaha!

The books in question here are superb in every way, from plot, to originality, to the most basic writing skill.  And are listed in no order.

  1. The Ice Queen – Joey W. Hill
  2. Jack’s Christmas Wish – Bonni Sansom
  3. Gift of Her Submission – Sascha Illyvich (Think I wasn’t going to include my own titles here!  HA!)
  4. The vampire Queen’s Servant – Joey W. Hill
  5. Bound for Romance – Various.  I only edited this anthology but all four authors have a unique spin on BDSM
  6. Master of the Shadowlands – Cherise Sinclair (A very astute student of mine!)
  7. Broad Horizons – Edited by Beth Wylde (Admittedly I’m in the second anthology)
  8. Siddella’s Surrender – Sascha Illyvich
  9. The Gift – Kim Dare
  10. Yuletide Greetings – Sue Lyndon
  11. Dance Macabre – Laurel K. Hamilton (Even in first person too!)
  12. The Vampire Queen’s Servant – Joey W. Hill
  13. Rosy Cheeks – Marianna LaCroix
  14. Submissive – Anya Howard
  15. The Marketplace series -Laura Antoniou
  16. The Velderet – Cecilia Tan
  17. Trouble in Cowboy Boots – Desiree Holt
  18. Ride’sm – Tilly Greene
  19. Members Only – Ann Jacobs
  20. Siddella’s Submission – Sascha Illyvich
  21. The Ice Queen – Joey. W.  Hill
  22. Fallen Star – Morgan Hawke
  23. Wicked Intent – Lora Leigh
  24. Wonderland:  King of Hearts – Cheyenne McCray
  25. I Will Submit to You, Master – Sascha Illyvich
  26. The Playground – Sascha Illyvich (yeah, I’m not vain.  I swear it!)
  27. The Irish Devil – Diane Whiteside
  28. Wolf Tales Series – Kate Douglas (Not traditional BDSM but strong elements of D/s are involved)

As I said, this is just a partial list, but all of these authors are way better than 50 Shades of Grey.  Hell I haven’t read it yet but I’m sure Andrew T. Shaffer’s 51 Shades parody is better too!  Incidentally I’ve actually read most of these books AND I know most of the authors.

Bwahahaha, so give some authors some love!  Feel free to add more current reads to this list in the comments!

Frolicon 2012!

was AWESOME!  I was able to pimp my panels, get some education, co-top with a friend I respect more (You reading, Vince?) now and consider a good male friend.  Hanging out with Cecilia Tan was as usual awesome, filled with fun, bullshitting, industry gossip (you reading, erotic romance industry?  I haz sekrits…bwahahahaha!) and be taken care of by two of the most loving and practical people I’ve met since I started doing conventions.  This is my public adoration, thank you for Barefoot Bill and LaDonna as caretakers, hosts and more.

If you attended my male POV send me an email at wolfprinceeditor at gmail.com so I can forward you my notes and class info in case you’re interested in taking the class online when it’s offered through RWA or my private loop.  The fee will remain low, $25 or so because I want this class to be accessible to as many writers of romance and erotica as possible.  The value is as I’ve been told, priceless.

Also, since I showed up and was running on very little sleep, too much alcohol and the like, I’ll share the notes etc.

The Duckstock party kicked ass.  Duck Juice is…a creeper!  LOL!

Co-topping was AWESOME!

What I want to know is how the fuck did it get to be 11:55 local time while I wrote this post…swore I only smoked two cigars.

More fun at the expense of 50 Shades of Grey

I heard that atrocious book 50 Shades of Grey is going to be made into a movie.  Readers are wondering what they’ll do since the majority of the book is BDSM “mommy porn” and how they’ll cut or what they’ll cut out of the book for the movie to make sense.

It’s funny to think about this as an experiment of what’s good for BDSM and the public and what’s not.

In terms of readership, readers want a full story full of twists and turns, and to keep guessing.  They like to think.  The movie audience does too but visually, their minds see what the director shows them.

In some instances, a LOT of stuff will be cut.  In a book like 50 Shades of Grey, with as much heavy handed BDSM as a theme, with the fact that TRUST must be shown, any director who is NOT familiar with the Lifestyle will probably make a LOT of mistakes, not entirely on purpose due to the medium being changed.

I’ve been studying film and screen writing, trying to grasp the structure of a story told via the written script and how it compares to that which is shown on screen.  It’s not easy and while your humble romance author is smart, I’m still simple.

I imagine a LOT of the book will get cut or reworked for film purposes  Fans will either love it or hate it, and it won’t matter because at the end of the day we’ll still have one thing to fall back on.

Secretary.  A movie about BDSM done RIGHT.

Once again this post was another “done for SEO purposes” post.  Though I do not have a strong opinion of 50 Shades of Grey.

Teaching BDSM to Romance Authors March 19-23rd

I haven’t done this in awhile, but I’m also performing an experiment.  Anyway,

Kink and bondage are highly popular, marketable stories. Many folks think that once a book is written the author’s job is done. Not so. As any seasoned author knows, once we finish writing, we have edits, cover art choices, more edits, and of course the hype. Marketing, promotions. PR Hell as it is known in some circles. That’s the toughest part of any author’s job IMO and will make or break any author dumb enough to rely solely on the publisher. Our job as authors is a business and needs to be treated like such, even if we DO get to have a little more fun than any corporate schmo.

So, in order of author responsibilities after we’ve written the novel of course:

1. Establish the Brand (I’m Sascha Illyvich, paranormal erotica/BDSM romance author)
2. Maintain the Brand (Primarily through PR, I write about wolves, fae, vampires, but you’ll never see me write a western!)
3. Grow the Brand (I write paranormal romances, which puts me in with the anime crowd who likes dark fantasy, the BDSM crowd because my characters engage in mental dominance AND the romance crowd because my stories have a HEA!)

This workshop will focus on Number 3: Grow the Brand. What authors often fail to realize is that in including different elements like spanking or light bondage that they are writing for their normal audiences but with a little more effort could target not just the fringe readers; those who are closeted about their darker desires, but those who are a little open with their darker desires.

What we’ll cover:
• Definition of BDSM in all forms
• SSC vx. RACK
• Explanation of the BDSM symbol
• Mentality of the various players (there’s truly only three but variants are fun!)
• Definition of a Scene
• Structure of a Scene (music, equipment, etc)
• Basics on toys and reasons we use them (hint, it’s for our fun!)
• Sub and Dom/me Space
• The Club Scene (along with a story about real estate and my ego beating lol!)
• Role play
• Definition of Fetish
• Basic types of fetishes while debunking some of the more common fetish myths.
• Fakers – Those who claim to be everything to all people!
• ABUSE defined – crossing the line between BDSM and Abuse
• Where to go to ask questions and not feel embarrassed
• How all of this relates to romance writing
And of course, resources galore!

New Cover Art – Bound For Love – BDSM Romance

Out SOON – From Sizzler Editions

Edited by Sascha Illyvich - Male Dominant, female submissive stories of erotic bondage and love

BOUND FOR LOVE – Tales of Erotic Bondage and the Heart

BDSM and Romance seem to be two worlds that one never think go hand in hand.  Yet, the most intimate of acts can include bondage.  Be it physical or mental, bondage holds a certain romantic aspect for those who indulge.    Starting with an office romance turned darker by desires made known, and continuing with a mental ride, the types of bondage in this anthology showcase that true power comes not from the outside, but from within the desire to be wholly owned by someone trustworthy.  The journey of romance is one fraught with tests, even more so when you add the theme of restraint, proving that nothing more powerful than the most purist form of love can survive all the roadblocks.  The stories in this anthology take the reader on a euphoric, sometimes overwhelming journey of love and acceptance through the forms of restraint.  Starting with Gianna Simone’s tale about a police officer in need from a coworker with a dark secret, we move to PM White’s tale of a poetry slam judge and the woman who sought him through time.  Long time author Marianne LaCroix serves up a dish of humble pie when she regales us with a tale of male submission, proving that great strength comes not from gender, but from person.  Oceania tickles our tootsies with a lighthearted spy tale while Sascha Illyvich shows us the true meaning of possession.  Clarice Clique reminds us that true submission comes not from experience but from the heart, no matter what Master may say.  Cèsar Sanchez Zapata once again proves that love at your Queen’s feet can be had if you’re willing to work for it while Marge T Felcher gives us a tale about a Dominant who truly loves every inch of his beloved submissive.  Margie Church and K. B. Cutter start something beautiful in Razor, leaving us to end on a high note thanks to Genevieve Ash’s tale about a woman who finds her true place by the man she loves.  All in all, Bound for Love is sure to please both novices and Old Guard alilke!

New Review – The Playground

Newest Release by Sascha Illyvich, erotic romance author at Decadent Publishing

EEEEE!!! My first 1Night Stand from Decadent Publishing received this review:

“I found this story very intriguing. Sascha made ‘The Playground’ very realistic, where anyone could picture themselves in Devon’s or Shelly’s shoes by using a scenario that has affected most of us at some point in our lives. Closure is so important and I liked the emotional honesty the story displayed. The dom/sub being portrayed from a ‘non toys’ perspective, showing how simple clothes can be used, was a great addition allowing the honesty to grow along with the characters. The agreement to go slow completed the honest emotional undertaking of the story showing some things have to be worked on and don’t just magically happen. Not to mention the ‘hot sex’ was integral to the story making this one ‘hot read’ emotionally tangling read.” – Rae Spencer
