Bringing men together, one book at a time
The official stuff
Susan writes steamy, sexy and fun contemporary gay romance stories, some suspenseful, some gritty and dark and others that hopefully make you think. She’s also Editor in Chief at Divine Magazine, an online LGBTQ e-zine, and a Charity Board trustee at The Being Me Campaign in London.
Susan attained PAN status with the Romance Writers of America with her first M/M book, Stripped Bare. She’s currently a member of The Society of Authors in the UK and the Authors Guild in the US. She enjoys being a member of Queer Romance Ink, All Author, Book + Main Bites and the Paranormal Romance Guild.
The ‘unofficial’ stuff…
She loves going to the theatre, live music concerts (especially if it’s her man crush Adam Lambert) walks in the countryside, a good G and T, lazing away afternoons reading a good book, and watching re-runs of Silent Witness.
Her chequered past includes stories like being mistaken for a prostitute in the city of Johannesburg, being chased by a rhino on a dusty Kenyan road, getting kicked out of a youth club for being a ‘bad influence’ (she encourages free thinking) and having an aunt who was engaged to Cliff Richard 😊

She has a couple of other roles she performs as well as writing and publishing. Susan is Editor in Chief for Divine Magazine, an entertainment, music and LGBTQ e-zine. She loves being part of the team and getting to meet a load of interesting and often quirky people. If you have a yen to write a few articles for Divine, or perhaps do a guest post for them, please feel free to get in touch at [email protected]. Find out more about what Divine does here.
Due to her belief that everyone should be treated equal, and should be able to be themselves no matter what their differences, Susan is also a Board Trustee for a wonderful charity called The Being Me Campaign. It’s something she has a real passion for, believing that the culture of tolerance and acceptance starts with youth and yet can also be imparted to adults. You can find more about this by clicking on the link. The Being Me Campaign was proud to be the preferred charity for the shiMMer event that took place in July 2017.
SPEAKING APPEARANCES – Ahem. *as she clears her throat*
If you fancy hearing Susan’s dulcet tones, or fancy a laugh, here’s some radio interviews she’s done over the years. You might find them informative, hopefully you’ll have a chuckle or two. The first one is a Benedict Cumberbatch themed conversation between two dyed in the wool Cumberbitches
Southend Radio- Sunday Live with Tracy Cooper. There are two parts to the interview, you can listen below.
Nicholas Downs and Susan also appeared on Wrote Podcast with Baz Collins and Vance Bastian, talking about Sight Unseen and M/M Romance in general. You can listen to this below:

I just finished reading Worth Keeping. I could have read straight through, but tried to prolong my experience with Nick and Owen. I didn’t want to say goodbye. Right away I felt such a connection which had me in tears before I fully understood what they both had been through. I knew I was in for a good read. My tears turned to laughter at their banter. The catching of the smugglers had me in happy tears. This story was so emotional but at the same time enjoyable. It came to an ending all to quickly. I would love to read about them more at a later date. Susan you have become one of my new fav authors and an assured good read. I can’t wait for what’s next.
Hi Angela, thanks so much for those lovely words about my story! I’m so pleased you enjoyed it even it it made you cry 🙂 Sorry about that… I have other books in the M/M genre, if you haven’t read them already. Stripped Bare and Saving Alexander. My next release is 24th February, called ‘Waiting for Rain.’ Thanks again for your comments ♥
