I’ve been honored to be included in a number of amazing books, but the acceptance to The Big Book of Orgasms gave me a special thrill. I’ve been a fan of Rachel Kramer Bussel since I first started dipping my toes in the erotica waters so getting to work with her really felt like one of those “I’ve made it” moments. You can read Rachel’s introduction and see the full table of contents on the…

So, I hate to break it to you, but I’ve been keeping secrets. I’ve been working on a project that I’m very excited about and I wanted it to be a surprise, but the process is taking long enough that I thought I’d give you a little taste. The project went something like this: I wrote a dirty story, put together the Naughty Librarian’s Artists Salon, invited artists and models, and then read my story…

I’ve been lucky to be a part of many amazing projects but I’ve got to say, this might be the project I’m most excited about. I’ve been a fan of Lee Moyer’s work for a while and his 2013 literary pin-up calendar is hanging on my wall right now. When he asked me to be the cover girl for the 2014 calendar the offer seemed too good to be true. I couldn’t be happier with…

I’ve been so busy doing all the things I haven’t had time to catch my breath and tell you about them. Here are some highlights: I attended CatalystCon West and had an amazing time. I spent a day in Tristan Taormino’s sex educator boot camp and came out energized and motivated to do more teaching. I attended lots of amazing panels and made new friends and professional contacts. I’m already looking forward to next year’s…

In honor of the reading I’m doing tonight I had bookmarks made to give away. The art was once again done by the incredibly talented Nojitsu. If you can’t make it to the reading tonight and you’d still like a bookmark I’d be happy to send you one! Just send me a message and I’ll put one in the mail to you right away! And if you want to do something for my birthday, a…

Just over a week ago I gave a short reading as part of the anniversary celebration for a local sex-positive multi-use space. (I’ve got a project in the works there that I’ll be telling you more about soon.) Walking into the space one of the first things I saw was the wall filled with work from a local photographer – including two shots he’d done of me. I’ve never seen any of my modeling work…

My fellow smut writer and friend Emily and I are doing a reading on September 13, 2013, at St. Johns Booksellers – a fantastic local bookstore! Emily and I will be reading from the Cleis anthologies we’re included in and perhaps from some other books as well. She and I both have exciting news and publication announcements coming up, so be sure to keep an eye out here and follow Emily on her website. We…

Just a quick announcement today – the cover for Rachel Kramer Bussel’s Big Book of Orgasms is out! This collection contains my story, The Jeffrey Factor. The book comes out in October, but you can pre-order it now! I’m super excited about this collection because I love Rachel’s writing and I’ve wanted to work with her since I started writing in this genre. I’m working on various things behind the scenes and hope to update…

My story, Well Played, from the collection Strummed, is available to be downloaded from Amazon or Smashwords. Your reviews would be greatly appreciated! xoxo, Stella

You’ve heard me talk a lot about the Big Book of Bondage – and that’s because I’m very excited about this collection and absolutely thrilled to be a part of it. Every story is a gem and I’m honored to be keeping such good company. To give you a tease, here’s my review of Lucy Felthouse’s delicious story; Balancing the Books. From the first line of the story, we’re immersed in the world – and…
