This was a definite tease; I have to find out what happened and who the stranger was. An exciting story and characters to be believed. I want a "taste of this novel.
Avid reader and writer intrigued by sorcery, magic, the supernatural, and the extra ordinary. I am an only child, which explains a lot. We are misunderstood escapists who sculpted our own playmates out of thin air. I still sometimes talk to myself (an old habit from childhood). Music is also a love of mine. I've just completed the first installment in my erotic fantasy series: Taste, which is now available! I am intrigued with writing eclectic erotic literature, so my writing isn't for the faint of heart *wink. I'm here to give and receive constructive criticism.
Praise for TASTE
"In TASTE, B. Sharise Moore soundly establishes herself as a fantasy fiction writer of great depth and talent. She is a rare fantasy fiction writer who masters the complicated rhythm of the genre and taps out her own very special beat." ~Reviewed by *Guest Reviewer A. Kai of The RAWSISTAZ™ Reviewers **A TRR FAVORITE, 5 STARS
"Taste is an example of what happens when masterful writing meets stunning creativity." ~Sonya Renee Taylor, HBO Def Poet/National Individual Poetry Slam Champion Activist and Educator
"Moore created a tasteful, (no pun intended) intimate fable. The character development was beautifully done. If you are looking for an interesting storyline with out of the ordinary characters, B. Sharise Moore's Taste: An Erotic Series is the book to read." ~Jennifer Coissiere APOOO BookClub 4 out of 5 Stars
15.00 USD Purchase the novel on www.blaqmermaidpress.com Love is forbidden. Pleasure reigns. Taste the fantasy.
On Ido, island of Sphinx people, cocooned cities, and Mer Ancestors, love and monogamy are strictly prohibited, physical pleasures abound, and a brewing civil war pits youth and virility against age and experience.
The Ido Youth seek the preservation of Taste, a set of carnal Rites beginning in the 21st year and ending with climax, Enlightenment, and Elderhood. Meanwhile, the Elders vow to obliterate the old traditions in favor of The One Faith, a religion of love, marriage, restraint, and discipline under the direction of a mysterious foreigner known simply as, The Guide.
At the center of the war is Onya, esteemed warrior and daughter of the shrewd Elder General Dame. Though dedicated to both Taste and tradition, she begins to question the very core of her beliefs when she falls in love with Quince, co-General of the Youth Cause. Together they must navigate otherworldly pleasures, the savagery of war, an intrusive religion, and their own forbidden love. Check out the book trailer for my new novel TASTE!
It was early evening as the sunset wrapped its rays around the anxious women. Deepest hues of ebony, coffee, and chestnut blurred with the golden sunlight seeping through the translucent clouds above. Vine City, coveted for its unique beauty, brimmed with a mischievous allure while the waters of the Mer Sea lightly kissed the surrounding shore. From above, the small metropolis was a gathering of peaks stabbing unapologetically at the sky in declaration of its grandeur. T… Continue

I would like to invite you to check out my magazine From A Writers POV. We have a ning network for writers, publishers and any other service for writers and authors.
We are looking for people who are publishers, editors, webdesigners, reviewers, interviewers etc. Anyone that offers a service to writers and authors.
Our members are looking for these specific resources. I thought maybe you would be able to advertise your business and/or service on the ning network.
We have over 100 members and I know you would fit right in.
Do you have a book editor for your new book yet. I offer excellent rates and not only will I edit your book, but I also include a critique/evaluation at no extra charge. Contact me anytime by email at vip_editing@yahoo.com. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon
We have vendor applications loaded onto our page for our next festival. Go to our blog called "Vendor and Sponsorship Opportunities"; it's an attached word document at the bottom of the blog. Hope that you'll choose to come through!!!
Of course not! The show is all about our members and all are invited! BTW - I never received your mini-interview and headshot so you could be featured on the front page. There's still time to get you in, you may be teamed with another writer.
Please do not greet everyone on the site with large images and announcements of your book or business. Yes, you want to tell the world, but learn the fine art of subtlety. A simple welcome and signature/link is fine. Let them ask you for more.
We have lost numerous members because of the amount of 'friend' mail they instantly receive. This Hurts Everyone. Spam is unsolicited advertising, whether it is posted as comments on other members' pages or is emailed for marketing purposes.
Please be considerate. Post your advertisement in the proper Articles/Forum or Group. There are free classifieds on the Pages tab. You can post your information on your profile and even update your blog as often as you like.
We are not into censorship, so please don't make us ask you to leave. Be kind and unselfish - don't spam. SPAMMING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED
You know what is sad in all this, the sentiment on this board is not about wanting to see justice, because frankly those on this board have shown they could care less about facts (not a single person here has seen the court documents of the case oth…
Because Sophia has made false claims! She said she won the case and that turned out to be a flat out lie! Why on earth would be you surprised she is now being scrutinized after misleading many?
Well, that's what THEY are telling us, so we must BELIEVE it! We know this is the whole story, because THEY told us so, why would THEY lie? All of the information received on this case are from 100% accurate, objective and reliable sources, our very…
And you wonder why people view you guys as a fringe nutcase bunch? Sophia was going around purposely MISLEADING people into thinking she "won" the case. There are followers of this woman all over the net, fighting tooth and nail she ACTUALLY won the…
As a journalist, I have been taught to question everything! And it puzzles me as to why African Americans are so quick to question Stewart but not her accusers! So I ask you, how do you know this information is false? Don't respond with a reference…
