Lauren P. Burka writes queer and kinky science fiction and fantasy stories. Her tarot cards told her that she would never hold down a normal job, at least not for long. In her free time she pursues doomed affairs with Oxford commas, and in her next life, she’d like to be Brian Molko’s guitar.
Pronouns: She/Her except on Saturdays and alternate Thursdays.
What People are Saying
“Wishbone is well-written, intensely exciting and realistic BDSM erotica. It may sound weird to some that a book of speculative, erotic fiction could be called realistic… In addition, this book depicts homoeroticism and particular elements of BDSM in a manner which makes them emotionally understandable for anyone.” —Amazon review of Wishbone
“Came for the porn and stayed for the plot. I enjoyed it very much.” —Amazon review of Wishbone
“What really sets Burka aside from other authors in the genre is her wondrous ability to weave a deeply touching love story in the twists and turns of dominance and submission, turning rather extreme bdsm scenes in moments of unbearable tenderness. A journey into unsuspected places of the human soul.” —Amazon review of Wishbone
“The best bdsm stories… no, the best erotic stories I ever read.” —Amazon review of Mate—and More Stories from the Erotic Edge of SF/Fantasy
“It seems to me that Lauren Burka is one of the few writers nowadays who can really tell a love story without pulling punches on the erotic and SM side of the tale. Her books are gutsy, emotional, well written, unusual, brave and just plain lovely. I will care for the characters of Mate and Whiphand for the rest of my days, like old friends.” —Goodreads review of Mate—and More Stories from the Erotic Edge of SF/Fantasy
