Read my story below on how I went from Homeless to Self-Published

I'm Carissa McIntyre

Also known as Lady Mack, Xo

My name is Carissa McIntyre, also known as Lady Mack Xo, and I am a mid 30's mother of 3 and a self published erotica author, public speaker and workshop facilitator from Peterborough, Ontario Canada.

I started out on this path to becoming an author while homeless, living in the Peterborough Crossroads Women's Shelter with 4 children, one who was not mine, after fleeing a toxic relationship. Writing was all I had. I was depressed, broken, and lost. It was the lowest point in my life, but from that has come something incredible.

My life, my children, myself, we are blossoming, because I found the strength to push forward. Writing CUFFED, my very first erotica novel, publishing it, finally seeing my life long dream come true, it sparked a fire inside of me again. It gave me purpose. It saved me. It gave me passion.

And now, I want to share that passion and purpose with the world, through my writing, my workshops, and my love for life.
