Writing has been my passion for as long as I can remember. Writing erotic romance stories is a joy. Real life inspires much of my erotic fiction, but I like that erotica allows me to explore all the bedroom and lifestyle options from the safety of my home. Writing about sex is almost the next best thing to having it—almost. There's nothing like a gentle yet firm caress, a deep voice whispering in my ear, a probing kiss, and my juices begin to flow—creative and otherwise. When not busy at the computer or taking care of my home, I love photography, the beach, long rides in the country, star gazing, and the pleasures of a good book and even better company. I'm a member of Erotica Author's Association, Erotica Readers & Writers Association and Desdmona's FishTank. My paid stories can be found at Ruthie's Club, The Erotic Woman, Erotic Bookworm, and Justus Roux. Author's Page at: Published Authors at http://publishedauthors.ning.com/profile/CassieExline.
