JJ Argus started writing erotica in the 1980s working for Star Distributing, a New York publisher. Argus has also been published by Beeline and Beaver books, and sold short stories to Penthouse, Oui, Nugget, and numerous others. In the 1990s Argus began writing for British publishing houses, which required a decidedly higher level of quality and a lower level of obscenities. Argus has been published repeatedly by Olympia, Silver Moon, Chimera, and Virgin - Nexus. Argus has written and sold over 250 novels, most of which are now available in electronic format.
