All right get your heads out of the gutter. I’m not talking about orgasms here. This week’s topic is about story arcs. Most writers plot out their stories with this concept in mind and follow a relatively typical pattern to achieve the common arc. The arc goes something like this: There is a beginning that… Read More Peaking Too Soon…
I was going to talk about this topic last week, but then my subjects got into a “Queen of the Hill” battle and Stereotyping pushed Clits off the hill. One of my earlier blogs was devoted to lesbian sex, so I’ve titled this, Let’s Table About Sex Baby…Part 2. When returning to this subject, my… Read More Let’s Talk About Sex Baby…Part 2
I was going to write about something a lot more fun (the size of a person’s clit and what that means), but this topic surfaced for me, so I had to go there. Don’t worry, I think I will try to write that one next week. Over the last few years, I’ve noticed an increasing… Read More Stereotypes Suck…
I am at that age where I get to claim whatever damn label I want for myself. That hasn’t always been the case for me. This past week, I was binge watching a series called, Dyke Central. That got me to thinking…what do others think about using the word dyke? So, of course, I posted… Read More Dykes R Us
Wow…two blogs in one week. Being a part of a blog tour was super fun, but this topic was just too delicious to pass up. So…this past week there was a Facebook post that got a lot of action regarding detailed descriptors of characters or not – what do readers prefer. That’s a good topic,… Read More Boobs and Bras….
I’d like to introduce Sacchi Green’s short story collection with a very short exploration of irony. I rarely read short stories and almost never buy erotica. Here’s where the irony comes into play. I’ve blogged before about where’s the love for other sub-genres such as sci-fi, fantasy, or honestly anything but traditional romance because selfishly… Read More Sacchi Green Blog Tour-Annette Mori
I quite enjoy analogies. My brain often thinks of analogies. When I hear or read really good ones, I like to share them. My extremely long stretch of not being able to write has continued. Sure, I started adding words to two stories. One was a short story, a dystopian theme, which of course does… Read More Cleaning Up Shit…
I hadn’t really been following the whole scandal with Cris Serruya (ghostwriter for Cris who plagiarized other romance writer’s work) until recently with a brand new piracy site popping up. Here’s what I fail to understand. Why would a writer ever use a ghostwriter? Ghostwriting is such a foreign concept to me. The whole idea… Read More The Underbelly of Writing…
It’s the first day of March and I am reminded of the old saying that, March comes in like a lion and out like a lamb. In my experience, this is never really true. First, the weather is never predictable. A friend of mine who was in the meteorologist business used to say that predicting… Read More Lions and Lambs…
I’ve always known I was a little different. I’m sure that is an experience many of you can relate to. Story after story of what it was like to be a lesbian in middle school and high school are relatively prevalent in lesfic. But, I take that one step further. Within that small community, I… Read More Odd Girl Out…
