Write Outside The Box Write Outside The Box: The Golden Cock by Elyzabeth M. VaLey

Thank you for having me at your blog, Xondra!

1. Tell us about your latest release and what inspired you to write it.

My latest release belongs to the Evernight Publishing Naughty Fairy Tale line and is titled The Golden Cock. Based on the Grimm Brother’s Tale of The Golden Goose, it’s the story of a Vincent, a good man that after being subject to the cruelty and ridicule of his brothers receives a kind of compensation that will change his life forever.

I’m a big fairy tale lover so ever since Evernight opened its NFT line I wanted to write something for it. Inspiration struck one evening when I was arranging things in my bedroom and found an old drama script from The Golden Goose. Wouldn’t it be grand if instead of getting stuck to goose feathers people became attached to a cock?

2. When did you start writing and what has your writing journey been like?

I've been writing since forever, but my first contracted piece was a Christmas short story titled The Sweetest Christmas Candy published by the Long and Short of it reviews, back in 2009. After that, I published a few more shorts until my first novella Teaching Alisse was picked up by Silver Publishing, the following year.

Of course, before getting a “yes” I went through a period of constant rejections that had me wondering if I could actually write. The journey has been and continues to be a process of learning and self-improvement in all areas.

3. What advice would you give to aspiring writers looking to break into the business?

Keep writing and don't give up! What's that saying? What's one man's trash is another man's treasure, so just because you get one rejection doesn’t mean your writing is bad.

4. What will readers see next from you?

I have two upcoming releases with Evernight Publishing. Welcome Aboard is a short story that belongs to their Romance on the Go line and should release sometime in March. A Dragon's heart, a demon's blood is my paranormal urban fantasy novel that with a little luck will release in April.

BLURB:

Kind-hearted Vincent Stowe spent years with an inferiority complex until, one day, after accepting to help an older woman with an odd request he receives a life-changing gift.

“Ice Duchess” Brielle is desperate for a solution to her inability to orgasm, so when word about a man with a magical cock reaches her ears, she decides that he just might be what she needs.

Will Vincent’s "Golden Cock" be enough for the "Ice Duchess", or will something else come to play along the way?
