Porn is about the act.
Erotica is about the people who engage in the act.
That includes you. Why not stick around here for a while…
and engage.
Many eyebrows are raised when people first learn that an author writes erotic fiction. I find that moment, whether of intrigue or discomfort, amusing, since we are all sexual beings and, well, sex sells … so it is clearly a subject of interest to many.
I write about sex. But since what I write is erotic fiction and not pornography, my stories are not only about sex… or “the strong pulsations of the body”.
“Whereas men are overwhelmed by the strong pulsations of the body, women remain free to bestow a wider meaning to the corporeal elements of the erotic.”
-F. Gonzalez-Crussi “The Conditions for Seduction, According to an Old Chinese Text,” On the Nature of Things Erotic, Harcourt Brace (1988)
“The erotic does not end in spastic contractions and reflex discharges; it transcends them, to reach into the ethereal realms of memory and feeling, like a note that reverberates long after the string has pulsated.”
-F. Gonzalez-Crussi “The Conditions for Seduction, According to an Old Chinese Text,” On the Nature of Things Erotic, Harcourt Brace (1988)

Love Letters…
I defy you not to squirm and moan right along with Abigail as you read The Mark.
This original and thought-provoking piece of erotic fiction kept me on the edge of my seat and completely spellbound.
An exceptionally erotic trip into the past… the Governor is one hell of a Dom.
