Pepper Pace's Creepy Halloween story written about RJ Cree

 A few years back RJ Cree and I had a bet. I lost and as the loser I had to write an erotic Halloween story about him. In hindsight, I'm happy that I lost because had he written an erotic story about me I fear that I would have ended up doing a table dance in a bar while maniacs slash the other patrons. 

Anyways, as I was a sore loser I turned RJ into a homicidal killer--his weapon of choice--the mighty pen. No worries, though, in reality RJ does not murder people with his stories. 

This Halloween story is scary, sexy, funny but it is also for ADULT readers only.

Enjoy!

Happy 5th Birthday to the blog!



Can you believe that its been five years since I created this blog? I can't! Five years ago I uploaded a story called Juicy to a site called Literotica.com. When the feedback was so positive I wanted more insight into what readers thought I could improve upon in my writings. I wanted to share my writing experience with my readers, and I wanted to know more about the people who read my books. This was the reason I started this blog and why it's entitled Writing Feedback instead of something like 'Hey come buy my books!' This is where I want to interact with friends, fans and readers. 

I wanted to re-post some of my first blog entries. This is the very first blog post I made. And of course I misspelled my own name (smh). Make that 2 capital Ps!

Comments are helpful things...

Thank you all for taking the time to not only read my writings, but then to take the extra step to give me feedback. If you have stumbled upon my blog and haven't yet looked at any of my writings, then visit me at Literotica.com. My pen name is Pepper pace.
Five years ago I was still tentatively taking baby steps to share my writings with the world. I happily did it for free and it took the members of this very same blog to encourage me to publish. Getting me to publish was like pulling teeth! I was all about the idea of writing for the joy of creating and sharing it with like-minded people. I was about knocking down the tired old walls that books seem to get locked into. I was about creating something fresh and new and shocking and exciting. I wanted to be the Quinton Tarrantino of the writing world. And I did not think that it was possible if I was published. Boy was I wrong. I just had to self-publish myself and become my own boss and write what I want instead of what some industry head says I NEED to write. Because of this blog I was encouraged that there were readers out there that wanted my kind of story telling. Thank you! And here is to many more years together.

Just Breathe


A gift is coming just for you

First, let me start off by saying that this is the same blog but with a slightly new look. My eyes are getting too old for the black background :) Anyway, we've been together for a long time and have shared hundreds of posts throughout the years. You have been there for me when things were going bad, when my mom developed cancer, when I had problems handling my depression and many other things that you have no idea that you helped me to cope with. 

I want you to know that I appreciate you.  You are the best fans that a writer can have. I know that I haven't been around much. If you are on facebook then you have probably seen me there or on twitter dropping little comments. But don't worry this place and you guys are still my first loves (MUAH). To prove it this weekend I will give you a little present. No one else gets it but you. 

I'll say more later...

A question from Tumblr

I get many great questions on Tumblr--and some not so great. Here is one that I'd like to share with you. 

Anonymous asked a question

Hi, Its seems to me that there is recurring portrayal of black men in your novels being very negative to the growth and confidence of black women, your descriptions of them are in a sense a caricature of what the media is depicting black men as being right this very minute and honestly it is not helpful and is quite damaging. I enjoy your books but I found this slightly disturbing is this how you see them? Why is that it takes a white man to liberate these women? Please don’t think I am rude it’s just in the society in which we live in and the way black boys and men are being persecuted and are ALL treated like criminal, don’t you think we should be protective of them? I am not black so maybe I am being ignorant but I just wanted your thoughts on the matter.
Pepper's Response:
Not to mince words, I found what your wrote to be offensive—not in the fact that you were frank with your question but that you’ve formed a negative opinion of the black men in my stories and then prescribed your thoughts to me as if I share them.
  I don’t believe that I’ve turned the black men in my stories into ‘caricatures’. In fact the black men who happen to be antagonist within in any given story that I’ve penned are no different than any white antagonist. The relationships that my characters have are no different than the relationships that you, me or any other person might have whether they are black, white or any other race.
  Romance writers (such as myself) write about relationships. Our characters may move from a bad one to a good one—or from the loneliness of having no relationship at all to having someone in your corner. Writing about a broken relationship between two black people is far from ‘suppressing the growth and confidence of the black female lead’. One thing that you should know about my writing is that I mainly write about broken heroes/heroines and although there are at times outside forces that might bring them down, my attempt is to show that when they grow in their own self-confidence then there is NOTHING that can bring them down. In other words, the black men that they may have been involved with didn’t pimp them out, call them bitches and hoes or knock them up and leave them with babies to take care of. The so-called caricatures that you equate to my black male characters happen to just be people who have fallen out of love and have moved on. Period.
  Wide sweeping generalizations such as ‘there is a re-occurring portrayal of black men in your novels being very negative…’ or ‘your descriptions of them are caricatures of what the media is depicting’ are the worst critiques one can give because then I’m forced to venture a guess at instances when you’ve seen these negative aspects in my books.
  Did you not like Ashleigh’s boyfriend D’Angelo from Beast? Did you find that being a ‘kept’ man was a negative portrayal of a black man? Then I’d point out that Ashleigh herself was a self-proclaimed ‘fluffy girl’ that only wanted the handsome man on her arm. Her own shallowness is what caused her pain.
  Or what about The Throwaway Year—two people had fallen out of love and the man was the one who had the guts to walk away first. Anonymous, let me ask you a question. This is a question that you should answer to yourself and not to me. How many white authors have you written to ask why they don’t write stories uplifting the view point of black men in the media? Do you think that is a task only for black writers? Are you asking me to stop writing about black female antagonist and begin to write about black male ones? Are you going to ask author John Greene to stop writing about white people who are clueless about the state of affairs with black men in America? Do you understand why your questions are not just ignorant but racially biased? No?
  If you want to read conscientious books that uplift the state of cultural affairs there are plenty of them out there. I myself write romance stories about black female protagonist who are working hard to fix themselves and finding love along the way. Oh and you asked why does it take a white man to uplift these women. Uhm…because I write interracial love stories. Let’s ask Stephen King why he writes stories that ‘scare’ people because…well it’s scary and the world is scary and why write about scary things?
  Yes I’m picking on you a bit. Mostly because you deserve it for not recognizing that your question in itself was racially insensitive. But also because I have no doubt that you submitted this question solely for the purpose of criticizing me and my stories.
  We’re done here.
