I submitted my first contest story, for the Winter Holiday Contest: All I Want For Christmas C'est Toi. It's more of a quick romp than my recent stories, but I like to think it might be the beginning of a longer romance.
Please go give it a read, preferably with a glass of bubbly at hand, for a bit of atmosphere. I hope you like it enough to give it the needed 25 votes to be eligible. :)

Thank you all for your wonderful positive feedback on A Dream That I Can Call My Own. It's so inspiring, specially on a story like this, that honestly took some emotional effort to finish.
If I made you cry, I hope they were happy tears at the end. Believe in love, it is a truly transformative power.

I finally finished A Dream That I Can Call My Own, a story about trauma and the healing power of love. It's up and ready to read. Writing this has been a rollercoaster of feelings, I hope you'll like it.

----- Hi, I'm Red -----
I hope you enjoy my stories, as much as I enjoy the ones I read here.

Thank you for all your wonderful comments, I love reading them and they encourage me to write more and trust my instincts when the characters or the story take an unexpected turn in my head.

I read all kinds of stories here, but I'm a big fan of slow burning romance with heartache and people finding love in spite of difficulties. Writers like Onehitwanda, JCMcNeilly and BrokenSpokes are my inspiration here. Please do read their brilliant, beautiful stories.

Writing is more of an occasional escape from reality than a real hobby, but the incredible reception of 'When the Dark Dresses Lightly' has encouraged me to try to bring more characters to life. I don't have any illusions of being able to duplicate WDDL anytime soon though, so please be patient 🙂

Thank you for Beta reading for me and making my writing better.

*Slow burn lesbian romances*
- When The Dark Dresses Lightly -
If you are going to read just one of my stories, read this one. Inspired by Onehitwanda's wonderful romances, it explores how love can flourish unexpectedly in dark places.

- A Dream That I Can Call my Own -
Charlie's journey is the hardest thing I've written, and sadly draws from the reality of too many young LGBTQI+ people's lives. Have a box of tissues handy if you decide to follow Charlie on her healing journey.

- All I Want For Christmas C'est Toi -
If you're ever in Lyon, take the time to stop for a drink at the magnificent Le Dome bar in Hotel-Dieu de Lyon, and raise a glass of champagne rosé to Julie and her madame. This is mostly a short Christmas seduction and romp, but It feels like it might be the beginning of a longer romance. I might even write some of it someday.

*Uncovering Jamie - series*
James/Jamie's exploration of their nonbinary identity, through their relationship with Diana is at the heart of this series. It's got a bit of light power exchange as well.

*Thank You Mr. Stanley - series*
This is just a bit of smut. A high school teacher does all the wrong things with one of his students. Don't look for any deep meaning in this one. Not my proudest moment, but it was fun to write.
