So I am going to be joining the fishtank (a place for people like me looking to get critques and feedback on erotica), thanks to another blogger Marc Nobb (who is also a published author, so yeah I will take his advice). I looked over the site and I think and hope it will be a good fit. I mean, I know what I like to read as a reader, so I am hoping that will translate well when I start writing.
I am also going to have to start a new blog. The horror!! I am so busy, but I think it is what I need. I started a yahoo group, but I don’t like how my story structure came out, no indents, and just plain weird looking. I am looking to come up with a pen name and alter ego for my new blog. Something sassy, sarcastic and sensual (wow I used alliteration!!). While my own Name rocks like no tomorrow, I want something that showcases me and the style of writing I have chosen to write.
I came up with this name Ebonee Blaque, but for some reason I really think it is either already taken, or it sounds like a porn star name. And I can not have a porn sounding name. So I am going to be brainstorming.
Here is a question to you. What would your pen name be? For any genre of writing. I think this will be fun. And this is hoping people read my blog. Why? Cuz I have to stuff to say dammit! So look for my new blog soon. Now I have to think like a Writer. Nice.

Your name as I see it on Twitter is a pretty cool name! I'd suggest using that. Sometimes writers who write m/m erotica go with names that sound male or gender-neutral. Or you could go with something that sounds passionate like "Storm" or "Blaze". Or if you wanted something like "Ebonee" but more realistic, you could go with "Jet". Same meaning and a very cool sound. Good luck! Best, Val at Obsidianbookshelf blog
Ohh I like what you've said and your right, I've noticed that m/m erotica writers do have masculine sounding names, only to be surprised there women. I like the name of your blog and I was playing around with obsidian when I realized I've seen it already. lol And Jet rocks as well. I will think more on pen names as I write words today. =) Thank you!
