Day 8 in the
9 Days of Darkness event!
Today you get to chat with A.P. Miller
12-6:00 PM PST
Who is A.P. Miller?
(Written By: Highland Hussy)
A.P. Miller is a husband and wife writing team who despite incredible differences, works really well together. Andrew is a sweet and intelligent man who is tempered by Patti's quick wit and literary brilliance. Their erotica & BDSM novels are more than just a story, or a quick escape, it is an intensely researched storyline with plot, and backstory, rather than just sex for the sake of sex.
DL and I had a great long lunch/interview with them, and we discovered how well-read Andrew is, and how Patti has a quiet side until she has something to say, and then watch out! Not only is she intelligent, but funny too. After getting a start in fan-fiction, Andrew found Patti on her website, and the rest is history. They write together now, and anyone who has read "Librarians Don't Get Married" knows how intricate and detailed their work is. They will be on the website today, talking with commentors, so ask alot of questions and don't be afraid to ask the naughty ones!
Patti's very straightforward..she'll answer you!

Review of Librarians Don't get married
4 STARS
Have you ever see that mild mannered Librarian, you know the one I mean; straight laced, hair in a tight bun, glasses, pencil skirt & high collared blouse. And sometimes think, that every man's fantasy is that she’ll trade in her Dewey Decimal System at 5pm, let down her hair and turn into a raging sex starved tiger of a nymphomanic?? (that might be my husband's fantasy...)
Well hello there! You've just the main character in this book, Miss Weiss. Well, maybe she's not starved, anyway...
But things are not what they seem in her sleepy little town. She is a member of a secret society; one where sex, BDSM and deviant behavior is expected and encouraged. Miss Weiss finds it her duty to hand pluck and mold a new recruit, show him the way "into the fold", if you will.
There’s many players in this story, seems almost no one in the town is left out. As sexy & explicit as this book is, it delivers so much more to the reader then just a naughty jaunt to “fantasy island”; giving us the gift of connection, desire, lust and joy to be shared alongside the characters within it. It gives us intricate stories, amazing detail and most of all; a reason for this story to be, to exist, to captivate; a simple possibility that these fantasies can exist.
Please note that this book is XXX and rides that slippery slope between "Take me to bed or lose me forever!" & "Bow chica WOw WOw". So don't say I didn't warn you about the HAWTness level of this novel!
A.P. Miller’s writing is skilled and seamlessly crafted, a joy to read no matter what the genre. As are the couple that write them, a joy, that is.
I am honored to meet such a wonderful author (you too Andrew!), Patti is a stong but kind hearted woman and fabulous cheerleader for a budding author.
Andrew, you are a remarkable bundle of happiness and energy unlike any I've ever seen.
Together, you are a perfect balance, Yin & Yang. Please keep doing what you do!
And Patti... You go girl! For snagging a man 20 years your junior. LOL

Hi MaDonna
You can find the books on the links at the end of the review.
But here's the main website:

DL
Great to have you both here!
I'm fascinated by writing teams and love to hear about how they work together
I noticed that you have books coming out as films - congrats! What's the first one we can expect to see?
(posted on usual places, no need to enter me in contest)
Hello Girls and thanks so much for stopping by! First I want to answer the question on book trailers. It's like watching a movie trailer if they are created properly. As far as selling the book, I believe it is a selling point but what truly sells the book is the story itself and the authors writing.
Our books can be found at: Red Rose Publishing, Noble Romance, Carnal Desires, Dark Roast Press, Strict Publishing, Excessica Publishing.
Our website is www.apmiller.weebly.com and if you click on the books it will take you to them all except School of Hard Knocks which is at Strict Publishing.
The books that are going to film will begin with "Beyond the Looking Glass" I am also co-producer with Riwayat Films. (http://www.produceronamission.weebly.com. There you will also see our books going to film.
As far as writing as a team...it's great especially when you have like minds and can feed off of each others writing. We write very similar and have similar ideas, and not to mention we are husband and wife! That makes a difference.
People often ask us if we have disagreements when we write, actually no, we do discuss plots and ideas, but we never argue over what will be done, it's a team effort.
A list or our books:
Lone Huntress: Carnal Desires Publishing
Executive Decisions and School of Hard Knocks: Strict Publishing
Beyond the Looking Glass: Red Rose Publishing
All Hallows Eve: Dark Roast Press
Librarians Dont Get Married and Book of Erotic Tales: Excessica Publishing
Good Guys Deserve Bad Girls: Noble Romance
Andrew and I wanted to thank Kelly and Laurie for having us here and for that awesome review of Librarians Dont Get Married! We definitely have to get together again it's a must! But I will see you both next month?
Thanks for the great interview.
My last erotic tale was After Sunset by Amanda Young
Hi everyone! My last erotica novel was called Taming Him by Kimberly Dean, an anthology of 3 short stories. Steamy steamy, let me tell you!
And speaking of steamy..."Librarians Don't Get Married?" Steam factor of a hundred!!!
