#MyReads: Erotic Urban Legends: Taboo, by Alexa Nichols

Alexa has been on my list of want-to-read authors for quite a while and I’ve finally gotten around to purchasing one of her books.

Update: My review….

I love the writing style, it’s just that this was perhaps the wrong book to be my first “Alexaverse” read, despite the author’s note that I should not need to have read any of the other books to understand this one (I’ll also note that if you’re going to have a “preferred reading order” list for a connected universe, the best place for it is at the beginning of the book, not the end).

As for this story specifically, it left me feeling sad and uncertain how much of it was real, versus illusion being imposed on the main character. Perhaps I would have more certainty if I had read what came before it or that question would be answered by later books.

Launching a “7th Writer-versary Sale!”

My very first erotica story (“A Dream for Papa”) was posted to Literotica on March 13, 2016. Ever since, I’ve counted that as the start of my writing “career”, even though I didn’t launch the “M.R. Leenysman” pseudonym until later that year (based on my Literotica login, which is leenysman, standing for “Leeny’s Man”).

So, this March 13th marks my 7th anniversary of doing this — my writer-versary, if you will. So, how am I going to observe it? By having a 50% OFF sale at my store here at Leeny’s Press for the whole week — March 13-19!!

Unlike sales at Smashwords which I’ve promoted in the past, this even includes my $0.99 books, marked down to just $0.49!! (Smashwords maintains a minimum of $0.99, even during sales, and marking books down to $0 doesn’t benefit me much)

However, so that credit card processing fees don’t eat up a bunch of small transactions, I am establishing a minimum total purchase amount of $1.45 (should let you buy THREE $0.49 books, if you choose that combo). I’m likely to keep that minimum in place after the sale.

Anyway, if you’ve been on the fence about trying one of my books, this would be the time to buy, don’t you think?

February 2023 Blog Status

Spinning Globe

Yeah, I know I’m kinda late in reporting this. Life’s been a bit chaotic lately.

The good news is that blog traffic rose again, to the second-highest level in the last 12 months, exceeded only by July 2022. No new releases during the month, as I’m still working on Book 8 of the current series, currently titled “Homecummings.” Trying to figure out whether this is the ending of the series or not, etc. Hopefully I get it straightened out soon.
