Hello! I'm Zoombie! And...a lot of you may know me. But for those who don't know, for literally years I've been trying to sell various book in the YA/MG market and I've made a very depressing amount of traction. I got one novel out and it did very poorly. Then I got the same novel re-released and it did kinda poorly again.
So, nine months ago, I decided to start an erotica tumblr under a pseudonym and start posting stories there. Nothing much happened, but I was having great fun. Then a friend suggested I repost them to various other smut-sharing sites. So, I did!
Well, things go amazingly well from there and I realize that as much as I loved writing YA novels, I just don't see myself ever breaking in there. Doubly so when I have to split my attention between writing them and writing erotica - I try and write a short story a week while also working on the novellas I publish through Uruk Publishing and there's just not enough time in the day.
The final nail in the coffin came when I pitched the idea to take my already finished Worldshard novel, add sex, split it into novellas, and publish it through Uruk. My editor loved the idea, and...well...
I kinda feel sad, but also elated at the same time, but concealing my erotica writing from the Zoombie name suddenly seemed kinda silly, since I was literally going to publish a novel I've workshopped her with sex and such.
So! New avatar! New signature!
New career!
Hi everyone!
