Today Louisa Bacio is my guest talking about her newest menage romance release, Mirabella’s
Mardi Gras Ménage. Please join me in welcoming her!
1. At any given time do you work on
only one story at a time and maybe plot out the next one or are there many
ideas racing around your head?
It really depends upon the story. I’m working on a
new erotic paranormal series. While I’ve finished the first book, I already
have plans for the next three. The stories don’t always come to me in such an
order, but I know who will be the main character in each, and pretty much how
the stories go. Not bad for a pantser, eh?
2. Is there a genre you haven't
written in but would like to? Or wish you could write in?
I’m almost done with a YA
novel that’s a “book of my heart.” I also have a mainstream contemporary book
I’d like to write. I have notes on it, but against, it’s a personal book –
about the loss of a close friend, and the separation from another as we’ve
become adults and drifted apart. Both of those veer from my normal genre of
erotic romance. Since I’ve been writing on contract the past few years, I
haven’t had a whole lot of time to delve into side projects.
3. Do you add an element of romantic
suspense in your stories?
My first novel Sex University: Physical Education was
an erotic romance thriller. There definitely was suspense in that novel.
Primarily, I write in the paranormal realm.
4. Say you have unlimited funds: What
kind of writing office/cottage would you create for yourself?
One thing for sure, I would need PLENTY of
bookshelves. Right now, I have one wall that’s only bookshelves and it’s full. I
would love a workspace built outside of the house. It’s gotten better as my
children have gotten older; however, when my youngest was a toddler, my husband
would give me “writing time,” and I’d go into the master bedroom, and have her
banging and crying on the door. It’s kinda hard to write romance under those
conditions.
5. If you could turn your novel into a TV show, which novel or series would you do? Where would it be set? Network TV (ABC, NBC, CBS), Cable (AMC, BBC, Lifetime) or Premium Cable (HBO, Showtime, Starz)?
Definitely my erotic
paranormal series, The Vampire, The Witch & The Werewolf. Right now, I’m up to four full-length novels and two
novellas, and I know these characters. Because of the content, it would have to
be a cable show.
That said, one story I’m
currently finishing I shelved for two years. The first time around, my husband
told me I had to turn it into a screenplay. He believes in it that much. So you
never know.
6. Finally, tell us about your latest
release!
Well, this story came to me as a surprise. When I finished book 4 The Wolfe Pack, I thought “that’s it.” Then a whispering started. Mirabella, who had been a side character throughout the series, insisted that she find her love. It actually turns out she has multiple loves … a threesome. I really like this story. It’s hot, but also sweet. It contains an element of finding oneself, and also being happy with who they are. And, I definitely hope others feel the same way.
Mirabella’s Mardi Gras Ménage
Constantly under the watchful eye of her
Voodoo priestess aunt, Mirabella longs to break free during the events of Mardi
Gras. Escapades draw her into the arms of Marguerite, a fiery redhead with a
passion for life, and Nick, a familiar vampire who’s haunted by his
transformation and past.
What
starts as a new experience – a Mardi Gras Ménage – soon turns deadly, and none
of their lives will ever be the same.
Available via Ravenous Romance, Amazon, Barnes
& Noble and other eRetailers.
