Paige, tell us what
got you started in erotic romance?
I’ve always made up stories and played make-believe, ever
since I was a tiny little scrap of a thing. And I’ve always enjoyed the saucier
side of mainstream romance. So erotic romance was an obvious next step for me,
both as a reader and as a writer.
What do you like about erom compared to the other genres?
Writing erotic romance allows me to play. Romance is central
in every story, of course, but that relationship can play out in a modern
office setting, against a backdrop of distant galaxies in the far-flung future,
or a hundred and fifty years ago with the cast of characters in top hats and
fancy waistcoats. It can be funny or scary or sad. And at the end of the story,
the characters I’ve fallen a little bit in love with all live happily ever
after.
What
is your favorite relationship from your books? Tell us a little about it.
In Temporary Trouble,
the heroes play practical jokes on their office mates to relieve the monotony
of their temp jobs. The dynamic between them was such fun to write – two
naughty, lively young men who frankly deserve the spanking they’re eventually
given!
How
do you manage your productivity? Do you write a set amount of words per day?
I try to write every day – it might be 80 words or it might
be 8,000. More often it’s somewhere between the two. Of course there are days
when time-waster sites on the internet sing their siren song, or real life gets
in the way, but I’m usually keen to get back to my latest story and find out
what happens next.
If
you could be anywhere in the world, where is your dream writing space? Why?
My writing space is at home on the settee, under a blanket,
with my cat sitting next to me and my husband catering to my insatiable thirst
for tea. You can keep your sun-kissed beaches or stunning Alpine views – as far
as I’m concerned, there’s nowhere else I’d rather be!
Thank you, Paige, for being a guest today.
I wish you tons of success with your book!

Bio
Paige Turner likes to
write love stories with a difference. Whether it’s boy-meets-girl,
boy-meets-boy or werewolf-meets-vampire, she thinks everyone deserves a happy
ending. She lives partly in England but mostly in Cyberspace. She enjoys
dreadful puns and naughty stories, and believes the best way to have a good
time is by being bad.

ReplyDeleteYour ideal writing space is pretty much the same as mine... though you can keep the husband. I'm not fussed about having one of those. ;)
Congratulations on your big release day, Paige!
Welcome, Paige!
ReplyDeleteI have a husband, but he works during the day. Maybe I need a second one that can provide me a never-ending cup of tea. That sounds great!
Congrats on your first release!
