Nicci Haydon is a British erotica and erotic romance writer. Within that category, her stories are wide ranging, covering romance, fantasy, humour, urban and magical settings and including a number of different sexual orientations. Often her fiction is imbued with a very English sense of melancholy and irony, but her love stories invariably end with a note of hope or happiness, even when there isn't a traditional "Happy Ever After".

Nicci has worked as a ghostwriter for hire and as a successful freelance editor and creative assistant, often helping at every stage of the development process. She loves plotting out the highs and lows of a good romance story and seeing the final piece come together.

On Nicci's blog at niccihaydon.com you'll find a vast collection of free stories, some of which are unavailable anywhere else. She's a regular writer of ultra-short fiction that's like knocking back a shot glass - lots of flavour and a quick buzz.
