Writers Talk

Join Cassandre Dayne on Sunday, April 6th at 2pm EST as she explores artists who take their work to the edge. Up on tap this week? One HOT author who has not one but THREE personas. Whether she's writing as Rawiya, Michael Mandrake or BL Morticia, her pieces are sizzling, poignant and the majority decidedly m/m. She calls herself crazy for writing with three pseudos, but her readers call her amazing and thoroughly enjoyable. A mother of two, her three muses keep her a bit off kilter, while love and the intricacy of sometimes difficult relationships drive her work to the very edge. Published with Naughty Nights Press and Rebel Ink Press (as well as several self pubbed titles) you're going to find something to savor night after wicked night.  Please join Cassandre as she explores the many sides to a complex and wonderful author. If you dare... Are you ready to be driven to the edge of sensuality?
