Who Is S.L. Carpenter??


I wish I knew. I've been writing romance books for about five or six years now. I tend to add humor to my stories because...life can be pretty damn funny. I'm a typical, testosterone-filled male. I like rock music, a good comedy movie, prefer Pepsi over Coke and drool over artistic pictures of half-or-fully nude women (thanks, Marcus). I write romance/erotic stories because I'm a sucker for a sexy tale, do cover art because I love to create and - to be blunt - love women.

Cluck cluck!

I have a wife (who has me completely pussy-whipped and trained), three kids (who have me wrapped around their little fingers) and a house, mortgage - everything else that the suburbs of California have to offer. I don't have any pictures of myself. I try not to scare off readers. But I'll describe an image for you. Picture Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Antonio Banderas, George Clooney, Matthew McConaughey and all those Chippendale dancer dudes - all rolled up together. You get a big ball of arms and legs all tangled up and sweating.

I don't look like that.

Although I do have a fondness for rubber chickens.



The Secret Link is here. You found it.

Here's some stuff that will tell you all about me. Or sort of tell you about me. Or tell you nothing at all but might make you grin. Who knows? Life's weird that way.

FAVORITE MOVIE
The Fisher King - Robin Williams is so good in this as a crazy man. Hey, I can relate.

FAVORITE ACTOR
See above.

FAVORITE ACTRESS
Lately, Kate Beckinsale. WOW...that leather outfit in "Underworld" and the get-up in "Van Helsing"? Hubba hubba. Uh oh. My wife is throwing frying pans at me now.

FAVORITE TV SHOW
House MD. That dude kicks some serious ass.

FAVORITE MUSIC
All types of music. Music sets my mood and, as Sahara Kelly says, I'm a mood writer. I love good R&B, some jazz and some of the newer country, but I'm a Rocker at heart.

FAVORITE BAND
TOOL.

FAVORITE FOOD
Chinese. It's an aphrodisiac for me. Every time I eat it, I get horny. Of course, I'm always horny so food doesn't really matter.

TURN-ONS
Lingerie. Lace is hot.

TURN-OFFS
Farting in bed during oral sex. Now there's a visual you won't forget for a while!

WHAT IS IMPORTANT TO ME
My family and friends. My wife is the love of my life.

WHAT I HATE
People who are judgmental just "because". Everybody has skeletons in their closets. Nobody is perfect. We've all done things we're not proud of and with any luck we've learned from it. Everyone should be given a chance.
Of course, an asshole is an asshole no matter how you look at them.

WANNA FIND OUT MORE?
Read my stories! How's that for a subtle hint?
You'll find 'em at Ellora's Cave and at Samhain Publishing. One or two may be showing up soon at your local bookstore in print, too. Nice, if you like to hold something in your hands now and again that gives you pleasure. I do. Like a new paperback book with my name on the cover. Or my wife's...umm...nevermind.
