I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

In 2006 I declared myself a writer. Now I'm a writer with a MySpace account. Does that mean I'vearrived? No idea. I do know that it means I have to write another biography/about me blurb,which is one of the most daunting things any author has to face.

That's just my opinion, of course.

My name is Rowan McBride. I write hard to categorize love stories. Yaoi. Urban fantasy. Erotic. Romantic. Science Fiction. Homoerotic. Gay. M/M. Fantasy. Muscle growth.

Ah... Muscle growth. If you know me, you know that's one of my favorites.

If you don't know me, take a look around, and check out at my main website: www.rowanmcbride.com . I hope to see you around.

It's not scientific or anything... I don't think...

Are you a Seme or an Uke?


Opportunist Seme:
Preying on the clueless is what you're all about. You really don't intend to hurt anyone, but if a little harmless manipulation can get you what you want, you're not beyond taking a little advantage of someone, which you figure is an even exchange for your companionship anyway. Not one for lots of drama, you are best paired with the Clueless Uke who will give you what you want and be none the wiser.

Jennifer Crusie is a great writer. Crap.

One of the drawbacks of being a writer is that youre never again able to read for the pure fun of it. No matter the book, a part of you will analyze sentence structure, character growth, plot develop...

Writing as Therapy

Im not one to hash out personal problems with writing. When I was a kid I kept a journal off and on, and one sporadically in college and law school. That was as close as I ever got to consciously try...
