ebfaceEDEN BAYLEE

Eden writes erotica, provocative stories incorporating all her favorite things: travel; culture; and sex. Sometimes there’s romance, sometimes not. Sometimes there’s a happy ending, sometimes not. What is consistent are the multi-dimensional characters who grow and change as the stories progress. Sex is the backdrop, but a very important element in their evolution.  She left a long and distinguished career in banking to become a full-time writer.  Her first book, Fall into Winter, a book of four erotic novellas, is currently available via AMAZON, Barnes & Noble, and other sites located on her website.

Ever tried to teach the fish how to read? That’s what I was doing with my books when I was five; it’s one of my earliest memories involving books. Apparently I thought their little fishy mouths working away made them look bored, so instead of reading to them, I popped my entire Peter Rabbit collection right on into the fish tank and started trying to teach them how to read. I’m not sure if they learned anything, but I’m pretty sure that it was a memorable start to my journey into the world of literature, if only for the mess my parents had to clean up afterwards. Since then that journey has taken me to many places, and eventually led here, to the world of writing and publishing. Over the years however, I went from children’s classics to the darker worlds of horror and fantasy. Now my creative world is one filled with blood and pain, with characters that are tortured and tormented and put through hell on the fleeting hope that there might be an end in sight.
