Book Description:
A sexy short story trilogy sure to please.
“After a night on the town with friends, Rebecca’s subway-trip-gone-awry leads her to a pleasurable encounter she won’t soon forget. What takes place in a small space, between her and a handsome stranger, will provide her with fond memories on otherwise lonely nights.
Rachel is in a boring relationship and in need of some mutually enjoyable excitement. She’s decided that her battery operated bed buddy isn’t enough for her any longer. When she finds herself on a crowded subway car with an attractive stranger the results are surprisingly explosive.
When twenty-three-year-old Ruby leaves work late one Friday night, she has no idea she would witness a murder on the subway platform. Murderer, Isabella, isn’t about to let Ruby report her to the police so she devices a plan of seduction and manipulation. What follows is an erotic, exhibitionistic subway ride through New York City.”

Let’s Talk About Sex
You may be wondering what terminology to use when writing your erotic stories. Just how “dirty” you want to be is entirely up to you. There’s no hard and fast rule (did you get my double entendre?). Staying in your own comfort zone is usually best. If you’re embarrassed by erotic jargon it’s going to show in your writing.
Consider the following example:
Blake was overcome by his sudden desire to feel Marguerite’s honey colored skin. He spent little time undressing her and caressing her big boobies. Finally, Marguerite was stripped down naked and standing before him. As Blake expertly worked his lips and tongue on Marguerite’s bearded clam his wanger swelled to its full nine inches.
Big boobies? Bearded clam? Wanger? Did you giggle when you read those words? Chances are your readers will too. Unless you’re writing comical erotica (I’m not sure there even is such a thing) you may want to rethink your sexy vocabulary.
There are several websites where you can go to find slang terms for genitalia. But, be aware that many of the lingo is pretty silly stuff. Drawing from your own vocabulary is your best bet. If you find that you’re not comfortable with this you may wish to rethink your desire to write erotica. Amazon.com has a wealth of books to consult. Consider purchasing one to keep nearby when you’re searching for just the right word to use.
Practice your naughty words. Take the above passage and insert your very best dirty words in place of big boobies, bearded clam and wanger.
So You Want to Write Erotica
There’s no denying it, sex sells. If you’re currently a writer you may want to add to your portfolio by including erotic works of fiction. If you’ve haven’t written anything then try erotica as your first piece. I began this blog as a way to help other writers who wish to enter this exciting and rewarding genre.
I could bore you with what erotica is and what it isn’t, but I won’t. One thing you should know is erotica is not equal to porn. Erotica has substance to it, where as the vast majority of porn does not. Porn almost always has no real story line – it gets right to the point. Erotica tells a story with some juicy bits of sensual dialogue, imagery and description. Think of it as a delicious meal. If you rely heavily on the meat and forget about the potatoes your readers will feel cheated.
Most readers of erotica are women – not all of course, but most. Think about what gets your juices flowing. If you don’t have specific experiences to draw from don’t let that discourage you. Let your imagination be your guide. Develop some interesting characters and scenarios.
Chances are you’re writing at a computer and not writing long hand with pen and paper. Just start typing and see where your characters will lead you. If you don’t like it, highlight it and delete it. Simple.
Start with an easy exercise. Develop an interesting character. Give her (or him) a name. Think about what your character does for a living. Is she married? Dating? Write a paragraph describing your character. Describe her clothing, hair, body type, facial features. Allow her to become familiar to you. It’s okay to model your characters after people you know in real life. Just don’t be too specific, you don’t want to offend anyone and you certainly don’t want anyone demanding royalties.
In future posts I’ll be discussing how to choose what terms you’ll use when describing the meat part of your stories. (So remember to follow this blog via email or feed.) This seems to be one of the biggest stumbling blocks for new writers of erotica. Now go and develop your characters and get ready to start writing your erotic stories.
