Marc Nobbs

About me:

Hi, I'm Marc Nobbs, a proudly British author of erotica and erotic romance. I have published work at the respected illustrated e-zine Ruthie’s Club, self-published work at Lulu.com, and in 2008, I released two novellas with Phaze books.

I live in the Northamptonshire countryside, just a stone’s throw from where Princess Diana is buried and the Gunpowder Plot was, well, plotted. It’s far cry from my inner-city roots, but that’s what an education does for you.

I work full-time for a firm of solicitors, counting other people's money and wishing that all those zeros represented his own millions. I cry like a baby every time has to write a six figure cheque with someone else’s name on it.

I'm originally from Wolverhampton in the Black Country, and despite having escaped that god-forsaken place, I still lives in hope that I may one day see my beloved Wolves pick up a trophy. (It's a very vain hope) I studied at the University of Wales in Aberystwyth. I'm still not sure how he ended up in Northampton.

I started writing erotica in the late Nineties and I freely admits that what I produced back then was complete and utter tosh. But at least it was hot, sexy tosh. In 2004 I found Desdmona’s Fishtank (where for some obscure reason they still call mr Knobbie). With the help of the wonderful authors I met there, my writing improved by leaps and bounds. Now I have a much better idea what commas are for, understand plot structure and character development and have a panic attack every time I write a passive sentence.

When I'm not writing erotica, reading erotica, or working, I enjoy DIY and gardening (at least, that’s what Mrs Nobbs tells me), and shouting at rubbish footballers who aren’t worth the money they’re paid. I also enjoy beating my father-in-law at chess. My favourite mainstream author is Terry Pratchett.
