SHATTERED GLASS BY DANI ALEXANDER Shattered Glass Copyright 2011 Dani Alexander. Let me know if I’ve made the right decision by reviewing my stories =D. I may change my mind and submit later stories to ebook publishers, but for now, I’m all on my own. I made the decision to self publish because I wanted control over my story and my cover. After all I was a member of Less Than Three press and I buy more books at Amazon, Dreamspinner Press and Samhain than I should. Not that I have a problem with publishing houses. I decided when it was time, that I would self publish my novels. It’s my first release called Shattered Glass. The second story came just as naturally, though I took my time and crafted it over the period of a year. I wrote my first story – which I will publish for free once I have time to edit it – in a month. The moment I started writing slash (m/m or gay fiction) I couldn’t stop. Having been a gay rights activist, a PFlag member and finally an out and proud genderqueer individual, I felt I’d finally delved into a world I both understood and felt inherently part of. Then I found the world of original slash fiction and fanfiction. I couldn’t quite find my way to a story that made sense to me or that made me feel emotionally invested in the characters. Moving on.Īfter finding that story, the writing bug slipped into my skin and began an itchy reminder to put some words on paper. You will never know of my erotic limo rides with Dave Ga- er. Needless to say, I burned that when I found it a few years ago. It was a fanfiction RP fic starring me and the lead singer of my favorite band at the time. The boring history: I wrote my first story when I was 15 years old. This is why I have to read them several times and so does my editor. He loves to read my stories and edit, but he refuses to read the sex scenes. I came out to my husband and he is nothing but supportive. I’m a giant flaw with one redeeming quality. As long as it’s consensual, it’s fair game. Bondage, masochism, sadism, domination, slave, uniform fetishes, latex, toys. But the sex in my stories is never gratuitous. Somehow they even manage to have sex during all of that running/investigating. I enjoy suspense and my characters often have killers, guns, knives, Albanian women with big hands and/or psychopaths chasing them. My stories will bludgeon you with angst and then make you laugh through your tears (I hope). A good story with lots of angst and a healthy dose of laughter. The type of books I like to write: I love romance with an edge.
