Dirty Little Numbers
Dirty Little Numbers, an anthology of flash fiction, is out today, 23rd Oct!
My story, Under Captain Jack, is the opening piece in the book. Kicking off a collection is always a thrill, and being first also means my short short can be read for free on Amazon’s Look Inside Thingy – in less than 2 minutes! (I timed it, and I’m a slow reader.)
This is probably the one and only time Johnny Depp will feature in my work, so do make the most of it. (He’s a bit too skinny and pretty for my taste.)
Under Captain Jack is followed by fic from a range of writers, including Jeremy Edwards, Tamsin Flowers, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Raziel Moore and more, more, more. Some names are new to me, some I’ve known for a while but don’t yet know their work. I’m hugely looking forward to delving in and discovering new writers via bite-sized pieces of hotness.
This is the first time I’ve worked with Go Deeper Press, and I’ve been super-impressed. In the wake of FSOG, I’m enormously grateful to all editors, imprints and writers who are willing to resist the commercial temptation to do romantic billionaire bonking; who are pushing boundaries; and who are motivated by a belief in our genre that’s rooted in its potential for cultural change rather than in its currently fashionable, mainstream kerching!!!!! value.
Check out Go Deeper Press and support the indies!

Kristina Lloyd
I write erotic fiction about sexually submissive women who like it on the dark, dirty and dangerous side. My novels are published by Black Lace (Ebury) and my short stories appear in a range of anthologies, including several “best of” collections, in both the UK and US. I’ve written non-fiction for publications such as The Guardian, The Sunday Times Travel, The International Business Times (God knows how I managed that one), and more.
I’m currently (2018) on a massive erotica-writing hiatus which may turn out to be permanent.
I live in Brighton, a coastal town in the south east of England, often referred to (but never by me) as ‘London-by-the-sea’. Brighton is the setting for my controversial and most popular novel, Asking for Trouble. Check out some reader reviews here.
