Erotica Blog Day (Yippee!)
Last Tuesday
I spent a few minutes identifying a few blogs I find helpful, supportive,
interesting, etcetera, as a struggling writer and an avid reader. Today (I wish
you could see the big smile I’m sporting) I’m going to list a few blogs I find
a sexy, even raunchy, good time. The below listed blogs are in no particular
order but each is maintained by a writer who dares to dive into the erotica
genre. In addition to the books they write, which they often have to
self-publish, they also run their blogs where they post stories, pictures and
reviews of each other’s work. All the content is titillating, sensual and thought
provoking; the ear marks of good erotica.
Women were ridiculed not thirty years ago for reading “bodice rippers”
(I still have and love mine; there are some very good stories hidden behind
those awful covers). I know from experience the sex scenes in those books were
written intentionally vague and with such flowery descriptions I was often left
wondering if the hero and heroine had
made love at all.
The digital
revolution may be a plague on traditional publishing but it has given women and
men the ability to purchase and read the most sexually graphic literature imaginable
with complete anonymity. The quality of the writing, the editing and the overall
production has improved as supply and demand has required. And finally
erotica has been mainstreamed. I say Amen. Amen!
Without
further gilding the lily and with no more ado, I give to you some of my
favorite erotica blogs*.
*Yes, I know
I’m paraphrasing the character Chaucer in the 2001 movie A Knight’s Tale. I
like that movie. Particularly how the female lead fights against the moral
restraints placed upon women and women alone. And that’s all I have to say about
that. ;-)
Holy cow, Thank you Becky! I'm smack dab in the middle of a bunch of amazing women and authors. I'm humbled to be included at all, but wow to be with these ladies is outstanding! :)
