Hi, I’m West Thornhill, new author with Silver Publishing. Heck, I’m a first-time published author period. I’ve been writing for years just never had the moxie to attempt to publish anything. I went back to college in 2003 to finish my degree at a small woman’s college. While there, I had planned on obtaining a degree in English Literature but succumbed to the siren’s call of the Classics department. Personally I think Greek and Latin are amazingly fun languages to learn. (I need to brush up on them.)
I started writing M/M erotic romance mainly because that’s what I’d been reading for the last six or seven years and I am a huge fan of Yaoi anime and mange. I love Junjou Romantica and Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi. I attempted to write M/F story but the main characters weren’t working as well as I wanted them too. A minor character, who was very open sexually, started me on the path that became the very first early version of Transcend. Let’s say that the original and the current versions are very, very different.
On my blog I currently have two stories going – Spectral Surprise and Otherworldly Lover. The both have pages so, if you’re interested, you can read them in their entirety. I hope you’ll swing by and check them out as well as take a look at Transcend. Thanks, RJ, for giving the opportunity to play on your blog.
Coming Soon
Fillmore Series: Transcend
When Gael Astley escapes life spent as a sadist's sex slave, his rescuer introduces him to a world he never knew existed. He quickly discovers he has the powers of telepathy and telekinesis, but is confused about what this means for this life. With the help of the one person he knows he can trust, Gael embarks on an intense training regime that ultimately leads to a new career as an agent for Fillmore, a top-secret paranormal group.
Jason Phillips, a member of the Fillmore team, has secrets of his own. Though he tries to keep his distance from Gael, the two men are drawn together like moths to flame. Will Gael overcome his own insecurities and see the possibilities offered or will his past come back to destroy him?
Warnings:
M/M sex, Incest (brother and sister, not shown in detail, and not main characters), Rape (main character in past, secondary character in present) Readers with a history of rape or sexual abuse may find elements of this story disturbing.

details to follow...
In my head…
Fillmore Series: Rediscover plus three others in the series that don’t have titles yet
Rise – the Dragon and the Phoenix – this is a fantasy that I’m working on created from Chinese and Japanese myth
Spectral Surprise & Otherworldly Lover – my blog stories about two enforcers for the Seelie Court
Children of the Fallen: Ethan’s Quest – this is an LGBT YA story (almost half-way completed) and the sequels to this series are still in the planning stages
I have a ghost story I hope to finish this year and a contemporary that’s still in the development phase. I only know who one of the main characters is and he’s been very quiet lately. I’m also working on a super-secret project with two other authors. I’ll post an update on my blog as soon as I’m free to talk about it.

Time to go have a seat and read all about Gael and Jason again. Can't wait to see the changes. Hugs!
