Hello everyone, my name is WENDY WOOTTON, but you might know me better as PORTIA DA COSTA, who writes erotic fiction for women, erotic romance and romantic novels,mainly for the pioneering UK imprint BLACK LACE.
I became a writer by mistake really. Some years ago, a friend of mine asked me to write a sexy story so that she could illustrate it, and I thought... No way! Even though I was a voracious reader, I always thought that writing was what 'authors' did, not people like me. Not one to shirk a challenge though, I had a go, and I astounded myself. I produced my first sexy story! It wasn't the one my friend wanted, but one that I enjoyed writing so much that I wanted to write another. And another… And another…
Twenty books and almost 100 stories later, I'm still writing and still loving it. And I can't imagine ever wanting to stop!
2006 has been an exciting year for me. My award winning Black Lace novel THE STRANGER was reprinted in February and in May I had a new title published - ENTERTAINING MR STONE. In July, THE DEVIL INSIDE, another Black Lace title, was reprinted and in December CONTINUUM returns to print too. January 2007 will see a reprint of my paranormal erotica title GOTHIC BLUE, and in June I have another brand new novel coming out called SUITE SEVENTEEN - which is a sort of continuity story associated with ENTERTAINING MR STONE.
